Mummy & Me is the latest malayalam movie staring Kunchacko Boban, Archana Kavi, Mukesh, Lalu Alex, Urvashi, Shari, Janardhanan, Anoop Menon. and directed by Jithu Joseph.
There is a big turn in the life of malayalees as they watch malayalam tv programs every day. That is the same reason why this movie may become a success.
The film talks about the generation gap between a teenager and her mother portrayed by Archana Kavi and Urvasi, respectively.
Archana Kavi protrays todays teenage daugher in a middle class family who is demanding more freedom in her life. She is not happy with her mother trying to control her life. This leads to friction and Joseph (Mukesh), the father, has to bear the brunt of it. His efforts to be a bridge fail most of the time.
The other characters who pad up the story are Jewel’s younger brother (Master Jeevan), who spies on his sister and reports to their mother; Rahul (Kunchako Boban), son of Joseph’s childhood friend (Lalu Alex), who acts as Jewel’s local guardian and secretly likes her. Story takes the turn as Jewel gets into trouble with the college bad guys and rahul saves her.
The cast saves the movie from being a total disaster. Urvasi takes to the role as a fish would take to water. I saw one of her inerview where she speaks like a dumb girl. Archana need to graduate as an actress to take up any role with substance. Kunchako Boban is trying his best to look like and act like a college student. Mukesh and Lalu alex are just part of the movie.
This movie is getting ample attention and is is going to be another successfull in Malayalam as the subject and the presentation is loved by the malayalee family world wide. The society is looking for such good movies rather than purely commercial cinema.
It is the second movie for the director Jeethu Joseph with different subject than the first one. It may be the title and the story line which is doing the magic.
