Fakt Mahilao Maate follows the story of the protagonist who gets a superpower of hearing the inner voices of women. The story right at its concept level is a winner. I for one would love this superpower as well, lets admit it we all would. But more importantly, hearing and understanding are two different concepts, something which the film addresses successfully. The screenplay of about 135 minutes is about the ideal length for this film which is an absolute laugh riot.

The drama though opens on a slight wobbly note wherein it took me atleast 10 minutes to settle into the drama. Perhaps the world building was at fault here with multiple tracks in the story being introduced through the various characters. But soon the film does find its groove as you start to understand the dynamics between the protagonist and the characters around him. This formulates some of the most hilarious moments in the film.

What the writing does well here is that it doesn’t seem rushed and addresses the minor issues related to the protagonist in a hilarious yet organic manner. The twist in the tale is introduced almost 40 minutes into the film which makes for an even more hilarious ride and added confusion. I have often seen the writing getting dramatic from such nicely setup situations. But here the drama is nice and breezy with some well integrated plot points in the narrative.

There are nicely woven heartfelt moments too in the screenplay. The multiple subplots are interesting and definitely keep you invested. On the slight downside, things in the second hour does get a tad too repetitive but it is the humour that stays intact and true to the film. The drama does get slightly dramatic towards the final act but then smartly lightens the mood almost immediately making for a fun filled viewing. Overall, the screenplay is light and breezy packed with many moments of laughter.
