Analysis

Himalayathile Kashmalan is one of those movies that had the potential to be so much more than what the end result actually is. Abhiram Suresh Unnithan, an amateur director, attempted replicating the classic formula followed by Golmaal and Hera Pheri Hera Pheri is a comedy based TV show which came on >> Read More... , putting the protagonists in an awkward position which they've got to pull themselves out of by their bootstraps. The awkward and embarassing situation in question is when one person out of a group of four friends ends up sleeping with a married woman, and the rest of the group has to somehow get him out of a bathroom so he can escape before the woman's husband discovers him. As expected, the entire thing gets blown out of proportion somehow and other parties start getting involved as well- which are plot points that have already been overused by a lot of Bollywood and regional indian films.

What’s There?

  • Liberated plot

What’s Not There?

  • Crass humor
  • Stereotypical

Verdict

In all honesty, Himalayathile Kashmalan is a movie that is rotten to its core. The cast is unexceptional, the humour is crass and the dialogue is average at it's best and awkward beyond belief at its worst. The only reason behind the recommendation of this movie to anyone is to serve as a masterclass on how NOT to do a comedy film.
