Storyline
Featured review
Police constable Govardhan has an happy life, both personal and professional. He is kind hearted and it shows in his work as well. After a get together event arranged at their police station, Govardhan's life falls apart when a strict senior officer visits their station and berates Govardhan for being overweight. Humiliated, Govardhan tries to reduce his weight through various means before settling with Naturopathy. In the meantime, local minister approaches the police for losing 50lacs to a fraud and wants it to be handled unofficially. When the suspect gets hurt on his head causing retrograde amnesia, his superior calls Govardhan back to help him out of this mess. How does Govardhan protect suspect and also solve the case, forms rest of the story.
It's a novel script driven by the kind hearted Govardhan's character. It does start off on a decent note, introducing all the main characters and establishing Govardhan's character primarily. All the fun is lighthearted till the senior officer humiliating Govardhan. Post this, the obvious humor set up where Govardhan tries hard to lose his weight follows. Once the plot involving the injured suspect in the minister's case gets going, the film loses it's team. The case in itself isn't that intriguing and the way it gets solved was all too convenient. The film dragged on post interval due to this and only a couple of comedy scenes did work solely due to Pramod's comic timing.
