Malaravadi arts club...



Saw the movie just last night... was a real treat... with  a lot of familiar characters and mannerisms and a wonderful story...
Yes it had a beautiful theme , thread and a good screenplay something which had been lacking in the malayalam film industry for quite some time...
And add to it the fact that it was conceived by a debutant, Vineeth Sreenivasan adds to its sheen.
If there was anything lacking in the movie twas experience both for the lead characters and the director. But as the great CHNAKYA once said ” no one is born great... only his deeds decide how he goes down in the history books” (err slightly modified, but i guess you caught the drift).
Some may question my evaluation of the movie, but my opinions are my own and i do not wish to impose them on anyone else.
There were several characters that caught my eye and helped me identify them to very real life characters... The introductory sequence of salimkumar and his pretences reminded me dearly of a  close friend of mine( whom i won’t name here but will definitely give sufficient clues as he is an upcoming  leader and the back bone of DYFI’s ullelam unit). The hand gestures and facial expressions of salimkumar were so similar that i was unable to control my laughter.
Oh god i miss my friends...  miss my late night roamings through the college campus... late night foodings from double x fast food, the nights spend laughing and smiling and making fun of each other in the middle of the kuttimukku paddy fields... the last minute trip planning and nights spend at the various beaches of thrissur district... the carefree life and freedom and fun and happiness... and the joy of doing what you loved most in this world rather than taking part in this blind rat race called modern life and hifi living...
I always wondered why elders said that their academic days were the most memorable moments in their life. As some wise men said somewhere... you only understands the value of something only and when you have lost it... and i guess  they were right...
