Ennu Swantham Punyalan Movie Review : Ennu Swantham Punyalan is a quirky concoction of chaos, comedy and charm

What happens when a procrastinating priest, a runaway woman, and a quirky thief are forced to share a room in a sleepy church mansion? Chaos, gossip, and hilarity ensue, of course! Father Thomas, our hero and reluctant man of the cloth, must navigate a storm of misunderstandings and life lessons, all while trying to keep his sanity and save face in the parish.


Ennu Swantham Punyalan is like stepping into a divine sitcom with a side of mischief. Arjun Ashokan as the slippery, quick-witted thief is a hoot—his every smirk and sly glance keeps the energy alive. It’s a role that lets him flex his quirks, and he nails it.




Then there’s Father Thomas, played by Balu Varghese, with just the right amount of exasperated charm. His attempts to juggle holy duties and human drama make you root for him, even as his life spirals into divine disorder. Answara Rajan as the mysterious woman adds just the right touch of intrigue, completing this oddball trio.


Mahesh Madhu’s direction transforms a simple story into a delightful movie with heart. Samji Antony’s writing delivers clever twists, while Sam C.S.’s music keeps the vibes playful. Renadive’s cinematography perfectly balances the serene calm of the church with the unfolding chaos, and Sobin K. Soman’s snappy editing ensures an engaging watch.


The art direction by Appu Marayi and Anees Nadodi gives the church mansion a personality of its own—somewhere between sacred and sitcom-worthy. Akash Manoj’s visual effects add a touch of fantasy to this holy mess.
Ennu Swantham Punyalan is a fantasy ride that keeps its feet firmly planted in human emotions, all while giving us a hilarious peek into the not-so-holy life of a priest with more on his plate than prayers.


On the whole, it’s a quirky concoction of chaos, comedy, and charm. Not saintly enough to preach, but just naughty enough to entertain!
