Story

Vimaanam is based on the incredible life of Saji Thomas, a deaf and mute, who shot to fame by building a lightweight aircraft without the backing of the government or the private sector. Building an aircraft was Saji’s childhood dream and what makes it more inspiring is the fact that he protected his dream and gave life to it despite constant discouragement from family and friends. And in April 2014, he finally and successfully flew his own aircraft at a private flying yard in Ambasamudram in Tamil Nadu, which is owned by SKJ Nair, a retired fighter pilot.

Actors Performance

 As usual, Prithviraj Sukumaran has delivered a wonderful performance, which is the highlight of Vimaanam. Durga Krishna, Alencier Ley, Lena, Sudheer Karamana and Anarkali have done good jobs and their performances are also big assets of the movie.

Technically

 Shehnad Jalal's picturisation is too good.  Gopi Sunder's background score and super special effects are the attractions of this film.

Audience Reviews

I’m not a fan of Prithviraj. But I can say doubtlessly that it’s a must watch Prithviraj movie. Pradeep M Nair done his direction side as a professional. I can’t believe that it’s his debut movie. Congratulations to the team
