Hallo is to Mohanlal, what Dabangg2 is to Salman Khan…story
that could have been…moments that could have been…bad music…wasted actors…relying
solely on out of place antics of a star…
I do know Dabangg2 will break a lot of box office records
this year and from what I understand Hallo did as well.
Anyways here goes…
Shivaraman (Mohanlal), a lawyer by profession is now an unabashed alcoholic blaming his parents and brother, a police officer for the
untimely demise of his lover.
Parvathi (Parvathi Menon) is the daughter of an extremely
wealthy Marwari. Her family members apparently are after her life and she is
trying to escape their clutches. Unfortunately she is kidnapped, but somehow manages a
phone call which connects her to Shivaraman. He figures out the hideout by
recognizing the ‘bar’ sign Parvathi describes and rescues the damsel in
distress. Rest of the movie is a tussle between Shivaraman and Parvathi’s
family. I can now write about tons of loopholes in the plot and absolutely
silly story…but I am not going to waste my time doing it.
Music is as bad as it can get. Direction and editing don’t deserve
a mention. Mohanlal looks ridiculous doing those antics and Parvathi Menon
looks like a bimbo and acts like one for good measure.
DVD is available with Moser Baer with subtitles - Hallo
Do Skip.
