Plot
Sub-inspector Shibu (Indrans), Lawrence (Manikandan Pattambi), and Ashraf (Sabumon) are the cops of the Paramedu police station. The police team begins a mission named 'Oru Chayakku Oru Jeevan', a programme which is introduced to develop a bond between the Kerala police and the commoners. Samyukthan (Saiju Kurup), a marketing executive gets the first glass of tea from the police team. However, things take a different turn when the police team's tea puts Samyukthan in trouble.
Script & Direction
John Manthrickal, the script writer has made a great debut with Janamaithri, which is a total fun ride. The director has succeeded in making an excellent comedy entertainer, which can be enjoyed by the audiences of all age groups. Director John has also co-written the movie along with James Sebastian, and the writer duo has made sure that the fun-filled narrative revolves around a solid plot.
The characters are neatly developed and the casting is absolutely on point. Director John has made complete use of the exceptional actors in the star cast. But the movie doesn't give much space to the female characters, which is disappointing. However, it is truly delightful to watch a well-scripted comedy film, which does not rely on vulgar jokes, after ages.
