Three weeks back when we visited sky-walk for booking tickets for a movie, we didnt find any good one. We ended up booking for "Valiyavan". At that time, I saw a malayalam movie listed in the PVR theatre - "Oru Vadakkan Selfie". It had the new crew - Nivin & Vineeth Srinivasan. Valiyavan was not upto our expectation.
Work pressure in office kept on increasing and I wanted to have a break - decided to see a movie. The first one that came to my mind was "Oru Vadakkan Selfie". Though I dont know Malayalam, thought that I will be able to understand as the movie flows and also due to its phonetical similarity of Malayalam with Tamil.

When I told this to my friend, she asked about the hero and heroine. I told about Nivin, she didn't know who it was, then I told her that, he is the hero in "Neram" movie.

But I forgot the name of the heroine, though I read her name in the internet, but I remembered part of it and told her "Muniamma". She got surprised upon hearing that name. But later it turned out that the heroine was "Manjima" (Should be the Malaylam equivalent of "Muniamma", I guess).

We reached the Ega theatre around 6:30 PM and bought tickets and started waiting outside. I started taking a Selfie and some photos of my little friends. I also observed that many were taking selfies. These days, whatever we do, there is a need to capture it in a photo and share it with others through Facebook or WhatsApp. I observed most of the girls are following a particular posture for taking the Selfie. They raise the hand with the mobile phone above the face level to an angle of about 40 degrees, bend the upper portion of the body slightly backwards, slightly join the lips as if they are about to kiss someone, and then click the Selfie. If more than one girl is involved, their cheeks will be stuck together.
When the movie started, we were surprised to find that the movie had "sub-titles", thanks to the Qube digital projection, though we miss the "grrr" sound of the old projectors. Now we can understand the movie better. But the problem with sub-titles is that we will be missing the scenes, as we focus more on reading the text, than watching the picture.
The initial scenes showed the beauty of Kerala, its greenness and scenarios. I liked the scenes where the Guys were taking bath in a river (or a water-stream), as I always long to take bath in a river or in a water-stream. Nivin looks like a Tamil Guy, and Manjima too looks like a normal girl, a girl without that special "mallu-prettyness".

The movie has a simple story where Nivin happens to go to Chennai, and in the train, he accidently finds Manjima and secretly takes a Selfie with her and shares it to his friend. Actually the girl elopes from her home, and when his friend shares the photo to public, they think that the girl eloped with Nivin. This puts Nivin and his friend into big troubles and why the girl elopes, and how Nivin and his friend solve this mystry with the help of a private detective "Vineeth Srinivasan" forms the rest of the movie.

Also observed that my little friends were trying to make out how the movie gets projected from the projector to the screen. To Deepu, its a big TV, the moment we entered, he kept asking when they switch on the big TV.
