Paradesi

Well I blame this on IBDB because the rating does not mean where it should be based on,either directing ,acting or any other thing.

But my problem with this film is what is it trying to prove, an issue with British rule, the Barbaric rule and acts of Indian origin administrators, the not united acts of Indian at the time.May be its because they were influenced by British but it doesn't justify acts of Indians, like not releasing labours and not giving wages or medicine.I see only 10 minutes of British ignorant about there workers in the film. Almost all the other time about Indians acting against their own. Fooling Indians to work without pay, acting as a Doctor,cutting the nerve of Rasa, Not been united when been attacked. To name a few. Yes British was barbaric but why doesn't it come out from the film. Yes it has some message but I don't know which one is it.

We can try this movie just for the director Bala, he is one of the finest director in the world. Why bala is special from other directors in this world is because even if you give him a road side fellow he is capable of transforming him as a best actor.

Coming to the movie, right from the starting till end it has been taken very neatly. The movie starts with lots of joy where the people in a small dry village where leading their life happily. Then comes a cold blooded snake who will take all men and followed by their women to work as slaves in a tea estates, the rest of the movie shows how their life turn out to be a hell.

There are many hidden facts in this movie.

Wonderful casting, very good cinematography, outstanding costumes, marvelous acting.

Please try bala's other top notch movies like PITHAMAGAN, NAAN KADAVUL, NANDHA, SETHU.

The movie which is inspired from the original events from the period of British India is not a conventional movie which is being produced in large amounts in India. The screenplay does not drag a bit.

The movie has some brilliant performances from a relatively new cast. With humor as the vehicle, the characterization was given a good ride in the first half of the movie.

The movie touches the themes of slavery and labor exploitation . The movie reminded me of subtle comparison of corporate world controlling people's lives even in today's world.

The movie will make you speechless. P.S : This is not a movie for mainstream audience.

PARADESI movie review by me.

Paradesi movie is about lost paradise.(Just juggle the words paradise,paradesi will come,actually the story is about people who leave their place on lookout for better future (paradesi looking out for paradise) but here as how the words can be juggled their life was juggled to Hell.

Just now seen "Paradesi" movie,I got involved in the movie so much,the tears came when exactly the climax came even though I don't know it is Climax,that is Direction at its best,kudos Bala.

Cons:The movie reminded me of Apocalypto at some scenes but it is the story about "paradesi's" who were same and who were cheated and tortured like this.

Pros:Whenever we go to tourist places in TamilNadu and Kerala border we just take picture of Tea estate and Tea plantation but this movie rather pictures their History,sufferings,life in ancient India.

I never seen a Indian movie hero living in a Hut in a movie or be it shots shot inside a Hut or treated like beggar in the Indian movies of this past decade.

Verdict:If you love drinking a cup of tea,please see the movie and feel the aroma of this movie,which extracts not tea from tea leaves but Blood from this leaves.

This movie is adapted from the novel named "Red Tea" by Paul Harris Daniel ,which I believed and the people who watched this movie or those who have read the novel will believe as aptly named.

Director:Bala
