After all laughter is the best medicine. The average viewer could care less about art and film-making. They need something that would entertain them, so that they could forgot about the real problems in their lives. Dileep to the Malayali audience is what Charlie Chaplin was to the Americans during the teens, 20s, and 30s. Kerala is too developed with the whole mutliplex system as in Hindi cinema and other western countries. That's why movies like City of God aren't doing well. The people in the industry should figure this out to get those niche audience. Dileep is doing his job and people seem to be accepting it. If Adam Sandler and the Coen Brothers could co-exist in Hollywood. It should be possible in Malayalam cinema as well.

Like Dileep, this genre of movies are a new domain for them and they have done a competent job. There are lot of light moments in the movie where Dileep’s comic timing was utilised. This duo has an understanding of state’s political scenario and was able to pen the story and dialogue to adapt to those scenarios. Joshi’s direction is fast paced. He was able to keep this huge cast of characters under control and no one went over board with their performances.

Thomas or Udaykrishna who wrote so many comedies for Dileep and even the sequel for Kilukkam?(In which Priyadarshan is making a cameo) . What about Rafi-Mecartin or director Siddique? Apparently all those people do not exist in Priyadarshan’s world. Following this Patcy asks Priyadarshan if Malamaal Weekly is a copy of Victoria 203 and his reply is: I heard it in my car while listening to the radio. If they ever come to me, I would like to give them a piece of my mind. My story has no connection with that.

Our focus was on that aspect of the team. Regarding the bias of varnachitram, we like to think of ourselves as equal opportunity offenders. Watch this space closely . Jo,
