Salt n Pepper


This movie is like a perfect dish which has all the ingredients added in correct proportion by an excellent cook. Director Ashiq Abu has made perfect choices of actors for his characters. Baburaj who until now had remained as a villain and nightmare has turned overnight to comedian and he excelled in his new Avatar, cook Babu.

Story runs as different threads woven together in a beautiful manner. Kalidasan (Lal) is an archeologist, Maya (Swetha Menon) is a dubbing artist, both in their middle years. What connects these two are their passion for cooking and soon their friendship blossoms to a "delicious" relationship. Meenakshi(Mythili) Maya's roommate and Manu (Asif Ali) Kalidasan's nephew too portreyed their part well. With some twists and turns and all is well ends well, this movie is a sure watch. Other casts include Baburaj as Kalidasan's cook, Kalpana as Maria who runs a beauty parlor and gives paying guest accommodation to Maya and Meenakshi, Vijayaraghavan a fellow archeologist.

Music is rendered by Bijipal and there are some good songs and the Aviyal band has also rendered a good song.
