Kalabhavan Mani surrenders before the police!

Director East Coast Vijayan’s new film ‘Mohabbath’ that stars Meera Jasmine, Munna and Anand Michael in the lead roles seems to have met with not so encouraging words from the critics. Here is a dekko at what they have to say.

Nowrunning finds it heading for disaster: “‘Mohabbat’ suffers from all the standards perils of an outdated romantic tale. Everything – ranging from the long-dead story to the hackneyed situations, the uninspiring characters to the banal climax – is there in this desperate-looking flick that’s not much fun.”

Sify says its notmuch more than a music video: “Can you watch a music video in bright colours that is all about silly romance, irritating comedy scenes, melodrama and more melodrama, for more than two hours?Director East Coast Vijayan has churned up a film that looks glossy at times, but with a rather outdated and highly predictable storyline.”

Rediff finds it disappointing: “On the whole, Mohabbath is a film that works in bits and pieces but does not deserve to be called a Meera Jasmine film. So, it ends up being a disappointing venture.”
