All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.

It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

One of the best scripts by MT. Very good direction by Hariharan sir. I was a little sad to see that it only had a 7.1 rating whereas movies like kuch kuch hota hain and kabhi khushi kabhi gham have even more. Its really sad. Mohanlal is awesome in this movie and was one of the reasons for me to watch this movie.

Doctor Ram Das(Mohanlal) works in a small village clinic, which is run by his sister's father-in-law(and his to be father-in-law).During his visit to a poor Brahmin's aged wife he realizes that their son was murdered in the Medical college hostel during a ragging session lead by him. That feeling haunts him and as a repentance he decides to take care of that poor family .And just for that reason he started loosing everything one by one. Lalettan plays the hapless doctor to perfection. You have to see this movie to believe it. Such a mesmerizing script and story could only be penned by maestros such as M.T. and directed by the prodigy, Hariharan.
