Love and life
Myyal
– Review
Sethu, makes a living by stealing goats at night and selling them. One day, while stealing goats, the villagers chase him and he jumps into a well and breaks his leg.
An old witch and her granddaughter Samriddhi Tara who are shunned by the villagers, live alone in the forest.
They take in Sethu and treat him without the knowledge of the villagers. Sethu and Samriddhi Tara fall in love.
Meanwhile, Thenappan kills a person in the village. Thenappan pays the police officer to arrest another person in the murder case.
The police officer, thinking that he can implicate the Sethu in this, comes looking for him. Knowing this, Sethu flees the town.
What happened next? Did the police officer catch Sethu? Did Thenappan’s conspiracy work out forms the rest of the story.
Directed by Ezhumalai, the movie focuses on how a common man who steals for a living is framed for murder by the police. The lead pair’s struggle for love and the lives of the people in the village.
The story, screenplay and dialogues of the film are written by Jayamohan. More attention could have been paid to the screenplay of the film.
Sethu, who plays the hero of the story, has delivered a natural performance. Samriddhi Tara, who plays the heroine, comes across beautifully and delivers an excellent performance, grabbing attention.
Thenappan, who plays the villain, has acted in his style of villainy. Also, Bala as the cop, Super Good Subramani, and Ratna Kala, who plays the old woman, have acted with understanding of the character.
Bala Palaniappan’s cinematography reflects the beauty of the village. Music by Amrgeet is good. Rest of the technical aspects of the movie are good as well.
Rating: 3.8/5
