That Madurai and its surrounding areas have
become a favorite setting for Tamil cinema
over the past couple of years is no secret.
There have been more movies than we can
fully recall that have been set in Madurai
and violence has always been at the heart
of it all. Some of them, notably Subramaniapuram,
left an indelible mark, while the others
went unnoticed. So, which way will Goripalayam
go?
Set in the rustic village of Goripalayam,
the movie traces the story of four youngsters
who do the regular indiscretions of youth
that threatens to derail their lives. The
stills and trailers have suggested that
the movie will have its fair amount of violence
and action, which has become a bit stereotypical
of Madurai-based films in recent years.
Also, the theme of youngsters losing their
way in life because of the sense of euphoria
and power that wielding a weapon gives them
seems to be resurfacing at uneasily regular
intervals in Kollywood these days. |

In this context, it is difficult to find anything novel
in Goripalayam prior to its release. But, that it just
what we know about the movie. Director Rasu Madhuravan
has revealed very little about his film. Looking at
his debut film Mayandi Kudumbathar, we know that he
does have an eye for portraying family relations and
sentiments in an effective manner. We can definitely
look forward to some strong emotional moments on screen
in Goripalayam. That apart, the director is confident
that the presentation of a theme that does not lose
relevance is good enough to override the common occurrence
of films of the same nature.
Music for Goripalayam has been scored by Sabesh Murali.
The film does not boast of any big stars. But familiar
faces Vikranth (Vijay’s cousin) and Rama Krishna
(Kunkuma poovum Konjum Puravum fame) are part of the
lead cast while all others are new faces. Will Goripalayam
be able to replicate the run of some of its successful
‘Madurai based’ predecessors? Let’s
wait and watch. |
