YO + "chillies" = "Chellis" ?? !!

I got back home half an hour ago. I had gone for this much hyped malayalam movie called "Red Chillies". I'm not so sure now though, 'coz the director apparently reckons it is "Red Chellis". I'm not even gonna guess where he did his schooling from.

The film opened with a lot of noise. All that the hapless guy on screen was doing was making a call. And there was this background score like the universe had just banged in to life. The main protagonist, a 50 year old veteran who looks more like a barrel than human, storms in to the screen and delivers a flurry of dialogues in english and leaves in slow motion as the title of the film comes alive on the screen. "Red Chellis".

What immediately followed could be described as "a lot of snap shots of pot bellies of what seemed like women who were definitely not hot". This seems to be an epidemic all across the Indian film scene. Film makers want to make it spicy 'coz the spicier it is, the better the box office run. But somehow they miss the point that showing an assembly of navels of every female they have on the set is not hot. It is disgusting, it is sick and most of all it suddenly makes me understand how absolutely pathetic these people are. I'm all for watchable skin show. But this was like a W.H.O. documentary on ill-fed aborigines of a famine stricken wasteland somewhere along the coast of tristan-di-cunha.

This director would easily pass for a genuine idiot and he wouldn't even need to pretend for that. The fight scenes are even more astonishing and breath-taking. Honestly, I'd sit and bear it if an average built guy is shown jumping over a car or truck. But seriously, how can you be preposterous enough to actually think the audience would be dumb enough to sit and watch and believe the 50-something actor execute moves Bruce Lee couldn't in his prime.

This post is an impulsive response to Shaji Kailas and his shit movie "Red Chellis". Again man, what were you thinking...."Red Chellis" !!
