| Talking
of food, our hero chances upon a pretty damsel (Jyothika)
in the library and starts salivating himself. Then follow
several senseless songs where the two do a fair imitation
of devouring one another. Several reels are consumed in
getting Akshaye to woo the heroine. The plot thickens
when the girl's brothers also start gunning for the
hero's hide. Eventually of course they all sit back and
live happily ever after.
Jyothika
has done a good job of her part, that of a timid girl who
is terrified of her brothers. The role demands that she
convey a lot through her eyes, which she does
surprisingly well, considering the fact that this is her
first film.
There is
nothing unusual about the film, maybe thats why
Priyadarshan roped in A R Rahman for the music score. The
man is talented alright but his kind of music doesn't go
with tender love stories. The cinematography is good. The
locales are used very well, but they aren't so rich that
they run roughshod over the story.
Doli
Saja Ke Rakhna is worth seeing if you want to take the
starch out of a new handkerchief.
