“Ee boot canal inte bhagathottu poyitumundu… thirichu vannitumundu…. thirichu vanna print angottu poyathinu apekshichu valare aazhathilaanu pathinjirikkunnathu.. Poya aal thirichu vannapol bhaaramulla entho undaayirunu… Which means he was carrying something” Suresh Krishna and others were stunned on screen. So was I when I watched this sequence in Memories first day in theaters. Because I had […]
“I don’t want to be known or tagged as a Superstar”. When Prithviraj told these words in 2010 , we mocked at him . We called it an amatuerish and arrogant comment by someone who still had to travel long to say anything like that. 6 years later as 2015 ends , we realize how […]
“Do you think you would ever have a future with Moideen” asks Kanchana’s mother in a scene that struck me a lot in Ennu Ninte Moideen. Kanchana gasps, breaks into tears, takes few seconds and replies -” I promise you. I would not spoil the lives of my siblings. I will wait for any long […]
The first thought when I watched Nivin Pauly and his slow motion scenes in Premam that as per reports are sending theaters frenzy was how lucky was he to have such a director-writer. Alphonse Puthren knew both the strengths of Nivin and also the pulse of the audience. He knew the exact number of mass […]
After Jigarthanda and now Kaaviya Thalaivan – the next time Siddharth sits in for a discussion with the film makers , his first question might be – ‘Does this movie too has an antagonist or second hero who could shine more?’ Siddharth does a great job in Kaaviya Thalaivan especially in the climax but not […]
A lot has been said about 7th day’s revelation in the climax that many found as one which was easy to guess. I think for today’s viewers who have read and watched so many mystery novels and movies of all possible variations in many languages over the years , there is perhaps only so much […]
“The most popular and sought out young actor of Malayalam Cinema” – that’s one tag that has been always safe with Prithviraj throughout his career. Still there are two aspects where he had been rather unlucky – One that he was not in the industry when some of our greatest filmmakers like Padmarajan, Bharathan and […]
Everytime someone tells me that Prithviraj cant handle a lighthearted romantic role, there is one movie that I point them towards to. Its Mozhi. I have always wondered why no writer or director in Malayalam could give Prithviraj a beautiful character like Mozhi’s Karthik. Interestingly apart from Vargam and Vasthavam, two of Prithviraj’s best characters […]
2013 gave us a lot to cherish as far as Malayalam movies were concerned. There were many sparkling individual performances , fantastic scripts that held our attention throughout and brilliant narrations by the directors. There were also many memorable movie scenes – ones which we are definitely going to revisit a lot in coming years. […]
2013 has been a great year for many artists in Malayalam. Fahad Fazil has strengthened his position as a respected actor with commendable performances in movies like Annayum Rasoolum, Artist and North 24 Kaatham. Dulquer Salman should be a happy young man with his ABCD being a huge success and ‘Neelakashavum Pachakadal..’ critically acclaimed. I […]
