32aam Adhyayam 23aam Vaakyam

The contents of a book grips its protagonist and takes the plot forward. The characters are reasonably clear though there are occasional loose ends. The element of thrill keeps you glued till the end. The debutant filmmakers take the audience for a reasonably-wondrous trip into the maze of its story, filled with mystery and revelations. It's no run-of-the-mill tale and has a handful of elements that bring in some refreshing, unconventional thrill. Freddy returns home from America for a week to celebrate his first wedding anniversary with wife Ann. He spots an anniversary gift - a book - in their bedroom and starts reading it. As he flips a few pages, he becomes engrossed in the book. Ann is disturbed to see that her husband is a lot more involved in the labyrinth of the book than a regular reader should be.

I got this movie from a hard-disc drive which I borrowed from a friend. hope its not a pirated copy. Talking about the movie; it was really interesting. Story was something fresh in Malayalam movies. Now I really regret for not watching this movie from theaters when it was released.

I loved the performance by lead pair, Govind Padmasoorya & Miya. Govind Padmasoorya(G.P) who is a sensation at television media known for his charismatic and energetic persona, did well as Freddy Abhraham. but the other part from the novel (paralel reality I hope) needed little bit of chiseling. And leading lady Miya looks gorgeous as always and she did a nice job as Ann, especially her performance in that romantic song. Coming to technical side; Music done by Bijibal was really nice, especially the songs. But some parts from the background music was little over the board.Overall it suits the mood. Cinematography and editing were decent. But I can say that Directors(Arjun & Gokul) of the movie did a good job. It was really a decent watch.

P.S: I will watch their next movie from theaters itself, looks like they have a promising future.

Up until I found out that this movie was ripped from the English film "The Number 23", I was surprised and satisfied with the movie. It was after watching this that I read somewhere about the similarity. I then watched the English film and my curiosity, it was exactly the same to the smallest detail.

Even if the makers claim its inspired, i would call it copying or ripping off. It was not an idea borrowed but the whole story used without consent and some minor reworking that cannot hide the truth.

What I can acknowledge is that the actors did their roles well. There are many loopholes that haven't been filled but it's OK for a one-time watch without watching the original English film.
