      Raghavan Nair: Law points?

      Prabhakaran: [Jumping from his seat] It is you Father! I thought you were some monopolists! I was startled.

      Raghavan Nair: Why are you afraid of monopolists?

      Prabhakaran: They are the ones who must be feared. Enemies of the revolution! Obstacles in the path of social equality! Poisonous snakes!

    Best political comedy satire

    One of the all time classics of Malayalam movie industry. The first half is excellent with superb comedies which very popular till now. The second half goes into a normal Indian movie type.
