Abhiyum Njanum Review

'Abhiyum Njanum' has nothing at all in common with the Tamil film by the same name, though after having watched the Malayalam film, I wished it did. It's a mostly forgettable romantic caper that progressively stumbles right from the first frame.
Abhirami (Arachana Kavi) has landed in Kerala for a day, with an intention to meet Sohan Menon, her cousin whom she hasn't yet met in her life. On reaching his place, she is told that Sohan has gone out for the day, and his mother entrusts his best friend Rahul (Rohit) to take her to Sohan. Off the duo sets off on his bike, and Abhirami blows her top when in the course of half a day, Rahul asks her if she could love him instead of Sohan, about whom she knows little
'Abhiyum Njanum' falters right from the start, since it builds it tale on a ground that is quite shaky. The year is 2013, and here we have a girl who has been born and brought up in Mumbai, who flies to Kerala to meet a man whom she has never ever seen in his life. Sounds quite unwise and reckless, even if you attribute a nonexistent adventurous spirit to her.
One also does not understand why Abhirami texts a message to Sohan on the day prior to her journey, when she could have rung him up in person any time to confirm if he would be around. To believe that she has not seen a photograph of his, is stretching the liberty of creativity to unfeasible lengths, and I wonder if most of the viewers would buy such an argument.
