Critical Analysis

Desatanakkili Karayarilla Desatanakkili Karayarilla Scenes 7mov Video Dailymotion

A completely out of the box movie that made those with brains think and those with hearts smile. It was undoubtedly a box office hit when it released back in the mid-eighties, viewers accepting the wonderfully nuanced film for whatever they thought it stood for.

Soundtrack

The music was composed by Raveendran and lyrics was written by ONV Kurup.

Trivia

  • The Film was distributed by Dinny Films.
  • Though the film is not structured as a thriller, the mystery element in most of the story was highly acclaimed. It garnered very positive reviews from viewers as well as critics. Especially the introduction scene of Harishankar, where the character brings in a clear feeling of distrust for Sally and a very clear romantic feeling for Nirmala is notable for the air of mystery around Harishankar. Through the narrative, Padmarajan brings in a connection between Devika and Harishankar which eventually leads to the suicide of the girls. The feeling Sally has for Nirmala is also described beautifully. The willful and disobedient Sally was ready to bend her decisions and views only for Nirmala. Though Nirmala decided to go back against her wishes, Sally never left Nirmala's side and was ready to be with her for ever.
