Adi (Anoop Menon) is really cool about Sidharthan's (Mohanlal) lustful relationships with several women. Sidhan, as he was known to his friends, lived in a world created by himself and no one dictated terms to him. But what surprised Adi was the knowledge that his father could have been pushed to death by someone else. He finally succeeds in finding who did it, but that was a truly shocking revelation for him.
Pakal Nakshatrangal is an engaging tale for sure, but falls short of becoming a brilliant effort. It has been packaged in a conventional format, without taking pains to give a feeling of freshness to its narration. The initial sequences give an “off beat” colour but the efforts to solve the mystery behind the murder gives some pace to the proceedings as well.
