I'm composing this article after watching one of the most amazing endurance thrill ride motion pictures at any point taken in Malayalam films. This film is a combination of dread, kinship, chilling truth, and trust. This film depends on a genuine occurrence that occurred in 2006.

The fundamental plot of the film is that a crew of friends(Manjummel boys) go out traveling to Kodaikanal situated in Tamil Nadu, after getting desirous by seeing their opponent pack go out traveling to Munnar. They partake in the excellence of nature very much like some other tourist until they choose to visit the Guna caves(a place of interest in Kodaikanal) where Kamal Hasan's blockbuster film Guna was shot in 1990. What occurred there? the film discusses all that happened to them in the wake of entering the caverns.

This film begins with Illaiyaraja's iconic tune ''Kanmani Anbodu Kadhalan" from the film Guna and the film group utilizes this melody toward the finish of the film carrying tears to the eyes of the crowd by leaving an enduring effect. It is appreciatable that director Chidambaram took very little time to connect with the crowd in the film. The film launches when the Manjummel young men see the photograph collection of their opponent pack going out traveling to Munnar. Afterward, everyone of the companions chooses to go out traveling to Goa, yet ultimately decreases their visit objective to Kodaikanal. The young men had an excellent time there until they chose to look for more experience in Kodaikanal by entering the Guna caves. Chuckling reverberations in the caverns until one critical step leads to chilling truth: Satan's kitchen immerses all who fall into it. Dread assumes control over them, despair the trepidation, however the bond, a light in the midst of the sadness touches off a stunning salvage mission.

This film is a genuine instance of holding narrating, great composition, dazzling cinematography, astounding altering, and splendid ambient sound. At the point when we discuss the entertainers in the film, everybody sparkles particularly Sounbin Shabir( as the protecting companion) and Sreenath Bhasi(as the caught companion). The cosmetics group showed their best in the last part by changing Bhasi. Vivek Harshan ought to get extraordinary commendation for his inconceivable alters. The manner in which he mixes Bhasi's cavern scene with his cherished recollections is astounding.

Illayaraja's famous melody was utilized to display love in Kamal Hasan's film Guna, yet a similar tune was utilized in this film to communicate fellowship which conveyed a punch of feeling in the crowd.

At long last, this film is a masterfully created film with a rollercoaster of feelings and a story of kinship. This film is a flat-out treat for each and every individual who loves to watch survival and thriller motion pictures. This film is energetically prescribed to be watched on a big screen.

About Devil's Kitchen aka Guna Caves:

The Guna caves in Kodaikanal are made up of pillar-shaped boulders that emerge from the cliff's face. The shola trees cover the entire cliff. This location was first discovered in 1821 by a British officer by the name of B. S. Ward. Based on their analysis, they proposed that the Pandavas' kitchen was located in the caverns. Regarding the term "devil," there's no precise definition. People used the term "devil" to refer to the belief that evil was indicated by the darkness and the presence of bats within the caverns. Ultimately, the combination of these two led to the naming of the Devil's Kitchen. There is no shortage of adventure or danger in this place.

Following the release of the Guna movie in the year 1991, this place was widely called Guna Caves, which was also later accepted by the government of Tamilnadu.
