Set in a rural background, the film captures the novelties of a typical matrilineal Kerala family and the imaginations of an ignored adolescent mind bereft of companionship. MT has truly weaved the power of imagination into a folklore coming to life and manifesting in the seemingly mundane lives of people. Be it Janakikkutty, the friendly yakshi, or muthasshi, the film doesn't cease to entertain and keeps audience on the edge. No melodrama or unnecessary effects like in usual horror stories, the movie is humble yet assertive in delivering a story and screenplay that brings nostalgia and relates with the audience of all age groups. 20+ years since its release, that is the reason it stays evergreen.
