Malayankunju Movie Review: A gripping survival drama
Evaluate: Anikuttan (Fahadh Faasil), an electrician by occupation lives in a village close to Wayanad along with his mom Shanta (Jaya Kurup). His father Radhakrishnan (Jaffer Idukki) had dedicated suicide as a result of his daughter ran away on her marriage day. This trauma haunts Anikuttan all the time and he appears down on the decrease caste and will get irritated by sounds, even an toddler’s cry disturbs him.
One monsoon, when it begins to rain closely, neighbours plan to go to the camp, however he refuses. And that night time a landslide hits and he will get trapped below. What occurs to Anikuttan, will he survive and what occurs to his mom kinds the remainder of the film.
Fahadh Faasil is great, the 2 sorts of traits, earlier than the landslide and publish landslide is portrayed by him with ease and perfection; the film belongs to him. Because the traumatised son, a brother who doesn’t need to forgive his sister, and his conduct as somebody powerful on the surface however very tender emotionally, is performed to perfection.
The film’s second half talks concerning the landslide that occurred a yr again at Rajamala close to Wayanad. Watching the scenes offers you shock waves, of how tough and the way traumatic it may need been for many who went via the ache. Put up-interval the film is like seeing loss of life head to head; it will get into your veins, and is improbable technically, visually and acting-wise. All the opposite characters dealt with their components fantastically, Indrans as Anikuttan’s uncle Surendran, Jaffer Idukki, and Rajisha Vijayan as Anikuttan’s sister did justice to their characters. Sajimon’s course is fantastic, and he has executed an awesome job along with his actors.
This can be a must-watch film for Fahad’s efficiency.
