Blessy’s ‘Aadujeevitham’ has its moments and gets an A for effort, but given the source, this should have been a far more moving film
Prithviraj Sukumaran shoulders the movie heroically. But the overblown nature of the event-filled narrative never lets us connect with the plight of the protagonist. Seen one way, Aadujeevitham is already the stuff of cinema legend. Benyamin’s book showcased the horrifying story of a Malayali – named Najeeb – who went to Saudi Arabia for one […]

Sajin Shrijith’s review of Blessy’s ‘Aadujeevitham’: A hard-hitting survival drama blessed by a towering performance from Prithviraj
The drastic transformations brought on by weight loss and other external factors that Prithviraj’s character encounters are remarkable, to say the least.
