Solo

Director :Bejoy Nambiar
Genre : Anthology
Language:Malayalam
Year :2017


In Solo,four different stories are told based on a theme.The director depicts the four versions of Lord Shiva,connecting the heroes to four elements.In each story Dulquer Salman plays the hero.

*World of Shekar - Water

A love story between a young man and girl.The guy adapts to the situations and challenges and face them,just like water which can change to any form.

Not the greatest performance from Dq,but he has done well.

There were sequences which played in the wrong order and it made it uneasy to follow.

Dansika looked beautiful but the dubbing sucked.

*World of Trilok - Air

A revenge story told in a thrilling style.The hero is just like the wind - comforting and smooth but something which has the power to destroy.

Dq killed it as Trilok

Thrilling.Powerful.My favorite among the four.All the actors were good.

*World of Shiva - Fire

A gangster story set in Kochi and Mumbai.Shiva burns like the fire,not knowing how to calm down,burning everything that touches him.

Dq has given a powerful performance with minimum dialogues

It was a story which was told many times before. Even if it confuses in the middle,eveything connects in the end. Manoj K Jayan was good.Heroine was a disaster.

*World of Rudra - Earth

This was also a love story with a twist at the end.It felt like a fun ride,which ended with a twist. Rudra was like Earth,stuborn 

Dq pulled off Rudra quite well.

My second favorite among the four stories. Neha impressed as the cute heroine and all others were perfect for the roles.

The motion graphics and lines told with them was a good introduction to each story.

So,end of the day, a different experience.

Not the greatest from the director who gave us 'Shaitan' and 'Wazir',but not bad as many claimed.

Not everyone's cup of tea,but one need to drink it to know.I liked it...
