A story that personifies village life. Let me not talk about the story in the movie but rather give you an idea of it. This is a very complex movie to express in words.. but an easy one to watch !! Simple yet entertaining. All the characters are played well and are realistic. People helping each other, neighbours envious of each other, gulf malayali all make up various character types. The central character of "Thattan Bhaskaran" is played by sreenivasan here.. a simple goldsmith who is in love with the girl next door Urvashi. He is prepared to go to any extent to marry her.. which kind of offsets his life ! Sreenivasan himself scripts the movie. He initially wanted Mohan lal to play the goldsmith but later was convinced by the director Satyan anthikad that lal would add too much weight to the simple character and that he himself should play the character. A special mention goes out to Jagathy sreekumar the Vellichappad.... who is really amazing in this movie. This movie has lot of side characters who give commendable performances and also leave us rib-tickled :)))) - Mamkukhoya, Shankaradi, Oduvil Unnikrishnan, KPAC Lalitha.

The movie portrays jayaram as a common man with aspirations. This is a emotional flick which portrays a good man with greed for money.

Jayaram runs a cable TV franchisee having big ambitions. To raise the money to buy a fishing boat he married Kaniha, it later turns out that Kanhiha's father Venu Nagavally was not able to keep his promise to give the dowry on time.

The film shows how dowry is still evident in the society and how people must work to eradicate this social evil.

The songs are OK. The name suits well with the story of the film.

Even though Bhagyadevatha is a regular film from director Sathyan Anthikad, the subject is well handled and the message delivered without preaching. Sathyan was able to gift what people are expecting from him. Bhagyadevatha is a film you can watch with family. Don't expect the old satyan magic.. but still enjoyable

OK we have seen devdas, we know the story why watch this ??? Important Question!! I went with the expectation of seeing a stylish obnoxious devdas and glad to tell u i got it :)). People with a good humor sense will love it. The movie is on similar lines to Sharath chandra's novel where the protagonist has broken relations with his father and is sent to London for higher studies. He is in constant touch with his childhood love paro, with whom he keeps contact through modern communication mechanisms Phone and internet! Trust is very important in any relation, which eventually is breached when dev hears some stories. From now he becomes the real devdas, Smoking coke, drinking Vodka and then Chandramukhi ! Overall a great performance by dev ( Abhay Deol ) and Paro. I would say chanda was not bad too. The dark humor in the movie is brilliant. There are a lot of humorous moments including a scene where dad tells devdas that paro was yours @ paro's wedding ! How chanda becomes a so called " commercial sex worker" and also the BMW Incident. Wonderfully blended into the movie. Well done anurag 9/10 for the script and 8/10 for the direction !! I travelled 30 kms to watch this movie because didn't' get tickets at multiplex near my house. Anywayz no regrets
