[tscii:b6e76fdc42]‘Kanchivaram’- A new funda from Priyan
IndiaGlitz [Wednesday, March 04, 2009]

Normally when a movie directed by the ace film maker Priyadarshan is to hit big screens, it is easy for us to make certain presumptions about the nature of the flick. We assume that the movie is going to be a complete entertainer loaded with slapstick humour for which the director is famous for.

The case is entirely different with the film called ‘Kanchivaram’, Priyan’s first fully realistic movie.

The film which was well received with a standing ovation at the prestigious Toronto Film Festival caught many film makers as well as film buffs by surprise.

Till film was screened none thought that Priyan had the skill to make such a serious film based on a subject that is relevant in the contemporary times too. Seems the subject of the movie was resting inside its maker’s mind for several years.

Finally when it came out in the form of a movie, Priyadarshan had fulfilled a long-held ambition. He had satisfied his wish to make a movie just for the sake of emotional reasons and not aimed at any commercial gains.

But the director will be least perturbed on how the people are going to assess the movie when it gets to the cinema halls on March 13.

The film has the versatile Prakash Raj donning the lead role of a silk saree weaver named Vengadam in Kanchivaram known as Canjeevaram during the British rule of India. The film follows the ordeals of Vengadam as he fights his extremely poor living conditions to keep a promise he had made to his new born daughter.

The movie also has Shriya Reddy playing the role of Vengadam’s wife and is produced by Shailendra Singh.

The music has been composed by famous play back signer M.G.Sreekumar and Arun Kumar is the editor.[/tscii:b6e76fdc42]

Naan yerkanave pathuttene :boo:

Will watch it again in Theatre :yes:

What a movie :bow:

Naanum Parthutten :D

Excellent Movie :thumbsup:

'kAlApAni' (siRaichchAlai in Thamizh) was also a serious movie by Priyan, so calling this the first 'realistic' movie and removing all others as slap-sticks is somewhat far-fetched.

Even his 'thALavattam' was a relatively serious flick...

[VENKIRAJA]

This is easily one of the best ever movies made in Tamil, if not elsewhere- IMHO. :D

[tscii:f7a01475f5]Priyan's Kanchivaram on March 13.
By Moviebuzz | Thursday, 05 March , 2009, 10:42

Priyadarshan’s critically acclaimed Kanchivaram will have a theatrical release in Chennai on March 13.

The film has been screened at all the major film festivals in the world where critics have gone ga-ga over it. The film is also an eye opener to how communism had its roots in Tamilnadu through the weavers of Kanchivaram.

Says Priyadarshan: “ It is my best film till date and my team of cameraman Thiru, art director Sabu Cyril and music director M.G Sreekumar have also done a brilliant job.”

The film produced by Percept Picture Company in association with Four Frames is releasing in four Chennai screens.[/tscii:f7a01475f5]

Please search somewhere like 4shared.com and download IDM with crack. It helps in downloading youtube or other streaming videos also. Check my blog post for more details. Mods, you could have kept the thread. Still, PMs entertained :D

[leosimha]

oops!!! I do have a torrent software bittorrent but saw some posts which were talking about ddl. and IDM.

I knew about IDM earlier only but as Internet Download Manager (I am not good at abbreviations) and re-checked whether they have made it Freeware from Shareware.

Yes, I will have to try out the cracked versions, that's the only option.

Anyways, thank you very much for the information, Anban and Venkiraja.

Coming back to Kanchivaram, who all have watched the movie?

[leosimha]

is this the same priyadarshan who had directed billu barber?

[viraajan]

Brilliant, beautiful, Realistic, disturbing. Ruined my peace of mind. Prakashraj at his best once again especially in the climax. Wow... :bow: He is gifted!!!!

Plus:

Story
Screenplay
Direction
Dialogues
Music especially the solo Violin in the BGM. Dwells so well.
Prakash Raj
and almost every character in the movie.

//I've not mentioned anything about the camerawork as it is a theater print :ashamed:

Minus:
Really nothing.

//May be I'll have to watch it again to find a minus point.

Watch it. Watch it. Watch it.

[VENKIRAJA]

is this the same priyadarshan who had directed billu barber?

Yeah. avaru thAn. Lesa Lesa kooda priyadarshan thAn.

Viraajan- Cinematography in the movie was awesome. I got a similar 'Preview copy' as well, but it isn't a Cam-rip.

unconfirmed news : Prakash Raj winning Best actor award for Kaanjeevaram ,National award ,which is going to be announced on coming monday.

I am not a great fan of actor Prakash Raj ,but his performance in Kanjeevaram deserves national award,as i mentioned in hub after viewing Kanjeevaram 8-)

It seems Kanjeevaram won 2 more awards for best movie and direction.

Did you note the 'mudhal mariyaadhai' statement in the end ?

Apparently the 'missing toe' scene was there in Ki. RajanarayaNan's novel கோபல்ல கிராமம்.
