Mugavari (1999) Movie Review
Mugavari – I remember watching this movie at Alankar theatre in Madurai. Yes, they were screening movies like this then. If people ask what it is to be born in 90s, I would gladly tell them that they can watch movies like mugavari and muthalvan in theatre. This was released in 2000, during which I was studying second standard. May be, people think how a seven year old boy could understand a serious matured music flick. But I remember how Sridhar puts aside his dream and goes to office. This could tell them that how much I liked this movie even as a kid.
Sridhar is such a gifted person because not everyone gets a family like Sridhar’s that supports, motivates and lives his dream; to become music director; Not only family, an audio cassette shop owner, his friend and his girlfriend Viji. So, if life gives a chance to be Sridhar, who would deny? We all know every character played best, So I don’t want to brag about their performances, because whoever acted in this film are now phenomenal actors.
When I first listened to songs which are heart of the movie, I thought it was A.R. Rahman who scored music. But it turned out to be Deva.
One thing that disturbs me now while I watched this movie in YouTube is that, at climax, they shown Sridhar becoming as the music director after several years but I don’t recall a climax like this. At climax he happens to be an office goer, whose dream burned down into ashes. He loses everything including Viji except his supporting family. That’s how I remember the end. It’s not that I don’t want him to become a music director but that was more pragmatic than this because here he even gets Viji back to his life. A scene before a climax describes why he sacrificed his love.
Anyway, Mugavari remains an address to who seeks motivation.
