Chakram

This movie was embroiled in a big controversy and finally now it has come to theaters. After seeing it one wonders why anybody should have bothered about this silly movie.

The film fails because the central character of a lorry driver in search of his friend who cheated him is something, which an actor of Mohanlal caliber can do. The story line is similar to Thazhvaram the film directed by Bharathan and scripted by MT with Lal in the hero's role.

Here you find Prithivi struggling to do justice to the role. Lohitha Das should have realized that or the hero should have understood that it was too heavy for him. Sadly both did not realize it.

Prithiviraj is Chandrahasan whose money got from gambling was stolen and wife Mira kidnapped. Barely escaping from death he is out on the trail of his friend. Prithiviraj strikes the right poses with long hair and beard etc but fails to emote. Meera has nothing in this film.
