reach the place happily to Paari only to see some other person
(played by SJ Suryah).
Who actually Paari was? Is there some mystery behind his
identity? Go watch it over the screens that is done in
engrossing way, though it is a replication, but done in
Shankar’s way.
The film has a splendid message that everyone is hero in their
own topics and fields. So there is no point distinguishing
between white collar and blue collar jobs. Follow your
heartbeat, discover your passion, develop your skills and
success will follow you, you need not chase it.
The greatest highlight that offers justice to the original
version is Shankar’s ability to bring in the right kind of
actors. It’s not for the sake of favoring someone in particular,
but Vijay is the only actor, who can pose jovially as a college
student although many have been striving to look so. On the
pars, Jiiva’s characterization is engrossing and more of humor.
Watch out for his family portions that will kill you with
absolute laughter.
Srikanth’s role as a typical
orthodox middle class family is done well. It’s good that
Shankar has thrown off the star-value and given importance to
Srikanth as he narrates the entire story. Ileana looks apt for
the role of a medical student and her performance as an
innocuous child like heart is nice. Her portions during the
penultimate sequences are appreciable. Sathyan looks little
annoying for the role as he doesn’t carry the humorous images
and Shankar could have chosen someone else to essay this role,
maybe Omi Vaidya himself.
The dialogues are almost the same from the original version but
Shankar and Madhan Karky add up some gripping lines to savor to
the tastes of Tamil audiences. Technically, the film is
brilliant than the original version with the promising
technicians like Harris Jayaraj (fails to score well in
background, but few songs are good) and top-notching
cinematography by Manoj Paramahamsa, especially the songs are
excellent.
On the whole, ‘Nanban’ is a special treat for the universal
audiences, especially to the youth crowd. We recommend the
educational institutions to screen special shows for all its
students for its great message. |
