Kasoombo

Kasoombo, adapted from Vimalkumar Dhami's novel, Amar Balidan, is brilliantly presented by Vijaygiri Bava. From the screenplay to the visualization, the movie does justice to the intent of the makers. The powerful dialogues by writer Raam Mori hit you, while the music and background score by Mehul Surti stand out, perfectly syncing with the mood of the story. As the story is set in the 14th century, the setting is aptly done with temples and palaces, which makes VFX a very strong element of the film.

Superb performance by all. Mind blowing music. Just go for it.

Khamkare Khodal. Jai Aadinath.
