Maharaja Talkeis - This talkies falters big time

Cast: Mukesh, Urvashi, Jagadheesh

The movie is all about the attempts of Vimala (played by Urvashy) to somehow run a dilapidated film theatre  which is passed over to her family by their mother as an ancestral property. Vimala had been a fatherly figure to her three sisters  Ganga, Yamuna and Unnimaya,since their father desolated them years ago, but she some how manages to run the theatres with the help of her sisters. The major obstacle to the theatre running comes from Moorkhanparambil Pappachan (Vijayraghavan), a rich local man who is all set to somehow close the running of the theatre. For that he employs every cheaper ways including hiring a cabaret dancer to the highhandedness of the local panchayath members. Pappachan, instead  has plans to go for a bigger well quipped theatre in the lone town. To fill in the screen time apart from the fights between Pappachan and vimala, there is the romance in the air for the fours sister where Mukesh to Ramesh Pisharday comes up as the suitors to the four.

Bottom Line

===========

Maharaja Talkeis - This talkies falters big time

The director Devidasan has a pale debut with 'Maharaja Talkies’ as nothing even in the technical side is worth mentioning. At the box-office, with the lack of promotion and a poor opening, coupled with a nondescript script, the fall of the movie is inevitable.
