Ajagajantharam follows the story of a event triggering a series of mishaps during the Pooram festival in the village of Aranjali. The story has a thin plot but it showcases some glimpses of the Malayalam films Jalikattu and Angamaly Diaries. In other words, the conflict might seem simple here but it is topped with a lot of dark humour and some choatic action sequences which were truly designed for the big screen. The screenplay is the one which you would typically associate with Malayalam Cinema. While the initial screentime is dedicated to the introduction of characters and their backgrounds, the fun begins when their paths collide. In a brilliantly choreographed sequence involving a party having lunch, the tensions are escalated. The simmering tension is palpable here in the following scenes are well wherein the smallest of conflict turns into a big one. A minor shade of Ayyapannum Koshiyum was evident in the sequence as well. A word of caution here : The story is a one-liner and so if you are expecting a tale with twists and turns then this isn’t the film for you. Instead what you are served is a film filled with multiple raw action sequences which will keep you invested(ofcourse with a tinge of dark humour). In between you do get a glimpse of the festival involving an elephant which was quite refreshing to witness. The drama culminates into a brilliantly chaotic final act which has a nice little metaphor to the firecrackers too! Overall, a brilliantly penned screenplay!
