Malla film review
 Crazy
Star Ravichandran at last has come out of hangover of his
dream film 'Ekanki' (Loner). His fans could not digest him
as 'loner'. He is back to track now with his typical brand
movie 'Malla' - an outright Crazy Star film. Malla has nothing
new as a plot but Ravichandran shines as a technician by filling
tasty, spicy and aromatic wine in old bottle with sparks of
humor. He carries the film completely on his shoulder not
just on the screen, even behind as a director with music,
story, screenplay and dialogues without compromising in any
of these departments!
Film is all about Malla (Ravichandran) - a florist, a Samaritan,
soft natured person beloved by people; contrast to this is
his son Shiva (Ravichandran) who grows-up in goons' abode;
father who sacrifices his life for his son and at the end
son taking revenge on the culprits.
Malla reminds his earlier films Anjada Gandu, Puntanja in
some sequences. This film has everything from love to trust,
affection, sorrow, action, cruelty, comedy and glamour
to make Malla a tasty feast for all class. Known for unusual
ideas and sets, he demonstrated them here too - he sleeps
on a hand shaped bed made out of clay
filled with his dearest friend's
(Mohan) love!  Screen
is filled with
loads of flowers throughout to symbolize love and freshness!
Ravishing Priyanka adds glamour! Umashri and K.S.L. Swamy
as Malla's parents bring the affectionate touch. The way newborn
Shiva was snatched by Malla's brother-in-laws reminds 'Kamsa'
and Dwarake. Added to all of these is the composition of chilling
climax stunt based on Kalaripayat - a traditional marshal
art from Kerala.
Malla
is a good comeback for Ravichandran in all aspects. Some scenes
may be little difficult to digest for 'traditional' filmgoers.
Mohan shines as an innocent, true friend. Apart from being
glamour doll, Priyanka has done good job in acting department
too. Ravichandran's son Vikram appears for a short while.
Umashri and K.S.L. Swamy don't have enough scope in the film.
Malla is a treat if you think films are for entertainment!
