A tale on fiscal irresponsibility - Living beyond one's means
7 December 2012
Dr. Arun Kumar leads a flashy life in Dubai, living each day to its fullest. Trouble is, he's living today by borrowing from tomorrow. He has amassed a staggering debt in his playboy lifestyle, but continues to charm his way out of short term problems. But life starts to catch up to him.

The story covers his romance with a coworker, flirtation with a rich socialite, played by Samvritha, and reluctant marriage to a naive village girl from Kerala as he gets deeper and deeper into debt.

The fiscal irresponsibility portrayed is simply outrageous, but sadly, realistic. Dubai does seem to tempt one to live beyond one's means.

The title refers to the diamond necklace belonging to the rich socialite, something that Dr. Arun gets several opportunities to steal. That would cover his debt partly, but Arun is not a thief... But how long could he last before giving in to temptation and cross that threshold?

Overall, a very well crafted, down to earth movie - one of the better releases from Malayalam this year.
