    Fun movie

    I don't understand the hate for this movie. It's funny and doesn't take itself seriously. Although not a masterpiece, it's still a really fun movie to watch. I really like the ending scene when the protagonists enter the office.

    Laugh riot !!

    One of the funniest movies I have seen in recent years. I am a big fan of Mohan Lal but I must admit Mukesh stole the show here. Bhavana did her part effortlessly. I felt this movie is a better version of Kakakuyil (2001), with a different country settings. Mohanlal, Mukesh, Nedumudi Venu started where they left off in the previous movie. Coincidentally "Aliyana" was also the name of the female character there too. Lots of "slap" stick comedy to keep you ROFL. The dialogues were spot on and songs enjoyable. Storyline was engaging and at no time it felt like the plot was dragging on. I would watch this movie again.

    artless yet hilarious fiesta..

    The title is awkwardly lengthy to even say, so is the plot, oh and would dare to say if there ever is a plot in this awkwardly lengthy movie. So goes "Arabiyum Ottakavum P.Madhavan Nairum in Marubhumi kadha", now hows that for a title!! Let's get it straight, this is no cinema which should be considered an art, and if u want to laugh your heart out, this is the way home. And that's where the movie gets its tag as an entertainer, u have some clichéd kidnapping plot, the same old bread winner story where he toils his ass off & finally finds love, the family man in debt crisis and so goes the story which has been told a million times. But oh, wait a second! Dare to miss a movie when it figures Mohanlal & Mukesh. And so what, I never felt being at cinema and laughed my ass off.

    The music was good, the scenes so stealing – that's a guarantee with Priyadarshan movies – with good editing and comical appearances from many actors, that too isn't new in a Priyadarshan movie. Let me reiterate, those who love non-brainy comedies would have loved every bit of it. The working class & family would easily love it, and for the serious movie buffs, 2 hours of enjoyment followed by a review slamming the movie!! Well, I had fun watching it and I should admit as a movie buff, there's nothing in it. ;-) Keep your brain at home and go for this hilarious fiesta.

    once again gives hope to malayalam movies.

    considering the kind of malayalam movies that are releasing these days,this movie gives hope to malayalam movie industry. for the last two years,all the movies that came out was either for the actors marketing or profit. no real story,just cuts and scene filled with slow motions of the actor/actress,well the this movie stands aside from all that. even though this is not the best priyadarshan movie,i'd give it a 7/10.

    this movie's based on an nri(mohanlal)and the things that happening in his life,that gets revolved around many other peoples lives.just like all other priyadarshan movies,filled with comedy,with a descent plot and a story.though the movie is a bit predictable at times,still i enjoyed it.keep your thinking part of your brain at home and go watch this movie,you will enjoy it.
