Andhakaaram - Movie Review

Story - Andhakaaram is a thriller of unique concept. A blind library clerk, a psychologically disturbed cricketer, a stubborn psychiatrist are the lead characters whose lives are interlinked or crosses path of each other which establishes the premise of the story. How all 3 end up in this thriller is the story. 

Performances - All the cast excel in their respective roles with stellar performances. Arjun Das (Khaidi fame) gets a meatier role as a disturbed cricketer who gets to emote a lot of emotions and he is phenomenal. Vinod Kishan as blind person is good and believable. Kumar Natarajan as psychiatrist is cool yet menacing. 

Technicians - Photography, costumes and background score are apt. Casting team has done a good job. Direction is excellent with engaging and edgy narration. Screenplay wise this is one of the best movies we have seen. Of you're not attentive, you may not catch up with the story. Such is the complexity of the story. Only disappointment is the climax portion which has been narrated too quickly and we cannot grasp the content. Also the run time should have been trimmed a bit. 

Strength - Excellent screenplay, cast, photography, costumes

Weakness - Climax, run time

Analysis - A unique thriller with complex screenplay makes this movie a must watch. 

Rating - 3.25/5
