Makeupman, directed by Shafi after his latest hit 'Marykundoru Kunjadu" is reported to be a hit. Jayaram plays the lead role while Sheela (Telugu actress & Mayabazaar fame) pairs with him. Music composed by Vidyasagar. So when we say Vidyasagar music, we will expect more. Because whatever songs he composed in Malayalam, all were a hit. But this logic doesnt apply in this movie. Unless other Vidyasagar movies, this movie have only 2 songs (in theatres).
The story is very simple, a normal guy with lot of debts had to marry his lover and for survival, the lover is trying her luck as a heroine in a movie. Since the marriage was a secret, Jayaram is forced to do makeup man's role for his lover to always be with her. The lover's role as a heroine clicks and it creates problems in their life. It leads to the edge of the divorce. But how they are united at the end is the climax.
The movie, I would say an average. The first half of the movie is interesting with some typical Jayaram comedy but the second half was more of serious affairs. Back on track, the last 20 mins again turns into comedy with some extra characters coming IN. Sheela is not upto the mark in the movie as far as acting is concerned. Shafi might have tried for some other heroines. And i would have preferred Dileep playing the lead role because Jayaram is looking too old and he is not able to retain his old talent.
Overall opinion is "can wait till it comes to TV or in DVD"
