Mammootty Shines Bright In This Moving Political Drama

One, the Mammootty starring political drama has finally hit the theatres today (March 26, Friday). The Santhosh Viswanath directorial has released as the megastar's second theatrical release, post the lockdown. Mammootty is playing the role of the Chief Minister of Kerala for the first time in his career in One, which is scripted by Bobby-Sanjay duo. Kadakkal Chandran (Mammootty) is a senior politician and the Chief Minister of Kerala. His strong decisions and morals equally affect both the opposition party as well as the members of his own party. However, Baby (Joju George), the party secretary and Chandran's best buddy, always supports his decisions. However, things take a different turn when Kadakkal Chandran decides to present the 'Right to Recall' bill.

Mammootty once again stuns the audience with his majestic screen presence and brilliant performance as Kadakkal Chandran in One. The megastar brings the rooted yet larger-than-life persona of the Kerala Cheif Minister to life with absolute ease. Mammootty's voice modulation is simply impeccable.

Murali Gopy excels as the crooked opposition leader Jayanandan, while Joju George portrays the dilemmas of the party secretary Baby to near perfection. The rest of the star cast, including Mathew Thomas, Salim Kumar, Madhu, Shankar Ramakrishnan, director Ranjith, Jagadheesh, Sudheer Karamana, Prem Kumar, Mamukoya, Meghanadhan, Jayakrishan, Sudev Nair, Nimisha Sajayan, Nishanth Sagar, Gayathri Arun, Ishaani Krishna, and so on are good in their respective roles

Mammootty's extraordinary performance is the backbone of this moving political drama. Despite the minor flaws in storytelling, One emerges as a highly impactful theatrical experience.
