Its in the fictional hamlet of Krokrankara that Kamal sets his new film Utopiyayile Rajavu on, where C P Swathanthran (Mammootty) has been striving hard to get the statue of his freedom fighter dad Parameshwara Pillai (Joy Mathew) installed in front of the Panchayat. Aiding him in his venture is his close associate Pindaani (Sreekumar), and when his strategies do not bear fruit as expected, Swathanthran and Pindaani move over to the Secretariat , where Swathanthran launches a fast to achieve his objective. The social commentary in Utopiyayile Rajavu lacks the sting that makes a satire enjoyable, and suffers from a slack narrative that is brought in by its nondescript script. There are instances galore in it where it seems like things have trailed off midway through, and where the narrative mode goes for a toss time and again.
