NAMESAKE . . . . . . . . . . .

Ahhh there after a long time . . . ..

I recently watched this amazing movie and could not keep myself from writing about it. Sometimes you feel so small and diminished before the power of art. The value of art is in emulating a sense of finding something that has been lost. As a student of cinema and as a layman I had been lost in the search for something really substantial in the past few days. Well this movie got me back to my tracks . . . the movie I am talking about is

NAMESAKE

The winners of the movie :

Mira Nair for her amazing insight into pictorial portrayal of human emotions. Amazing shots and mind boggling imagery. The movie speaks more with the montage of images and less with the dialogues.

Tabu as usual for her wonderful and splendid performance. Her sensuous and very intriguing looks, and of course for her portrayal of the character in an almost error free performance.

Irfan Khan for his undoubtedly mature performance and immaculate timing and character adaptation.

Nikhiul Sahwni : for amazing music. The bits and pieces of Hamsadhwani in the Bhansuri leave you dumbfounded and the marriage of classy music, classy imagery and super classy acting, makes this movie a must watch for all sensible cinema buffs.

I just loved the movie way too much and still carry the scenes and performances with me today in my mind. It is when you realize the movie is really good. It plays on your mind more strongly even after a couple of days pass by.
Hats off . . . to NAMESAKE!!!
