Analysis
Thimiram in English means Cataract. The movie revolves around a seventy-year-old man, Sudhakaran. Despite his blindness, he poorly behaves towards the women around him. The storyline of the film is fantastic. It showed the idea of male chauvinism openly. The movie harshly comments on the gender difference prevailing in the society. The character of Sudhakaran is intensely planned and executed. The actor KK Sudhakaran has delivered a fantastic role. The unique thing about the movie is that it is full of irony. Despite Sudhakaran’s treatment towards women, the female characters in the movie are independent and matured. For instance, his daughter in law helped him when he was facing financial problems, the female worker who takes care of Sudhakaran doesn’t let him mistreat her, her wife sacrifices herself for her husband.
However, the concept of the film is brilliant. The movie is divided into three parts. While two parts are amazing, third part doesn’t match with the rest of the movie. Therefore, the execution of the script was average, it could have been better. The movie’s script is realistic and unique. Moreover, the film has a fantastic cinematography. The soundtracks are also intense and inspiring. It perfectly depicts various themes of the film.
