Prithviraj Sukumaran leads *Khalifa*, a high-octane gold-smuggling saga. While director Vysakh delivers massive visual scale and star power, the plot remains predictable and thin. Despite pacing issues, Mohanlal’s electrifying special appearance steals the show. It’s a bold, stylish commercial entertainer for fans of mass cinema, though it prioritizes flashy spectacle over a truly original, gripping narrative journey.
