Premam Poojyam is the ­landmark 25th film of Lovely Star Prem and as the title indicates it is a romantic story, but what surprises the viewers is, the story has been narrated without commercial trappings.

It is the story of two medical practitioners. Srihari comes to the city to study medicine. Like in every story, his life in college days – his hostel life and ragging – are portrayed and he falls in love with Sherlin. He spots an angel in her and madly loves her. The girl's father gives a green signal for their relationship, what happens once her father passes away forms the crux of the story.

Review
Prem appears in seven to eight shades and it is a treat to see him in cool avatars. His saint-like acting wins the hearts of his fans. Brinda Acharya has made a promising debut. Master Anand impresses the audience with his one-liners. As always, Sadhu Kokila breaks the funny bones of the audience. At the same time, Aindrita Ray and Anu Prabhakar's characters do not add value to the storyline.

On the flip side, the run-time of the film is a major worry. The screenplay and editing should have been a little better and 12 songs add to its woes. More surprisingly, there are no hummable songs.

However, the major plus point or attraction is the cinematography. Every frame is beautiful in the film. Director A Raghavendran has neatly presented the lives of doctors, but the execution should have been better. 

With lesser duration, Premam Poojyam would have become a better product. Overall, it has turned out to be an average film which might be enjoyed by the fans of Prem.

In short, the visually-rich film fails to engage.
