This movie is not an intellectual's cup of tea, but one of the best emotional dramas in Malayalam. Not sure how many times I have watched it, never gets bored with that.
Currently, Fahad is one of the few young Malayalam actors who can carry a bad film on his shoulders. Like Mamooty and Mohanlal used to do in the 90s. I am not saying that Fahad is in their league. But the guy is charming and always maintains a certain standard. Amala Paul is also excellent and the two of them are a nice couple.
The film itself is like an uninhibited celebration of Malayalai moral repugnance. Innocent plays a role that he could do in his sleep. It is just the old Sathyan Anthikad social drama with a bit of a mysterious plot.
It is mildly amusing at times. But the film falls apart completely in the second half with the flashbacks and looses tempo. If it wasn't for the charm of the lead actors, this film would have been tough to watch.

What starts off with the story of an Indian citizen having a thing for politics and family moves on to become a drama largely based on a girl he finds from nowhere and to state the obvious, falls in love with her. The plot is very familiar where both wait till the end of 150 minutes to finally acknowledge each other of their feelings.
The start is good, where the writers succeed in laying the plan of what to expect in the next 45 minutes. With correct use of humor and Fahadh Faasil's unique delivery, it goes on well creating a fine story. Innocen't character is make-believe and it is through him that the couple meet.
An unwarranted twist just before the interval looked both like a failed writing job and the effect of lack of imagination. This particular twist is so dumb in itself that everything that followed was funny. The drama, the 3 long songs, the boring love conversations and eventually the climax which was so off-blown, I yawned thrice.
It doesn't make much sense; yes, the story is little different in the second half but it lacks credibility. It is only at this time that we understand that the main character is that of Amala Paul's and she is better than her previous stint (Run Babby Run). As a result, the film has no connection whatsoever with the title. Few scenes at the end were totally mind-numbing in terms of logic. Climax was predictable.
It is just a basic, made-up love story. Nothing Indian it it, no!
BOTTOM LINE: Supporting cast is fine and how both the halves have very less coherence with each other plays spoilsport with the experience. Wait for DVD! Watch for the lead pair and their antics, that's it. Couple of funny scenes, too!
