![]() Usually, the elevator pitches for Maruthi’s films are so short that a ride to the first floor would leave some space for awkward silences but this film has an even thinner plot. Maybe Maruthi’s films in the future can become a landmark for the cultural and pop-cultural references to the year his movies released in – because there are references to WhatsApp forwards, memes, popular TV serials, other big budget films, and Santhosh Shobhan even manages to sneak in a reference to his older films (it’s like watching a 14-year old boy twirl a moustache that sprouted yesterday). When Gopalam objects to his daughter’s love, a comedy of errors ensues. But she’s in love with Santhosh (Santhosh Shoban) whose sole purpose in life is to fill the large ‘heroine’ shaped hole in his life and have a successful love story. Here the flawed protagonist is a pessimistic and fearful father Gopalam (Ajay Ghosh) who is easily influenced by others and he projects these fears onto his daughter Paddhu (Mehreen). In Prathi Roju Pandage a comedy of errors ensued through children whose aging father was treated as a burden. In Maahanubhaavudu a comedy of errors ensued because of a neatness freak’s expectations on the world around him. In Bhale Bhale Magadivoy a comedy of errors ensued because of an absent-minded protagonist’s attempt to find love.
