Kondraal Paavam

Official remake of sandalwood movie "AA KARAALA RATRI" handled by Dayal padmanabhan who also did the original cult hit movie is a sincere tribute to his mother tongue...Despite being a good plot it fails to feel the culture and garner the people's life & habitation which was a strong fort for kannada audience and the screenplay supports to a larger than life in original version... Whereas in tamil the plot stays a major advantage keeping the culture and regional people habitation out of the box which supports the movie to a certain extent ... Despite the good performance by all 4 characters it's only the plot that saves the whole movie making it a one time watchable movie.

Kondraal Paavam is a full package of suspense and thriller. The movie keeps you on edge till the very end with its amazing twists and turns. The end of the movie is completely unpredictable. The whole cast leaves you in awe with their commendable acting, especially Varalaxmi Sarath Kumar. As the female protagonist, her role is eminent and she has done complete justice to it. Santhosh Prathap plays vital role in the film, and let's not forget Charle and Easwari Rao, the two prominent actors of the industry. Their experience shows in their acting. Director Dayal Padmanabhan has done a commendable job and the BGMs of Sam CS adds more impact to the whole films. The songs of the movie are amazing and are here to stay for a long while. The whole cast and crew has done an amazing job and it shows in the movie. A must watch one.

The best thing about this movie is the story and the moral they spread throughout the movie. Towards the end of the movie, the moral hit hard on our face. Just for this impact, i am recommending this movie.

That "kudukuduppai" wordings are fantastic and the title of the movie justifies.

Superb story and below average scene sequences. Lot of scenes reminds of Serial type. The Movie starts and end very well, in between they made lot of silly mistakes in the making that disturbs the whole viewing.

Adjust your expectations on the making and slow pace of the movie. Then definitely this would be a surprising affair.

Recommended for one time watch.

The movie starts with a discourse on desire and lust which sets a central theme for the entire movie. An unknown stranger enters the poverty stricken family of 4. One leads to the other and family decides to kill the stranger.

While as a viewer one is on the hook if the family would kill (or) not kill the stranger, the climax revelation is hard hitting and unexpected. This is brilliantly written but certain portions could have been trimmed.

The music was loud and all songs looked similar. One should watch the movie for the brilliant acting from Varalakshmi Sarathkumar and the unexpected climax part.

Watched the trailer of the movie, very impressive.

Be it the BGM or the scene, loved it. Director has spent so much time to work each scene out I guess.

Congratulations to the director and the Producers. I'm sure this movie will be a grand Success. Awaiting the movie release. So excited!!

Ms. Varalakshmi, Tharamana Sambavam!! I don't think anyone else can perform this role better.

Any suggestions when is the International release?? I'm hoping you do have plans for movie release in Canada.

We do have a huge Tamil movie fans here in Toronto and are awaiting for this movie.

Any plans for OTT release??
