Silanthi
Movie Review and Stills

Silanthi
directed by former journalist Adhiraj is complete and is all
set for release on March 28. It is an edge of the seat
romantic thriller with Munna and Monica in the lead. Very
rarely we come across movies that defy set sentiments and
superstitions prevailing in Tamil film world. ‘Silanthi’,
directed by journalist Aadhiraj, seems to be one such film.
The title itself was deemed
as an unfortunate thing in the industry circle. The reason
behind the belief is that the hurdles faced by Sarath -
Jyothika starrer ‘Pachaikili Muthucharam’, which was
initially named as ‘Silanthi’. The title was considered as a
doomed one and hence it was changed as ‘Pachaikili
Muthucharam’. It is a different story that the film went on
to become a big failure despite the sentimental amendments.
Aadhiraj, however, has the
courage to choose the ‘ill-fated’ title. Monica, who acted in
Thankar Bachchan’s ‘Azhagi’, and Jayabaduri’s sister’s son
Munna have teamed up for the movie.
Even the selection of
Fauziya, a woman cinematographer, is against a sentiment.
Fauziya, who worked in the movie ‘Uyir’, was alleged by the
producer with sluggish work that caused the delay of the
movie. Aadhiraj was unperturbed by the sentiment and went
with his choice. Subsequently, Fauziya has lived up to his
expectation by helping the director to finish the movie
within 60 days.
‘Silanthi’ has thus defied
twin sentiments by sticking to the title and cinematographer
chosen by the director unmindful of what others think about
both. The fact that the movie has been finished within very
short span without any hiccup has proved the doomsayers
wrong.
Let us hope the film would
further disprove the sentiments by becoming a big hit.
