When and Where to Watch Neru
You can watch this emotional drama on Hotstar on 23 January 2024.
According to Jeethu Joseph’s interviews, the film is not a suspense thriller in which we are looking for the guilty. The protagonist and the film face the issue of navigating a legal system that prioritizes evidence above feelings. While the film, with Vishnu Shyam’s elevating background soundtracks, achieves a high whenever it chooses to go for an emotional outpouring, the legal side of the plot feels a little shaky. Santhy Mayadevi, who co-wrote this film with Jeethu Joseph, is an advocate, and it was strange that, despite the writer’s knowledge of how the court works, the film was frequently set in a cinematic courtroom.
Despite his age, Mohanlal has been doing back-to-back films, including ‘Neru’. Despite his limited screen time, he delivered an outstanding performance in Rajinikanth’s ‘Jailer’. However, Mohanlal’s past films, like ’12th Man’, ‘Monster’, and ‘Alone’, failed to excite audiences and box office. However, failure has had no effect on him or his appeal, and he is poised to captivate us with blockbuster flicks in the coming days. Aside from ‘Neru’, Mohanlal has appeared in a number of films, including ‘Malaikottai Vaaliban’, ‘Barroz: Guardian of D’Gama’s Treasure’, ‘Vrushubha’, ‘Ram: Part 1’, ‘L2: Empuraan’, and ‘Rambaan’.
Neru Movie Story
The film’s plot revolves around a rape case in which a blind girl named Sara, who is also a sculptor, was the victim of sexual assault by an unidentified person. Because the lone witness to this event was blind, the police had a tough time establishing their case in court, even though they were able to locate the person responsible for the crime and she was able to identify the individual by touching his face. It is through the efforts of special public prosecutor Vijayamohan, who has not taken on any trials in a considerable amount of time, that we can see that justice is being served to Sara in the film Neru.
Cast and crew of Neru
Mohanlal, Anaswara Rajan, Priyamani, Ganesh Kumar, Jagadish, and other individuals. Jeethu Joseph directs the film, which he and lawyer Santhi Mayadevi co-script. Satheesh Kurup is the cinematographer, VS Vinayak is in charge of editing, Vishnu Shyam composed the soundtrack, and Antony Perumbavoor produced the film under the brand of Aashirvad Cinemas.
Mohanlal gives an excellently understated performance that adds to the movie’s overall positive vibe. The film is essentially a coming together of a brilliant and immaculate ensemble, whether it is Santhi, Siddique, Priyamani, Jagadish, or Mathew Varghese, who plays the judge.
Although Mohanlal may be the one who carries the film, it is a coming together of several actors. Anaswara is the other star of the performance, as she flawlessly transitions from being vulnerable to being grit-filled. There is a final scene that takes place between Sara and Vijayamohan, and both performers perform it so brilliantly that it will cause a lump to form in your throat.
When it comes to highlighting specific dramatic situations, the soundtrack by Vishnu Shyam is a great complement to the movie’s pacing. The cinematographer Satheesh Kurup’s frames not only aid in the movie’s forward motion, but they also—and this is crucial—give us a sense of the characters, especially given that the majority of the scenes open with exterior views of the house.
Anaswara Rajan portrays the female lead in this film. She made her acting debut in the 2017 film ‘Udaharanam Sujatha’. She acted in roughly 13 films after that, but she gained to prominence with ‘Super Sharanya’, which was released in 2022. She has lately appeared in ‘Thugs’, ‘Pranaya Vilasam’, ‘Padmini’, and Yaariyan 2. Apart from Neru, she has appeared in the film ‘Abraham Ozler’. Interestingly, Neru was written by Jeethu Joseph and starred attorney Santhi Mayadevi, who previously acted in Drishyam 2. Vishnu Shyam has composed music for Jeethu Joseph’s films, including Kooman.
