Meyatha Maan Review

Cast: Vaibhav, Priya Bhavani Sankar, Indhuja, Vivek Prasanna

Music: Santhosh Narayanan

Director: Ratna Kumar

Meyatha maan is Idhyam Murali’s (Vaibhav) one side love story. This comes as tag line in the title card. Idhyam Murali is madly deeply in love with Madhu (Priya Bhavani Shankar) for three years but never confessed to her just like the hero of ‘Idhayam” movie. Hence the name.

Murali calls his friend Vinoth (played by Vivek prasanna) and tells that he is going to commit suicide. At first Vinoth takes it lightly, later gets nervous and attempts to stop him. He goes to Madhu’s house and manages to stop Murali’s attempt. Later Vinoth, Madhu and his friend sit around a table. You might expect a flash back about how Murali stalked Madhu, but the director does not do it. Again after sometime, director teases us with a scene where it could cut to flashback.

The film is more like a continuation to ‘Idhayam’ movie. Vaibhav is brilliant on screen, especially when he stammers while talking to Madhu. This film is Vivek Prasanna’s career best and the friendship between him and Murali is delightful to watch. The film’s best funniest moment is when he proposes and the interval block which runs for 10 minutes single shot. Comedy is not forced, so the film is throughout hilarious.

The love between Murali and Madhu is good and the tension built towards the climax is genuine. A small kid who works in Vinoth’s bike shop is equally funny compared to Vivek Prasanna. The film goes as musical. Each song is different and it add flavours to the film. I loved the break up song that has random lyrics.

Verdict: Hilarious musical.

Arjun Reddy Review

Cast: Vijay Deverakonda, Shalini, Rahul Ramakrishna, Music: Radhan Direction: Sandeep Vanga When the film gets over and while you walk out of the theatre have you heard a few people saying “It’s a normal same old story” (No one did for this film). Arjun Reddy is such a film with same old story. Arjun Reddy (played by Vijay Deverakonda, about whom I will talk in a while) is a topper in his medical college and a short tempered guy with zero anger management. He meets a first year girl, Preethi (played by Shalini) and they fall in love. What happens to Arjun after his love failure is what explored in a unique way. So this not a film that you can expect every year. This is a film that has a beautiful narration enthralling you for 3 hours. The initial scenes when Arjun frequently visits Preethi are a little surprising as Preethi never utters a word whenever he visits her. You start thinking what kind of love it is. But the love that Arjun has on Preethi is explained in...

Velaikkaran Review

Cast: Sivakarthikeyan, Nayanthara, Fahad Fazil, Rohini Music: Anirudh Direction: Mohan Raja Mohan Raja decides to narrate the core problem from the first scene. The narration dialogue in the opening relating genetic disorder and social hierarchy tells the director has brought us another social issue. The problem which Arivu (Sivakarthikeyan) face gets dedicated attention. The story and screenplay is written around the problem which get rids of unnecessary contents. Yet we get a duet song post interval which seems misfit. Arivu’s character is brilliantly written and its Sivakarthikeyan’s best in his career. He opens a radio station for his slum and he wants to awake his slum people from certain misguided things. This trait becomes huge as film progress and now he cares for whole nation. The stories inside the slum and the main problem get linked in a marvellous way. The scene that relates two different professions is amazing. The film has many characters and not ...

DHURUVANGAL PATHINARU(D-16) REVIEW: Cast : Rahman, Ashwin Kumar Director : Karthik Naren Music: Jakes Bejoy A scene where Rahman asks two guys “ short film title enna?” “Pradhi(Director’s short film)”, replies the guys. Karthik Naren, a 22 year Coimbatore guy learning film making with short films and making his debut venture, Dhuruvangal Pathinaru. D-16 is about a cop (Rahman) solving a murder. In 1994, Pulp fiction, a film by Tarentino was popularly spoken for non linear narration. In 2016, D-16 will set a great example for such non linear narration. The narration does not spoon feed the details, but lets the audience do the thinking. You can find yourself thinking with Rahman during the film. The amount of detailing in the script makes it flawless without any logical loopholes. Rahman’ s acting glorify Karthik’s vision. Every other characters has a very crucial roles in the story and each of them had done their justice. The sounds and background music b...
