There are
moments in your life when you want the
time to pause.. Same way while watching this movie `ORISSA’, you will go through many touching scenes which push you
into the depth of oblivion and the soul longing for a continuity of
the same.
Versatile director M.Padmakumar unleashes his
creative best in this movie evolving it as a poetic experience and at the same time lets
you to enjoy the thrills and
excitement of life in a backward North Indian village . However, When you
confront the hard hitting realities of the story it will make you uneasy as
well. So the gifted script writer G.S.
Anil deserves full credit for his neat attempt in presenting a gripping story.
It is a love
story between a malayalee policeman Christu Das(Unni mukundan) and an Oriyan
girl Suneyi(Saanika Nambiar) happened around two decades ago in the back drop
of rural Orissa. How Christu Das and suneyi get united at the end conquering
all hurdles, is the central point of the story.
The movie
discusses about the conflicts that women face, largely due to
prevalent traditional old age social norms like forced prostitution and very
ruthless feudalistic zamindari system in the village.
I must say my hats off to Unni Mukundan for his portrayal of righteous
policeman with a heart fraught with love and care. He is seductively
charming in many scenes and in emotional
sequences he is terrific. Saanika displayed unmatched enthusiasm and energy in
her debut performance . kaniha’s performance is restrained and natural.
Natural
beauty cliqued by the camera lens will leave you dumbfounded.
The movie is
a total entertainer and will surely win the hearts of mollywood viewers,
especially the family audience.
