Since I like investigative genre films, I try to go to the theater on the first day to watch them. But all the investigation thriller movies that have been watched with high hopes for a few days have given below average experience. So, I was a little late to watch the movie Anweshipin kandethum in the theater.
Also, I went to the theater with a preconceived notion that this film would end up in the above way. But I realized late that Anweshipin kandethum is a great film that maintains a mystery mood from the beginning to the end, with a plot that captures the audience and a very engaging storytelling.
The cinematography and art of the film are equally excellent. Tovino has come a long way as an actor. The character of SI Anand Narayanan has been presented to the audience with great maturity and no more or less.
The film is made in such a way that the audience will not get bored even for a single moment. Every aspect, from the performances of the cast to the camera work, music, and editing, along with the art and costumes, attains a remarkable level. The color grading adds a classy feel, making it a vintage-colored tone Malayalam film, a first of its kind. May there be more experiments.
The film captures the essence of the 90s, a time without mobile phones, relying on radio and newspapers for news. With limited television access in just a couple of homes, the two murders that occurred during that period are effectively presented to the audience. The film also delves into the styles of vehicles and fashion of that time, encapsulating nature and providing a nostalgic experience.
Under the banner of theatre of dreams, Dolvin Kuriakose, Jinu V Abraham, Vikram Mehra and Siddharth Anand Kumar produced the movie Anveshippin Kandethum. The film stands as a testament to the team’s dedication and creativity, especially after the remarkable success of Prithviraj’s “Kappa”.
