Pranayamanithooval

Pranyamanithooval (പ്രണയമണിത്തൂവൽ) is a 2002 Malayalam film directed by Thulasidas, starring Vineeth Kumar, Jayasurya, and Gopika (in her film debut). This movie is a remake of 1999 Tamil movie Nee Varuvai Ena.

Plot
The movie has three young people - Vinod, Balu and Meera - as its central characters. Vinu is a young college student and Meera is his girlfriend. Their marriage was almost fixed when Vinu died in an accident and his eyes were transplanted to Balu. Meera tries to see Balu to see Vinu's eyes, but Balu misunderstands and thinks that she loves him. Meera tells him the truth and his friends give him an idea to make Meera fall in love with him. They tell him to create a rumor that he is going to commit suicide by jumping off a building. While standing there, Balu accidentally falls and is admitted to the hospital. The doctor tells Meera that Balu is dead, but after they realize that he is alive, Meera falls in love with Balu.

Reception
A critic from BizHat wrote that "The film lacks logic or sense. One wonders why Thulasidas did such an idiotic film? As far as the leading artists- Jayasurya shines more than the hero Vineeth. Vineeth is once again a disaster after Kanmashi. He lacks screen presence and the new girl Gopika has to go mile". A critic from Chithram wrote that "The main flaw with the film lies with the script by Kaloor Dennis".
