Director Mahesh Vettiyar’s Vellaripattanam (Utopian State) is the latest addition to the list of comedy dramas released in the recent past in Malayalam. But this one is a political satire.
The story revolves around an imaginary village Chakkarakudam, the local body elections and the petty politics inside the political parties operating there.
Manju Warrier and Soubin Shahir appear as KP Sujatha and KP Suresh respectively. They are the members of a political party, referred to in the film as the Indian National Congress.
