"Modhala Sala" starts off very well, raising hopes of a good film from debutant director Purushotham.
But just an hour after the beginning, the director tries to add a lot of unnecessary elements and over-emphasises some sentimental sequences which drag the film and spoil the narration.
Story:
Karthick, the son of a rich industrialist, goes to his native village to perform the last rites of his deceased mother. He accidentally meets Deepa, the daughter of simple, honest parents who value love and sentiments more than anything else.
Karthick and Deepa decide to marry. Deepa's parents approve the alliance, but not Karthick's father.
The reasons for his opposition is explained in a flashback sequence. In the extended climax sequence, the director further tests the patience of the audience by giving too many twists to the narration.
Highlights:
1. veteran artistes Rangayana Raghu and Tara performances.
2. Venu's top class cinematography is an asset.Hari Krishna's music complements the film's emotions.
Drawbacks:
1. Malayalam actress Bhama
Analysis:
"Modhala Sala" has good technical values and neat performances from the artistes. But the film, which starts off well, loses its track half way and ends up as a disappointment.
