"Painkili," a 2025 Malayalam rom-com directed by Sreejith Babu and written by Jithu Madhavan, stars Sajin Gopu and Anaswara Rajan. The film follows Suku, a quirky shopkeeper faking insanity to dodge legal trouble, and Sheeba, a girl desperate to escape an arranged marriage. Sajin Gopu shines with his energetic, over-the-top performance, while Anaswara struggles with the comedic tone. The first half delivers sporadic laughs with its eccentric humor, but the screenplay falters in the second, lacking coherence and emotional depth. Justin Varghese’s music adds flair, yet "Painkili" remains a mixed bag—fun but forgettable. Rating: 3/5.
