Virrudh

What should I say? Amitabh baffles me with his histrionics again, another big feather in Amitabh's cap, worth mentioning,the scene when Amitabh tries to raise his hand to join the laughter club after his sons demise, will make your spine chill.

Movies are like blank canvas, its a directors medium to express and add color and flavor. Mahesh Manjrekar is an accomplished technician when it comes to subject like Virrudh, his previous attempts like Astitva has earned critical acclaim. Virudh will be another medal for him to wear. It may not achieve commercial success as it should but it will remain as a "fine" product of the "nous" bollywood.

Sharmila Tagore's spontaniety and flawless performance will bowl you, John and Sanjay does their part with conviction. Debutant Anusha played her role with ease. Overall a movie I will highly recommend.

Negative : The end, it had a great flow but somehow the climax couldn't hold the weight of the movie.
