Drishyam

A great movie and superb story line!!!. A must watch if you are a fan of thriller and suspense movies

I have seen this movie in Tamil as well but I would give an extra star for the Hindi version. Tabu in a role of a cop and a mother has done a great job, it was a treat watching her portray this role so convincingly and at ease.

Shriya does justification to her role as a mother and a wife of Ajay Devgan. Last but not least, Mr. Devgan has done a good job as a father who goes out of his ways to protect his family.

If you are a Tabu fan, you would regret if you miss this movie. I would request you all to please go the movie theatre and watch the movie.

... and a really good replica but, the original Malayalam version just edges it for me, it's a bit more gritty, rugged and not quite as polished.

"Drishyam" undoubtedly secures its place as one of the finest films ever produced in India, destined to be revered as a cult classic for generations to come. While it is a faithful remake of the South Indian film of the same name, it manages to surpass all expectations, showcasing the epitome of cinematic excellence.

Vijay Salgaonkar, portrayed by Ajay Devgn, etches himself into the annals of memorable movie protagonists. His portrayal exudes maturity, strategic planning, and unwavering perseverance that sets him apart. As a family man, he embodies the ideal support every family craves Although his character arc begins with him being a Bollywood fan who doesn't devote much time to the family. The weight of responsibility on his shoulders to care for his family is skillfully depicted. Vijay Salgaonkar's journey on treacherous paths for the sake of his family's safety unites the audience in admiration for his unwavering devotion.

The brilliance of the storyline leaves no room for mediocrity. Each aspect, from characters to plot development, radiates excellence. Tabu's portrayal of Meera Deshmukh is nothing short of sensational, a role seemingly tailor-made for her talents. Her dedication and discipline in embodying the character add depth and authenticity to the narrative.

"Drishyam" stands tall as one of the finest crime thrillers ever crafted globally. Its seamless blend of compelling characters, gripping narrative, outstanding performances, and impeccable direction and cinematography makes it a true masterpiece. It is a cinematic gem. Its impact will be felt for decades to come.

Just came back from the Premier Screening of Drishyam. The reason for me to catch the movie was the reviews of the original Drishyam which is a Malyalam movie with Mohanlal as the lead actor. The trailers of this Hindi remake with powerful existence of Ajay Devgan (or Devgn, as he writes it now) and Tabu, motivated me to go for this movie after a tiring Thursday in office, (mentioning the tiring day as disappointment was the last this I was willing to accept after the day, Glad I chose this movie). So the movie starts with a small happy family of Vishal Salgaonkar which is living happily in the ever happy town of Goa, there family was disrupted because of an unwanted person entering into their lives who happens to be the son of the Inspector general of Goa, Meera Deshmukh, then an accident happens which changes the life of this family for ever. The way this 4th grade failed person (Vishal) plays with the police department is commendable. So the movie is about how actually Vishal safeguard his family and himself against powerful Meera and her Police Department.

My special suggestion is to have patience and sit for the first half of the movie as nothing much will happen but the story will be built up. After the interval when you come back with that tub of popcorn, its then the real investigation and the never ending plot of Vishal to safeguard his family starts, the proceedings will sometimes give you goose bumps and at times you will expect something to happen which will not happen and hence the tag line of the move "Visuals Can Be Deceptive" The Camera work of the movie is good. it features some of the beautiful locations of Goa (I am not sure if all of that was Goa) The acting done by the whole Salgaonkar family is superb along with Tabu's never disappointing appearance in front of the camera. The movie has limited songs, Two, actually, if I remember correctly, but both the tracks are good and perfectly goes with the situation. The side characters in the movie are also done by good actors and so they mix in the screenplay very meticulously. Overall, Its 100% worth a watch on this weekend, so go ahead book your tickets and go for it, I am sure you wont be disappointed, specially people who like Ajay Devgn on screen should go for this movie for sure.
