The director, who is also the scriptwriter, penned a loose script meant to make people laugh. While there are many subplots in the story, but they aren’t complicated.
Voice of Sathyanathan features Dileep in the titular role. He elopes with Soosan (Veena Nandakumar) to a small village where he encounters some issues that change his life.
When he speaks about a subject, it boomerangs. This gets him in trouble when he accuses the panchayat president. The police misinterpret this as the Indian president who is visiting.
Sathyanathan is kept in jail till the President leaves the state. A similar incident happens when Sathyanathan travels to Mumbai for a business purpose and he is kept locked.
Sathyanathan’s encounters issues and how his life changes after that form the crux of the film. The “Sahi” and “Balan” episodes are major points in the story but they lack logic.
Joju George as Balan is commendable while Dileep as Sathyanthan did his part well. But the real show-stealer of Voice of Satyanathan is Siddique who excels as Tabla Varkey.
Voice of Sathyanathan isn’t the same as new-generation movies. Raffi seems to have reworked and re-presented his old comedy films to draw the family audience to theatres.
