Ok,, So finally HD (none other my Hubby Darling :-))decided to take me to a movie after a long insistence from my side. But we being on the two extremes of movie buffs, we’d to choose within the constrained options to satisfy both our akin. Amidst lot of thoughts juggling, HD finally roped in to watch Madhavan’s recent horror-flick movie Yaavarum Nalam half-heartedly. Should definitely say it wasn’t completely a bad idea. I was so engrossed about this movie for some reasons:
It’s been a real long time since Maddy aka Madhavan’s had a Tamil release.. I should say, he’s one of the very finest actors who would portray the roles given to him in a very neat and decent style and does a complete justification to the characters he plays.
The Genre of the movie: I am that kind of a filmi fan who would like to watch a varied flavor of movies and has been long time since I’d watched a horror movie.
And that made me to insist on watching this movie. Ok, did it fulfill my hope?? I can say yes because the film is refreshingly different unlike the usual run-of-the-mill love stories or the vengeful films. There were no "ghostly" figures or some kind of voice which will frighten the audience. And the ghosts had come in different medium to scare us away. There were no caricatures of a person created jus to jolt the viewers. And on the performances area; Maddy has shouldered the movie with zeal. With subtle expressions on his face in romancing his wife, getting scared when he experiences strange things, in comedy sequences, worrying for his family members, Maddy enthrals the audience. That was a treat to watch him. Not to forget about Saranya who has portrayed the TV -Serial -mania -hit mother with an ease. Her portrayal of the character is quite natural that we can as well relate her to any person in our family.
On the flip side, yes, there were few flaws which we are at times quite inane, but no movie can be made blemish less and this movie is no exemption.
In a nutshell, the movie is worth the watch, at least for proletarian movie watchers like us, who would really not be concerned about how the movie was created.
Ok, now I will have to mention about my HD’s choice movies. He’s one person who likes to watch only the feel-good factor movies His objective of watching a movie is jus for the leisure and to him the movie HAS to end on a "they-lived-happily –ever- after" note. There must not even be an ounce of violence or this kind of horror. So, that would recapitulate on the kind of pressure I would have to put on to make him accept to watch the movie. It was really mirthful to see HD cuddle on to the seat with his hands closing his ears with "please-do-not kill –me" look on his face even and clinging on to my hands for support to the scenes which weren’t even a bit scary. It was rather a treat to watch him this way…:-)
