I am really glad that this gem of a movie has attained a cult status over the years. I had watched this movie twice in theaters during it's initial run and this is the only movie that I have watched twice in theaters. Priyadarshan has always been my favorite malayalam film maker, and I really feel that this film is technically way ahead its time, beautiful locations, music , great performance all over. Best part is that, first half is little story oriented , emotional and second half is pure gem kind of slatptick comedy.
