Music for the film has been composed by Prashant Pillai and the cinematography is handled by Sarath Shaji with editing by Amal Ayyappan.Īju Varghese, besides taking up interesting roles, has produced films as well. Incidentally, the film also has Aju Varghese playing an important role. The film is produced under the banner D14 Entertainments. Sayanna Varthakal is a socio-political satire film written and directed by debutant Arun Chandu. If you catch him “acting” as he spews gyan on honest labour to Bobin over cream buns, I promise to refund your money.It may be noted here that director Arun Chandu had directed the Gokul Suresh and Dhyan Sreenivasan starrer Sayanna Varthakal which is getting ready for release soon. Check out the veteran who plays the owner of a rival bakery(Jaffar Idduki). K B Ganesh Kumar as Bobin and Betsy’s uncle is such a natural I felt I knew him first-hand. This is true of Sajan Bakery Since 1962 where even the smallest role is redolent with realism. In Malayalam cinema the actors don’t seem to act. What I liked the most about this film is that it never loses sight of the real world even while dabbling in the alternate reality of cinematic devices, like courtship, romance, breakups, songs,family bondings …All through, the director maintains a resolute grip over the grammar of his storytelling thereby ensuring that the film remains true to life even as it assumes cinematic postures. The rhythm of life in the drudgery of existence is never broken. Kudos to the writer and director for letting the woman take the courtship lead rather than have her passively willing.The narrative never fumbles while showing the siblings at war with each other, and with themselves. But who cares! Certainly not Merin who has her heart set on Bobin. Some of the film’s most balmy interludes are the ones where Merin wooes Bobin sending him loving text messages.It is stalking in reverse, if you ask me.

He left because Betsy is hard to live with.But somewhere in her fractured heart Betsy is hopeful of a reconciliation.Įnter Merin(a sparkling Ranjita Menon) who begins to get fond of Bobin. She has been separated from her husband who is not a drunken lout, thank God. The cloying sweetness of families hugging kissing eating and defecating together, makes way for a genuine portrait of family fissures and cracks and how they are cemented by an all-encompassing sense of kinship that is not easy to cling to.Įver since their father abandoned them and the bakery business, siblings Bobin(Aju Varghese) and Betsy(Lena) have been running the family business, baking buns and cakes, while barely being able to stand each other’s company.īetsy sees Bobin for what he is: selfish, uncaring and irresponsible. It’s a film that moves in a direction opposite to Sooraj Barjatya’s Hum Aapke Hain Koun and Karan Johar’s Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham. After the very successful boxing film Sarpatta Parambarai in Tamil, Amazon brings us this heartwarming film in Malayalam about a family that owns a bakery,bickers together but stays together.
