Pravinkoodu Shappu had a vast amount of pre-release hype. In 2024, almost all the films Basil Joseph was part of were financially successful. The only movie that didn’t live up to the mark was Cup, though even that had an 8.5 IMDb rating. So, in 2025, with his first film of the year, everyone expected another super hit.
However, it unfortunately didn’t live up to the hype. While it wasn’t a complete disaster, the film received generally negative reviews from critics. The audience, however, was a bit more positive towards it. Now that it is coming to OTT, it will reach a wider audience.
