The film is based on true events that he had heard about a rebel student in Munnar, happening during the 1980s. Good cinematography. Speaking of the cast, all actors do their parts well, even though GV Prakash Kumar misses the mark when it comes to a crucial breakdown scene. Mamitha Baiju is good in whatever little role she has been given. Like her last film Premalu, there's also a professor character played by Karunas in Rebel, who plays a key role in the narrative. The characterization of the professor is truly sublime, probably the best in this film.
Directed by debutante Nikesh RS, has put a great effort.
