Visited the temple of the other religion - Nandhalala yesterday night with Rajarasigan, TM and Hamid.
First half was bit dragging for me, may be too new for me. 2nd half was very good.
Songs and BGM - Too Good :notworthy: As Ramki mentioned above, IR fills the gap / vacuum with his music wherever necessary and appropriately!
I would not say this as movie of the year (Maybe this kind of movie is too new for me to fathom any hidden meaning). But, definitely worth a watch, atleast for 2nd half.

படத்தின் ஹீரோ சாட்சாத் இளையராஜாதான் என்பதில் மாற்றுக் கருத்தே இருக்காது. அவரது இசையைத் தவிர்த்துவிட்டு இந்தப் படத்தை 10 நிமிடம் கூட முழுசாகப் பார்க்க முடியாது!

“தாலாட்டு கேட்க நானும்...” என்று இளையராஜாவின் குரல் கேட்கும் நொடியில் கண்களில் இருந்து கண்ணீர் வழிந்தோடுவதை தடுக்க முடியவில்லை.

படத்தின் நாயகன் இளையராஜா. அவர் இசையமைத்த படங்களின் உச்சம் இது என்று நிச்சயம் கருதலாம். இளையராஜா இல்லாமல் இப்படத்தை ரசிக்க முடியுமா தெரியவில்லை. அம்மா என்றால் இளையராஜாவுக்கு கசக்குமா என்ன.. வெறியாட்டம் ஆடியிருக்கிறார் ராஜா. முழுக்க முழுக்க இளையராஜாவை நாயகனாக்கி அழகு பார்த்திருக்கிறார் மிஷ்கின். ஒவ்வொரு முறையும் பிண்ணனியில் ராஜாவின் குரலோ இசையோ வரும்போதெல்லாம் கண்களில் நீர்கசிவதை உங்களால் கட்டுப்படுத்தவே முடியாது. கதறி அழவைக்கிற உங்களை உருக்கி வார்க்கிற இசை.
No. Just CA and NJ for now. Check out bigcinemas.com. they may do it eventually.Quote:

At two places
A taut screenplay, scintillating shots and above all the flawless background score by Illayaraja sets up the momentum. A rare attempt on big screen, ‘Nandhalala’ goes on to say loudly that all hope is not lost in Tamil cinema.
The scene stealer is Illayaraja. The maestro has given flesh and blood to the movie. One wonders when was the last time we have seen the background score in a film evoking tears in our eyes. His good use of symphony orchestra is apt. Watch out for an 'Amma' song by the Isaignani in the movie
Nandalala starts slowly (in fact, very slowly as the first shot itself goes for around 2 minutes without moving the camera / background score). The first 40 min will be really a testimony of your patience.. I have to admit that I am NOT used to this kind of melodramatic road movies.. so it took me some time to get into the story. The movie picks up from the song Onnukonnu where Myskin did full justice with his picturization . From there on, it is a real treat to watch. There is NO doubt that IR lifted this movie to a different level with his score. I am very much impressed with the way he used the silence in the BGM .
More than IR's score, I was stunned with the visuals. Athum camerava ovvoru muraiyum pinna pogumbothu, you can expect a surprise. It was there in almost each and every scene. The first scene where Myskin was almost running towards us only to speak from a small hole "***** adichittu vandhurava"..
climax was very smooth and no cinematic (actually, I did NOT understand it well initially )
Performances are adequate to the movie.
Warning:
1. stay away from this movie if you can't watch off beat themes
2. better to book a odd time show. I was irked with the counter comments in the theater as audience were restless.
I hope I can watch this movie again...
Nandalala - A visual treat
I love road movies...that's movies not just have roads...the story happens while traveling... :swinghead:
the characters experience and encounters different kind of individuals, transform in their life.
road movies are all about subtle emotions felt, gorgeous nature & geography of excellent cinematography will increase the visual pleasure... the quite moments :musicsmile:
vinatha.
Give it back i say!Quote:
