| 12 | Priyadarshan's follow-up to his successful |
| 13 | Chithram (1988). Two down-and-out friends, |
| 14 | the tourist guide Jojy (Mohanlal) and the |
| 15 | photographer Nischal (Jagathy), encounter |
| 16 | Nandini (Revathi) whom they recognise from |
| 17 | an advertisement offering a reward for finding |
| 18 | her. They discover that she is trying to escape |
| 19 | from her tormentor and is in search of her |
| 20 | father. After scenes of romance and some |
| 21 | remarkable song picturisations, interrupted by |
| 22 | Nischal’s comically inept attempt to turn her in, |
| 23 | Jojy defeats the terrifying villain, a Hindispeaking |
| 24 | Muslim (often presented as the height |
| 25 | of evil in Priyadarshan films) and wins the girl. |
| 26 | Among the film's best moments are the comic |
| 27 | scenes between the retired Judge Nambiar, |
| 28 | played by the veteran Malayalam character |
| 29 | actor Thilakan, and his bungling servant |
| 30 | Kittunni (Innocent). Priyadarshan remade the |
| 31 | film in Hindi as Muskurahat (1992), with less |
| 32 | success. |
