Movie - Amaran

Many stories are told. But some stories need to be told. One such story that needed to be told and that was told in a meaningful way was of the Indian Army Major and his wife, Mukund Varadarajan and Indu Varghese, through the movie Amaran.

I watched it in a theater in Tamil without english subtitles, despite of writing on the certificate page that the movie is in Tamil with subtitles. Well, since it's an army backdrop, i could follow the Hindi and English conversations. The rest of the part could be followed easily, mainly due to Sai Pallavi's expressive eyes.

College love story followed by the major's monumental work in the Army and his unfortunate demise in an Army operation, storyline is nothing different but the way the characters have been depicted and the picturization of key sequences in army operations make the movie a meaningful watch.

Sivakarthikeyan and Sai Pallavi have excelled in their roles as Mukund and Indu. Yet another beautiful script-choice by Sai Pallavi, who lived in the character and acted with ease! She would have been a definite contender for the national award, had her role been lengthy enough for consideration. I'm not completely aware of the rules though.

Background score and a couple of songs are extraordinary.

If you haven't watched it, please watch it on Netflix.
