Directed by Blessy, the movie Aadu Viyan is directed by Prithviraj Sukumaran in the lead role. This movie is released today in Telugu. And let’s go into the review and find out to what extent this film has pleased the audience.
Story:
Najeeb (Prithviraj Sukumaran) leads a happy life with his wife Sainu (Amala Paul). On the advice of his friend, he decides to go to Dubai and earn money. In the background of some dramatic developments in this order, Najib will go to Dubai on illegal visa. As a result, Najib is stuck in the hands of a Caliph. Najib is forcibly taken to a desert to herd sheep. How many hardships did Najib go through to escape from that desert? How many obstacles did he cross to get back to his family? How did Najib change in the middle? That is the rest of the story.
Plus Points:
How will the lives of those who go to Dubai on stolen visas without education and understanding be there? How miserable will their lives be? The care taken by the director Blessi to reveal such real situations on the silver screen.. especially from the desert background.. the way the characters are dressed and the way Dubai scenes are shown.. as well as the emotion between the hero and heroines.. Blessi has established everything very well.
Prithviraj Sukumaran’s Journey to Taluk scenes, as well as the scenes that elevate the character, are great. And the scenes where Prithviraj Sukumaran escapes from the desert.. Similarly, some emotional scenes connect well emotionally. Prithviraj Sukumaran’s performance is also excellent. He acted well with his gestures. Amala Paul impressed as the heroine. Jimmy Jean-Louis, KR Gokul, Talib Al Balushi and Rick Abi and the rest of the cast also impressed with their performances in other lead roles.
Minus Points:
The main theme to be told in the story of this woman’s life as well as the director Blessy, who performed well in some scenes, was seen slowly in the remaining few scenes. Even though those scenes could have been made more interesting, director Blessy kept them simple. Also he drove the movie mostly with boring and slow drama sequence.
Moreover, he could not elevate the main emotion of the film as effectively. Disappointing with unnecessary lag scenes in between. Moreover, the treatment and screenplay of this woman’s life in the movie is not completely impressive. Overall the key scenes are good but do not drive the story forward. Increasing the length of the movie for those scenes is another minus point of the movie. Overall, the film went on with slow narration and boring scenes.
Technical Department:
Coming to the technical department.. AR Rahman’s music is good. Cinematography by Sunil K.S is a special attraction of the movie. He has shown many scenes in the movie very realistically and very beautifully with good visuals. But if the editor A. Srikar Prasad had reduced the extended scenes in the movie, it would have been a plus for the movie. The producers made this film without any compromise. The production values of the visual romance are good. It would have been better if director Blessi had made sure there was no lag in the script.
Verdict:
The journey of Najib, who went to Dubai and was cheated by the thief agents, and came back to his hometown, was emotionally impressive at some places. Also, the taking and acting of the actors in the movie are good. However, the screenplay is very slow, there are no commercial elements and the story is weak at some places. But, Prithviraj Sukumaran impressed with his performance. If not, the film will not impress at all.
