Njan Innocent

Njan Innocent is a collection of interesting memoirs written by actor Innocent. Most of them are about his childhood days at Irinjalakuda, and the various funny incidents narrated in these stories reminded me of Bobanum Moliyum comics. There are a few articles about his contest in the municipal elections, and about his days as a matchbox factory owner at Davangere, all told with a slight touch of Basheer.

The moving memoir about Louis, his childhood friend, shows us that Innocent is good in narrating not just humorous incidents. His "capability to narrate intense experiences of life in a humorous way", as KM Mathew writes in his avatharika, is what makes this book a nice reading experience.

Like his name, his comedy is also inncoent at most times. Still remember his role as that of a North Indian political leader (a dig at Congress? ) in the film "sandesham"

Innocent: Hey Ram..Ram

Mamukkoya: Nethave..Ivide Rum onnum kittilla

Did he talk about how he fainted when he heard he had won a lottery to realize that he had been cheated ? :-) (Kilukkam)
