Kalimannu Movie Review

After a lot of controversies and havoc, the movie Kalimannu is released today. Ace director Blessy has directed this movie.

Kalimannu tells the story of the bondage between an expecting mother and her unborn baby. The movie portrays the eventful life of Meera which is played by Shweta Menon. Meera is a club dancer who aspires to be an actress. The film unravels the drama in her life as she becomes an item dancer, actress and an expecting mother.

Though things get a bit too melodramatic at times, Blessy succeeds in presenting the woes of the life of Meera, in a competent way. There are some well crafted situations and hard hitting dialogues that make the film look eminently genuine.

The highlight of the movie is that Shweta Menon's delivery was shot live on camera for the film. Much controversies evoked after this news came out. People even spoke against the screening of the film and claimed that either the film should be banned or the delivery scene should be removed before screening. The climax was really superb.

Swetha Menon's acting is praiseworthy, and yet it remains one of the acteress most subdued and restrained performances ever.As usual Biju Menon is in high in his acting skill.Sunil Shetty apperaed as a cameo. Satheesh Kurup Cinematography is excellent.The Script is too strong till the end.The second half of the movie is outstanding.Blessy, the director of the film claimed that he had never disclosed what is shot in the film and that he does not understand what makes people think such weird things.Again Blessy proved that he is an excellent director.

Rating: 3.5 / 5
