Thira - A beautiful wave.

To watch the movie, observe it and write all the positives and negatives as the movie goes on, that was the plan I had in my mind when I got in for Thira at Escape cinemas, Chennai. But Vineeth Sreenivasan had other plans, to keep me on the edge of my seat. I was literally on the edge of the seat when the movie reached its interval. There was only one question going through my mind at that time, how could he transform, transform from the director who gave us a cute romantic story and give us such a mind boggling thriller. Thira was that, a thriller, one of its kinds, I cannot remember another movie from our industry that has taken up such an issue other than maybe Calcutta News. But Calcutta News lacked something in my view, but Thira, was complete. Shobhana, what a way to make a comeback. No need of countless posters or paper articles to make a grand comeback, a great role like this would do. What more need i say about her acting. Dhyan Sreenivasan, you just made a dream debut,

A wonderful journey to go on- North 24 kaatham

Some movies just make you want to write some good words about them and this road movie by Anil Radhakrishnan Menon is one such movie. What makes the movie special ? To start with, it’s a road movie, Yes i know NPCB was one too. But both are of different classes. One is about a couple of friends going on a road trip to find the answers for life and to win one of the friends girlfriend back but this movie starts off as a story of a clean freak who just lives for himself and no one else. And the transformation of that clean freak to a normal, rather an extra ordinary person is how the story goes on. In a more poetic way, the way in which a butterfly breaks from its cocoon and becomes free, that explains the state of the protagonist in the movie. Don’t take my writings in the wrong way and write this off as a serious movie. Even being a sensible movie this gives us some jovial and light hearted scenes. Sreenath Bhasi once again proves that he is a delight to be watched on screen , hi
