Mera Naam Shaji is the third directorial venture of Nadirsha's after his two super hit films. So with a lot of expectations, I went to watch this movie.
Three Shaji's story where mainly shows in this film as the name of the film mentions.
Asif Ali as Shaji George, Biju Menon as Shaji Usman and Baiju Santhosh as Shaji Sukumaran.
The three are different in nature, job and living conditions.
All three come unexpectedly to Kochi from different locations. Then with suspense in comedy track movie go-ahead.
The story of this movie is then focused on Asif Ali's character named Shaji George.
Actors named Asif Ali, Biju Menon, Baiju Santhosh did their roles very well.
But the director failed to show the amazing acting talents of these great actors of the Malayalam film industry in this film.
An actress named Nikhila Vimal did the heroine role well along with Ganesh Kumar and Sreenivasan.
Comedy Actor named Dharnajan's comedy scenes were not so good in this film as he did in the two previous super hit movies of the director of this movie.
Apart from some good comedy scenes in the first half the rest of the movie was average.
Two songs in this movie were very good.
Three Shaji's from different locations with different language slang was interesting and among them, Baiju Santhosh ( as Shaji Sukumaran ) was the best.
Political comedy in this movie shown as subplot was not too good.
Also emotional scenes, dialogues, the climax was not much interesting.
According to my opinion, this is the weakest movie from a highly multi-talented director named Nadirshah.
I expect great movies from this great director in the future.
