Warrier is known as one of most prolific actors in Malayalam cinema. So, when she leads a film, her performance remains worth looking forward to, if not anything else.

So, when these two National Award winning artists join hands, it's bound to be promising.
Trailer
What does the trailer show?
The trailer starts off with Warrier breathlessly rendering a lengthy dialogue involving Einstein's mass energy equation. We then see Jayaram explaining how he is taking over his grandfather's dream project titled Jack N' Jill, and is only waiting for a test subject to implement his invention. Soubin Shahir then enthusiastically chimes in promising to find that. What follows is a series of quirky montages.
Observation
Warrier takes the cake
Warrier's various avatars keep us intrigued. She rides a bike clad in a Bharatanatyam costume and donning an unkept hair. Then we see her gulping down a banana leaf full of meals. She also trashes a bunch of men effortlessly, giving a sense that the film will be in an extremely bizarre dimension. And undoubtedly, Warrier will steal the show with her charming presence.
