Manjummel Boys story (no spoilers)
Manjummel Boys follows a group of lifelong friends—Siju 'Kuttan' David, Subash, Sixen John, Krishnakumar 'Kannan', Siju John, Sudheesh, Anil and Sujith—whose carefree vacation takes a dangerous turn. Deep within the Guna Caves, one of them becomes trapped in a notoriously perilous, uncharted abyss. What begins as a light-hearted trip becomes a desperate race against time as the friends must unite to save their own. The film blends adventure, thriller and drama, moving from easy-going camaraderie to tense, high-stakes rescue efforts. Chidambaram directs this Malayalam film, which also includes Tamil dialogue, and Sushin Shyam provides the music. At 135 minutes, the story stays focused on the group's bond and the daunting challenge posed by the cave. The tone shifts from relaxed holiday vibes to urgent, suspenseful determination, keeping the emphasis on friendship and survival without giving away the outcome.

Our verdict
Manjummel Boys takes a simple vacation premise and turns it into a tense rescue story anchored by Soubin Shahir and Sreenath Bhasi. Chidambaram keeps the focus on the group's bond, and Sushin Shyam's music supports the shift from carefree to desperate.
