3. Oru Jaathi Jathakam¡¯s plot summary

Oru Jaathi Jathakam follows the story of Jayesh, a 38-year-old man from North Malabar, who is desperately seeking a wife but is stuck in his old-fashioned views about marriage. He continuously rejects potential brides because none of them meet his traditional expectations. His life takes a strange turn when a palm reader predicts that this period will be the worst of his life and warns him that he will face ridicule and trouble ahead.

As Jayesh encounters a series of challenges and meets several women along the way, he begins to confront his narrow mindset and realize the flaws in his thinking.

4. Oru Jaathi Jathakam¡¯s review

The Times of India rated the film 2.5 out of 5, and a part of their review read, ¡°OJJ feels like one of those Dileep films of the ¡®90s with body shaming and misogynistic jokes, with the difference that the joke is on the guy. The problem is that the film labours the point with old-fashioned humour, which doesn¡¯t always click. It has some lighthearted, good moments and lessons, but the second half just stretches out endlessly. This film feels a bit old-fashioned, like Jayesh¡¯s views.¡±
