Probably there wouldn't have been a better time for the release of a film like this which deals with much discussed human-god craze .
the films revolves around sumangala played by kavya madavan , a house wife running a small hotel who struggles to meet the two ends of life . the major hurdle in her life is her alcoholic husband (irshaad) who makes their life miserable with his drinking habbit .
things reach a saturation point when she takes on the avatar of a human god just to bring back her husband to normalcy but at a later stage due to circumstances she is forced to become a full time god . what follows is the repercussions she has to face and how she gets back her life .
firstly a huge round of applause for renjith who has been credited with the story of the film which is highly relevant , debatable and had the potential to molded as a classic but what lets down is a inconsistent screenplay which borders between sheer brilliance and mediocrity . there are quite a few scenes which hook you to the film like the one where the kid goes missing from bar but then there are others which might put you off and it is this oscillation in script which make you feel that it could have been better.
then there are enough loop holes which should have been given due care while handling a subject like this
film is modeled as a social satire and most topical issues have been checked through. the human god syndrome in our educated society have been given a critical take which is commendable but what the film lacks is the right humor especially when it is touted as a black humor .
director priyanandan has treated the subject the as a commercial product and have not given a arty feel . though made with lots of sincerity and maturity , on a overall look it lack enough grip to be applauded as a great effort as few scenes are poorly executed .
with the subject being simple there is no much scope for cinematography and that it does is to capture some scenes while BGM is mostly effective.
coming to performances kavya madavan has given a awesome performance esp as the house wife . from emotional scenes to anger outbursts she strikes right note and is extremely natural . undoubtedly one of her best . while irshaad in a quite substantial role is just about ok . a little more effectiveness in drunken scenes would have been fine . it was a relief to see kalabavan mani in a natural role of a cunning uncle . the rest of the cast doesn't have anything to talk about
with a authentic plot this film could have been a classic had all the metrics meet but is definitely a work to be appreciated .
rating : 3.5/ 5
