Congratulations Miss Anitha Menon 1992 - Suspecting husband and a silly Zainuddin



Congratulations Miss Anitha Menon is a 1992 Indian Malayalam film, directed by Thulasidas, starring Siddique and Sai Kumar in the lead roles.



Prakash, played by SaiKumar, a successful businessman, becomes suspicious of his wife Anita, played by Leena Nair. He receives an anonymous letter that indicates that she has an illicit relationship with another man. 


Played as a workoholic and a disciplined and pricipled man, Prakash forgets all rules and even the marital duties and communication with his wife. The letter however wakes him up.




The movie looked promising and packed a bunch of jokes with the ever funny and exuberant physical comedy of Zainuddin and the exasperation of Sudeep played by Siddique. However unlike Thulasidas’ earlier movies, this one lacks momentum. The story keeps stalling at the imaginary romance of Sudeep and Anitha Siddique. The constant suspicion that Prakash has, keeps bringing down the movie. 

An easy quick watch on a gloomy day. Zainuddin's witty replies were the highlight for me.
