Reviews
"Vesham" received a mixed to positive reception from critics and audiences alike. On IMDb, the film holds a rating of 6.0/10, reflecting moderate appreciation from viewers. Critics generally praised Mammootty's powerful performance, highlighting his ability to portray complex emotions and command the screen with subtlety and intensity. The Times of India complimented the film's engaging storyline and character-driven narrative, noting that the emotional stakes resonated well with the audience. However, some reviewers pointed out that certain parts of the screenplay felt predictable and could have benefitted from tighter editing. The film's direction by V. M. Vinu was noted for its simplicity but occasionally lacked the finesse that might have lifted the narrative further. According to a review on Rediff.com, "While Vesham is earnest and heartfelt, it occasionally falls into melodramatic traps." Nevertheless, the supporting cast's performances and the film's music were generally well appreciated. Overall, "Vesham" is recognized as a decent family drama that offers emotional depth and strong performances, especially from Mammootty, even if it does not break new ground in storytelling.
