ലോക: ചാപ്റ്റർ 1 – ചന്ദ്ര : ഒരു പുതു അനുഭവം



 
സിനിമ തുടങ്ങിയത് തന്നെ പ്രേക്ഷകനെ മറ്റൊരു ലോകത്തേക്ക് കൊണ്ടുപോകുന്നു. കേരളത്തിന്റെ മിത്തുകളും കഥകളും ചേർത്ത്, സാങ്കേതിക വൈഭവത്തോടെ തുറന്നുകിടക്കുന്ന ഒരു സ്വപ്നലോകം.

കല്യാണി പ്രിയദർശൻ അവതരിപ്പിച്ച ചന്ദ്ര, ഒരു സൂപ്പർഹീറോയാകുന്നതിലും കൂടുതലായി, സ്ത്രീശക്തിയുടെ പ്രതീകമായി മാറുന്നു. ഇടവേളയ്ക്കുശേഷം ഉയരുന്ന രംഗങ്ങൾ ശരീരമാകെ വിറയിപ്പിക്കുന്ന goosebumps സമ്മാനിക്കുന്നു.

ജേക്ക്സ് ബീജോയ് ഒരുക്കിയ സംഗീതവും, നിർമിഷ് രവിയുടെ ക്യാമറയും ചേർന്ന് ചിത്രത്തിന്റെ ഭാവനാശക്തിയെ ഇരട്ടിയാക്കുന്നു. സ്ക്രീനിൽ തെളിയുന്ന ഓരോ ഫ്രെയിമും മലയാള സിനിമയിൽ അപൂർവ്വമായ വിഷ്വൽ എക്സ്പീരിയൻസ് ആയി തോന്നുന്നു.

അവസാനം, സിനിമ തീർന്നിട്ടും മനസ്സിൽ ഒരു ചോദ്യം മാത്രം— “ചാപ്റ്റർ 2 എപ്പോഴാണ് വരുന്നത്?”

Santosh (2024) – A Quietly Devastating Crime Drama That Holds Up a Mirror to Society

Image
In an era of cinematic spectacle, where loud storytelling often drowns out subtle truths, Santosh (2024) emerges as a rare voice of quiet resistance. Directed by Sandhya Suri and starring the formidable Shahana Goswami, this Hindi-language crime drama is not just a film—it’s an indictment, a meditation, and above all, a mirror to the deeply entrenched social fault lines in India. Plot Overview: A Uniform, A System, A Disappearance The story follows Santosh Saini (Shahana Goswami), a 28-year-old widow in rural North India who is appointed as a police constable through India’s "compassionate appointment" system. Her induction into the force—meant to be a financial lifeline—turns into a moral and emotional crucible when she’s assigned to a case involving the disappearance of a Dalit girl. As Santosh struggles to find her footing in the bureaucratic jungle of law enforcement, she is mentored (and later morally tested) by the hardened Inspector Geeta Sharma (Sunita Raj...

No More Back Benchers: Rethinking Classroom Seating Inspired by the Malayalam movie 'Sthanarthi Sreekuttan'

Image
Introduction: A New Vision from Cinema The Malayalam movie 'Sthanarthi Sreekuttan' offers a revolutionary classroom idea. In this vision, the term 'back benchers' doesn’t exist. This may seem like a fantasy, but it carries a strong message about equality, engagement, and the psychology of learning. In many classrooms, seating positions reflect a hierarchy, with front benchers seen as the attentive achievers and back benchers viewed as distractible outsiders. This new model challenges that bias and promotes a democratic and inclusive learning space. Why the 'Back Bencher' Label Needs to Go Traditional row-based seating creates psychological and physical gaps between students and the teacher. Back benchers often feel ignored, disengaged, or stereotyped. This limits their participation, motivation, and connection to learning. A reimagined layout ensures that every student, no matter where they sit, get...
