Aramm Review

'Aramm' is surely one of the most talked about films of the year, there's been a lot of buzz surrounding the project as it has Nayantara playing an IAS officer for the first time in her career. The film hit the screens today, let's see how the movie turns out to be. The story is nicely set up in the first half an hour in a drought affected area of Tamil Nadu and the movie picks up when Nayantara is introduced. The movie is all about the challenges faced by Nayantara in the process of solving the problems of villagers.

Coming to performances, Nayantara shines as Madhivadhani an IAS who stands by her words. This is by far Nayantara's nest performance in the recent times, she doesn't go overboard in even a single and delivers a class performance which is apt for the movie. The supporting cast of the film which includes the likes of Sunu Lakshmi, Vignesh, Ramachandran Durairaj, Vela Ramamurthy deliver a stellar performance and add a lot of weight to the movie.

Technically too, the film is brilliant as the technical departments did whats requyired for the script. Camerawork of Om Prakash is impressive as he captures the various crucial situations like the 'Well Scene' perfectly. Ghibran's background score deserves an apllause as he elevates crucial scenes of Nayantara with his terrific BGM. Ruben's editing is sharp as he kept the run time just below 2 hours mark which is necessary for films of this kind.

Gopi Nainar does an impressive job in bringing life to the story as he manages to grab stellar performances from his cast. Though the basic story has the docu-drama feel he manages to make it a proper commercial film with elevation scenes here and there without taking many cinematic liberties. Right from the first scene till the end, he keeps his focus on story and nothing else and manages to provide an engaging thriller to the audience.

Verdict: Watch it for stellar performance from Nayantara and brilliant story telling of Gopi.
