Mayakkam Enna , Tamil movie directed by Selvaraghavan, Dhanush and Richa playing lead roles, Ramji Kola Bhaskar GV completing the technical Team.
The story of Mayakkam enna is simple, Life of Wildlife Photographer, How the protagonist manages to Travel his life of being a Wild life photographer from a man with Photography as passion, Friends they have, the gal he accidently loves and marriages, plagiarism of his work, hatred, depression, suicide attempt, semi lunatic, power of women , pinnacle of life... This is the story as simple as candy.
With a close look to Selva’s previous films , there won’t be any difference of zero to hero kind of stories. This one is also a typical narration of his previous films. These films as his previous films are not for fun going audiences. Though the script calls for a mass, the narration and the way of filming describes as Class.
Straight away without re-viewing the story I emphasis on the positives and negatives of the movie. When talking about the positives , first thing comes to my mind is the narration and the way of film making which gives way scope to the actors, technicians to perform. That is very important and Selva has always mastered it. Ramji photography is classical as the story demands the same. The still shots and the montages when Dhanush explores forest are visual treat. Coloring and Tone is splendidly maintained throughout the movie. The Visuals in songs are classical. I don’t know why the entire movie was short in Bokeh style giving a blur or shallow depth to shots making it more appealing.
I Tweeted to Ravi K Chandran , stating the classical cinematography of Ramji. He replied stating that he was always Ramjis fan for his raw and real cinematography. That’s true. Paisa Vasool for the photography in the movie.
Dhanush proves he is a performer. His style and power of acting as a want to be photographer, sensual emotions, drunkenness, aspirations, shall do whatever to achieve goal feeling, psycho and lunatic acting, climax acceptance is performed with chanceless energy. He deserves applause.
Richa has seldom role to perform in first half and has shown tremendous power in second half. Displaying women power, and the acting is flawless. She is hot , thanks to cameraman.
Kola bhaskar has proved he is veteran. To master the art of editing with the shots given by Ramji is no mere work and Kola Bhaskar has challenged and won. I salute him.
Lack of BGM in first half makes you feel the screenplay is draggy but it is not so. Main theme music is played/re recorded multiple times in the movie with different tempos and levels is great. Songs suits in well and I liked it.
Places the dialogues are crossed over the limit, but that’s what typical Selva is. He makes for people next door and thats true.
Again , I confirm that this movie is not for Fun, its classic , its powerful.
My Rating : 4/5 Better than 7 AM review.
