Summary
A man named Melvin is arrested by the Commissioner Sreebala and Asst. Commissioner Xylex regarding the abduction of actress Uma Satyamoorthi. Melvin is a man with psychological issues and admits that he is the one who killed Uma and his own wife Sherin. While trying to retrieve the body, Melvin couldn’t exactly remember where he buried it.
As time goes by, Sreebala and Xylex find out shocking things about Melvin that turns the table over revealing a lot of new things.
Review
Rajesh Pillai must be appreciated for choosing an actor like Kunchacko Boban who was known for his chocolate boy roles to play the character of Melvin. This choice made by Rajesh Pillai later made Kunchacko appear in various other thrillers in Malayalam Cinema.
Kunchacko Boban as Melvin did an exceptional job onscreen. That haunting smile he had throughout the movie won’t be forgotten that easily. Equal screen space was provided to Manju Warrier and Indrajith Sukumaran and both did their roles well.
The story from start to end never loses its pace and Shaan Rahman’s music gives that extra edge of goosebumps throughout.
Conclusion
A must watch for those who are into crime thrillers.
Verdict
Just Go For It.
