The review says,“Director Arun Anirudhan, best known for writing Minnal Murali, makes an impressive debut full of confidence and swagger. The film co-written with Paulson Skaria may not offer a completely fresh story. Campus politics, festivals, group clashes and friendship dramas are familiar territory. However, what makes Athiradi’s work is his energy, humor and emotional value. Entertainment, entertainment value, emotional.At the same time, the film has its limitations. Athiradi revolves around male friendship and male emotions, and actors like Zarin Shihab and Riya Shibu are left with little to do beyond supporting the heroes.”DISCLAIMER: The box office numbers and data in this article have been collected from public and industry sources.
