Unni Mukundan's latest Malayalam film, Jai Ganesh, hits a major milestone on Manorama Max. The fantasy thriller is the most streamed Malayalam film on the popular online platform. The film is a superhero picture that combines parts of realism and imagination.

Although it did not shatter records at the box office like the two other Vishu films, Varshangalkku Shesham and Aaavesham, it was well received by critics and had a solid three-week run after its theatrical debut. It is the first Vishu release of the year to be released digitally. Those who were unable to see the movie in theatres were excitedly anticipating its digital release in May.

What is Jai Ganesh all about?

The film revolves around the life of gifted graphic artist Ganesh (Unni Mukundan), who suffers an accident that leaves him disabled below the waist. His life is completely upended when Ayan, Ganesh's close friend and the son of MLA Prakash Puthran, is abducted by an unknown assailant. The narrative's main topic is how Ganesh uses his abilities to expose the plot around Ayan's kidnapping.

It was hailed as an engaging thriller that, for the most part, keeps you fascinated. It was entertaining to watch as well, thanks to Unni Mukundan's outstanding performance and Ranjith's deft storytelling technique, which captured an audience of all ages. Even though the movie is short—two hours and five minutes—it moves quickly and is quite engaging.

Ranjith Sankar wrote the screenplay and directed this mystery thriller. Dreams n Beyond and Unni Mukundan Films are the film's producers. The supporting cast members include Ashokan, Jomol, and Mahima Nambiar.
