Director Jithu Joseph is bring another family movie with Kunchacko Boban, Archana Kavi, Mukesh, Lalu Alex, Urvashi, Shari, Janardhanan, Anoop Menon.

World over malayalees life is getting a make over due to the influence of tv programes. That is the same reason why this movie may become a success.

The film talks about the generation gap between a teenager and her mother portrayed by Archana Kavi and Urvasi, respectively.

Teenage daughter is fed up with the mothers over protection attitude towards her. Father played by Mukesh has to bear the burnt of this, as he fails to bridge the gap between them.

And there is Jewel’s young brother who tries to spy on her; Rahul (Kunchako Boban), son of Joseph’s childhood friend (Lalu Alex), who acts as Jewel’s local guardian and secretly likes her. The twist in the tale comes, when the bad guys in college try to get even with Jewel and Rahul saves her.

The cast saves the movie from being a total disaster. Urvasi performs excellent as over protective mother of the daughet. I saw one of her inerview where she speaks like a dumb girl. She has screen presence, but needs to hone down the histrionics. Kunchako Boban shaves off his moustache to look like a college student and succeeds in doing so to a large extent. Mukesh and Lalu alex are just part of the movie.

This movie is getting ample attention and is is going to be another successfull in Malayalam as the subject and the presentation is loved by the malayalee family world wide. The society is looking for such good movies rather than purely commercial cinema.

It is the second movie for the director Jeethu Joseph with different subject than the first one. A little subtlety would have worked wonders.
