Joji (2021)

Review by hridayramshenoy

Joji

8/10

Interesting. Unique. Disturbing.

Fahadh Faasil is Joji, third in a family of three brothers, and thoroughly useless. The only thing more useless than himself is his engineering degree and the books on networks and programming gathering away dust in his room.

Joji lives in a huge villa in Kottayam, with his Herculean dad, two elder brothers Jamon and Jaison, a sister in law, Bincy who is Jaison's wife, and Popy who is Jamon's son.

With a lot of family money, extremely active dad, and equally enterprising elder brothers, Joji decides to carve a niche for himself - by loitering in the elaborate rubber plantations, smoking near serene lakes, and investing in highly appreciating assets that would put even bitcoin to shame - horses.

But all is not lost. He has bought an IELTS course and is intensely preparing for it - by playing it on his laptop and taking sound naps in the middle of the day. During one such extremely productive session, he is almost strangulated to death by his father for 'having taken 8000 rupees from his credit card' and gets an ultimatum to return it.

Joji tries to find out who would have done this and finally finds out it is Popy the nephew. Bursting to tell his dad and clear his name, he runs out of the house only to find that his dad is being taken to the hospital due to a heavy stroke he suffered at work in the fields.

Chances of a recovery are slim, docs say, and Joji and Popy now decide to buy a drone from the same credit card. Happy times are short lived as father, much against medical science, makes a recovery and returns home. He is so strong despite the disablement that all three sons fear he might outlive them.

And that's when the plot starts. Joji has extremely great investment ideas like horses and Jaison has thought of buying a flat for his wife Bincy but father controls the finances with an iron fist. What happens now? Watch Joji on Amazon Prime.
