Movie Review of ANAMIKA
movie script are like rubber band. Try stretch the group beyond a tip and it’s sure to provide away. The script of ANAMIKA suffers for this cause!Director Ananth Narayan Mahadevan present every series with greatest care till the interval point. You’re hooked, you’re elated to the world of Mrs. Anamika Sisodiya, the nature who continue to haunt everybody in this movie, even after she’s gone. You keenly look ahead to the twist in the tale.Alas! What eventually unfolds, although filmed with the same genuineness, lacks conviction. It also fails to shock you because midway through the trip, you know what the result would finally be. It doesn’t keep you guess. And that’s bad information for any thriller!
Frankly, a anticipation saga works only if it is backed by a hard climax. In ANAMIKA, the worry gradually builds up till the peak, but the end is so tame, so contrived that you exclaim, ‘Gosh! What was that?’
As a narrator, Ananth almost gets it right — he has handle the multifaceted theme like a pro, even extract persuasive performance from his set of actor, has worked hard on maintain the frame of mind of the film from create to end — but he’s disappointment by the writing in the next hour.ANAMIKA tells the tale of an escort Jia [Minissha Lamba], who gets wedded to Vikram Sisodiya [Dino Morea] after a 2-day courtship. Before marrying Jia, Vikram confesses that his first wife, Anamika, had die under strange situation.
Vikram and Jia fly to Vikram’s family home in Gajner in Rajasthan. The house, a palace to be exact, is being looked after by Vikram’s early days friend Malini [Koena Mitra]. Now begin the story… everybody in Gajner appear to be fanatical with Anamika and Jia starts sensing it. In fact, Jia is continually compare to Anamika. Worse, she even sees Anamika’s strength in the palace.In a turn of proceedings, Anamika’s dead body is bare and the police [Gulshan Grover, Dino's brother-in-law] revive the case. All fingers point towards Vikram. Is he the murderer?
insecurely based on the novel ‘Rebecca’, ANAMIKA is a hard subject to make. But after the initial hiccups, the director succeed in connecting the viewer in the strange world of Anamika. The backdrop of Rajasthan, the isolated fortress and the reference to Anamika at every point only deepens the mystery. So far so high-quality!Almost the entire first half is executed with élan by Ananth, who’s only full-grown as a narrator over the years. But, as mention earlier, the writing [in the second hour] acts as a killjoy. Without wanting to reveal the peak, let’s just say that it’s one of those tame and unsurprising endings that we’ve visit time and again.
Anu Malik’s melody is pleasant, but the songs [the ones filmed in Thailand] and the composition in exacting of these track don’t really gel with the frame of mind of the movie. Pushan Kripalani’s photography is alright. The dramatic locales of Rajasthan, the manufacture plan [Gayatri Marwah] as also the style is praiseworthy. Aadesh Shrivastava’s backdrop score deserve particular mention. It’s outstanding.Dino Morea surprise you with a controlled presentation. Also, he carry the royal look persuasively. Minissha Lamba is a exposure. She’s getting better and better with every let go. Koena Mitra is unequaled. Gulshan Grover is effectual. Achint Kaur is highly capable. Vishwajeet Pradhan and Jatin Grewal are okay.On the entire, ANAMIKA is disappointment by its writing in the second hour. At the box-office, the not-too-interesting face-value joined with the continuing cricket mania will only go next to it.
