Nearly everything that Mandharam (a type of flower) projects as traits of a romantic relationship is wrong or vile or both. For instance, there's a scene where a man takes a female friend to a temple and tries to marry her by forcibly putting a sacred thread (thaali) around her neck. What's more? The movie takes a hard turn sometime in the last 30 minutes and tries to exonerate the lead guy's mistakes by projecting them as his eternal love, while also giving Anarkali Marikar some screen space since Aanandam (2016). Avoid at all costs. TN.
