Fun fact: This film is a full-length movie filmed in one long take. The director, Don Palathara, placed the camera in front of the car so that the focus is on the characters.
The film introduces Rima Kallingal’s and Jitin Puthanchery ‘s characters as a live-in couple. Their parents aren’t aware of this. Santhoshathinte Onnam Rahasyam is all about the heated conversations between them in the car about a ‘situation’. We also see how external (invisible) characters play a role in making their conversation more complicated. Do keep a lookout on Neeraja Rajendran who plays a pivotal character in the movie.
