🗒️Our Review:-
Hridayam which is translated as 'Heart' portrays its real meaning throughout the movie. It is a simple movie with a beautiful and meaningful taste of life inside engraved. The movie is about an engineering student's life from attending college up until his marriage. The movie starts with the main character attending an engineering college as a freshman, it shows the different phases of 4 years of college from meeting new friends, a new hostel eco-system, personal drama, mental break-downs, and how losses in his life curve his path. Also, this shows different aspects where the characters around the main character re-shape his life up and down. The main character after graduation works as an engineer but later starts to pursue his dreams of wedding photography meets his future wife and how his life's overturned meeting her and then becoming a father. In the last scene, the writing on the wall in my critical point of view seems to be that he was just a lost ship finding direction, and all the external parties from college and his experience throughout shaped his life. The acting, music, directing, cinematography, and editing were excellent, and a point to appreciate well is the attention to detail, one time I notice is the YouTube interface where Arun watches Dharshana's vlogs it showed the real-time interface of the 2010s. Personally what I love about Malayalam movies is that it gives the touch of their culture, all the food, clothes, customs, and traditions that are very pleasing to watch. Overall the movie is a huge success and could see why it got this trending wave.
