The lack of craft is what makes this movie incredibly boring. The lighting is absolutely flat. Be it the happy moments at the beginning of the movie or the intense moments in the latter part of the movie; we have this ad film like bright lighting that just doesn’t communicate the emotion on screen. As I already said, the dialogues have this spoon-feeding nature, making the movie look silly on many levels. There is a scene where Meera asks Sruthi to get some water in a plastic bottle to get her fingerprint, and the film is a collection of such unsubtle moments. Prof. Satheesh Paul is just trying to tell a story here, and he doesn’t really care about the nuances of its presentation or the usage of the visual medium.
