Analysis
The film is a musical romance and Indian audience especially is privy to it because most of our movies are musicals. Does this follow that path or try to bring something different? The movie in its entirety is highly mid and very similar to some old Malayalam films. It doesn't have anything new to offer even the screenplay is of the old films where you can easily guess what is going to happen next. The actors have done their job well. Vineeth plays the role of the actor/master with such ease, the rest of the actors have also done a fine job. This film's most significant takeaway is its music and Mohan Sithara has done a fantastic job, Late Raveendran, Gireesh Puthencherry, and MD Rajendran Bio coming soon... >> Read More... deserves applause for their beautiful concoction of tunes and lyrics which is really the USP of this film. The cinematography is average. It's not something the audience would care about. The dance form has been shown with sincerity and detail. Aattakatha is a generic romantic musical with great performances, a fantastic soundtrack and a detailed montage of a beloved Indian dance form.
