Most actors would choose a movie that would rotate around their character when making a comeback. But yet again +Meera Jasmin proves she's not of the regular pack and is out to play a different ball game altogether. 10 Kalpanakal has all the makings of a flamboyant entertainer but eventually, beyond all the flash and colour is a serious message that's shouted out loud and clear.
With her role as investigating police officer Shazia Akbar, Meera Jasmin has obviously chosen to take a step away from the regular roles one would normally associate her with. Of course many an actress has played the role of a police officer, but unlike most she doesn't attempt to show off how hot she would look in tight khakis nor does she deliver loud and lengthy dialogues nor does she try to add to the glamour that the director obviously attempts to spike the movie with. Instead she enacts an effortless and dignified presentation of a young officer well aware of the burden the responsibility on her shoulder weighs.
+ANOOP MENON is equally flawless in his role as a god fearing family man, unable to comprehend even the slightest of evils normal in today's world.
The simple joys of a happy family are portrayed effortlessly as well.
However, working across the madness of a revolting mind, the movie gives you a glimpse of why the mad are beyond hope and repair.
The entire film revolves around a series of violent murders, committed by an obvious psychopath, and eventually rests on a murder that turns unexpected twists in the tale.
Just when you figure you've got it all figured out the whole tale takes yet another spin that brings you to the edge of your seat, before the climax turns everything around again!
The movie though interspersed with all the theatrics of showy blockbuster could perhaps have done better with a touch of reality in its presentation, but thankfully that shortcoming has been pretty much balanced out by the high voltage performances of the actors.
Definitely enjoyable and if you support the cause then yes this is a must see.
Every day we witness horrific acts of atrociousness committed against defenceless women. Every day we're shocked at how often guilty brutes are allowed to go scot-free all because of a loophole or two in a legal system that's supposedly in place to protect the rights of its citizens.
Eventually when law fails, justice still prevails.
