Movie Review: Soorarai Pottru!

Image
Assalamualaikum my dear reader friends!! Today I've made up my mind to emerge with my version of observations on this OTT superhit Soorarai Pottru ... The movie had been making quite an impressive ramp walk even before it was released on the silver screen... This movie about an angry young man namely "Nedumaaran" (Soorya) is more about flying ambitions than just a caricature of Rowthiram ! The movie has got all the ingredients of what is synonymous to be 'Mani Ratnam' to us... I was wonder struck later to discover that this phenomenal product is the making of a director-screenplay writer, Sudha Kongara Prasad,  who used to be once an associate director with Mani Ratnam. Hats off to Sudha for making such a spellbinding entertainer!! Nedumaaran is an epitome of characters from Mani Ratnam movies like Guru, Yuva, etc. On the other hand, "Bommi" (Aparna Balamurali) reminds me of many 90's female actors like Madhubala, Shobana, and even Jyothika, at times...

I miss the world..!

  I miss the world. I miss the world I was born in. I miss the seas; I miss the airs; I miss the heat I was baked in. I miss the roads; I miss the rails; I miss the skies that I fly in. I miss the you; I miss the me; I miss the way I was human. I am now astray! I sit still and stay! I am being treated like a vermin. Let me go free. Let there be glee. For the earth's a tree.. That loves the growing spree.. And is as forgiving as a woman. ~By Your missing friend, Rasheeda Madani.
