Kilukkam Kilukilukkam (transl. Jingle, and more jingle) is a 2006 Indian Malayalam-language romantic comedy film directed by Sandhya Mohan and written by Udayakrishna-Siby K. Thomas. It is a sequel to the 1991 film Kilukkam.[1] The film stars a new cast of Kunchacko Boban, Jayasurya, and Kavya Madhavan while Jagathy Sreekumar reprised his role from the original and Mohanlal appears in a cameo. Mammukoya reprises his role as Gafoorkka from Nadodikkattu.[2]

Plot

Chandini sees her father, Krishnadas, Mayor of Kochi, being killed by the rivals, but manages to escape from them and comes to Ooty. The needle of suspicion falls on Roychan and his friend, Appachan. So they move to Ooty to escape. Meanwhile, Balu and Ponnappan see a piece of missing child information and go to Ooty expecting her parents to give them money. Nischal, captivated by the beauty of Chandini, is also in Ooty trying to impress her. Meanwhile, Chandini goes missing. The rest of the story is about how Joji gets involved and leads the team to trace and save Chandini.

Cast

It also features cameo-esque footage of some actors involved in Priyadarshan's film Chup Chup Ke, during the pre-opening scene of the film—Shahid Kapoor, Kareena Kapoor, Sunil Shetty, and Shakti Kapoor.

Production

The film is a sequel to the 1991 film Kilukkam directed by Priyadarshan. It was earlier titled Angamaliyile Pradhanamanthri based on a dialogue from Kilukkam.[3][4][5]

Reception

A critic from Nowrunning wrote that "Over all, the film is nothing to write home about".[6] A critic from Indiaglitz wrote that "Kilukkam, the film's parent of sorts, was a milestone in Malayalam cinema. But Kilukkam Kilukilukkam is almost a farce with mindless burlesque and silly caricaturing".[7]
