Salala Mobiles Review

Sharath Haridaasan's 'Salala Mobiles' has an unimpressive display, a flawed processor and a skimpy cell life to boot. It's a bloated and uneven attempt at crafting a romance, that is a calamity the moment you switch it on.
Afsal (Dulquer Salman) has got his mom (Geetha) all worried, since the young man has been sleeping through his days. His uncle in Salala (Jose) helps him set up a mobile phone shop called Salala Mobiles, and together with his best friend - cum - mobile technician Binoy (Jacob Gregory), Afsal looks like finally having anchored his life. Until, he happens to lay his eyes on Shahana (Nazriya Nazim), whom he falls instantly in love with
The host for the day (Sreenivasan) announces as Afsal gets set to meet Alagarsamy (Santhanam), that the former's life will soon be changed forever. The mind tapping machine that Afsal lays his hands on, does change the track of the film, and it even looks like it might be on an upswing, from the few laughs that are generated shortly thereafter.
The makers do manage to gratify the voyeur in us, and along with Afsal and Binoy, we get to eavesdrop on telephonic conversations that crack the stillness of the night. Hoarse whispers and lustful sighs illuminate the dark skies, and in the process a few masks drop off like the one that the parallel college teacher Venu (Tini Tom) has been wearing for long.
The merriment that is generated out of some of these instances is genuinely hilarious.
