Martin Prakkat, who debuted as director with Mammootty's Best
Actor, has
teamed with his son Dulquar Salman and a few new faces for
his second directorial venture ABCD (American Born Confused Desi), which
has hit the marquee this Friday. The movie is out-and-out laugh riot
with fine performances and rich production values. With this film,
Dulquar is sure to set a new style statement.
ABCD is a beautiful romance comedy entertainment with all masala stuff
to impress the mass. Dulquar and Jacob's brilliant performances are the
main highlights of the film. Sooraj-Neeraj's interesting story, Martin's
engaging narration, Gopi Sunder's music, Jomon T John's camera work,
beautiful artwork and locales and trendy costumes and makeups are its
other attractions. Some illogical and over-the-top comedy scenes are its
drawbacks.
The movie narrates the journey of two American Malayalees to their
motherland - Kerala. ABCD brings out their dilemmas in the unfamiliar
circumstances in a very hilarious way. The story is quite interesting
and Martin Prakkat has a very good grip on the narration of the whole
show. With a few comedy scenes and funny-one-liners, the director keeps
you engaged in the film till its end.
Johns (Dulquar Salman) is born and brought up in America, he leads a
luxurious life. But some unprecedented events lead him to leave for his
motherland Kerala. His cousin Kora (Jacob Gregory) also accompanies him.
Soon Johns becomes a star among his relatives here with his foreign
attire and gentle behaviour. How he behaves in some unfamiliar
circumstances have been brought in humorous way should be watched on
screen.
