One Liner
A criminal plays mind tricks with a police officer, if he is accountable for the crime, how does the police officer prove it?
Detailed Plot
As soon as Jayesh, an expat, lands at the airport, a group of law enforcement agents pick him up. He is taken to a remote facility where he will be questioned over a murder that has gone unsolved for years. The criminal branch has a very small window to persuade Jayesh to tell the truth because they don’t have a valid warrant, and what we see in Naalam Mura are their strategies to get Jayesh to confess. Is Jayesh responsible for the crime, or are the police attempting to blame him?
Artistes’ Performances
Naalam Mura, directed by Deepu Anthikad, has Biju Menon and Guru Somasundaram onscreen together for the first time. A character that doesn’t seem difficult at all is sleepwalked through by Biju Menon. Guru Somasundaram doesn’t fit the part of the character. Being sympathetic to Guru’s persona is also made difficult by the Malayalam he speaks in the film. The story’s inclusion of Divya Pillai’s character is forgettable. This film has a number of actors, including Alencier, Alexander Prashanth, Santhipriya, Sheelu Abraham, etc. who doesn’t make any impact.
Direction / Technical Side
Director Deepu Anthikkad is the captain behind the camera for Naalam Mura. Sooraj V. Dev wrote the movie’s screenplay. The movie is sleep-inducing because it adheres to a narrative framework that the audience has grown accustomed to watching. It is poorly scripted because neither the setup nor the conclusion are interesting enough. The film’s weak narrative extends clichéd sequences to their breaking point, which is the biggest issue with the picture. Many of the subplots in a movie are absolutely pointless distractions, and you find yourself continuously questioning the necessity of certain buildups.
In terms of the technical aspect, Shameer Muhammad is in charge of the editing for Naalam Mura, while S Loganathan is the director of photography. The songs were written by Kailas Menon, and the background music was written by Gopi Sundar. But the dull script prevents any of the material from being highlighted.
Verdict; In Naalaam Mura, there is no emotional connection. The movie frequently disappoints us by delivering unoriginal clichés when we keep anticipating something remarkable to occur. You constantly wonder why certain buildups are necessary, and many movie subplots are utterly meaningless diversionary devices. With two outstanding performers, it was undoubtedly a missed opportunity.
