Shibu (2019)
A Musical laughter ride with good performance by lead actors
The film revolves around the life of an aspiring filmmaker Shibu, and the hurdles in his path Shibu was always intrigued by the world of filmmaking, thanks to the fact that his father, a theatre owner, used to take him along for the movies of his favourite 'Janapriyanayakan'. He nurtures an ambition to be a filmmaker and ventures to learn the craft at an institute.
His dreams, however, pose a threat to his love life. But Shibu is determined to get serious and prove to the world what he is capable of. That said, an unlikely incident lands him in a quagmire of sorts. As he proceeds to solve the puzzle, he meets Kalyani, a doctor, who becomes part of the unfolding of a few crazy events. Whether he emerges into a sensation or remains a loafer and a wannabe filmmaker for the rest of his life makes the rest of the story. The film, directed by Arjun Prabhakaran and Gokul Ramakrishnan, has newbie Karthik Ramakrishnan as Shibu and Anju Kurian as Kalyani, and guest appearances of well-versed actors such as Salim Kumar, Kochu Preman, Vinod Kovoor and the like. Though the central characters gives decent performance, they are supported with layered scripting. Film move us, when the hero faces tragic or happier moments. What might strike a chord is the music by Sachin Warrier, which is meticulously composed to suit the narrative.
Bannerghatta (2021)
The pain and angst of Ashiq will remain with us even after end of movie
Banneghatta is movie that has very limited character and limited location. But it never restricts the film's development. Story gradually build up into a tense atmosphere.
A Well crafted film. While watching the film we can feel every nuances of Aashiq, hero of the film. We are literally traveling with him. We can feel the day today struggle of a common man. Even through he has some grey shades in him and we are not shown any other character from his life still we can empathise with him deeply. That's the magic of this beautifully made film. The pain and angst of Ashiq will remain with us even after end of movie.
