“Kaathal, The Core is such a tender and loving ode to love itself. Mammootty is truly having a moment in his vast filmography. What a beautiful performance from one of our absolute best. Jyothika plays a difficult part with such honesty and empathy she moves you. Must see her more often. Great ensemble. What a director Jeo Baby is. So much to learn,” he wrote on X.
