Red Carpet's video: Kaattu Malayalam Full Movie Review Latest Malayalam Movie 2017

Kaattu Malayalam Full Movie Review | Latest Malayalam Movie 2017 Kaattu is a 2017 Indian Malayalam-language film directed by Arun Kumar Aravind. The film stars Asif Ali, Murali Gopy, Varalaxmi Sarathkumar and Manasa Radhakrishnan in lead roles. STORY: A lecherous and feisty Chelappan rescues a naive youth named Nuhukannu from his boorish boss and takes him into his gang of friends who run a firecracker unit. However Chelappan's past soon catches up with him and sows the seeds of doubt among Nuhukannu and others in this story of love, loyalty, treachery and remorse. REVIEW: There's a scene in Arun Kumar Aravind's latest directorial Kaattu, where Chelappan (Murali Gopy), a womaniser, pokes fun at a naive and petulant Nuhukannu (Asif Ali) and hints that he visited the house of the latter's crush. It's the sort of scene in which the audience is exposed to the two sides of Chelappan - as a man who cares for his younger friend and doesn't mind pulling his leg but also as one who has a lecherous side and cannot be easily trusted. For most of the movie, the film's scriptwriter Ananthapadmanabhan delves deep in to the characters' psyche, fleshing them well and presenting real characters with raw emotions. The movie starts off in a village in Tamil Nadu, where honour killing is followed. It introduces a few characters and the rules of the land, before the story switches to Kerala. Here, we are let in to the world of Nuhukannu and Chelappan, played expertly by Asif and Murali respectively. The first half is entirely focused on establishing the virtues and vices of the characters and Ananthapadmanabhan presents them as they are just like the movie's landscape - rugged and brusque. The entire story is set in the late 70s and hence technology is absent. Prashanth Ravindran's cinematography pulls the audience in to sepia, spaghetti western-like tone.
