Review

Hesham Abdul Wahab – one can’t ignore this name while talking about the grand success of Hridayam. His music oozes beauty and let the movie and characters flow into the hearts of viewers. Vineet Sreenivasan is a master in filmmaking and who treats the process as an art. With right way of placing songs, he simply proved that people won’t even feel that the song is a hurdle in a movie. There is a total of 15 songs in this almost 3 hour movie, still it flows like a stream!

Hridayam is a beautiful musical journey for a viewer. While onscreen, it is about the journey of a man through his campus life and afterwards. Pranav Mohanlal was exceptional as Arun Neelakandan. He portrayed various shades of Arun from his campus to family life with perfection. This should have been his debut in Malayalam cinema and it would have been awesome.

The casting team deserves a huge applause. Each and everyone in Hridayam has their own importance and contribute their part to the story. From Arun’s friends to his family everyone were casted perfectly.

With apt background music, Hridayam is a treat for your ears and your soul itself!


Conclusion

A Vineeth Sreenivasan magic!
