Chotta Mumbai


I saw this movie this weekend and had a good time. It has been a while since I saw a Mohanlal movie and this one was certainly entertaining. Manianpilla Raju has produced this film and has played a small role in it as well. But credit must go to him for experimenting a new style of movie making in Malayalam. The film looks technically brilliant for a mallu movie standard.

The characterisations have been near perfect with Mohanlal essaying a chotta don kind of a role to perfection and his sidies played by Indrajith, Sidique and the comedian dude(don't know his name) and the youngster (again don't know his name) played a near perfect act. Sai kumar as Mohanlal's father has excelled and Rajan P Dev as the fultoo drunkard is again a decent role. Bhavana as the brave rickshaw driver is also classy and so does Kalabhavan Mani in the villain role.

Comedy is the main theme that carries as an otherwise thin story line which has been executed by Anwar Rasheed. It is definitely worth a watch.
