ReviewThe script is a big letdown, hardly managing to keep your interest even as it revolves around a murder mystery.CrisCBI 5 / FacebookNostalgia for the beloved Cbi movie series, if you have any, is likely to end with the opening credits of the fifth and latest in the series – Cbi 5: The Brain. The joy of once again hearing the cherished theme music and snippets of famous lines from the earlier movies sprinkled across the titles puts you in a different mood, eager and expectant.

InterviewTNM caught up with Cbi series writer Sn Swamy for a chat, as the fifth edition of the movie, titled ‘Cbi 5: The Brain’, gets ready for release on May 1.Neelima MenonFacebookWhen Sn Swamy was planning to write a police story, it was Mammootty who felt that another cop might struggle to outshine the brilliance of the fiery inspector Balram in Avanazhi and suggested propelling a Cbi officer at the thick of things. And when Swamy had a name like Ali Imran in mind, it was Mammootty who suggested that the character be a Tamil Brahmin. Thus was born one of the most fascinating fictional characters in Malayalam cinema – Sethurama Iyer, the disarmingly calm Cbi officer who never raises his voice and thinks on his feet. Oru Cbi Diary Kurippu, which came in 1988, was the highest grosser in Malayalam that year and ran for a full year in Tamil Nadu.
