The film 'komali' meaning 'Joker' starts off with a scene where a schoolboy gets hit by a speeding lorry while trying to save his girl friend who happens to be his classmate. Later after 16 years he wakes up from a coma and gets into a situation of being a digital handicap. He gets rejected by the same girl whose life he had tried to save in his school days. He also gets mobbed for trying to behave in an old-fashioned romantic style with another girl whom he met on a matrimony website. He later decides to get a job but the interviewers mock at his condition and reject him. In a dejected state he takes up the job of a watchman in an art museum run by the same girl whom he had met on the matrimony site. On a certain occasion he saves the art gallery from getting robbed by thieves and restores the stolen good at the museum exhibit. To his utter shock the stolen good happens to be none other than his family artifact handed over by his ancestors from a royal heritage. He now gets into a dilemma where he is unable to prove that property to be his own. A local politician buys the artifact from the museum and to progress in his career promises to handover the property to the archaeological society of India. Now the hero is left with a choice to help his close friend from being evicted from his house bought on bank loan. He fights to prove his ownership of the property owned by the politician. He tries video recording his conversation with the politician using a button camera but fails due to a small short circuit happened due to sweat. He then tries to instill fear on the politician by sounding signs of bad omen wherever the politician happens to go. The politician tries to appease his deity by performing a ritual at one of the famous temples. At that time our hero goes to the politician's house to smuggle the artifact by sweet talking his wife. But later he realizes that she had been pregnant all the time and takes her to the hospital. He eventually manages to convince the politician that he indeed was a good-hearted man all the while. The politician thanks him for his timely help and lets him take back his ancestral property. Finally, it is revealed that the girlfriend had been video recording all of the proceedings of attaining the artifact and was silently uploading them on youtube. Now after getting multiple positive responses to his video the hero becomes a youtube star and somehow saves his close friend by paying his mortgage to the bank from the money that he earned through sale of the artifact. Nalla timepass padam and a very natural acting by Jayam Ravi. A seven out of ten movie.
