A surprise serving of novelty from the Thamarakkulam-Jayaram combo after years, Pattabhiraman (English: given Tamil-origin name) touches upon the important topic of food security in restaurants and food factories and uses a delectable container (of a scrupulous health inspector with an aspiration to crack down on all illegal food joints) to make its point but then in the final 40 minutes takes such a virulent turn it goes back to the slipshod territory that everyone one in Malayalam cinema has said goodbye to long back except Kannan Thamarakkulam and Jayaram. Brownie points for pairing Jayaram with an age-appropriate actress like Sheel Abraham. TN.
