Kalyana Raman Malayalam Movie
Shafi's Christmas release Kalyanaraman, a hilarious laugh riot.
The film starts with a 78 year old Ramankutty (Dileep) telling his story in a flashback to his grandchildren. He belonged to a family who were wedding planners who arranges everything that goes into a wedding like erecting pandals, decorating the house, arranging musicians, generatorr, cars and even cooking for the wedding party! During one such wedding at the Ambadi Thampi's house where Ramankutty is in charge of all the departments, the marriage gets cancelled in the last minute. The reason was that the groom refuses to tie the knot, as the bride was dumb.
But a good man at heart, Ramankutty asks his brother who is a doctor to marry the helpless girl. But soon Ramankutty falls in love with the girl's sister Gowri (Navya Nair), but she pretends to be in love with her uncle's son (Boban Kunchakko), a pop-singer in Bangalore. But later Ramankutty learns that Gowri loves him, but Thampi feels that the women in Ramankutty's family die at a very young age and so he is against their wedding. How Ramankutty marries Gowri against all odds and live to tell their grandchildren about their love story, forms the rest of the story.
The story is wafer thin and has been made keeping Dileep's current image in mind. Anyways the film is all fun 'n' frolic as director Shafi and script writer Benny P. Nairambalam could have made it a whole lot more cherishable as simplicity is forsaken for chaos. Dileep is superb and Navya Nair is improving with every film.
