2 Harihar Nagar

The first movie was a sensation in Kerala. A mallu who has not seen the movie - In Harihar Nagar is rare to find.To make a sequel after 18 years is a difficult task. Lal has triumphed in that matter to a great extent.

After 18 years Mahadevan(Mukesh),Govindan Kutty(Siddique),Thomas Kutty(Ashokan) and Appukuttan(Jagadish) have become professionals and are settled in different parts of the country.All of them return to Harihar Nagar to attend the engagement of Thomas Kutty who is the only remaining bachelor in the group. They meet Maya(Lakshmi Rai) who soon becomes the centre of their attention.All four who are desperate for a change from their family life try to impress her.Like before they end up in trouble.

The second half is rather serious and much more sentimental.Plus there are lot of twists towards the end of the movie.Some characters in the movie were totally unnecessary.Like Atlas - Ramachandran.If he is not the producer I guess he might have paid the real one to get the role. Salim Kumar's talent was totally wasted.

I went to the cinema with high expectations on the first day itself. I really enjoyed the first half of the movie. But the second half was not upto the mark.There is no doubt that the movie will become a hit. But it can never be compared to the first one.
