Only very few movies wake up our senses and drills down into our heart and remain green for more time.
Only very few directors are bold enough to try some new formula and bring the right composition.
Only very few producers dare to invest money on story, not on the star cast.
:Payanam" is one such movie, "Radha Mohan" is one such director & "Prakash Raj" is one such producer.
After two consecutive successes, this director & producer have tied up again to give public a wonderful movie.
Movie begins with flight from chennai to delhi being hijacked by Terrosists group. Terrorists demand the pilot to move the flight over to Rawalpindi (pakistan), but due to techincal fault ends up landing in tirupathi. They demand the release of Yousuf khan, the terrorist who is under Military Custody. To save 100's of passengers inside the flight which includes a Union minister, the government accepts to the release demand of yousuf khan. Unfortunately he dies while transferring him from kashmir to Tirupathi due to heavy snow slide. Wat happens next and how passengers are being saved forms the remaining part of the story.
Simple story, Clear screenplay, heart touching dialogues makes the movie a special one. Director has done everything right about the movie. Especially last 15 minutes of the film is so good, making payanam a definite watch. Kudos to director for making the viewers stay on their seats with their belts fastened throughout the movie.
Nagarjuna has done perfectly well and fits perfectly into the shoes of an NSC commando. Prakash Raj as Home secretary, has lived in that role. MS basker as priest, Thalaivasal vijay as Retired colonel officer, "Deal ah No deal ah" fame Rishi as a doctor, have all performed their roles neatly. But its chaam as an ardent fan of Prithviraj (as a cine actor) captures the smile in all the viewers faces. Every time, he expects that his super hero would do something to rescue his passengers, but, prithviraj turns his hopes down. His reactions to this makes viewers burst into laughter.
Camera & Art works are really appreciable. Praveen Mani's Re recording suits the emotions and actions. Gannavel's Dialogues brings life to the travel.
Though the pace slows down slightly in the second half for a while, it bounces back when commando operation begins. Director has beautifully portrayed how media spoils the entire show just to increase their TRP rating. There is a lesson for politicians, media & general Public.
In short"Payanam" is a must watch and I happily rate it at 4on 5.
