Director: I.V. Sasi; Writer: T. Damodaran; Cast: Mammootty, Mohanlal, Rehman, Mahalakshmi, Lily
Summary: Early instance of the fast-paced satires of
director Sasi and writer Damodaran, also
featuring the combined presence of Malayalam
megastars Mammootty and Mohanlal. Babu
(Mohanlal), a poor orphan, wins a rigged
lottery ticket by accident, and encounters a
new world of crime, double-dealing and
dishonesty. He eventually realises that he has
no use for the money, and prefers to get rid of
it and return to his earlier lifestyle. Mammootty
plays a political activist in a film liberally
peopled with gangsters, crooked lawyers with
dubious morals, drug addicts and (Sasi’s
regular feature) cabaret dancers.
