We well know the cult of directors in International Cinema, movie enthusiasts place high expectations on the output of the directors rather than the celebrities. In India, this 'cult of directors' is very rare because of the 'larger than life' heroes that the industry has produced. There are certain industries where there have been shifts in this trend, and the Malayalam industry would certainly be the top contender in that list. Among the names of the consistent and creative directors, Khalid Rahman finds his spot with his latest outing 'Love'. With each passing movie, Khalid Rahman is becoming a master of the art. In this movie, his writing is astonishing with the character's that he brings in, and the pinch of confusion that he sprinkles hither and tither. Jimshi Khalid, who previously handled camera's for Khalid's movies, has done a pretty good job. The subtle yet haunting music by Neha-Yakzin is yet another factor to be appreciated. Shine Tom Chacko is the guy who can do any character given to him. With each passing movie, he is proving his versatility, and Rajisha Vijayan too gets her work done well towards the end.
In 'Love', if it weren't for the brilliant writing and performance from the cast, it wouldn't have worked. I would recommend this one because of the quality of content in it. Also, I would love to have director's ditching the 'Interval' for movies within the runtime of 90 minutes.
