Movie Review-;
Director Sarjun’s story lines are ambitious and far-fetched, but the effort he takes in presenting them before the audience in a convincing manner deserves praise. His last outing, Thunintha Pin from the anthology Navarasa, dealt with the emotional struggles between a police officer and a Maoist. In an unexpected turn of events, the former takes huge risks to save the latter’s life. The filmmaker had put in an effort to present an unexplored world. In Blood Money, the unbelievability factor in the story is even higher considering the fact that its plot involves politics of three countries.This film is written by Sankar Doss. He has delivered a promising content. The film has a good story line that is good enough to be converted into a film that can entertain you in every possible way. Blood Money is directed by Sarjun KM and he, as a director, has presented himself as a filmmaker who really doesn’t want to be a commercial director, but chose to explore emotions in different ways. Kaliyappan (Kishore) and his brother (played by Aravind Sundar) have been serving imprisonment at Kuwait for five years after they were found guilty in accidentally killing a woman.
Despite their family providing a huge sum as blood money, the Government of Kuwait announce death sentence for them.Their shocked family, which involves their parents and Kaliyappan’s daughter who live in a village in Tamil Nadu, seek the help of district collector and request him to do the needy. An official at the collector’s office records a video in which Kaliyappan’s mother and daughter express their plight and starts spreading it through WhatsApp.The film has all the necessary elements and ingredients to make an emotional and mystery thriller. But at the same time, it fails in keeping the audiences glued to their seats and gripped with the thrill. 90 minutes, and still the film is yet to get into the details of the mission and gear up with the actual plot. There are some scenes and situations where you find the plot being solved on its own. That isn’t so convincing at all. Meanwhile, Rachel Victor (Priya Bhavani Shankar), who joins as the sub-editor in a television channel, comes across the video and starts working on the issue as a cover story. Her boss Johnson (Subbu Panchu) and colleague (Shirish) encourage her to go ahead with the story though they had initially rejected her idea.
She also vows to save the brothers from death.However, a wrong information put out by Rachel lands the channel in trouble. After getting earful from Johnson, she decides to investigate the case thoroughly. At one point, she even expresses interest to go to Sri Lanka to get an official letter from the relative of the deceased woman to save the lives of brothers who are expected to be hanged in a few hours.Priya has done a good job as a bold journalist who can go to any extent to solve the case and save those two men. Kishore has performed well though he did not have much scope to be on the screen.
Even in the minimum number of scenes he had, she will win your hearts. Though the story has adequate scope for creating an emotional roller-coaster ride, the filmmaker chose to handle the film in a generic manner. With a duration of 90 minutes, some of the crucial moments appear rushed because of which the viewers aren’t able to empathize with the plight of the brothers and their family.The protagonist going all the way to Sri Lanka via Dhanushkodi in a boat in search of the family members of the deceased despite threat from the island nation’s coastal guard is a far-fetched idea, to say the least.
Though a journalist taking the before mentioned risks braving all the odds sound quite ambitious and dramatic on paper, the execution falters, as a result of which, the further proceedings appear unreal. The background score enhances a few emotional sequences despite the screenplay struggling to present some unconvincing ideas. The performance of Priya and Kishore as a determined journalist and a helpless father who is on the verge of getting hanged respectively stand out. However, these aren’t enough to hold the attention of the viewers.The mother-son relationship and father-daughter relationship aren’t explored in spite of having a proper scope in the story. However, Kishore and Aravind as the unfortunate brothers succeed in conveying their emotions to the viewers.
A better screenplay with more detailing on the emotions of the characters would have worked wonders for the film. Despite having a solid story, the film falls flat, thanks to the unconvincing execution and lack of detailing.Scenes in the Kuwait prison are of next level and have been shot well by Cinematographer G. Balamurugan who has done a commendable job. The music by Satish Ragunathan also feels apt to convey the mood of the story. He lifts up the climax sequence to another level. On the whole, Blood Money is a watchable thriller that has an amazing concept, but fails in a few parts due to improper execution. Blood Money is streaming on Zee5.
