Jaya Jaya Jaya Jaya Hey

JJJJH starring Darshana Rajendran in the lead and directed by Vipin Das is a clever laugh riot that looks like a spiced up and more cinematic version of "The Great Indian Kitchen" and deals with a highly pertinent and disgusting problem in our society. Special mention to the maker for choosing to stand with the protagonist all along instead of whitewashing the toxicity and two-faced behavior of her parents and in-laws. A group of fresh faces give hilarious performances along with the ever-reliable Basil, Asees Nedumangadu, Manju Pillai, Noby and Aju Varghese. DOP Bablu gives some fresh coloring to the outskirts of Kollam. Ankit Menon's music is fine even if the songs are unnecessary.

Must watch!

If you watched Minnal Murali, you prolly know about Basil Joseph.

JJJH is a movie about domestic violence in simple terms. BUT it's unlike your sob story kind of movie where you simply feel pity for the main character.

JJJH is witty, funny, and at times a little sad. But never for once will it make you settle down. You will notice all the ironical details about patriarchy in society and how domestic violence has been normalized for years. But all of these have been done in a not-preachy way.

There's this hilarious scene with a woman clad in Burqa and she is asking the other character to ask her husband how much freedom she enjoys...with the context of the film, it just gets absolutely hilarious. JJJH is phenomenally well-written.

And my word who knew Basil Joseph could portray a negative character in such a beautiful manner.

8.5/10 for me.

It was well worth the trouble of going to cinemas for a night show.

Do watch it folks if it eventually comes to cinemas or OTT.

More power to Malayalam films. At this point my expectations are too high for whatever they make.

Movie is quite precise because situations of women in our country is abnormal that how they are treated from birth to death . If you've seen the movie, you must've known, that women face a lot of traumatize situations from her childhood like her education, marriage conflicts, low attaintion of her own family, after marriage situations and also her fighting spirit for emerging from traumas .

Director's vision was completely based on substantial reality of a woman's life .

Director have shown a criticized shame for those who thinks that woman is a Borden for her family . A scene where some relatives are crying at marriage fairwell .( A sympathetical situation with a unsympathetic manner)

There were so many moments in the film that I felt like this is something I'm so familiar with in real life and in cinema but never have I seen this portrayed with such fun and realism at the same time. Whenever domestic abuse news comes up people talk about various points where it should've stopped but those same people in Kerala will act like the family of Jaya in this film. This film opens up that hypocrisy in the most fun way possible. The character of Rajesh is very very familiar to me. The realism that may feel absurd to anyone outside of Indian culture is always pushed just a tiny bit so that it can be made into a fun movie. It is from Rajesh's action that I noticed the little tweak in realism. It is not enough to not call it realistic but still manage to do that so that the nuances are clearly conveyed in the most fun way. I'm really glad this became such a massive success in Kerala. There would be many Rajesh in the audience who would clap to this film and then go on doing the exact same thing to their wives.

After watching several Malayalam movies and "Palthu Janwar" (translated hindi name). I an fan of Malayalam cinema... Now about Jaya Jaya Jaya Hey.. I didn't want the movie to end what a nice story line ..kept me captured the whole time .. every men and women should watch this.

Showing the harsh reality with the tadka of humor which made the movie quite fanatic to think upon .

It showed the real faces whether it was the husband or the family of the bride. Sweet and tangy slap to the male dominating society we are living in.

The funniest part was the wresting commentary which was hilarious. On the contrary the emotional part was the duration protagonist aka antagonist trying to be sweeter to his wife and she came to know his plan.
