One of the main characters in Sunday Holiday lands a job in a new town. Instead of negotiating the remuneration, he turns it down completely just because. While you spend more than two hours wondering why he did that and how he's making his ends meet, the film scrambles itself and tries to project few things about human relationships, romance, fate, and the hardship of door-to-door sales. Asif Ali is hungover as the salary-hater whose life changes for good when he meets another salesperson played jubilantly by Aparna Balamurali. Together, they fool around a bit, as they gradually get closer and surprise each other. An irrelevant side story involves a bag containing wads of cash that travels aimlessly and makes you wonder what's going on really. Comedy man Dharmajan Bolgatty is at his usual play and the existence of characters played by him and Siddique and Sudheer Karamana are what makes Jis Joy's Sunday Holiday a pointless film. The only good parts are Balamurali's performance and the climax that is slightly off-beat for what it succeeds. While you can catch the former in Dileesh Pothan's Maheshinte Prathikaram, there's no need to invest your time just for the latter. Sunday Holiday is average at best at saying nothing specific. TN.
