Key beats:
Kannan comes from a modest family. His father Babu (Guru Somasundaram) and mother Rosly (Thushara Pillai) support him.
He has a friend Bineesh (Karthik Vishnu) and faces school life, dreams, romance (with Anna, played by Riya Shibu) and sporting ambitions.
He aspires to win the district badminton championship and then progress further.
long the way: familial pressures, social/family dynamics, a coach enters (Namitha Pramod plays a badminton coach) and there are obstacles — both in sport and personal life.
Ultimately it builds to the sporting climax — the attempt to lift the “cup”.
Final Thoughts
Cup is a decent attempt at a feel-good sports drama with rural Indian flavour and youthful lead, but falls short of being memorable due to writing and pacing issues. If you’re a fan of the cast or just want a family-friendly film with some sport and romance, it may serve the purpose. But if you’re looking for top-tier sports drama with high tension and innovation, you might be disappointed.
