Synopsis

Aata Vel Zaali

The true story of an existential crisis in the lives of an elderly couple who feel that they are leading unproductive and obsolete lives and hence seek active euthanasia as an unusual remedy. Shashidhar, a gentleman who has lived happily with his wife Ranjana Lele, wishes to make a dignified, painless exit before two likely calamities can befall them...either being reduced to a vegetative state or living a life deprived of the company of the spouse who passes first. Shashidhar and Ranjana attempt to convince a disbelieving world of their unorthodox outlook towards life and its reality until the universe itself conspires for an unexpected closure.

Ananth Narayan Mahadevan has written a story which, at the core, is depressing. It has sectional appeal only. His screenplay is average. The couple decide not to commit suicide because they fear that one of them may survive, but they don’t think about this same point when they set out to help people during COVID-19. Even otherwise, the drama moves on one single track only, making it monotonous. Besides, since the entire drama revolves around two persons only, it gets boring after a point. Mahendra Patil’s dialogues are good.
