Navarasa: neuf émotions

Don't watch it with high expectations.

But still you will not be satisfied.

Unbelievable ,many people gathered to make this mediocre webseries.

We shouldn't blame any Actors or technicians.

People who had involved in story and screenplay should take the blame.

Reputation of many good actors in peril.

Except Inmai and roudram ,all are not good.

It really shows the movie has budget constraints and also didn't experiment anything as new.

Overall no emotions or feelings for this webseries.

For all its hype and relentless online marketing, Navarasa definitely scores high for its technical brilliance and production design. In fact almost all of its nine stories, put together has a runtime of 5 hours, and has a very few parallels on the technical side that can match Navarasa head to head, in Kollywood. But the screenplay and writing has more misses than hits, only 3 stories intrigued the viewers minds, while another 3 offers nothing new and 3 more are just boring and a makes a painful watch.

Episode 1: Edhiri, Very Good but not brilliant, Actor Vijay Sethupathi's talents goes under utilised here.

Episode 2: Summer of 1992, Has a few laughs but Director Priyadarshan offers nothing new.

Episode 3: Project Agni, Brilliant concept but director Karthik Naren rushes to tell and do too many things in a very short time.

Episode 4: Payasam, An Authentic 1960s tale, aided by some brilliant production design and costumes. Prakash Raj would have been an better choice than Delhi Ganesh here.

Episode 5: Peace, I never new LTTE spoke with such funny accents and wore makeup, before operations.

Episode 6: Roudram, Brilliant tale that intrigues the viewer minds for its entire run time. Arvind swami stuns us with his caliber as a director.

Episode 7: Inmai, Parvathy shines in this rather insipid folklore, that tries hard.

Episode 8: Thunintha Pin, An outright dud from the screenplay pages of Ravaan or Ravaanan (2007), that didn't make the final cut. Really? Mani sir?

Episode 9: Guitar Kambi Mele Nindru, A Typical Gautham Menon, blah blah blah that I have been watching for 20 years now. Frankly Mr. GVM, don't you have any other ideas? A Brilliant Song by Karthik in a dud within.

Overall, Watch Navarasa for its technical brilliance and a wonderful Toorigha song, when you have absolutely nothing to do, sans higher expectations. 6 out of 10 stars for a promising anthology which goes flat eventually.

Once again outdated mess.

Each and every one of nine parts lags and disappoints.

1. Ethiri - Whether the casting is strong the story and emotions falls apart. Nothing exposed.

2. Summer of 92 - This emotion is named as laughter, also they had a big opportunity to do that with casting like Yogi Babu. Still went on vein.

3. Project Agni - The only good thing happened in this Navarasa. The screenplay stands tall and casting too. Too much English sequences will confuse the audience more than the script itself.

4. Payasam - They called it embarrassing, is it ? Its fully compiled with jealousy.

5. Peace - The end is not actually replicates the title. The one good thing here is that long single shot.

6. Roudhram - They call it anger, what I witnessed is Embarrassing. But the making and casting is good here. Yet it never exposed the emotion anger.

7. Inmai - Another good thing in this navarasa is this film's casting. Both siddharth and parvathy does it well. Sidhharth really exposed the emotion fear. But the execution is not great.

8. Thunitha Pin - No word is there to explain how useless this film. Really no words.

9. Guitar Kambi Mele Ninru - As usual Gautam menon stuff not great and also it takes too much of time around 48mins, in this duration they could have explained very well but still something touch emotion missing here. Songs are good and casting is great.

Overall there is no such worst anthology like this. And please stop doing like this.

RATED 5/10 Language: Tamil Source: Netflix

Runtime: nearly 5hrs. 9Episodes and each around 35 minutes.

Total disappointment. Only surprising episode is "Project Agni", it is surprising at the same time confusing.

Surya Episiode is overdose of GVM-ism. It was cute till the motor bike ride through Adayar, after that its repetitive and overdosed.

Rowthiram is bit OK but not justified fully.

All the other episodes are not noteworthy and not eligible for movie candidate... Easily skippable one.

Well, I was really excited about this series, but got disappointed.

The acting, cinematography and background scores are the best, direction is average but story is really poor.

I liked the 1st, 7th and 6th episodes the most, they really give some great message.

Some are average like 4th and 5th Some are really worse like the 3rd and 8th. If the know the 3rd episode's director's most of the movies end like that. For 3rd episode I'll say just adding confusing terms doesn't make a story great.

9th was bit confusing and incomplete storyline.

But really disappointed. I've rated as the average of all episodes.
