Velakkariyayirunnalum Neeyen Mohavalli Movie Review


Every Malayalam film lover knows that this movie is named after the dialogue by the legendary Jagathy Sreekumar, which he delivered with mastery in the film Melepparambil Aanveedu. The film begins with a tribute to the great actor and his dialogue, but in reality, the very existence of this movie tarnishes his legacy and this dialogue.

With a rag-tag script and story that borrows heavily, and really poorly, from many other movies, the film does not engage or entertain at any point. The director sneaks in some plot points only to forget it in the next scene.

Made at a shoestring budget, this film has Rahul Madhav and newcomer Shravya in the lead with veterans Madhu, Rizabawa and Neena Kurup in supporting roles. While the hero and the seniors try to do justice to their talent, the heroine does not leave a mark at all. This movie is a serious blip in the portfolio of Rahul who is trying to establish himself as a solo hero.

It is surprising that while quality films languish in production hell, such shoddy works get made and manage to get a theatrical release. Better avoid it even if it appears on TV or a streaming platform.
