Dasharatham

Dasaratham is one of my favorite all time movies. Great script , Great acting and Great direction . All three come together in this drama.

The highlight for me in the film is Lal as Rajeev Menon . The transition from a rich playboy to a mature father is very well portrayed by Lal.This must be Lalettan's finest performance as he combines comedy and emotions in this role wonderfully.He deserved a national award for this movie but then maybe the movie was ahead of its time.You truly feel the emotions through his acting in this movie. The rest of the cast like Murali , Rekha etc have also done a wonderful job. The climax scenes and emotional scenes can move anyone to tears.Special mention should also be give Lohithadas script . What a script, such touching dialogues and director Sibi Malayil also proves why he is considered the best in drama and emotions.

A must watch.

The climax of Darrahat, if Mohanlal broke down on Sukumari's shoulder and said, "Anne Monne Snakeman is a Maggie in Snehamoho," you will see his fingers, and understand what they are. Mohanlal's dance performance is in favor of Sukumari.

Dasaratham is a movie written by Sibi Malayil by Lohithadas. The film, released in 1989, tells the story of a pregnancy hired work. The character presenter Mohanlal is renting a woman's uterus to give birth to her baby. The woman is not ready to give up the child at last. Mohanlal is ready to give the kid his daughter. Mohanlal asks the nurse Sukumari to give up the baby and Anini loves the magic as he loves her son. The story of Mohanlal is a classic example of the climax scenes in the Dasrath.

I decided to watch this movie after seeing a video where someone mentioned how Mohanlal's fingers "act" in the final scene and wow they were not exaggerating. This film is undoubtedly one of the finest from the Golden Age of Malayalam cinema. Dasaratham takes you through the journey of a man who thought money could buy him anything, only to learn that some things are truly priceless.

Mohanlal's final breakdown was pure brilliance and easily some of the best acting I have ever seen. His effortless portrayal of emotions is unmatched. This is truly one of the finest Malayalam movies I have experienced. The Sibi Malayil Lohitadas combination never disappoints and this is yet another masterpiece from them.

I am currently on a nostalgic trip, revisiting old classics that shaped the Malayalam film industry. I might have seen many of them before but I am rediscovering their magic all over again.

I'm writing this review just for the sake of contributing another 10 star rating for this movie. If that can make a slight difference, then I would be as satisfied as I was, after watching this movie. First things first, Mohanlal deserved a national award for this. If this can't get you one, then I suppose the jury made a huge mistake that year. He just lived it and it would be undermining if I said that even his fingers acted with emotions at times. It brought tears to my eyes and, trust me, I don't usually cry that often watching movies Coming to the story and direction, this movie was far ahead of it's time. I really did a background research to know if any movie was made on the same plot anywhere else and failed to find one, which proves it. Every actors did justice to their respective roles, especially Nedumudi Venu and Karamana. Songs were timed perfectly and didn't really spoil the feel. If you haven't watched the movie, please do right now and come back to give a 10 star rating. C'mon we should make our opinions hear loud or else these movies won't get the appreciation they deserve.
