Velipadinte Pusthakam; A cliched book from Mohanlal-Lal Jose team

Velipadinte Pusthakam was one of the much anticipated movies during this Onam season. The main reason was for the first time versatile actor Mohanlal acted in a movie directed by Lal Jose who has crafted many entertaining movies such as Meesa Madhavan, Classmates, Arabikatha and more. What attracted Mohanlal, a legend in Indian Film Industry, to do Velipadinte Pusthakam scripted by Benny P. Nayarambalam remains a million dollar question.

Velipadinte Pusthakam produced by Antony Perumbavoor under the banner of Aashirvad Cinema offers nothing special for the audience. In fact the movie positioned as campus entertainer is a book of cliches (story to comedy). 

The only highlight of Velipadinte Pusthakam is song titled 'Entammede Jimikki Kammal' written by Anil Panachooran and composed by Shaan Rahman. The song sung by singer-director-actor Vineeth Sreenivasan and Renjith Unni has already crossed 7 million views on YouTube.

The movie also stars Salim Kumar, Angamaly Diaries fame Reshma Rajan and Sarath (Appani Ravi). Mohanlal portrays the role of a college vice-principal named Michael Idikkula in the film.
