Pakalum Paathiravum Review: Is A Rushed Adaptation Of An English Play
Rating: ** Cast: Kunchacko Boban, Rajisha Vijayan, Gokulam Gopalan, Seetha, Jagadish, Guru Somasundaram Pakalum Paathiravum , a toothless utterly untruthful crime thriller with a very Grecian heart transposed not so gingerly into a Malayali landscape.

Like the coach Shah Rukh in Chak De , Rajisha Vijayan comes to the potentially triumphant sports team with a lo | Click Here...
Review Of Karnan: A No-Frills Authentic Drama
Karnan(Tamil,Amazon Prime) Starring Dhanush, Lal, Yogi Babu, Azhagam Perumal, Natarajan Subramaniam, Rajisha Vijayan, Gouri G. Kishan and Lakshmi Priya Chandramouli. Directed by Mari Selvaraj Rating:**** This is not just a film. It is a movement. A wakeup call for all Indians who think all men are born equal(what about the women? That, some other time). Get real.The caste system still exists in various forms . Inequality is in our DNA. Anubhav Sinha tore through the caste system in his masterpiece Article 15 …or perhaps “tore” is not exactly | Click Here...
