'''''Ezhu Sundara Rathrikal''''' (English: ''Seven Beautiful Nights'') is a 2013 [[Malayalam]] [[romantic comedy]] film directed by [[Lal Jose]] and starring [[Dileep (actor)|Dileep]], [[Parvathy Nambiar]], [[Rima Kallingal]] and [[Murali Gopy]]. The film follows a sequence of events that unfolds during a course of seven days and nights of a bridegroom. It depicts how Aby Mathews (Dileep) life is tossed over when he happens to meet his ex-girlfriend once again before his wedding day.

==Plot==
Aby Mathew ([[Dileep]]) is an ad film-maker who is about to marry his model Ann (Parvathy Nambiar). Aby throws a bachelors party for his bunch of friends viz. Abid (Harishree Ashokan), Franco (Tiny Tom), Daisy (Praveena) and a few others just seven days before the marriage. Through Abid, Aby learns of his ex-flame Sini's ([[Rima Kallingal]]) presence in the same city with whom he had a fall-out just a few days before their marriage. An inebriated Aby decides to go to Sini to invite her for his marriage. Sini talks high of her husband Alex (Murli Gopy), a boxer, with whom she has a son as well. Aby also boasts of his fiancée. During this meeting, Aby accidentally leaves his packet of cigarettes behind, which is then taken by Sini's son to school. On discovering the cigarette packet in school, the principal calls Sini and her husband for disciplinary action against their son. Sini however realizes that she cannot go to school with Alex since that would mean telling him about Aby's visit that day which she had kept as a secret from him. Sini therefore pleads to Aby to accompany her to school posing as her husband. Things take an ugly turn when they are seen together by a stranger.

==Reception==

The film received mixed reviews from the critics. [[Sify]] said "Ezhu Sundara Rathrikal gives you the feeling that there is a basic storyline here, which could have been fine as a feel good entertainer, if it was made well. In the current form, all that this confusion drama succeeds in is to leave you more confused".<ref>http://www.sify.com/movies/ezhu-sundara-rathrikal-review-malayalam-pcmbhgggfdaci.html</ref> ''[[The Times of India]]'' rated the film 3/5 and said "Lal Jose intently tries to hold the complexities with a sense of triviality. He does away with tears and piano at times of grave emotional crises and would instead squeeze in cartoonish sequences. The light-hearted treatment works to an extent, but not for long as the narrative is crippled by a sluggishness that results from a poorly conceived script".<ref>http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/entertainment/malayalam/movie-reviews/Ezhu-Sundara-Rathrikal/movie-review/27751741.cms
</ref> [[Filmibeat]] wrote "There are some scenes where you can see the typical Lal Jose touch in the movie. But whether the director have fully succeeded to satisfy the viewers, it's a no. Still, Ezhu Sundara Rathrikal is a feel good movie which has its moments here and there" and rated 3/5.<ref>http://www.filmibeat.com/malayalam/reviews/2013/ezhu-sundara-rathrikal-movie-review-127746.html</ref>
