Shon Joy

Alappuzha Gymkhana (2025) dives straight into the buzzing heart of Kerala’s backwaters, where tradition’s always butting heads with ambition, and yeah, sometimes that's messy. The story orbits around Shon Joy’s character—he’s not your typical hero, more like the guy who’s always got one foot in, one foot out of trouble. The Gymkhana club, the kind of place where everyone knows your business before you do, becomes ground zero for some serious drama. It’s not just about sports or winning matches—though, trust me, there’s plenty of sweat and bruises—it’s about what happens when old-school loyalty gets tangled up with new dreams. The club’s basically this motley crew: young guns desperate to prove themselves, old-timers clinging to the good ol’ days, and a few wildcard characters who are just there to stir the pot. You start to see how everyone’s fighting their own battle, whether it’s family pressure, broken promises, or the simple urge to break free from small-town expectations. The town itself almost feels like a character, with gossip flying thicker than the monsoon rain. There’s rivalry, heartbreak, a couple of major screw-ups, and even moments where you’re just rooting for these underdogs to catch a break. By the end, you’re left wondering if winning really matters, or if it’s just about finding your tribe and backing each other up, no matter what the scoreboard says.
