This was the third time I was watching 'Oru Vadakkan Selfie'- seen it twice from the theatre, once from Hyderabad (PVR, Forum Mall) and once from Kerala (Rose, Mukkam). The movie is a great entertainer, at least towards the end part.It has a lot of genuine humour moments in it- humour which I can relate to in my life, a lot. There where many situations where I saw my own life in Nivin Pauly's character, when he's in front of his family as a jobless youth, lazy in studies, with not much of a sense of responsibility. Even though it was my third time watching it, I laughed throughout the movie- and that's the success of it. Though I appreciate the casting of Manjima as heroine, her acting could have been better- let's watch out for her upcoming movies and decide further whether she's good. I especially liked the fact that the film didn't end in a conventional way, with the leads falling in love in the end and happily ever after and all that. The film doesn't even set the heroine as the hero's lover or show what they all do after all the adventure they had. On the whole, 'Oru Vadakkan Selfie' is pure fun!
PS: Nivin Pauly is getting better and better with his youthful antics in each film. The movie was a good precursor to 'Premam'. Eagerly waiting for 'Action Hero Biju'.
