Rajamma@ Yahoo (Rajamma at Yahoo) is one of the major releases today in Kerala and the film was much anticipated due to two factors. One is ofcourse its unique title and other is the presence of actor pair of Kunchacko Boban and Asif Ali. The trailer of the film had generated positive response all over and also the song video which released two weeks back also attracted the audience. The film has been directed by Reghu Rama Varma. The film has been written by M Sindhuraj who is one of the most popular writers in Mollywood and he is one of the favorite writers of master director Lal Jose as well. So the hope to see a good entertainer is very much there for the audience.
The story of film mainly centered around two brothers named Michel Rajamma who is popularly known as Rajamma and Vishnu Yohannnan who is popularly known as Yahoo. Rajamma’s character is played by Kunchacko Boban and Yahoo’s character is played by Asif Ali. They does not have any particular job and have to say the fact that they are not much interested in doing any job. So they make a living by renting out their house inherited from their parents Yohannan and Rajamma who are no more. They loves to chill out with the inmates of the rented house as well.
Characters played by Anusree, Nikki Galrani, Shajon etc are the ones stays the house for rent. They want to sell their house but it is not possible due to some document problem. Yahoo loves Naziya played by Anusree. Rajamma develops a romantic interest towards Nikki Galrani’s character as well. She comes there in search of her father who cheated her mother. Rajamma and Yahoo involves in that search too. Kunchacko Boban and Asif ali had really rocked as Michel Rajamma and Vishnu Yohannan and they really formed the backbone of the film. Their comic one liners as well as energetic performance gave life to the whole narration.
Anusree and Nikki Galrani who played the female lead of the film had done a decent job as well. Anusree was never a let-down in the energy level when matched to the male duo. But Nikki was a bit low in energy level. Kanaran Harish, Shajon, Kailash, Mamukkoya, Renji Panicker also played their part cleanly. Sindhuraj’ script was a ok and Raghu Rama Varma did a neat job in his debut venture. But the inexperience was visible at many parts. It gives the feel that something somewhere is missing. The story lacks depth and humour part was scattered here and there. It hold only because of the sterling performance of Kanaran Harish with his great comic timing and one liners. There is nothing new in the film which excites us as well.
Bijipal’s music scoring really went well with the mood and atmosphere of the film even though they are not that great. DOP by S Kumar was great and the visuals by him provided good support to the youthful atmosphere of the film. In total Rajamma @ Yahoo is an average entertainer with some fun elements. You can have a one time watchable usual entertainer by watching this one.
