It’s high time Mr. Mohanlal do something about the people who wants to sell him by creating extremely tacky creations. The Vishu weekend we witnessed one lackluster attempt and this week it’s the turn of Suvarna Purushan which beats last week’s Manju Warrier starrer Mohanlal by a big margin in being mediocre.
