Oru Vadakkan Veeragatha

Historical Dailoge delivary Direction Songs Fight All good.

The Cult Classic Epic Saga of an Antagonist from Kerala Folklore twisting him to a Modern day Hero !

This Movie made in 1989 with a budget of 3 Crore Rupees (the most expensive movie in Malayalam at that period) was no less than a Magnum Opus with powerful script from legendary M. T. Vasudevan Nair , Directorial Expertise from Hariharan and a National Award Winning Sterling Performance from Mammootty as Chathiyan Chandhu.

Actors and directors is very good Dailoge delivery is very good.

This film made the Malayalam industry proud. One of the best performance by Mammootty. Story-wise and direction are extraordinary.

Terrific movie & one of my all time favourites. Everything about this movie is in superlatives. Great sets, casting, cinematography, music etc. M.T.Vasudevan Nair has worked wonders with the script & dialogues, and direction by Hariharan is innovative. Mammootty's portrayal of the central character "Chandu" was so realistic that whenever one reads or talks about this historical character from the Northern ballads,it's Mammootty who springs to mind. Captain Raju too did a great job as the much misunderstood martial arts Guru "Aringodar". In fact, there were fantastic performances all around -Balan K.Nair, Suresh Gopi, Madhavi, each one of them "lived" their characters. Another lasting factor of this film are the two songs by Yesudas which have become perennial favourites. I hope the copyright holders of this movie will urgently start working on its DVD version. It would be a great tribute to one of the best movies ever made in India.
