I remember how, after watching the Malayalam classic - Punjabi House, my friends and I spoke to each other in 'Jabba...Jabbas' for a whole day (the movie had been about a deaf and mute couple falling in love).
And perhaps the only reason you hear so little about this movie (Vaaya Moodi Pesavum / Samsaram Arogyathinu Hanikaram) is because the second half, which is reminiscent of the Charlie Chaplin silent movies of old, quite simply leaves the audience speechless.
The plot is silly and a bit predictable, but that's exactly what makes this satire worthwhile. Was there a message in there somewhere? Maybe, but director Balaji Mohan delivers it subtly and at no time does the movie or its characters feel preachy.
The movie might not be a critics' favorite, but its good, harmless fun.

I watched this movie 8 years after its release, it is mind-blowing how the movie captured every aspect of life during the COVID-19 pandemic before it even happened! The comedy by Pandiarajan and Robo Shankar is absolutely hilarious. Madhubala playing the role of a patient and wise step-mother was refreshing! The movie highlights the role of positive thinking and acting with only the best intentions and without expectations, something which our current fragmented society needs to hear more and more. The scenic locations of this movie shot largely in Ooty adds an aesthetic element to this movie as well. Highly recommended!
I had kept this aside because I thought this would be a flop. But as a good friend suggested, while watching this I felt how ignorant I was. This is a good mix of many things. It's fun, heart warming and thought provoking. Mostly the balance of everything here make us keep watching. I'm some scenes I thought the directions might go over in seconds. But it didn't and kept the flow in the desired path.
Enjoyed every minute of this. And the gun fight itself is enough to tell someone how a good comedy is done.

The film's plot was itself is different for kollywood. Especially the way they pulled the second half after the town is under a lockdown was very good. Dulquer Salman, Nazriya, Robo Shankar, Madhu were very good in their roles. Balaji Mohan as news anchor was really good comedic relief. But when the film nears climax, it becomes laggy and slow. The movie is about importance of communication and how we should use the gift of communication properly and the director manages to channel that message to the audience in a non preachy way. Dulquer - Nazriya love track was not that impactful, the movie would've been the same even if they were shown as friends. Sean Roldan's score was really good. Kadhal Ara Onnu Vizundhuchu was really a good song with great visuals. Other than that no songs stay in mind. Since the flim was shot in a hill station, cinematography did justice to the Balaji Mohan's vision. The movie was technically brilliant. Art direction, Music, cinematography, casting, editing was all good. Lastly, Balaji Mohan has once again made a comedy film with a social message but compared to Kadhalil sodhapuvadhu eppadi this film was less interesting.
