Hyderabad: When Siddharth (Dulquer Salman) turned up as an angry young man, we enjoyed his new style and when Malar (Sai Pallavi) smiled, we swooned. From this, it is clear that Malayalam films are going global and spreading their wings and magic in the world of cinema.
With brilliant directional skills, raw emotions and phenomenal acting waved around the simple plot lines, the films of Malayalam are painting the town red and conquering the hearts and minds. Unless you are living in a Jungle, you would have heard about the slice of life dramas – “Bangalore Days“, “Premam“, “Drishyam“, “Charlie” and now “Kali“.
Now the question arises, what makes these South Indian films so special, which are grabbing the eyeballs of other film industries across the sub-continent? Looks like, a few well-skilled movie makers are on a verge of lifting the standards of the M-Town movies. When their enthusiasm meets the multi-talented young actors – Dulquer Salman, Nazriya, Fahadh Fazil, Sai Pallavi, Parvathy, Nivin Pauly and others, the films are setting benchmarks in the competitive ambience and are making waves.
To be very clear, these new age makers are capturing the beauty of Kerala and portraying it well on the silver screens with the help of actors and stories with unexpected twists and turns. Unlike the regular masala dramas, the directors chose to tell their stories in a clean and simple way with more interest.
Today, these much-talked-about films are on a demand and movie makers of other industries are vying for the remake rights. With such progress, the actors are also bagging enormous fame and are elevating their fan following too.
The actors, directors and scriptwriters are surprising the world audience with their skills and array of story lines. It seems the makers are on a spree of creating a new cinema wave with their ocean of talent, which led to the steady growth in commercial Malayalam cinema. It happens with only the exceptional filmmaking, if not then what it is?
