Bhaskar the Rascal Review

Siddique's 'Bhaskar the Rascal' is a film sans an internal narrative logic that hardly outweighs its jaded stereotypes. The only redeeming fact about the two and a half hour long film is the highly agreeable combination of its four lead actors - Mammootty, Nayantara, Sanoop and Anikha - all of whom desperately struggle to bring in some sense into an otherwise bizarre storyline.
Aadi (Sanoop Santhosh) is a motherless kid, who mortified at his dad Bhaskar's (Mammootty) behaviour keeps imploring him to watch his tongue and actions. His best friend Shivani (Anikha) is distraught that she and her mom Hima (Nayantara) have been left alone in the world, ever since her dad Sanjay Sharma (Chakravarthy) was shot dead by a group of miscreants.
When the children decide that it would be a wonderful idea to bring their parents together, Bhaskar takes to the idea warmly, while Hima is aghast. Reluctantly though, she gives in when an unexpected twist in the plot thwarts the couple's marriage plans.
'Bhaskar the Rascal' is a film that cashes in on Mammootty's dad image to the core. While the actor plays a combination of the various screen dads that he has played till date, it remains that Bhaskar has neither the affability that Pappoos' dad had, or the suaveness that made Daddy Cool a style icon of sorts.
On the other hand, Bhaskar is supposedly less a man of words and more a man of action. There are instances galore when he gets to prove his combat skills,
