NEE KO NHA CHA-A new angle in the love triangle but not youthful(Movie Review By Yoonus Mohyudhin)

New generation  camp is moving on a tough road since last few months and they hope to move on to the highway again with Nee Ko Nha Cha. But the journey may not be that easy as the movie is intense, mature and also has repetitions at a very slow pace. It lacks the youthfulness of “Rthu”, so you may not get the result as expected looking at the young and peppy promos.
Excitement of watching “Nee Ko Nha Cha” goes down the moment movie starts with the main title song. 
The story is about the lives of three friends played by Sunny Wayne, Sanju and Praveen Anidhil.The story is about a killer lover boy “Sunny” who goes on betraying his girlfriends and regrets his past when he himself is dumped by a girl. The two girls he hurts are Rohini Mathew & Merin. 
If you feel that it’s an original story idea then you must see John Cusack’s “High Fidelity” in which he also tries to find out why his affairs were not successful in his youth. And then goes back to his girlfriends asking them the reasons of their breakups. The only difference is that here Sunny goes back to say sorry for his deeds to his past girlfriends.
First half of the movie hugely resembles “Forgetting Laura Marshal” . This part bores you as you know every scene which is coming one after another. It features Poojitha Menon, who looks cute in some and aged in few scenes. There is no novelty in this part of the movie.
The second part is a bit bold as it shows a live-in relationship between Sunny & Rohini Mathew. Rohini gives a very subtle performance in this part and looks ravishing in her revealing outfits. She acts well in the scene when she is left by Sunny on the wedding day.
The third part has a fresh and gorgeous face of Poojitha who dumps Sunny . In fact Poojitha takes the highest numbers in the looks department as compared to the other two. She has the minimum footage but has a descent dress sense and impresses the viewers in the few scenes she has.
Post interval Sunny goes back to Rohini & Merin to ask for their forgiveness. Out of the two, Rohini sequence is the best one, which is also highly influenced by “Bluff Master” and “Neuvi Rianas”. Sanju as his muslim friend looks perfect and has also acted brilliantly. This part of the script is well written and executed. Merin sequence is too fast and looks hurried up a little.
The second half is bit slow in parts and that makes you hear noises in the theater. There are some intense dramatic scenes which are heavy for the young audiences and they may miss the youth factor in the movie.
The persons who impress you most on the whole are Sunny, Sanju and Poojitha Nair. Though Rohini & Merin get more footage but Poojitha scores over them with her powerful screen presence. Rohini acts well but her limitation is that she has to play the role of a supermodel (which is a reality too).
Sanju looks great and equally acts his part with competence. His getup proves that being from Muslim themselves, new generation camp knows how to portray a Muslim in films (much better than Priyadarshan).
Sunny has a very camera friendly face and he is brilliant in his act of a person at different stages of his age. No doubt a far better attempt from “Second Show”. Both Sunny and Poojitha dont look like doing their second movie. Together they look the best in the movie and you will surely enjoy watching them together.
Director Gireesh, is excellent in some sequences and knows his job well. But the screenplay makes the movie slow at times which proves a handicap for the director.
In my opinion if only the Rohini–Sunny-Sanju story was adapted for the complete movie then it may have resulted in a more entertaining flick.
The conclusion is that it is a mature and intense film lacking the youth factor which was expected. It is slow paced at times and will face mixed responses at the box office. Musically its a hit but at the ticket window, it will face a rough road.
Rating : 2.5 / 5
