One of Prem Nazir's early hits with Miss Kumari.An action-comedy with a flawed plot .Nazir shows a fine flair for comedy which sadly was not exploited more until he reached middle-age.The script and music are dated though the duet'kaalamellamullasam' is still enduring.The direction is good but the muddled story,song after meaningless song ruins the excellent tempo set from the start.It could have been better but we must remember that this kind of escapism was contrived with the 1955 public in mind.Nazir's style has been copied by many since this film, not the least his hair style which makes him stand out like a beacon in a storm!
