Neelakasaham Pachakadal Chuvanna Bhoomi (NPCB) - Movie Review

Updated: Saturday, August 10, 2013, 11:12 [IST]

Samir Thahir's latest directorial venture Neelakasham Pachakadal Chuvanna Bhoomi (NPCB) is one of the most-hyped movies of the year 2013. The movie was in news prior to its release owing to its star cast. The movie is the first of its kind in the industry and is an above average flick.

Neelakasham Pachakadal Chuvanna Bhoomi tells the story about two college students Kasi (Dulquar Salman) and Suni (Sunny Wayne), who plans a road trip to Nagaland from Kerala, in search of love and life. The film has mainly targetted today's youth, who enjoy their life with bikes, road trips, girls and parties. The movie is more like a treat for them. The movie carries a good message too.

Dulquar Salman has once again proved himself as a performer. The 'kurudi' Sunny Wayne has also performed an equally important role in Neelakasham Pachakadal Chuvanna Bhoomi. All other cast including the heroines Surja Bala and Enna Saha who made their debut in the industry with NPCB, have done justice to their roles.

The visuals in Neelakasham Pachakadal Chuvanna Bhoomi is the highlight as it speaks more than dialogues. The storyline is very intersting and has been very well supported by the entire cast and crew of the film. The visuals are outstanding with a good background score. The movie has good humour laced around it because of which the audience will not be bored. The music suits the story of the film, but otherwise, it's slightly disappointing.

Neelakasham Pachakadal Chuvanna Bhoomi drags slightly towards the end. There is nothing much in the movie for a mass audience. The movie does not have too many cliches in it. It is not just a road movie, but it also throws light on the current politics, friendship, etc.
