Absolutely riveting and hard hitting!!!! The slow build up and the twists and turns before revealing the culprit. The movie takes us through the journey of the police personnel spanning several states to find the culprit/s behind the main crime. A Pan india Movie in the real sense. Not like those jarringly loud Idiotically violent over rated movies that just rake in money. Haunting long after you finished watching, for the theme it attempted to convey so realistically. Outstanding acting by Girish kulkarni, Biju menon, and Vineeth Srinivasan. Kudos to the director Sahath Arafeth and the producer Fahad Fazil for this bold attempt. A Must watch!

I'm their quest to show everything as realistic as possible, they absolutely murder all story lines. I am sick of this obsession with being "realistic". If you want to be realistic why don't you just stand outside and watch the road for hours, soak in as much reality as you want. Everyone bashes Bollywood but at least they used to have interesting story lines, nowadays it's all about grim sarcastic faces spreading "reality" in all directions. If you criticise it, then you don't have good taste in art. If your art doesn't interest me then take it elsewhere to your highly "intellectual" admirers.

Malayalam movie Thankam starring Biju Menon, Vineeth Sreenivasan , Girish Kulkarni etc is a good crime drama written by the great Shyam Pushkaran. Movie produced by Bhavana Studios who made some great movies like Joji, Kumbalangi Nights etc . THANKAM is a story of 2 men involved in Gold business in Trissur and they travel to mumbai for gold exchange it leads to crime investigation where the police who is played by the great Girish Kulkarni travels to different states to catch the culprit and tries to resolve the case. Top notch performance by Vineeth and Biju Menon. It's Girish Kulkarni who steals the show . He plays this shrewd police officer and has given his best performance. Good to see the makers have used all languages like hindi, marathi, English, tamil and malayalam instead of forcing to speak malayalam to non mallu actors like Girish Kulkarni and some other tamil actors. It's a slow crime drama with a twist in the climax. The writer smartly kept the climax as open ended so that people can have different perspectives to it.. Watch it to know better #BhavanaStudios #VineethSreenivasan #shyampushkaran #BijuMenon #GirishKulkarni #Unnimaya.

Not too sure what to say...We've always been avid supporters of the producers of this film (Dileesh, Fahad, and Syam) as they never disappoint. Honestly speaking, we don't know what happened with Thankam...The story was astonishingly uneventful and long DELICIOUS -Thankam gave us a good peek into the lives of gold agents, the hardships and dangers that come with the job as well as lack of profitability. -Girish Kulkarni really stood out. He was the joker and mocker, but also the sharp detective who knew when to get serious and be fearless operating in intimidating and unknown territories BLAND -Some aspects of the film didn't quite make sense, e.g. Why didn't the Mumbai police order forensics to take the fingerprints on the padlock used to close Kannan's hotel room in order to quickly identify the suspect? -The film, very regrettably, had nothing to look forward to; our imagination went above and beyond the story trying to come up with some jaw-dropping revelations but in the end, it was a casual investigation that resulted in nothing striking...

Directed by Saheed Arafath starring Vineeth Sreenivasan, Biju Menon , Girish Kulkarni in lead role. A gripping thriller with an unexpected twist. The story tells us about the people in on in the gold business, their stress and strain in executing & what unintentional wrong steps they took which change their life, Thankam displays that grey area of the glitter business which is really not that glittery. When it comes to performance, Vineeth Sreenivasan had done his best. He convincingly performed the character of Kannan the gold agent. His character represents that section of people in this glittery business falls into the traps which proves to be fatal for them. At one point we fells he is a con man but at the end we feel a sympathy towards that character. Biju Menon alias Mathew had beautifully performed. His naive attitude, his innocence, his dialogue delivery in such situations where it is serious but when he delivers in his style, moment of laughter comes up. Girish Kulkarni as shrewd police officer. An another notable performance. A perfect casting for the police officer. Aparna Balamurali doesn't have much to deliver and in her limited presence had give an Ok performance. It was better to cast a heroine who is a beginner so that minimality of the screen presence and the artist carrying that character will be balanced as today especially post the national award scenario, public will expect more from Aparna Balamurali rather than being portrayed as a cameo heroine role. Song restricted to 1 was an another positive factor. Locations were good enough. A crime thriller which takes like a slow train stopping at all stations wherein one by one a mystery is unlocked thereby not loosing the interest of the audience to watch till the end. Overall Thankam ( Gold ) reminds us of one thing " All that glitters are not gold"

It has been an absolute waste of time when the movie end credits roll, and none of the events make any sense to the build up the makers persisted on. The climax was one the absurd climax and it was so easy for the police to get convinced with just one confession from one of the prime suspects, unbelievable! The film started with a song, and that set a very odd precedent to the proceeding. Yet, the makers started off really well even with that setback opening song. The characters were established with a mysterious element in their business affairs. It appeared to me a layered narrative and every other scene was getting more intrigued and intense. It is a slow burner, and I love this genre, I was completely immersed and then the disastrous climax happened spoiling all the charm the screenplay was tightly holding on to. There are no exceptional performances which I was expecting from Biju Menon & Girish Kulkarni. The character played by Vineeth lacked depth, the climax reveals the weakness in the characterisation and plot points. There was a big question in front me, what was the whole point of having an investigation in 3 different states if the police's claims to have tech support in their armour to nail down such cases in no time. The movie also lacked to have elements of gray, everything appeared to be in black or white or gold, leaving me in a state of disbelief to accept the climax, the writers failed to convince me as an audience that this could be relatable, but it's not at all in the world the the makers had invited us to. Watch out for a cameo role by Vicky, that was the only saving grace, indeed a wasted opportunity and that too a golden one!

The first half of the film was highly involving and the making deserves an huge appreciation. The wonderful job on the Music by Bijipal helped as well. I found the second half to be predictable and the story telling lost its pace which it gathered in the first half. Few shorts could have been avoided or bettered. All the casting were perfect. The character done by Biju Menon, Muth was my personal favourite. But at the end of the day you will be thinking about Vineeth's character, Kannan. Thanks to Girish Kulkarni in trusting Working Class Heros, done amazingly well in the role of police officer. Vineeth Thattil's character was the joker in the pack, helped in the narration of the story, had also done an excellent job. Highly recommended to watch in theatres!

Mind-blowing story buildup, acting and the suspense. A must watch!! These kinds of movies are once in a lifetime kinda movies in my opinion. Vineet, Biju (and probably all others) - marvellous natural acting...brilliant would be a understatement!! Oh, the Maharashtra police, girish, wow, equally matched the performances! The Tamil counterparts too, excellent!! A well thought of storyline. Keeps you gripped right from start till the end (and I mean the fag end!!!). I think this has to be one of the best movies of the year, undoubtedly. Not to forget, 'Devi neeye' song, puts the icing on the cake!
