Kallanum Bhagavathiyum Movie Review: A story that falls short – TOI Etimes
Story: Bhagavathy involves reside with a Christian thief and brings modifications in his life
Evaluate: Kallanum Bhagavathyum has a promising, if considerably old school premise. When a thief tries to steal the idol of the goddess Bhagavathy and nearly drowns within the course of, she is available in individual to rescue him. She then finally ends up residing in his home for per week, until her idol is consecrated on the new temple and she will reside there once more.
It might have labored out to be a loveable movie, with Bhagavathy lodging, with out rancour, in the home of a thief who’s Christian. Mathappan, performed by Vishnu Unnikrishnan, and Mokksha as Bhagavathy have a pleasant chemistry, nevertheless it’s not used to its potential, and whereas there’s, apparently, mutual love and respect, she isn’t developed as a guiding pressure for good in his life. In fact, he turns over a brand new leaf, nevertheless it’s not clear how.
As a substitute, we simply get a number of typical comedy scenes, the place Mathappan’s buddy thief tries to monetise the goddess’s presence and an oracle tries to exorcise her. The humour doesn’t actually work on this movie written by KV Anil and directed by East Coast Vijayan.
The romance between Mathappan and a lady he bumps into in a graveyard feels compelled. Principally, the characters haven’t been thoughtfully developed, with storylines falling brief. The non secular tolerance/acceptance side additionally feels a bit problematic for these occasions.
