Vetrimaaran is back with his third movie “Visaaranai”, with no hurry, almost 4 years after winning a national award.
It is the story of four young men who get imprisoned
and exploited by the cops for their selfish motives and who are forced to prostrate
in front of the bureaucratic system for series of reasons. The movie has a number
of intricate layers within it.
The success of the screenplay is, every audience could see from both from the
victim's’ perspective as well from the cops side., who too feel helpless and
let down as the victims of the so called “system”.
The police station and the bureaucratic system behind the entire drama naturally creates cold
waves through our spine. We find it hard to see and digest such bitter
truth, but these are the men that we face daily, people whom we lay our faith to
protect us from harm and whom we got to go for many of our issues.
This movie is based on a true story that was penned as a
novel by M. Chandra Kumar , who is the lone surviving victim of this dark and
disturbing tale, the screenplay was adapted to suit the sensibilities without
any botheration towards commercial elements.
I would say, “Visaaranai” is worth all the hype. An unbending,
hard-hitting and spine-chilling attempt to uncover the abuse of power. The
movie doesn't preach or do mere talking, rather it exposes a shock of the reality
today. And it makes you think - because this could happen to you too!
Great Work Vetrimaaran. Take a bow!
