Thinkalazhcha Nishchayam

Set in Kanhangad, a modest town in North Kerala, arrangements are underway for Vijayan's second daughter, Suja's engagement. On what should be a perfect ceremony, the bride is having second thoughts, her father is in a financial mess, and as members of their family arrive one by one, family secrets start to surface. Set within the two days preceding the ceremony, the entire film happens in and around Vijayan's house.

Thinkalazhcha Nishchayam (Engagement is On Monday) starts, fires some truth bombs through a comical setting with an upcoming wedding ceremony as the backdrop, and ends. To make such a wholesome satire requires brilliant writing, and that is where the film shines. Each and every dialogue uttered by each and every character is worth pondering upon. And it's not like the characters are in the side line. You relate with each one of them like they are your own relatives back in Kerala. While many of these dialogues will give you a chuckle, it's those towards the end that make the message clear. Add tour de force of performances by a fresh cast and you have the laugh riot and social film of the year. Watch it.
