I did not have much expectations about the movie before its release. Same was the case with Monkey Pen. Both films I thought will be 1 week in theatre movies. But the WOM proved I was wrong in both cases.

Anyway coming to the movie I think it is the best satire we are seeing in Malayalam after Pranchiyettan. The movie depicts our current political and common man scenarios very well. It is depicted in an entertaining and at the same time thought provoking manner.

Film deals with the struggle of our hero in setting up and running his company which produces Agarbathis. The hardships he has to face from Devaswon Board, Hartals etc are shown very well. Punyalan Agarbathis is his dream and life. He has an innovative concept to make Agarbathis but struggles big time to get raw materials gets into a fight with a political party which makes his life even more harder. The film shows well that in the current scenario of Kerala it is not Workers or Worker Unions which is the biggest head ache of companies. It is the political system, Hartals etc which forces several losses to the companies. Also the egoistic people on top of several govt bodies like Devaswom. The first half is really entertaining with lot of situational comedies and at the same time sometimes make you feel sorry for our hero who is struggling to keep his company running. 2nd Half continues in the same mode in the beginning but becomes serious as it proceeds. It could make your eyes moist for some time as it turns serious especially when heroes last struggle back fires. Still keeping with the current trend we have a happy ending for the movie.

In this Satire Jayasurya has also used his Road repair episode in Kochi to make fun of the system.

Summary - The movie is another well made satire after Praanchi.

Positives
Jayasurya - Excellent. He has rocked in this character. can be easily told as one of his career best. He has handled Trichur slang also pretty decently. Also he is there in almost all the frames of the movie. We can easily say it is almost a one man show from him and done successfully.
Script and Direction - Really Nice.

Negatives
Nothing much

Crowd Response
People were thoroughly enjoying the movie and I could hear laughters thru out.

Rating - 4 / 5

Final Word - Go for it. It is a well made satire in the league of Sandesham, Praanchi and all.
