To avoid capture, Gopi hides the stolen chain in Veena's bag, but it mysteriously disappears, leading Gopi to believe Veena still has it. He decides to follow her on a train journey.

The film's producer Suresh Kumar was in deep debt during the post-production stages of the film. An Ernakulam court had ordered a stay on Vettam unless Suresh Kumar pays the due of Rs 64 Lakhs Shenoys Cinemax. Dhanya theatre in Trivandrum had also advanced Rs 50 Lakhs to the producer on condition that the film would be screened at their chain of theatres in Quilon and Changanacherry.[10] Jyothika was initially cast as Veena but due to scheduling conflicts she was replaced by Bhavna Pani.[11] A major part of the film was set and filmed at Howard Johnson's The Monarch Hotel in Ooty.


The songs were composed by the duo Berny-Ignatius and the film score was composed by S.P. Venkatesh. Lyrics were written by Rajeev Alunkal, B.R. Prasad and Nadirsha. "Oru Kathilola Njan Kandilla", "Mazhathullikal Pozhinjeedumi", "I Love you December "were chartbusters upon release.[12]


The film was released on 20 August 2004 on the occasion of Onam along with other films like Kazhcha, Natturajavu, and Sathyam. The film was average hit at the box office. The film was made with a budget of 2.25 crores. However, the film was only able to collect 4 crore at the box office in its final run, according to a report by Sify.com.[1] It gained popularity after TV release and is considered as one of the movie with high repeat value.


In the movie Vettam (meaning Light), there is a scene where Dileep sits next to a girl who is scared of flying. He plays a few pranks on her, but later puts a stolen necklace into her bag so that he would not get caught by the police officer (Radha Ravi) traveling in the same flight. At this point, you would be wondering where have I seen this before? (Answer: French Kiss). You would also be wondering, since this seems to an plagarized movie, would the director be Priyadarshan? (Answer: yes).


In Malayalam Film Industry, there are few director-actor combinations that produce the same kind of movies one after the other like Rajasenan-Jayaram, Shaji Kailas-Suresh Gopi, Priyadarsan-Mohanlal etc. Priyadarsan is very picky about his heroes that he always picks Mohanlal. So it was quite the news when he decided to cast Dileep in his new movie.


But then he had also promised Veena that he would help her reuinte with her fiancee. So they both land in a hotel in Karnataka where the engagement is going to happen. They mingle with both families which consists of who and who of Malayalam comedians and actors like Nedumudi Venu, Jagathi Sreekumar, Cochin Haneefa, Innocent, Jagadish, Mamu Koya, Kalabhavan Mani, Bindu Panikker, Sukumari and Janardhananan. What follows is a sequence of mistaken identities which is really a laugh riot.


There is nothing great about the story as it is a rehash of French Kiss plus various other Priyadarsan movies. It has the mandatory man-woman fight (Chitram) and various people with mistaken identities (Chandralekha, Kakkakuyil) etc. The song picturization does not have the Priyadarsan touch and it seems to have been shot in a hurry. The songs too are not memorable.


Bhavana Puri as Veena does a decent job and she has to be commended for holding up in the midst of such a stellar cast. Rest of the talent do their job well.It is a decent comedy worth watching. (Unless you want to watch it few years down the line remade in Hindi).


already made in Hindi a few years back :). Pyar tho hona hi tha with Ajay Devgan and Kajol in it. dunno who the director was, but its kinda sad to see a director like Priyan dishing out rehashed stuff.
