Vineeth Shreenivasan’s latest venture is exactly on the lines of its title, that means “Behind the Veil”. The film has all the elements of love, emotion, fun and children playing pranks on elders. But everything is completely predictable and average as far as entertainment is concerned.
The film only manages to amuse to some extent and that also mainly to the people who are there for time pass. If you are looking for some novelty and innovative direction in the movie then you are sure to get disappointed.
Vinod Nair (Nivin Pauly) and Aisha (Isha Talwar), belonging to Hinduism and Islam respectively, falling in love and the conflict arising out of this. Vinod Nair is played by Nivin Poli who looks cute. And the concept of veil is used to incorporate the religious elements in the movie. But the religious sequences have nothing impressive and the writer could have done even without the concept of veil. The plot looks like wasted in the narration. Moreover the religion also has a strange Malabari ascent which looks weird. Nowadays whole Mollywood is having a heavy malaba influence in its latest projects.
Isha Thalwar seems to be enjoying her role but fails to make an impact. Aju Vargees just plays his character and it looks like he lost the interest in the movie in mid way. Aparna Nair plays a orthodox unintelligent girl who is behind the veil. And she looks desperate to catch attention. Only the four children are a treat to watch, specially the child playing the role of hospital Kid . She has got the majority of punch lines and impresses a lot. Still the sequences with the kids are not such that you can remember them walking out of the hall.
The weakest section of the movie is its music by Shan Rahman. It’s one of the most unimpressive work from the man with not even a single good melodious song. This project needed some special Mappila songs which were found missing. Special Effects are uncomplicated and are not used in excess which is intelligent thinking by the director.
Vineeth Shreenivasan, the director follows his own passion of influences from the other films. This time his movie has the hangover of “Vinnai Thandi Varuvaya”, “Anvar”, “Ishaqzade” and may be more. His “Malarvadi Arts Club” was influenced by “Rock On” .
All one can say is that its an Ok movie, with a simple look and has nothing special to talk about. Something extraordinary was expected from Vineeth Shreenivasan but sadly it was not there.
Rating : 2.5 / 5
