Kaattu

Don't know why kaattu ain't too much popular, seriously it's a film which is standard enough in every aspects,movies like kaattu, iyobinte pusthakam nad ranam should be supported and should be marketed all over the country coz they're simply standard enough to make Malayalam industry proud.

"Kaatu" is a Malayalam movie directed by Arunkumar Aravind as his fourth film. the script of the movie written by Ananthapadmanabhan based on the story written by "P.Padmanabhan", the story is happening in late 80s and 90's. Asif Ali and Murali Gopi are the leading actors, According to my opinion it is one of the best movies acted by Asif, the songs and BGM were composed by Deepak Dev. the negative parts of the movies are it's climax and it is strictly for serious viewers

Director Arun Kumar Aravind has succeeded in gaining a place for himself in Mollwood with his hard-hitting films 'like Ee Adutha Kalathu' and 'Left Right Left'."Kaattu" marks the comeback of Arun into films after a hiatus of more than 3 years,who has accomplished in providing an intense cinematic experience with some powerful dialogues,raw emotions,brilliant performances and a neat job by the team of art direction.

The screenplay by Ananthapadmanabhan based upon his father P.Padmarajan's short story "Raanimarude Kudumbam' even though bit lengthy is nevertheless enjoyable and has ample depth and substance to qualify for a silver-screen watch.The old-school style narrative by Arun reminds us of movies from the combo of Padmarajan and Bharathan in the late 70s such as 'Lorry' and 'Thakara' that gives emphasis on emotional side of its characters rather than formulaic cinematic gimmicks.

The first half of the movie was slightly slow-paced and took lot of time to establish its characters and their individual traits.The lengthy first half gave me a feel that the movie could have gained much more pace by avoiding lengthy single-sequences and at times dramatic dialogues.The second half on contrary was near to perfect and blessed with some exceptionally well-narrated sequences and complimented by good performances from the lead cast.Climax portion too was really good and effectively presented.

Noohukkannu can be easily pointed out as the best acting performance by Asif Ali till date and he triumphed in portraying the character of a naive and innocent youth perfectly.Murali Gopy was as usual brilliant and gave a convincing act.Varalaxmi Sarathkumar and Manasa Radhakrishnan played their part well.Another notable character was that of Moopan,played brilliantly by Pankan ThamarassEry.

Deepak Dev succeeded in creating the perfect score for the setting of the film added with two hummable songs that were placed well in the narrative.Prasanth Raveendran did a good job with cinematography.Cuts by director himself were fine.

Overall,Kaattu is a lethargic,but well-conceived late 70's style drama that deserves a watch for its honest narrative and neat performances.

after a long time watching a perfect movie with beautiful story line with memorable characters. asif ekka the climax smile is awesome, never expect this much from you. murali chettan also proved that he is a extraordinary character artist. feel like reading a book. hats off to kaattu crew members and especially arunkumar aravind for giving us such a awesome movie..
