Movies,Magic and Maniratnam


Maniratnam movies have always been able to capture the triumph of cinema on celluloid.It is this magical touch that enabled him to indulge in the art-the cinema. A few snap reviews of his movies......
Dil Se: Cinema at its criss-cross borders. Fantastic cinematography coupled with stunning music. Was visually and musically dominant. The song "Chaiyya Chaiyya" still reverberates in the indian diaspora. A letdown of the narrative style affected the screenplay of the film. Easily one of Mani's best. Dil Se opened the international market. AR Rehman scores a 10/10 for his music in this film. No wonder he's Mani's golden boy.
