After years of gap, director Rajesh Pillai has given us a wonderful movie, well framed and blended with scenes which keep the audience on the verge of the seat till the end. In this movie we have Sreenivasan, Kunchacko Boban, Rahman, Asif Ali and Vineeth Sreenivasan as the five lead protagonists whose stories are narrated through the sequences. The five-men casted as a traffic police constable (Sudevan Nair),a doctor (Dr. Abel), a film star (Siddarth), a college student (Rajeev) and a journalist (Rehan) respectively, who accidentally gets to meet at a traffic island. This meeting is all set to change the lives of all and how this happens forms the crux of “Traffic”.
It all takes place on the 16th of September, where Rehan (Vineeth Sreenivasan) is excited about joining his dream job as journalist and is set out along with his friend Rajeev (Asif Ali) for his first task at India vision, an interview of famous hero Siddarth Shankar (Rahman) . Aditi (Sandhya), getting over a divorce, sees him off and looks forward to something more. Dr. Abel (Kunchacko Boban) who plans to surprise his wife Shwetha (Remya Nambeesan) with a brand new car on their wedding anniversary & Sudevan Nair (Sreenivasan) who is back at work after a brief suspension for having accepted bribes. On that day Superstar Siddarth is having a new release; He is having a family living at Palakkad, wife and ailing daughter.
Kunchacoboban had his first hit of 2011 through this movie. Though there is less dialogues, emotional expressions and emotional scenes makes his role remarkable one. Vineeth Sreeninvasan’s role though a small one, is the main thread of the movie Traffic. Rahman has enacted his role with good mannerisms and dialogue delivery; Sreenivasan, who is there throughout the film has done a serious role fabulously. Saikumar, (a doctor by profession) as a father brings tears to your eyes many at times. Veteran Actor Jose Prakashs’ role is icing on the cake. He makes waves in the movie halls. Anoop Menon has given a cool performance as Police officer.
BGM is excellent, well blended in this movie.. The songs are well blended in the movie that we don’t feel the songs apart as in other movies. Hats off to Music director Mejo Josephs
The Story is based on the real incident that happened in Chennai on September 20th 2008, where the heart of young boy, who was declared brain dead, was transplanted to another girl who was suffering cardio myopathy. The heart has to be transplanted within four hours of harvesting. With the help of city police force this was done; and a life was saved. A sad demise day ended with a victory for humanity. Every negative thing can be made into a positive, if everything is focused with broad mind.
The movie “TRAFFIC” is excellent with perfect blend of lightning thrill and emotional scenes and all the actors has given fabulous performance to their roles and last but not lest the Director Rajesh Pillai has given us a good movie in the beginning of the year 2011.
