Poochakkoru Mookkuthi

Everything about this movie is fantastic: the script, the acting, the story. It was even remade in Hindi (called 'Hungama') in 2003 and directed by Priyadarshan himself.

It was remade scene for scene. For those seeing the Hindi version first would enjoy the clever storyline and performances. Akshaye Khanna and Paresh Rawal are good.

HOWEVER, the Malayalam version is far, far better! It's got a star cast: Mohanlal, Menaka, Jagathi Sreekumar, Sukumari, Nedumudi Venu. Not to mention all the other side actors! It's too good!

The songs are catchy. The climax has got to be one of the funniest ever.

I believe this was Priyadarshan's first film. Don't miss this one - even if you have seen the Hindi version!

Excellent slap stick movie, Dialogues and acting is superb. Clean as a whistle too.

This is one of my favourite malayalam comedy movies. Good comic timing by all the actors in this movie. Somehow could not appreciate the Hindi version Hungama. Any malayalees who have see Hungama, but not the malaylam version, then it is highly recommended to see this original version.

Sukumari, Nedumudi Venu, Shankar, Mohan Lal, Sreenivasan, Kudravattu Pappu, Soman and others all have done an excellent job of playing their characters to the hilt.

Its a comedy of errors and with multiple plots.

Watch this version to roll with laughter.

After watching the hindi remake of this movie "Hungama". I watched this movie. Generally liked it but wrong casting in this movie leaps to mind. Nadumudi Venu in reality was 8 years younger than Sukumari. 43 year old Soman looking even older, plays a young man looking to marry a young woman. Even worse 48 year old Kuthiravattam Pappu is a contender to marry 21 year old Menaka. All this mis casting gave the movie an awkward look. Mohanlal and Soman were wasted in their roles. Priyadarshan could have found more suitable casting to make the plot more attractive. He however ironed out all his mistakes in the Hindi remake so it was way more funnier.
