‘Bro Daddy’ movie review: Mohanlal, Prithviraj deliver underwhelming experience

However, in Prithviraj’s second directorial, Mohanlal appears to be more at ease and seems to be enjoying the role, compared to most of his recent outings

A short animation clip that accompanies the title sequence of Bro Daddy gives a hint of the kind of film that one is in for. In those few minutes, filled with some stale jokes, we are reminded multiple times of the very small age gap between John Kattadi (Mohanlal) and his son Eesho John Kattadi (Prithviraj). If that fact did not still get registered in your head, there is the rest of the movie where constant reminders of the same are served.

John and Anna (Meena) had married quite young, and now are eager for their son Eesho, an advertising professional, to get married. Eesho meanwhile is in a relationship with Anna (Kalyani Priyadarshan), the daughter of John’s best friend Kurian (Lalu Alex) and Elsy (Kaniha). But what could have been an easy alliance is complicated with two ‘accidents’ that threaten to derail all their plans.
