Vaashi

Cinema in the recent times have made so conditioned to the idea that everything needs to be overly dramatised and larger than life. It is refreshing to see movies that keep the narrative a little bit more rooted. I enjoyed how Vaashi depicts the Court Room as a Court Room and not like a Battlefield of screaming and shouting. Well written, Very relevant and definitely thought provoking.

Great parallel storylines. However the story progression could have been written to be more interesting.

Very good performance by Tovino. Keerthy Suresh could have done more justice to her character which looked a little forced and juvenile at times.

The movie however captures very peculiar topics of marriage, romance, feminism and orthodox mindset of women in the society.

It's good parallel story and could have been more interesting if they added few conflicts in the narration. Goes very plain and predictable throughout except judgement in the ending.

Acting wise, almost every one acted well and justified.

Ebin(Tovino) and Madhavi(Keerthy) are two aspiring lawyers and are in love with each other. Ebin is from a rich and influential Christian family and madhavi is from a middle class hindu family with only her mother. Ebin, with the influence of his brother in law Jose(Rony) is appointed as a public prosecutor. Ebin is first assigned a case of a girl anusha by her father who files a case against her colleague gautham for having sex with her with the promise of marrying her and later cheating her. Its madhavi who appears for gautham since they are childhood friends. For ebin, its his first case as public prosecutor and a prestige issue. On the other hand for madhavi its her family friend. Hence both can't withdraw from this case. On top of that, due to family pressure both have to get married while this case is going on. How this case take a toll on their married life and whether they can live happily keeping their professional differences aside is the rest of the movie.

Vaashi has an interesting plot backed by decent performances from tovino and keerthy. But it suffers from extremely mediocre direction and production values. Script tries to be on a safe zone and the courtroom is not hardhitting.

The concept of this movie is simple although story is quite interesting. However, the story could be more interesting. They did a very good job over acting and Did well in creating story.
