Dhirshyam - Visual Treat

There was a hype on the latest Malayalam movie “ Drishyam”, eagerly waited and finally saw it on 11th Feb, immediately thought of sharing. After several years, have a feel that I watched a film worth every element.



There is a proverb in Tamil “ Poovodu serntha naarum manakum”  similarly the association with Lal epitomized others performance. Some of the performance are
  1. When his elder daughter is being interrogated in school
  2.  Varun’s father in the climax
  3.  Lal’s reaction to his assistant when his routine is being questioned. And many more
  4.  Even Lal’s eyes plays crucial role in couple of close shots
This movie has got all flavor a bit of family entertainer, lots of thriller element and tons of visual treat. Initially you will relax during the first 30 mins and slowly come towards the edge and last 30 mins only on the edge. All those nail biters please carry plenty of pop-corns during break else will suffer like me.

All through 2013 he was no where and suddenly at the beginning of 2014 the entire country is talking about his film and wants to remake in their regional language.

Die hard fans of Kamalhassan please do not watch Dhrishyam. Now Mr Lalettan has set a huge bench mark for Kamal to climb and people who have seen Malayalam version will not be able to digest if fails to touch the scale set my Lal.

The success of the remake also depends on the choice of other characters and especially the one who is going to play Kalabhavan Shajon. For those who are not aware of Shajon is a comedian and in this film his portrayal is different and every one will hate this character. Kamal should find a person like Mahanadhi Thulukanam.

Two things surprise me
  1. How can Mamutty reject such a project? FYI He was approached first and due to dates it went to Lalettan and he grabbed with both hands.
  2. For the Tamil version Rajini was approached and as usual he wanted to change the script and hence Kamal was approached.
First one it was a blunder by Mega star whereas it would have been a mistake if Super star had accepted. If one person who can match Lal in his performance is none other than Kamal.

Though the glimpse of the script is from Tamil movie "Vazhukku Enn 18/9" but different in all aspects and a clean entertainer. Value for Money.

Enough said about this movie..it is time to go and watch in the screens..
