Chinna Chinna Aasai review: Indrans, Madhoo lead an underwhelming tale of self-discovery | Movie-review News

Chinna Chinna Aasai review: Indrans, Madhoo lead an underwhelming tale of self-discovery | Movie-review News

Chinna Chinna Aasai Movie Review: There’s something oddly fascinating about sitting down to watch a two-hander, particularly since it pretty much has to defy the “show, don’t tell” commandment of visual storytelling while also avoiding boring the audience with the abundance of dialogues. While it’s easy for creators to make a film featuring nonstop back-and-forth exchanges between the central characters, the real challenge in crafting a two-hander lies in sidestepping that pitfall and making an artistically impressive work instead. Debutant director Varsha Vasudev’s Chinna Chinna Aasai revolves around two middle-aged people, Madhavan (Indrans) and Leela (Madhoo Shah), whose lives take a turn when fate brings them together in Varanasi (Kashi), Uttar Pradesh. While on one of his regular visits to Varanasi, Madhavan, a Malayali, meets Leela, who hails from Thanjavur in Tamil Nadu. After getting separated from her tour group and having her belongings stolen, Leela is petrified and unsure of what to do next. When Madhavan offers to help, she is initially suspicious and hesitant. But with no other option, she goes along with …

Patriot Kerala Box Office: Mammootty and Mohanlal starrer spy thriller continues underwhelming run, crosses Rs 25 crore mark in 6 days

Patriot Kerala Box Office: Mammootty and Mohanlal starrer spy thriller continues underwhelming run, crosses Rs 25 crore mark in 6 days

Malayalam film Patriot couldn’t show any sort of growth at the box office. The movie added another Rs. 2.20 crore to the tally on its Day 6, bringing the 6-day cume to Rs. 25.75 crore gross at the Kerala box office.  Starring Mammootty and Mohanlal in the lead roles, along with Fahadh Faasil, Kunchacko Boban, Nayanthara, Revathy, Darshana, and others, the movie is looking to close its first week at Rs. 27 crore. That will be an underwhelming total for a film of this stature.  The Mahesh Narayanan directorial needs to pick up in the second weekend in order to reach a respectable total. Patriot was earlier seen as a potential Rs. 100 crore grosser, but now it is even struggling to reach the Rs. 50 crore gross mark in Kerala. Let’s see whether it can see some growth over the coming days or not.  Day-wise box office collections of Patriot in Kerala are as follows:  Day Box Office 1 Rs. 8.50 crore 2 Rs. 5.25 crore 3 Rs. 5.00 crore  4 Rs. 2.60 crore 5 …

Stephen Fleming calls for patience, insists underwhelming Indian rookies would be of ‘high value’ in future | Cricket News

Fifteen years of coaching Chennai Super Kings has instilled in Stephen Fleming a sense of equanimity. Even in the darkest of hours, he remains unflustered and lets pragmatism rein over emotions. After suffering the third defeat of the season, which is swiftly unravelling, Fleming insisted that transitions take time and stressed on the wealth of the young talent at the team’s disposal. “I think we’ve got some really good talent. This is, there’s five or six new players that have started this season, but we think they are of high value moving forward,” he reiterated. Questions swirled on auction tactics, on the over-emphasis on young Indians and the jettisoning of seasoned personnel. Lungi Ngidi for instance. The team acquired Uttar Pradesh all-rounder Prashant Veer and Rajasthan wicket-keeper Kartik Sharma for a combined Rs 28.4 crore, that is almost 70 percent of their auction purse. Fleming reasoned: “As we reviewed last season, we had to spend a lot of money on Indian talent, so as to regenerate the franchise and create a foundation moving forward.” “We’d …
