Om Shanthi Oshana’ creates another hero with minimum guarantee in Malayalam !
There was a time when Dileep was seen as a minimum guarantee actor who can save a medium budget average movie. Dileep still is a minimum guarantee actor, but a costly one for that matter. Navin Pauly is slowly occupying that space or may be more than that in Malayalam movie industry with his down to earth accessibility and reasonable remuneration. Back to back hits and simultaneous releases are the sign of an emerging star, if we go by that logic the search for next star will end at Nivin Pauly.
Nivin Pauly’ s latest release ‘Om Shanthi Oshana’ is a simple feel good movie which should do well in box office as well. Nivin’s competition this releasing season is himself from the movie1983. Jude Anthony Joseph’s debut attempt tells the story of how a girl feels about love and the possibilities of a charming bubbly girl pursuing her love with determination. Nazriya charms everyone with her performance as Pooja Mathew. Story evolves how Pooja evolves through her life with relation to her friendship, her beautiful relationship with her father Mathew Davis (Renji Panikker) and how her attitude towards life changes.
The story is simple, replace the happy go lucky guy of numerous Malayalam and bollywood and other woods with a girl protagonist. Here also love and rejection plays an important role in the sole searching and attitude changes. You might be able to predict the storyline but the acting and the details of the story makes it a watchable one. Nazriya and Nivin along with the support of Aju and Vineeth Sreenivasan has made this one , a good movie.
Nivin’s portrayal of Giri as a reflexive youngster who doesn’t swayed by flows is impeccable. Script has given depth his character where as other characters are just normal. Dr. Prasad Varkey by Vineeth Srinivasan will be remembered as one of the best roles by him if this movie is catches the imagination of youngsters in the coming days. Renji Panikker can think about developing an acting career. Aju Vargheese is not the normal side kick guy you see in other movies, he is a lovable witty person in this one.
Regarding the technicalities like cinematography, music, BGM, editing etc. They have done a neat job but nothing worthy of special mention. This one is a onetime watch, especially if you are a youngster with issues with love and life. It need not give answers for that, but it will make you feel good.
