ASURAVITHU REVIEW

THEATRE:THRISSUR RAMDAS

DATE:06-01-12

TIME:3PM

I had gone to the movie Asuravithu with a lot of expectation on the young generation star Asif Ali.But my expectations were turned upside down as the movie proved that the actor couldn't prove his metal.

PLOT

The story begins as the once undominant underworld king SATAN(a creation A.K.SAJAN itself) son is borned and her mother played by lena drops her child infront of a church for her son to become a good life rather than following his fathers path.The child grown and became a young aspirant of becoming a priest in the seminary named Don.Now he is studying in a polyclinic too.Samvritha sunil plays the role of a boat manager who earns her daily wage through the rent of the people travelling in the boat.She also helps the police in sketching the picture of the criminals.Once Don becomes a witness of a murder of a leading officers wife.He was taken by the police and calls samvritha to draw the sketch of the killer.The killer was from a leading criminal family in the metro.Hence the police forces asif to change the name of the killer.But he sticks to his words.He has to undergo cruel punishments by the police.His mind has wavered with that incident.Mean while Baburaj plays the role of a priest who is the godfather of Don.His mother also has to witness a similar incident .He comes to know that his father was murdered by the attack of this people.He was invited by his fathers friend played by I M Vijayan invites him to play the boss of the new quotation company.His fight back against his enemies in an revengeful manner form the cruix of the story

PERFORMANCES

Asif Ali as the centre character was given ample screen shots but lack of a tight script made him feel the heat from the crowd.Although his intro scene has created thundering waves in the crowd by the second half of the movie he was receiving woes from the crowd.Although he had tried his level best to make justice to his character.His dubbing during some of the punch dialogues was not at all pleasing to the ear.wish him select a better luck next time by selecting a good script.

Baburaj as the priest was a TAILOR MADE role for him.Every single dialogue delivered by him was applaused by the crowd.If he was given ample screen space throughout the movie the fate would have been reversed.

Vijayaraghavan as the godfather of the enemy gang has made justice to his role.No one in mollywood industry can replace that role.

Lena had got a good character in the movie and was able to express her character with good dialogue delivery.

The new face who essayed the character of Messy has to be given special mention.

TECHNICALS

The lack of a tight script was the main villain in the movie.A.K.Sajan realy failed to give an enthrilling script;to say frankly it was pretty ordinary script.Direction was also pretty much average.
cinematography was interesting in parts.There was only one song which was an average one too.

IN A NUTSHELL

A movie was that could have made a good thrilling one has been destroyed by the poor scripting in the second half and an average performance from the title character.

Boxoffice verdict : FLOP
Tail :It was interesting to see a lot of Baburaj fans flexes near the theatre.
