Am yet to watch the movie Hridayam, but it has made me ponder in multiple ways. Good to see Gen. Next uniting. Greatest blessing in life is having a good friend - our friends are our greatest critic, parents may not try to correct us.
For most people in Kerala, when asked, who is your favourite pair, in the movie, it would be 'Dasanum, Vijayanum'. Mohanlal and Sreenivasan combo in the Nadodikkattu Triology, first two, created by Srinivasan and Sathyan Anthikad by Siddiqu-Lal, other being Pattanapravesham and the third - Akkare, Akkare, Akkare by Priyadarshan.
Lissi was the heartthrob of yesteryears, who's movies with Mohanlal were amazing, and ended up marrying Priyadarshan (unfortunately to be divorced after 25+ years of marriage). Priyadarshan and Mohanlal are known to be thickest of friends in the industry for years.
And here comes the gen. next. Interesting with the concept of present taking one to the past, the present generation of Children from the past sensation of the Malayalam film industry. Sreenivasan's son Vineeth, creating a film with Mohanlal's son Pranav and Priyadarshan-Lissy's daughter Kalyani.
The Nagmo song from Chitram, directed by Priyadarshan, with Lissi, enacted by Mohanlal and Sreenivas. So again, the kids reunite.
Am yet to watch the movie, but just wanted to let this go out of my head. Nepotism - All Malayali's seem to be loving. Why not? They ask. What matters is the talent. Srinivasan and Vineeth seems to be down to earth father-son with full of talent. From their interviews, it seems, the main focus, in bringing them up were having common sense, and participating in things around. For them madham (religion) is Souhrudham (Friendship) and Manshathvam (Humanity). Father-Son due, was instrumental in launching and mentoring many others as well, including Mammootty and Dulkar. Art among some others is one place where religion has no significance.
May this kind of friendship and love, be across, internal, and genuine.
