Meanwhile the relationship between Rasa and Angamma results in the latter turning pregnant. Rasa plans to meet his new born child and Angamma, but he is denied by the landlord to take a break from work and his struggles begin at the tea estate with revelation of the true colors of landlord. Rest of the story is to be watched on big-screens.
Performances
Adharvaa is stunning throughout the movie. He carried many emotions through his eyes. His extreme physical and mental effort can be seen clearly on screen. Adharvaa climax performance is just mind blowing.
Vedhika is sure to make a mark with her character which has both shades. She has showed the expertise performance as village girl and her scenes with Adharvaa worked really very well.
Dhansika performance is absolute stunning in her first flick. She acted as abandoned mother of 2 children. Dhansika’s show stealing performance in climax is another asset to this film. All other cast has done justice to their roles.
Technical Analysis
Cinematography by Chezhiyan is brilliant, the locales of 1940 village and tea plant are well captured and camera work stands out in the film. Musical scores are excellent while background score is quite impressive. Action sequences are fantastically shot. Bala has succeeded again in direction department while screenplay is interesting. Editing by Kishore Te, who made the cuts perfect without any flaws is outstanding. Paradesi is technically brilliant.
Analysis
Director Bala has come up with innovative story line.. Paradesi is based on novel The Red Tea (written by Paul Harris). Director Bala succeeded in showing the lives of village people who are forced to work in tea plantations. The first half is smooth going with few heart touching scenes and interval bang is absolute outstanding. In the second half of the movie Adharvaa steals the show with his sheer acting skills along with Dhansika who plays the role of abandoned mother of 2 children. Climax is remarkable.
With no commercial elements, we are yet to see how the Tamil movie lovers will receive the film. Nonetheless, the film will be loved by Bala fans and remains as one of his best works.
Final Verdict
Paradesi is surely going to be a landmark film for Tamil cinema.
