Up & Down - Mukalil Oralundu Review

Thampuran (Indrajith), the elevator operator at a posh apartment, runs into trouble when the lift on its way to the 24th floor of the building gets stuck midway with eight passengers in it. That one of the passengers is the City Commissioner of Police (Ganesh Kumar) adds to his woes.
As the lift comes to a smashing halt, one of the passengers, Cherian (Nandu), a Malayali who had been long away in the US, turns claustrophobic. The two couples inside - Christy (Nandu), a wealthy builder and his dancer wife Prasanna (Remya Nambeesan), and a techie (Rejith Menon) and his flirtatious wife Mithra (Sruthi Menon) - develop differences of opinion and literally come to blows
A well renowned writer Edathil (Prathap Pothan) takes it lightly, and settles down to have a gulp of his favorite drink in a corner of the elevator. Shanku (Devaraman), a small boy keeps prodding Thamupran as to where his mother (Meghna Raj) has disappeared after having entrusted him with the lift operator the previous night.
Gradually, the film concerns itself with the mysterious lady who had disappeared into the night, as each of the characters are pulled in and out of her story, as recounted by Thampuran. And when a murder is found to have been committed, the shadow of suspicion falls on each of those trapped inside the elevator.
The basic premise very loosely reminds you of the Hollywood thriller Elevator (2012), but the similarities end there.
