Arike (2012)
Love exist
Shyama Prasad is one of the best young generation directors in Malayalam cinema
Arike is a film that dwells on love and friendship.Its a gently paced movie,but very realistic one. Dileep (shanthanu),the protagonist is in love with Samvrutha (Kalpana),but has some doubts whether she has the same intensity in the affair. Kalpana's friend, Mamtha Mohandas (Anuradha) is a messenger or mediator in their relationship and thinks Shanthanu and Kalpana are the final lovers in the world. How Anuradha regains the faith in the existence of love is the central theme of the movie. The dialogues are penned the same way most lovers speak in this part of the world,and i have not seen such an attempt before.
I recommend it for those who don't want the movie to be an pacey bullet train,but a soulful cycle ride.
