Paruthiveeran Review Movie That Is
It is some time since Tamil cinema had an earthy movie that is realistically redolent of the pastoral predicaments and emotions. He was widely recognized in the film industry for his works in National Award-winning films such as Paruthiveeran, Aadukalam and Visaranai. Jacki also referred to as Jakie/Jackson/Jaxon or Jacky is an Indian film Production Designer and an Art Director in the South Indian Film Industry predominantly focusing on the Tamil Film Industry.
She is spunky and spirited and makes you wonder why big-time breaks are still eluding her.Ameer's success is not only on the script, story or casting side. Priya Mani, in a pared down de-glam look, is another revelation. He shows a lot of maturity in understanding the needs (of the script and the character). Karthi, as his brother Suriya said not long ago, has proved his acting credentials right at the start of his career while he (Suriya) took a few films to really warm up earnestly.Karthi's genes are filled with acting and it glows beautifully where he has handled the rather uncouth character of Veeran with finesse. Giving life to this charmingly boisterous village are the spirited team of Karthi, Priya Mani and company.
But Muthazhagu (Priya Mani) covets for Veeran as they had known each other since they were toddlers.Firstly, Veeran does not have the refinement to understand and appreciate the feelings of Muthazhagu. They don't baulk at anything and crime is not new to them. The trick and the success of the story lies in the small details that are rich and believable.Veeran (Karthi) and his uncle Chevvazhai are almost a law unto themselves and have no boundaries in the world.
Ameer, being from the same part where the film has been shot, has not allowed anything to cloud his vision. But still, her father is a stumbling block.It is a typical village subject that is complex in its simplicity, as it were. It takes one particular incident to make Veeran to understand the depth of Muthazhagu's mind.From then on he is a changed man and begins to reciprocate her ideas and ideals. Still, Veeran does not reciprocate her sentiments.
Her histrionics, body language, dialogue delivery and the can't-care-any-less attitude when it comes to opposition for her love are all portrayed brilliantly by Priya. Her delineation of Muthazhagu character is utterly cool and convincing. Ditto in the case of Priya Mani. But he sees it through with panache and poise. It is not the easiest of roles for him, especially when one considers that he has got such a heavy role to perform in his debut. He shows the confidence and casualness of a seasoned artiste.
The young age Veeran and Muthazhagu are very casual and authentic. Be it Saravanan or Ponanthinni (a close associate of Ponvannan), the inspector or even the hero's mother who appears just in a few frames, they leave an impression, and an indelible one at that. Not a single character has been wasted, however miniscule the role maybe. His dialogue delivery is just about perfect.Casting is a big strength of this film. He evokes laughter even when he appears during serious scenes.
