I loved picha vecha nal song a lot. Thattum thattum song was peppy and bala danced very well. Kaane kaane song gives you an adrenaline rush. Rest of the two songs are forgettable. Action scenes are shot in a different camera angle. That's it. Rest of the aspects are not upto the mark. Story has no logic, script is below average, there is no chemistry between lead pair, caricaturish villains, no comedy and lot of over the top heroism you see in tamil and telugu films. At the time of puthiya mugham release, prithviraj gave an interview that malayalees watch allu arjun, mahesh babu, nagarjuna and venkatesh's larger than life films because films like puthiya mukham don't come in malayalam. That's why it looks like some tamil telugu mass film.

Warning: Spoilers
This was a fresh movie from prithviraj who delivers his role as a Brahmin's who studies in engineering college and because of jealousy from Bale ends up beaten when Bale's crush gets closer to him.
The song pitch vetch Nan.... sung by shank mahadevan is such a melodious song, Tatum mu tum song is fun to listen to and choreography looks nice,rehesayamai is OK but location suits the song.
The chemistry between prithviraj and priyamani looks fresh. Bale suits his role and he's gotta change his simple hairstyle and look more stylish if he wants to woo girls in his movies like prithee.
the Brahman girl me era vasudevan(who in her interview once confessed that she had a crush and wanted to marry Tamil actor Surya-yeah right, never happened dear).
I remember priyamani's interview where she said she would choose to work with Robert DE Nero and brad Pitt when she gets her chance.lol.what a joke,you never even stepped in Hollywood yet dear...
jagathi was nice but less space time unfortunately. Prithviraj sung well Kane Kane.... This movie was an attempt to create prithviraj as a mass hero as it worked with the Malayalam audience.They will surely make a remake of this movie either in Tamil,Hindi,Telugu..wait and see
The actions were gravity defying stunts and unbelievable but good cinematography.The only let down was the plot, very predictable.
The scene where he plays tabla on the professor's mike stand was my favourite scene as well as the Brahmin's girl biting his hand(nice romantic scene)for him not to miss her.

It's prithviraj's show

He carried the entire film in his shoulders. Apart from few flaws, it's highly recommended.
Plot:
Krishnakumar, a Brahmin, joins an engineering college in a city. Anjana, a fellow student, falls in love with him, and soon his life takes a turn when her fiance, Sudhi, attacks him out of jealousy.
Positives - Hero, BGM, Songs, Castings
Negatives- Few scenes were somehow artificial and where out of reality.
More info: Puthiya Mukham was a major commercial success at the box office and was noted for making Prithviraj Sukumaran as a superstar in the Malayalam film industry. While the film was dubbed in Tamil with the same name and in Telugu as Yama Mudhuru.
