Vijay Superum Pournamiyum

"Vijay Superum, Pournamiyum" Malayalam movie. Romantic story played in the tune of comedy.

Even though, this is a remake of box office hit Telugu movie, it has been well garnished, as for the taste of 'Mallu-palates'. Story is of the shy, innocent, confused,B.Tech educated hero and MBA educated hyper-enthusiastic heroine who is out start a successful business ... their paths crossed due to a string of accidental incidents and happenings thereafter. For Asif Ali, this role is tailor-made, he has done similar roles before. Aiswarya Lakshmi as the lady lead is smart and takes the story forwards, well. Script original Telugu, but screenplay and dialogues are local-above par and one liners are excellent. 8 on 10 for this comedy presentation, comical dialogues and advices are contemporary and socially valuable. At times, the situations and dialogues may give you a 'deja vu' feeling (similar scenes in other movies)... think again, in a similar situation, even we would have used the similar words. First half was slow, but comedy kept entertaining, later part is more serious stuff with lesser dose of comedy. Director has done well as in his previous outings. Music is commendable.

Content in this movie is interesting. Though one may not find a clear cut story, this is actually a collecrion of many realities. I do appreciate the direction and the casting. Good job!

Directed by Jis Joy, this is a good one time watch movie. An accidental pennukanal at the wrong house where the prospective bride and groom gets locked in a room, results in a long conversation. Conversation in which it is clear that he is talented but aimless and disorganized. And she is focused and disciplined. So bring them together, and it's the perfect business. Of good food and good music on wheels. Fun to watch Renji Panicker and Siddique as respective supportive dads. Darshana Rajendran was really good as supporting actress. Chitra has a short but beautiful role, just lovely to hear her sing on the streets.

Vijay superum pournamiyum is a good comedy-drama and is a definite one time watch, but with flaws.

First of all the story line was pretty good for a movie of this genre (even though it's a remake) and the progression of the plot is also actually pretty good until when it comes to the end of the movie where its quality drops. The dialogues were good as well. But many comedy scenes and one-liners were not really that funny, but still it was decent.

The performances from the cast are good as well. Asif Ali and Aishwarya Lekshmi did a decent job with the characters (though not the best of performances) and most others did fine as well (Siddique was good as always). But I was not convinced with performance of Renji Panicker especially with his comedy part. He was not that funny. The role was not apt for him.

I don't understand why Joseph Annamakutty Jose was cast in this movie. He definitely has nothing at all to do and just has minimal dialogues and screen presence. Balu Varghese was more than enough as a supporting cast to Asif and casting of Joseph was unnecessary.

Again when the story reaches the climax, the presentation was not that good and dialogues became over dramatic at times. The presentation of the climax could have been made simpler rather than including complex scenarios and over dramatic dialogues. (The radio interview scenes)

Again the bgm thoughout the movie was just SO overused and was just irritating at times.

Overall, it is a good movie in the comedy-drama genre. Who can watch: People who love simple yet emotional 'feel good' movies can definitely go for this one.

Actors give life to this movie. Especially Aiswarya. Such a natural acting. We can't say she is acting.
