The title character of the movie Farhana is this extremely naive woman who lives with her husband and family, who are extremely conservative Muslims. The issue I had with the film was that this naivety is visible in the way the film presents the character and her conflicts. With the screenplay jumping from one tone… Continue reading Farhana Review | A Loud and Generic Thriller That Failed to Utilize Its Potential

Suzhal: The Vortex
Suzhal: The Vortex may not be that entirely foolproof thriller that you will appreciate for its attention to detail. But this series from Pushkar -Gayathri knows how to play the game emotionally.

Kadaikutty Singam that came last year from Pandiraj was a massive commercial success despite being an extremely old school family drama. I personally haven’t enjoyed that film at all and for me, Namma Veettu Pillai from Pandiraj was just one more Xerox copy of Kadaikutty Singam. With so many characters and cheesy melodrama happening frequently… Continue reading Namma Veettu Pillai
