Neelathamara is the remake of an old malayalam movie with the same name Neelathamara. This is the first time in the history of malayalam film, an yesteryear malayalam movie is being remade. MT Vasudevan Nair did the re-writing of the old script and it is reflected in the entire movie.

The movie passes through the yester-years showing some nostalgic moments in the life of our Heroine Kunji Malu (Archana Kavi). Archana got lagre applause from the crowd whenever she appeared in the big screen. Rima Kallingal did the role of Ammini, who is a friend of Kunjimalu, had a small role and she did that very well. The sory is entirely based on the heroine. Even our hero Kamalesh had a small role.

Apart from the title song, there are two other songs in the movie. One of them has already become a hit. Lyricsist Vayalar Sarath Varma and music director Vidyasagar deserves the entire credit. Till the Interval the movie is much interesting with some love scenes and one song, and the song really hit the deck. The song "Anuraga Vilochanaayi.." got very huge applause from the audience. The Camera man Vijay had done a fair better job.

After the interval the movie enters nto a sentimental mood. Samrutha Sunil was the another character in the movie and she appeared after the interval. She also did a nice work. She did the role of Ratnam, who is the wife of our hero. About 30 minutes after the interval, the flashback ends and moves to real life. The second half is totally predictable one and truly speaking, the climax didn't did the trick. It was not up to the mark. The story ends with telling us nothing. A Pathetic climax I would say.

Any way its worth watching the film because of the songs and some goot acting by Archana. The song will give some mileage to the movie thats of sure.

I Will give 5.5/10 for the movie
and 8/10 for ArchanaKavi.
