Maniyarayile Ashokan
After Breezy Varane Avishyamund
Dulquer Salman produces  another fine family entertainer
Maniyarayile Ashokan tells the story about Ashokan a
single son who can't wait to get married
the visuals and locales are beauty to
look at
jacob gregory performs his best in the
titular role Ashokan
which can be described as an extension
of thalathil dineshan
of Vadakkunokiyenthram and Sadhananthan of Sadhananthante Samayam
the conflict of lead character is
compelling yet the makers have taken the
most conventional route
to reach the climax songs were just
about okay and being a superstar
production
they had to shoehorn various cameos
often derailing the narrative
of its organic continuity debut director
shamsa zaiba could have tried better to
keep things in place and also to explain
a few subplots
better in the end Maniyarayile Ashokan is a
simple
and earnest tale best watched in this
festive season
