After mega Hit 'Kadhaparayumbol', Director M. Mohan's second flick "Manikya Kallu" released today(5th May 2011) with good opening and good response.
The movie stars Prithviraj as VinayaChandran (a School Teacher), Samvrutha Sunil (Sports Teacher) Nedumudi Venu (Head Master) and also casr includes Jagadish, Salim Kumar, Jagathy Sreekumar, Kottayam Nazir, Anoop Chandran,Anil Murali, Suresh Krishna, KPAC Lalitha, Sona Nair etc.
Manikyakkallu is being produced under the banner of Gouri Meenakshi Movies.
The story happens in a government school(Vannanmaala Govt school) that had a glorious past but is now on the verge of being shut down as there are less than 50 students enrolled there. The teachers have lost all hope about making a difference to the situation and are busy with their personal activities. The results for the final examinations are pathetic, to say the least. Considering all this, when a young teacher named Vinayachandran (Prithviraj) requests for a transfer to the school, it comes as a surprise to every one, especially to those working there.
The major highlight of the film is Prithviraj's performance. Manikya Kallu is a pleasant movie like M.Mohan's debut 'Kathaparayumbol', where you will find humor and sentiments in the right dose. M.Mohan who always steer clear of gimmicks has this time too given a classic film but with all commercial ingredients. His characters are very real and human.
Samvrutha Sunil gives an ok performance.Jagadish, Salim Kumar, Jagathy Sreekumar, Kottayam Nazir, Anoop Chandran,Anil Murali, Suresh Krishna, KPAC Lalitha, Sona Nair have given an outstanding performance. Songs by M. Jayachandran-Anil Panachooraan team apts for the theme.
Another main positives of the flick is Cinematography by P. Sukumar and Art creation of Santosh Raman. The script is also dotted with characters to give the feel of a microcosmic village and school surroundings. All others in the technical crew is in perfect sync with the mood of the theme, that really needed to be addressed in this impact.
In the end, 'Manikya Kallu' turns out to be a delightful experience and is a simple or small film with a big heart!
Verdict: Good.
