Aandavan is an Indian Malayalam-language film directed by Akbar Jose and starring Kalabhavan Mani, Sindhu Menon and Jagathy Sreekumar. The film was telecasted on Mazhavil Manorama.[1] [2]
This movie revolves around Aandavan alias Murugan, a thief from the slum of Cochin who robs from a corrupt business tycoon Parameshwara Panicker. Soon, SI Sreerekha is appointed to capture him.
Nowrunning wrote that "Aandavan is as formulaic an action flick as has ever graced the silver screen. It's in reality a series of pointless fights, murders, verbal aggression and plenty of bloodshed frantically on the hunt for an interesting storyline".[3] Indiaglitz wrote that "`Aandavan' is a regular Kalabhavan Mani affair -yet another take which glorify one-man vigilant justice. And as usual with his films, this too remains unsurprising and predictable to the core. In an obvious attempt at making a formulaic masala movie, the creators come up with another that turns out far from satisfactory".[4]
