Review:

The strength of the film is its relatable portrayal of college life. Friendship, first flushes of love, heartbreak and awkward adolescence are all portrayed with authenticity. Hesham Abdul Wahab’s soundtrack complements the narrative beautifully.

A mix of performances

Pranav Mohanlal improved from his previous works but some critics felt that his performance could have been more strong. Darshan Rajendran and Kalyani Priyadarshan gave strong performances as heroines in Arun’s life.

Length can be a hindrance

After about three hours, some viewers may have a slightly slower heart rate. The use of multiple songs, while contributing to the homely atmosphere, may seem overwhelming to others.

Overall, a good watch

Despite its minor flaws, Hridayam is a heartwarming and entertaining film. This is a movie that anyone who is in college and dealing with the challenges of growing up can relate to.
