Om Shanti Oshana
It would not have been no less apt if the
title of the movie was “oh Nazriya oh”. She is just super cute and carries the
entire movie on her shoulders. Her character requires her to walk on the thin
line separating hamming and being cute and she delivers with panache. Her
innocence is so charming that when we come out of the movie hall we are left to
wonder if this movie would have worked with any other current heroine at the
helm.
Jude Anthany Joseph has to be applauded for
the courage to tell the simple love story of his debut movie from the girl’s
perspective. The entire movie is laced with feel goodness and spiced with witty
one-liners and so the flaws in characterization or goof ups regarding medical
education set up – an intern having viva exam, being tutored on first year
subjects etc – can be easily forgiven. The new crop of actors has given a
decent performance and Vinod Illampally’s cinematography has gifted some
stunning visuals.
It’s heartening to see new original ideas
of story-telling being tried and the bar of standard being raised in Malayalam
movies.
