thuruppugulan ( 2006 film )
many malayalam movies released in 2006 managed to impress viewers and critics and the year ends on an optimistic note for the film industry. while the superstars maintained their lead, youngsters came up with a few surprises too .
* * * the big five 'classmates,' 'rasathantram,' 'keerthichakra,' 'thuruppugulan,' 'lion' and 'baba kalyani.' (this report is based on box office collections and the cost of the film as per trade reports from producers, distributors and exhibitors in kerala. )
the troubles they land in and how they resolve it to successfully lead a married life forms the rest of the film .
mammootty is in the lead of this commercial comedy entertainer directed by johny antony. sneha plays the lead in the film. alex paul' s music is entertaining and in sync with the mood of the film. laced with stunning songs here is an entertainer to look forward to .
kerala varma pazhassi raja is a 2009 malayalam historical drama film based on the life of pazhassi raja, a hindu king who fought against the british in the 18th century .
thuruppugulan story is focused on kochuthoma (innocent) and his son kunjumon (mammootty). kochuthoma is running a typical street side
thattukada
in kochi. at the age of ten, kunjumon accidentally injures a person. after the incident when his son faced trouble to stay at kochi, kochuthoma sent him to kozhikode to stay with his dear friend swami (jagathy) .
the film opens with a ‘manthravadi’ (thilakan) an evil magician (pithamagan mahadevan) to obey to his commands and make spiriting away a friendly ghost money through crime. meanwhile a group of kids and their benefactors are held hostage in a circus camp by the baddies, who has taken over the show .
the biggest blockbuster in the history of malayalam cinema was the lal jose directed “classmates” which according to trade may collect a distributor’s share of rs 10 crore! . the superstar domination continued in malayalam cinema as mammootty and mohanlal were only actors who commanded an opening which is very crucial for the success of a film .
dileep had six releases and among them only “lion” and “chess” were hits. suresh gopi had a record seven releases but only one film “”chinthamani kolacase” was a hit. it was jagathy sreekumar who did maximum number of films, a record 21 in character roles. jayaram had a “madhuchandralekha” an average grosser. kalabhavan mani did not have a great year .
the film starts with unni (dileep), who hails from a royal family, returning from prison. he had killed the son of a large family who are now searching for him. unni' s parents take him to chennai and enroll him in a law college. there he meets meenakshi (rambha) who falls in love with him. unni had a feud with meera' s brother' s gang at the college. as always, unni wins. so they send a
killer
to break his arms, who runs away on seeing unni. meera falls in love with him. unni saves meera her brother and they become friends .
the film, set at city centre, a shopping mall in kochi as backdrop, is all about a few youngsters, roy and sanju and their love interests, annie and meenakshy. long - ignored and mistreated by society for reasons none of theirs, they decide to take matters into their own hands. roy (vineeth sreenivasan) is an accountant in a private financing company of kaustubhan, (deftly played with ease and characteristic gags by jagathy) who pays his staff, the modest of all salaries. sanju (vinu mohan) is a desperate cricketer, left out of ranji team, who is working in the same commercial mall in an electronics shop .
the film begins in the childhood of babumon and babulal chatterji and their mischievous behavior. then it progresses in to a grown up version of both. they run into some troubles with monayi and varki who are the brother and father of angel, babu' s love interest, and their right hand manikandan. when a bengali worker falls prey to a trap laid by manikandan to kill babu, it turns out to be a life changer. while taking the body back to kolkatta, babu and angel elope in the ambulance to register their marriage there, chatergee takes up the driving, shanthi who is babulal' s love interest is also there and soman to see bengal .
it was another memorable year for malayalam cinema at the box - office with 64 releases and among them half a dozen turned out to be hits. there were some meaningful off - beat films which were critically acclaimed .
lal jose directed “classmates” turned out to be a cult classic in malayalam. the young guns - pritviraj, jayasurya, indrajeet, narain, kavya madhavan and radhika have become a rage not only among the youth but also family audiences in the state. the songs written by vayalar sarthchandra varma and tuned by alex paul have become chartbusters and “classmates” has become the largest selling audio in recent times .
mohanlal had a dream run with six releases - “rasathantram”, “vadakkumnathan”, “keerthichakra”, “mahasamudram”, “photographer” and ‘baba kalyani” with only “photographer” turning out to be a flop. among them, “rasathantram” and ‘keerthichakra” were blockbusters .
mammootty had seven releases with “thuruppu gulan”, “balram vs taradas”, “prajapathi”, “bhargava charitham moonam khandam”, “pothenvava”, “karuthapakshikal” and “palunku”. for him only “thuruppu gulam” turned out to be a super hit but his off beat films like “karuthapakshikal”, and “palunku” received a lot of critical acclaim .
among heroines it was kavya madhavan who did maximum number of films at six, including the blockbuster “classmates”. padmapriya had five releases and gopiak had four. there were no women centric films. heroines from kerala are making a beeline to kollywood and among them nayanthara and now bhavana have made rapid strides. nitya das, mamta mohandas, mukta have also moved out to kollywood. at the same time out of work girls in kollywood like sneha, lakshmi gopalaswamy, laila, aditi rao and padmapriya are in great demand in superstar films .
audience apathy continues towards young stars. the youth brigade of pritviraj, jayasurya, arun and others continues to struggle and could not make any ripples at the box - office. pritiviraj’s films like “vargam”, “vaasthavam and “pakal” which were good in content turned out to be damp squibs at the box - office. the bottom line is that the box - office is booming for the biggies while the quality of films being churned out is abysmal .

the movie starts with khaled muhammad aka baba (sharat saxena) in jail telling one of his henchmen to kill the kerala chief minister ravi menon (murali). sahadevan (dileep) is the son of a police constable (oduvil unnikrishnan) who works in the dog squad. sahadevan has only one ambition and that is to join the police department and for that he has cleared the exams and is waiting for the physical test. but he has an enemy, his own brother - in - law peethambaran (jagathy sreekumar) who does not like him. some of baba' s henchmen with the help of commissioner gauri shankar (ashish vidyarthi) plan to kill the cm by placing a bomb in his room in the hospital when ravi menon was unwell .

roy has a soft corner for annie (bhama) who works as a receptionist in a travel agency in the same complex. and meenakshy (sandhya), the daughter of kaushtubhan, is madly in love, always chasing sanju .
then it happens that her family members are all politicians. soon they become family friends and they fix the marriage between unni and meera. unni then narrates his flashback to meera .
the movie is all about the relationships between two rare bred men from extremely different strata of society, but more in common than is apparent from the first look. they might have never run into each other, with their stark contrast in nature and life styles and would have hardly given each other a second look, if they hadn' t met in these defined circumstances. but the movie throws them together, intertwined in worst of their days and progressively built in the rapport between the extremes, and infuses the spirit of worthy and meaningful life to all in the screen and those who watches them on screen .

catch sivarasan alive, before he consumes the deadly cyanide .
