Thattathin Marayathu - Malayalam Movie


The meaning  of the title "Thattathin Marayathu " is Behind the Veil... very opt title.Wikipedia says this movie is a genre -"Musical Romance", i completely agree that. Awesome music after a long time ,i was hooked to a malayalam movie's songs from the moment i heard it .This is director Vineeth Srinivasan's second movie after his successful first one "Malarvadi Arts Club"- a movie which i enjoyed a lot. 

This is a romantic story of Vinod , a middle class,an average Hindu student, who falls in love with Ayisha , wealthy girl from a influential Muslim family.Even though i guessed the flow of the  story after 15 minutes, i still enjoyed the movie, may be because of comedy and songs.The guy-next-door look hero is a big plus point for this movie, you can immediately feel for/with him.

Nivin Pauly as Vinod is perfect for this role and he really did justice to his selection.Aju Verghese as Abdu,Vinod's friend was excellent, he really brings laughter out of everything. Manoj K Vijayan as S.I Premkumar did his role neatly. Isha Talwar as Ayisha is gorgeous and did act well.

Even though the story is age old and lack intensity, the director with a help of cinematographer Jomon.T.John made this movie a watchable as well as likable one.Do not expect any logic, just immerse in love and beautiful and soothing music. Music by Shaan Rahman was excellent one of the best in recent times. The songs "Anuraagathin Velayil"  and "Muthuchippi" keep on playing in my iPod.The first song was sung by the director himself and he is really a good singer. He already won lots of accolades for his singing.

Overall watch it, even if you don't like these kind of stories..,watch just for music and cinematography...!!
