Since time was running out and a train could come on the track any time and crush the body yet again, Dr Biju finally ran across to the first platform, although it was time for his train.

Story: When a girl joins midway through the final academic year in an all-boys mechanical engineering department of an engineering college, all hell breaks loose. The boys are quick to anoint her the ‘mech rani’ and she is only too happy to enjoy the attention. Meanwhile, a one-way love track also develops, parallelly. Review: The arrival of a girl into an all-men world has often been a situation that offers enough fodder for laughs, fun and stories in our movies. Trivandrum Lodge, Ammayane Sathyam, In Harihar Nagar, and more can be lined up, if we think about Mollywood alone. Chunkzz too, borrows this situation and banks on a much-relatable setting for the present day youngsters, a department in an engineering college. The trick here is to bank on it by creating as much situational humour as possible, and showcasing some nostalgic imagery. In the film, ‘Chunk bros’ Romario, Atmaram, Riyas and Yudas are classmates in the mechanical engineering department of a college and they alw...

Clint Story: The film is based on the real life story of the child prodigy Edmund Thomas Clint, who passed away at the age of six, leaving behind a treasure trove of critically acclaimed paintings. Clint Review: Clint lived only for six years, but the little inimitable painter was a phenomenon in the world of art. Director Harikumar’s film, based on the life of the wonder kid, is also the tale of his parents M T Joseph and Chinnamma.
