Poo by Sasi
Thread started by MrJudge on 22nd August 2008 10:42 AM
I didn't like Sasi's Sollamale but his Roja kootam was decent and wasn't interested to see his Dishyum. This time he is directing a village movie based on some short story, I hope it will come out decent.

Though I don't like Srikanth
the new girl looks good (another muththazagu?) and the movie stills look promising.

I liked Dishyum too & it had good songs. But Roja kootam is a waste movie.
So far he has done just 3 films in 10 yrs.

I didn't like the movie because of Livingston, he looked too old for that character and also the climax was just stupid, IMO. Originally Posted by raaja_rasigan

Incidentally he had good scripts and directors but he never utilized them. A few being his rojakootam, parthiban kanavu and kana kandein. He was taken aside in all these movies by the respective supporting actors bhumika, sneha and prithviraj.

Poo: Lives in dark that make lights of joy
September12, 2008
The audio release function of the movie Poo was held today at Sathyam Cineplex in the presence of a host of film personalities. Being co-produced by Moser Baer and director Sasi (Dishyum fame), Poo tells the story of thousands of children whose lives, dreams and rights to a good childhood are lost in the dark factories of Sivakasi, making crackers. Poo will star Srikanth, the rest of the cast consists of new faces
.
At the function, the audio CD was released and a special screening of three songs was held for the guests. Out of these, two were highly appreciated by the audience. ‘Choo Choo Maari’ was reminiscent of games children play and was a refreshing song to listen to. It gives out the vibes of a hit and is likely to be very popular as a ring tone in the near future. The other song, ‘Aavaram Poo’, penned by Na. Muthukumar and picturised on debutante heroine Parvathi was also special. The song attempts to take the story forward along with it and the heroine’s performance in the song suggests that we can expect a noteworthy debut. Also, debut composer S.S.Kumaran has done a job that will make people expect more out of him in future. The visuals that are pleasing to the eye have been caught on camera by yet another debutante Muthaiah.
Celebrities present at the function include directors Balu Mahendra, Ameer, Vasanth, Balaji Shakthivel, Subramaniam Siva, Lingusaamy, and actors Jeeva and Jeyam Ravi. The function was also attended by Producer’s Council Secretary LMM Muralidaran. Dhananjayan from Moser Baer delivered the welcome address and director Sasi thanked everyone present for their support.

'Poo' is a movie for heart and soul: Sasi
IndiaGlitz [Wednesday, September 24, 2008]
Director Sasi is busy giving his best to shape up ‘Poo’. The movie starring Srikanth and Malluwood girl Parvathy, produced by Moserbaer, is fast nearing completion.
In a quick chat, Sasi, who left his indelible mark in Tamil cinema with movies like ‘Rojakootam’, ‘Sollamale’ and ‘Dishoom’, says, 'Poo is inspired by writer Subha Tamilselvan's Veyyilodu Poi. It captures the heart and soul of the rustic life in a rural village in Rajapalayam. ‘Poo’ will bring the feeling of reading the novel'.
On his star cast, Sasi says, 'I share a good rapport with Srikanth since his ‘Rojakootam’ days. I still wonder what is preventing the actor from making it big on cinema. Parvathi has a great passion for cinema. Her dedication to excel in the role was amazing'.
On a big gap after ‘Dishoom’, Sasi says, 'I am slow to start with. Once I conceive a storyline, I start to work with utmost sincerity. Close on the heels of completing ‘Poo’, I would start a movie which would be a commercial entertainer loaded with action all through'.

'Poo' gets a clean U
IndiaGlitz [Saturday, November 22, 2008]
'Poo' directed by Sasi and produced by Moser Baer in association with Nesagee Cinemas will be releasing on the 28th of November. The Censor Board of Film Certification has cleared the film with the tag U (for Universal audiences).
The film shot in a rustic background stars Srikanth and Parvathy. Based on the short story 'Veyyilodu Poi', the film is expected to contain a heart warming story. Sasi who has churned out 'Sollamale', Rojakootam' and 'Dishyum' earlier, has a penchant for realistic human emotions.
Poo's music album by S. S. Kumaran has already become popular with its mellifluous tunes oozing with the 'native feel'.
'Poo' sure has all the makings of a healthy entertainer with abundance of realism packed in it. Something audiences would love.

Poo is poetic – Movie Review
Starring: Srikanth, Parvathi
Direction: Sasi
Music: S S Kumaran
Production: Moserbaer, Nesagee Cinema
“Simplicity is the glory of expression,” said Walt Whitman, and Poo may be one of the best elucidators of this quote. It is beautiful without being complicated, moving without being disturbing and mellow without being mushy. Poo is about love, relations, dreams and sacrifices.
It is difficult to reveal any aspect of the plot of the movie because that might amount to disservice to a carefully crafted work of art. This is not to say that Poo is art-house cinema, it instead treats cinema at a different level where there is neither an antagonist nor a protagonist and only the inscrutable ways of destiny determine the fate of characters who remain so true to the story without even an element of cinematic liberty being thrown in. It seems to be a true interpretation of what Shakespeare so famously said, “All the world’s a stage and all men and women are the players.”
Poo is set in the rustic surroundings of Rajapalayam where life is simple and slow and ambitions are limited. It tells the story of two young children, a boy and a girl, their families and their dreams in life. What happens when dreams clash? Someone has to let go of their dream for the others to realize theirs’. It is one person’s love and affection for the other that makes them sacrifice hoping sincerely that the object of their love will have a better life sharing someone else’s dream. It is also “love” that makes people give up their own dreams and believe in someone
else, trusting them with their life. But when sacrifices go in vain and life of the loved one looks far from the bed of roses that had been envisaged, then it is a kind of helplessness that engulfs the mind and one is left to live only in sorrow, grieving the dream that was never to be.
Poo is a movie that has given some budding actors a wonderful opportunity to set foot in the industry and they have done it with élan. Parvathy, the debut heroine has done a marvelous job, not at all showing any signs of inexperience. She excels in all kinds of expressions and an interesting thing is that at times one can detect traces of Padmapriya. Parvathy will definitely be a strong contender for the best debut award this year. Srikanth is on screen after a long time and appears in a role that is not the regular hero type. First, congrats to him for making the choice. He is adequate without being excellent, fitting neatly into the character. But the one who steals the show is the actor who plays Srikanth’s father, he is splendid and one to look out for in similar roles in future. The Rajapalayam accent has been adapted to near perfection throughout the movie. Poo is devoid of any commercial element. There are a few scenes here and there with situational humor that do not fail to amuse. The emotional scenes are the best. Made to near perfection, they will move even the most passive viewer close to tears, especially the climatic scenes. The movie has content that is enough just for a short story and has been narrated fluently on screen.
Then there are stars behind the camera. Cinematographer P.G. Muthiah has done a wonderful job, translating all the rural charm onto screen. Veerasamar has matched the camera with his art. One is left wondering whether the huts are sets or real ones. Debutant composer S.S. Kumaran deserves accolades for his score and re-recording. Three songs, Maman, Aavaram Poo and Choo Choo Maari stand out as excellent compositions. But the one man who deserves an ovation here is director Sasi. This must be his best work to date. Handling the story, screenplay, dialogue and direction, he has given a product that will please all true lovers of cinema. He must also be credited with extracting moving performances from the cast.
Overall, Poo is like a beautiful poem. Poetry is not everyone’s cup of tea and one is not sure how many will be able to appreciate this subtly narrated story of dreams and sacrifices. It is a sincere wish that Poo does well, Tamil cinema will be better off with the success of a movie like Poo. But one finds it hard to see how the movie will achieve commercial success, given its simple yet beautiful narration.
As the saying goes, “Simplicity is nature’s first step and the last of art.”
Verdict - Poo – Poetic

Poo
By Moviebuzz
What strikes you most after watching Poo is the simplicity of the story with characters and their motivations intricately etched out by the director. It is a portrait of life in a small village and an honest exploration of human emotions. With Poo, director Sasi proves that a simple plot with interesting characters is all it takes to engage an audience. It is a placid film which is not plot-driven but centred on the emotional journey of its characters.
The film belongs to debutant Parvathy, she holds the film together and is mesmeric. Sasi's script is an adaptation of writer Tamil Chelvan's short story Veyilodu Poy. He succeeds largely because he has been more or less faithful to the original, other than using cinematic liberties like songs.
The story is set in a village somewhere between Rajapalayam and Sivakasi in south Tamilnadu. It is all about the selfless deep love and admiration that Mari (Parvathy) develops for her cousin Thankaras (Srikanth) from childhood. Mari is a bold village girl whose world revolves around her beloved Thankaras .While at school, she does not hesitate to tell her teacher who questions all kids on what their ambition in life is, and that for her, it is to "be the wife of Thankaras"!
Her best friend and conscience keeper is Cheeni (Inbanila), a practical girl who works with her at the fireworks factory. She urges Mari to express her love for Thankaras who is now an Engineer, thanks to the hard work of his father Penakaran (Ramu) a bullock cart driver. The trouble with Mari and her dilemma is that she is obsessed by her cousin and goes great lengths to get across to him but is unable to express her deep love for him. Her inability to open her heart out at the same time hopelessly in love with him leads inevitably to an emotional turbulence.
The humour in the film is not slapstick nor a separate comedy track, but part of the narration. The best examples are the scenes showing why Srikanth’s father decides to buy him a cell phone, the tea-shop owner who is fed up of people in the village who wants to drink tea on credit and the foreman at the cracker factory.
The high point of the film is its characterizations and performances. Much of Sasi's creativity lies in his casting, which is perfect. Parvathy has lived in the role of Mari and takes your breath away as she effortlessly delivers such a difficult role so convincingly on her debut in Tamil. She is consistently credible and lifelike and absolutely riveting.
Srikanth does not have a lengthy role but as Thankaras, silent and dependable he is first class. All the supporting cast are extraordinary like Inbanila who plays Mari's best friend, she invests such sincerity into her role that makes the character a real flesh and blood person by underplaying and subtlety. Ramu the guy who plays Srikanth's father in the film is credible and looks real. The entire supporting cast (all are first-timers) is top class.
Technically, the film is a treat with breathtaking cinematography and correct use of colours (without any DI) by P.G Muthiah in some fresh village locations. S.S Kumaran's music has a refreshing tinge to it, his background score is terrific. On the downside the film could have easily done with fewer songs, which at times is distracting.
But on the whole the movie is a beautiful, complete, moving experience with a nice message. It is a simple love story, a bittersweet tale of human frailties, a small film with a very big heart. Well acted and directed, the film is watchable as gems like these are hard to find these days.
. Verdict: Very Good

From Indiaglitz
"On the whole the film is such a refreshing change from the regular hullabaloo of so-called commercial masala entertainment. 'Poo' would definitely join the ranks of 'Kadhal', 'Azhagi', 'Subramaniapuram' and the like which went on to rake in big money."

aahaa... Padam paarkanum pola irukkae. Interesting to see how they have portrayed Sivakasi, Rajapalayam and the surrounding areas. Most of the guys portraying these areas mix the madurai culture and confuse it as a whole. I am keen to see how they are shown in this film.பூ - திரைவிமர்சனம்
மனிதனின் வாழ்கையில் ஓவ்வொருவருக்கும் ஓரு கனவுகள், கற்பனைகள், நிஜ வாழ்கையில் ஓவ்வொருவரும் அவர்தம் கனவுகளை, கற்பனைகளை விட்டு கொடுத்துதான் வாழ்ந்து கொண்டிருக்கிறார்கள். அப்படி மற்றவருக்காக விட்டு கொடுத்து அதனால் அவர் நன்றாய் இருப்பார் என்று நம்பி செய்த தியாகம் வீணாகும் போது வரும் துக்கம் மிகப் பெரிய சோகம். அந்த சோகம் காதலாய் இருந்தால்..? அந்த சோகத்தை இவ்வளவு எளிமையாய், ஒரு கிராமத்து காதல் கதையை வில்லன் இல்லாமல்,குத்துபாட்டு இல்லாமல்,இரட்டை அர்த்த வசனங்கள் இல்லாமல், கவிதையாய் தர முயன்றிருக்கிறார் இயக்குனர் சசி.
தமிழ்செல்வனின் “வெயிலோடு போய்” என்கிற சிறுகதையை திரைகதையாக்கி இருக்கிறார். முழுக்க, முழுக்க, கதாநாயகியை சுற்றியே வரும் கதை. அறிமுக நாயகி பார்வதிக்கு முதல் படமே பேர் சொல்லும் படமாய் அமைந்திருக்கிறது. மாரியம்மாவாகவே வாழ்ந்திருக்கிறார். சந்தோஷம், கோபம், துக்கம், காதல், ஏக்கம், பிரிவு, என்று உணர்வுகளின் களஞ்சியமாய் மின்னுகிறார். புதியவர் என்று சொன்னால் நம்பமுடியாது.
கதையின் நாயகன் தங்கராசுவாய் ஸ்ரீகாந்த். ஆம் கதையின் நாயகன் தான். முதலில் இந்த மாதிரியான ஹீரோயின் ஓரியண்டட் படத்தில் நடித்தற்கே அவரை பாராட்ட வேண்டும். சில காட்சிகளே வந்தாலும் குறை சொல்ல முடியாது.
தங்கராசுவின் அப்பாவாக வரும் பேனாகாரன். கிராமத்தில் உழைத்து, உழைத்து தேயும் தகப்பன்களை கண் முன்னே காட்டுகிறார். மிக இயல்பான நடிப்பு. அவருடய மனைவியாய் எழுத்தாளர் பாரததேவி வருகிறார்.
தென் தமிழ்நாட்டின் சிவகாசி, ராஜபாளையத்தில் நடைபெறும் கதையில், அந்த ஊரின் இயல்பு தன்மை மாறாமல் நேட்டிவிட்டியோடு, நம் கண் முன்னே நிறுத்துகிறார் ஒளிப்பதிவாளர் பி.சி.முத்தையா. அந்த அகண்ட செம்மண் வெட்டவெளியும் அதில் இரண்டே இரண்டு பனைமரமும், தியேட்டரில் பாருங்கள் அந்த கந்தக பூமியின் தகிப்பு உங்களுக்கு புரியும்.
புதிய இசையமைப்பாளர் எஸ்.எஸ்.குமரனின் இசை ஏற்கனவே ஹிட். அதிலும் சுத்ததன்யாசியில் என்று நினைக்கிறேன் அந்த “ஆவாரம்பூ” பாடல் ரொம்ப நாளுக்கு ரீங்காரமிடும்.
படத்தில் வரும் ஓவ்வொரு காட்சியிலும் இயக்குனரின் உழைப்பு தெரிகிறது. சிறுகதையை கொஞ்சமும் மாற்றாமல், பாடல் காட்சிகளை தவிர அதை ஓட்டியே திரைக்கதை அமைத்திருப்பதால், வழக்கமான சினிமாதனமான காட்சிகள் இல்லாமல், யதார்தமாய் காட்சிகளை அமைத்திருக்கிறார். உதாரணமாய் மாரி, தங்கராசுவை எவ்வளவு அழுத்தமாய் மனதில் கொண்டிருக்கிறார் என்பதை அவர் பள்ளிகூடத்தில் வாத்தியார் “நீ பெரியவளானதும் என்ன செய்ய போறே”ன்னு கேட்டதும் “நான் தங்கராசுக்கு பொண்டாட்டியாக போறேன் சார்” என்று சொல்லும் ஓரு காட்சியே போதும். ஆனால் இவருக்கு இவ்வளவு அழுத்தமாய் காட்சி அமைத்துவிட்டு, அவரின் காதலை தங்கராசு வேறு ஓருவர் சொல்லித்தான் உணர்வதென்பது அவ்வளவு ஆழமாய் இல்லை. அதுவும் ஓரே பாடலில் அவர் மாரியின் காதலை உணர்வதும், வேறு ஆளாய் இருந்தால் பரவாயில்லை, சொந்த அத்தை மகனிடம் பேசுவதற்கு எதற்கு அவ்வளவு எக்ஸைட்மெண்ட்.. தயக்கம்? ஏதோ ஓரு காட்சியில், இரண்டு காட்சியில் இருந்தால் பரவாயில்லை, படம் முழுக்க, அதே உணர்வில் நகர்வதால், பார்க்கும் நம்மை இம்சை பண்ணுகிறார் இயக்குனர். அதிலும் மாரியின் காதலை தங்கராசு உணர்ந்தும் அவரை வேண்டாம் என்னும் காரணம் மருத்துவ ரீதியாய் சரியாக இருந்தாலும், அதை மாரியிடம் சொல்லி உணர்த்தியிருந்தால் பரவாயில்லை. ஏதோ திடீரென்று சம்மந்தமில்லாமல் மன்னிப்பு கேட்டான் என்று சொல்வது ஒட்டும்படியாய் இல்லை.
அது மட்டுமில்லாமல் படத்தின் ஆரம்ப காட்சியில் தன் புது கணவனுடன் சரச சல்லாபங்கள் புரிந்து விட்டு, தன் முன்னால் காதலனை பார்க்க வருவது, ஆரம்பத்தில் எதிர்பார்பை ஏற்படுத்தினாலும், எதை நோக்கி போகும் என்பதில் தெரிந்து விடுவதால் படம் முழுக்க ஓரு தொய்வு இருக்கத்தான் செய்கிறது. க்ளைமாக்ஸில் தங்கராசுவின் அப்பா மாரியிடம் “ உனக்கு ஓரு கனவு இருந்திச்சு.. எனக்கு ஓரு கனவு இருந்திச்சு.. அது போல அந்த பொண்ணுக்கு ஓரு கனவு இருந்திருக்கறது தெரியாம இருந்துட்டோம்ன்னு சொல்லி மன்னிப்பு கேட்டு நிற்பதெல்லாம் சினிமா. நல்ல கதை அதை சுருக்கமாய் சொல்லியிருந்தால் தமிழ் சினிமாவில் மிகப் பெரிய் அடையாளமாய் வந்திருக்க வேண்டிய படம். இருந்தாலும் மிக நுணுக்கமாய் மனித உணர்வுகளை படம் பிடித்து காட்ட முயற்சித்திருக்கும் சசியை பாராட்ட வேண்டும்
பூவில் குறைகள் இருந்தாலும்,கவிதையாய் ஓரு படத்தை தர முயற்சித்திருக்கிறார்கள். ஆனால் கவிதை எல்லாருக்கும் பிடிப்பதுமில்லை, புரிவதுமில்லை. அப்படி மக்களுக்கு பிடித்தும், புரிந்தும் விட்டால் அதை விட சந்தோஷம் வேறேதுமில்லை. பார்போம் பூ மலருமா..? மலராதா?? என்று.
Few films that projected these areas well are "Karuvelam pookkal" and Veyyil ( to a certain extent. )
Judge,
How is the film ?

This is Director Sasi's first serious film making attempt, so you will not be disappointed if don't expect kAthal/azhagi here. If you have patience and want to see something different from the regular flicks, you can give it a shot. I would rate it sligthly-above-average only.

Realistic storyline impresses
Film review: Poo
Cast: Srikanth, Parvathy, Inbanila, Ramu
Director: Sasi
Rating: * * 1/2
Adapted from Tamizh Selvan’s novel Velayodu Poi, Poo from director Sasi is a narration of a simple story with strong characterisation. When masala films are the order of the day, the director should be lauded for the realistic script without any frills, which narrates the story convincingly. Poo revolves around Mari (Parvathy), a bold village girl from a poor background and the selfless love she has for her cousin Thangarasu (Srikanth).
Set in the rustic backdrop of Rajapalayam, the film opens with Mari, a happily married girl, coming to her village for a temple festival. A flashback reveals the strong love that Mari has for her relative Thangarasu right from childhood. While at school when the teacher asks everyone about their future ambition, Mari proudly says that she would be the wife of Thangarasu. However, a grown-up Mari, who works in a firework factory, keeps her love close to her heart. On the other hand, Thangarasu’s father Penakarar (Ramu), a bullock-cart driver, struggles to earn his livelihood and manages to send his son to an engineering college.
Mari’s close friend Cheeni (Inbanila) advises her to reveal her love for Thangarasu. Mari makes futile attempts to express her love and eventually ends up in emotional turmoil. Circumstances force Thangarasu to marry a rich girl (Sarita Yadhav), daughter of a mill owner. Cut to present, Mari who rushes to see Thangarasu, returns shattered.
The major success of the movie is the apt casting of each and every character by director Sasi. Debutant Parvathy as Mari has lived the role and given a brilliant performance. Be it the delight at seeing her beloved or the inability to express her love or the horror at the sight of her beloved’s pitiable life towards the climax, Parvathy simply excels at expressing emotions. It is an award winning performance from her. The girl who plays young Mari is equally impressive.
Srikanth, who has played a rural youth for the first time, though not in a lengthy role, has performed well. His silence speaks volumes. Inbanila as Mari’s friend has a parallel role and impresses with her realistic portrayal. The other supporting cast including Ramu, Janaki (Mari’s mother), Veera Samar, the tea-shop owner stand out with their natural portrayals. Muthiah’s lens has beautifully captured the essence of the story, frame by frame, and is an absolute visual treat. Newcomer Kumaran’s music is yet another major plus. His background score, especially, needs special mention. On the whole, Poo produced by Nesagee Cinemas and presented by Moserbaer is a film that is worth watching.

Poo: A visual bouquet
Poo’, director Sasi’s cinematic adaptation of S.Tamil Selvan’s classic short story ‘Veyilodu Poy’, is a refreshing experience.
‘Poo’, set in the rustic surroundings of Rajapalayam, revolves around a boy and a girl. It also speaks about their families and their dreams. The girl Mari is very much fond of the boy Thangarasu right from the childhood. The father of the boy, who is a hard worker and a poor man, has a dream to bring up his boy as an engineer to lead a decent life.
Later the boy is sent to Chennai to study engineering and the girl gets a job in the local fireworks factory. Mari’s love for Thangarasu grows stronger with the time. Her love is very simple and natural just like a flower. She is ready to undergo any ordeal for the sake of his beloved Thangarasu.
Mari tries to convey her deep love to Thangarasu but somehow fails to do so. But she is confident that Thangarasu would never ditch her. Thangarasu, though he understands Mari’s love, could not reciprocate her feelings, as he has to make his hard working father happy by marrying a girl of his choice to come up in life. He gives up his love to save his father from ruining himself.
This decision leaves Mari shattered but her pure love doesn’t allow her to be sad. She seeks happiness, finding solace in the thought that if Thangarasu is happy, she too is happy. She swallows her sadness for the sake of her lover’s well being. But life has other plans because of which Mari finds herself in a deeper sorrow.
The strength of the movie is its simplicity and poetic portrayal. Director Sasi has successfully told the story without resorting to any kind of gimmicks. He has come out with a credible and realistic screenplay. He has also etched out the characters quite well, paying adequate attention to insignificant characters too. The character of Thangarasu’s father looks like one out of a well-written literary work.
Sasi’s visual sense is amazing. A particular shot that captures together the dejected Mari shedding tears sitting inside the semi dark room and her mother shouting at his brother (who’s standing outside) for his betrayal deserves mention. The scene in which Mari meets her goat after a long time is poetic. The childhood incidents and Mari’s friendship with another girl are well portrayed.
The way the director has used the landscape with the help of the cinematographer P.G.Muthiah is noteworthy. Sasi, who has penned some sharp, sensitive, and realistic dialogues, makes effective use of silence too.
Parvathy, a new entrant to Tamil, is a revelation. She has been given a meaty role she handles it with élan. Her varied expressions, her dialogue delivery and body language are quite commendable. The performance is sure to receive a few awards.
Srikanth deserves appreciation for accepting to act in a heroine-oriented movie. He adds value to the role by underplaying his role and willingly playing second fiddle to the protagonist.
Cinematographer P.G.Muthiah has brought the rural charm onto screen with natural colours and aesthetically-shot sequences. Veerasamar’s art work has ably complemented the efforts of the camera and the director. Debutant composer S.S.Kumaran deserves accolades for his background score. The songs “Aavaram Poo…”and “Choo Choo Maari…”stand out.
On the flip side, the second half drags a bit and the director could have done away with a couple of songs including the one that takes place in the marriage house. The suicide drama of Mari is not convincing and the comical scenes happening in the tea shop turn out to be redundant after a point.
Despite these flaws, one can easily rank the film among the finest in contemporary Tamil mainstream movies. No less than poetry on celluloid.

Poo review
The story is about a man who married a wealthy woman due to compulsions, chews his young golden days.
Srikanth, when he was little boy in the village, had a girl friend in the name Maari - Parvathy. The film details about how Srikanth and Parvathy enjoyed their village life during young age and then moves to show how Parvathy lives after Srikanth - who became an engineer got married to another wealthy woman.
Music and the lyrics for the song 'Maari Maari' is good but sings similar to that of famous POP song 'Varaan Varaan Poochaandi'.
Cinematography is good and is a good job done by Muthiah.
The movie is worth watching for one time, as it will help you bring a flashback about your own young day favourite.

பூ விமர்சனம்
பதினெட்டு வயசு காதலும், பருவம் கொள்ளாத சங்கோஜமும் கொண்ட ஒருத்தி, தனது மாமன் மேல் வைத்திருக்கும் கொள்ளாத காதல்தான் பூ. இதற்கு முன்பு வந்த காதல் படங்களையெல்லாம் 'ப்பூ' என்று ஊதித்தள்ளுகிறது இந்த பூ! இன்னொருவரை திருமணம் செய்து கொண்டு புகுந்த வீட்டுக்கு போய்விட்டால், அதுவரை மனசில் வைத்திருந்த காதல் போய்விடுமா? இந்த மெல்லிய கேள்வியை சுத்தியல் வேகத்தோடு இறக்கி படத்தை முடிக்கிறார் சசி.
தியேட்டரை விட்டு வெளியே வந்த பின்னும் கூடவே வருகிறார்கள் மாரியும், தங்கராசும், கிடையில் சிக்கிக் கொண்ட அந்த கருப்பு ஆட்டிக்குட்டியும், இரட்டை பனை மரங்களும் கூட!
பாவாடை சட்டை காலத்திலிருந்தே மாமன் தங்கராசு மேல் காதலாய் திரிகிறாள் மாரி. எந்தளவுக்கு? நீ படிச்சு என்னவாக போறே? என்ற வாத்தியாரின் கேள்விக்கு தங்கராசுவுக்கு பொண்டாட்டி ஆகப் போறேன் என்று பதில் சொல்கிற அளவுக்கு! (இதே கேள்விக்கு அநேக பெண் பிள்ளைகள் பதில் சொல்லாமல் தவிக்கிற இடங்களில் டைரக்டரின் சமூகக்கவலை எட்டிப்பார்க்கிறது)
“பட்டணத்தில் படிக்கும் உன் மாமன் படிக்காத உன்னையா கட்டிக்குவான்?” என்று யதார்த்தமாக கேட்கும் சினேகிதியின் நெற்றியை கல்லால் பதம் பார்க்கிற அளவுக்கு தங்கராசு மீது காதல் வைத்திருக்கும் மாரி, அவனை வேறொருத்திக்கு தாரை வார்க்கிற மாதிரி அமைகிறது வாழ்க்கை. இவளும் வேறொருவனை மணந்து கொண்டு போய்விட, அதுவரை அவள் மாமன் மேல் கொண்டிருந்த காதல் என்னவாயிற்று? இதுதான் முடிவு.
மாறி மாறி பாராட்டிக் கொண்டேயிருக்கலாம் மாரியாக நடித்திருக்கும் புதுமுகம் பார்வதியை. சகல உணர்ச்சிகளும் முகத்தில் தாண்டவம் ஆடுகிறது. மத்தாப்பூ நகரத்தில் மாரிப் பூவாக மலர்ந்திருக்கும் இவருக்கு அவார்டு என்ன, அதற்கு மேல் ஏதாவது இருந்தாலும் கொடுத்து கௌரவிக்கலாம்.
தோழியை கல்லால் அடித்துவிட்டு அம்மாவிடம் விளக்குமாறு அடி வாங்குவது, மாமனின் கல்யாணத்துக்கு போக மாட்டேன் என்று அடம்பிடிக்கும் குடும்பத்தினரை சம்மதிக்க வைக்க தூக்கு கயிற்றில் தொங்க முயல்வது, மாமனை கவர தனது செல்ல ஆட்டுக்குட்டியை விற்றுவிட்டு அந்த பணத்தில் சுடிதார் வாங்குவது, இப்படி படம் முழுக்க பார்வதி ராஜ்ஜியம். விட்டால் 16 ரீலையும் எழுத வேண்டியிருக்கும். அட, பார்வதிதான் இப்படி கவர்கிறார் என்றால், சிறுவயது மாரியாக நடித்திருக்கும் அந்த சிறுமியின் முகத்தில் கூட யதார்த்தம் கரை புரண்டு ஓடுகிறது.
படம் முழுக்க 'பார்வதி பதே நமஹ'தான் என்று தெரிந்தே நடிக்க ஒப்புக்கொண்ட ஸ்ரீகாந்தையும் பாராட்டியே ஆக வேண்டும். நல்லவேளையாக இவரது நடிப்புத் திறமைக்கும் வாய்ப்பு கொடுத்திருக்கிறார் சசி. மனம் கவர்ந்த மாரிக்கு முன்பாகவே மனைவியிடம் வசைபடும் ஸ்ரீ, அது மாரிக்கு தெரிந்துவிடக் கூடாதே என்று தவிக்கும்போது அப்ளாஸ்...
உதிரிப்பூக்கள் ஒவ்வொன்றாக தேர்ந்தெடுத்து பூ அலங்காரம் செய்திருக்கிறார் சசி. வீட்டிற்கு வரும் தங்கராசுவுக்கு தோசை மீது ரகசிய முத்தம் வைத்து கொடுக்கிறாரே பார்வதி, இனிப்பு! சரவெடி போனில் தங்கராசுவிடம் மாரி பேசும் கற்பனை, பட்டாசுக் கவிதை! அதுமட்டுமா? தங்கராசுவிடம் மன்னிப்பு கேள் என்று போர்மேனை அடித்து துவைக்கும் மாரி, தங்கராசுவாக நினைத்து காட்டுவது ஒரு பனைமரத்தை. இப்படி படம் முழுக்க கொட்டிக்கிடக்கிற ஹைக்கூக்கள் ஏராளம்...
மாரியின் அண்ணனாகவும் நடித்திருக்கிறார் ஆர்ட் டைரக்டர் வீரசமர். கதையின் பயணத்தில் இவரது கேரக்டர் அழகென்றால், அதைவிட அழகு இவரது ஆர்ட் வொர்க். குறிப்பாக பாடல் காட்சியன்றில் வரும் அந்த மரக்குதிரைகள். பேனாக்காரராக வரும் அந்த பெரிசு ரசிகர்கள் மனசில் அழியாத ஆட்டோகிராப் போடுகிறார்.
காமெடிக்காட்சிகள் குறைவுதான். வைக்கப்பட்ட ஒன்றிரண்டு டீக்கடை காட்சிகளிலும் ஆயாசம். ஆனாலும் அந்த ஆடுமேய்க்கும் சிறுவனின் செல்போன் காமெடி கலகல. முத்தையாவின் ஒளிப்பதிவு, பல வருடங்களுக்கு பிறகு புத்துணர்ச்சி தருகிற குமாரின் இசை, நிதான கட்டிங் கொடுத்திருக்கும் எடிட்டர் இப்படி எல்லாரும் ஒன்று சேர்ந்து,
'பூ-மாரி' பொழிந்திருக்கிறார்கள்!

பார்வதிக்கு தேசிய விருதா? தடுக்கும் டப்பிங் குரல்...
பூ படத்தில் அமர்க்களமாக நடித்திருக்கிறார் பார்வதி. கோடம்பாகத்தின் புது வரவுகளில் பார்வதியின் வரவு அழகான கோலம்! இப்படியெல்லாம் முன்னணி இயக்குனர்களின் பாராட்டுக்களை அள்ளிக் கொண்டு போனவருக்கு ஒரே ஒரு வருத்தம். இந்த படத்திற்காக இவருக்கு தேசிய விருது கொடுக்க நினைத்தாலும், விதிமுறைகள் விடாது போலிருக்கிறது.
சொந்தக்குரலில் பேசியிருந்தால் மட்டுமே விருது கிடைக்கும். இப்படத்தில் சொந்தக்குரலில் பேசியிருக்கிறாரா பார்வதி? இந்த கதையை உருவாக்கும் போதே, இதற்கு விருது நிச்சயம் என்று நினைத்திருப்பார் போலிருக்கிறது சசி. பார்வதியே டப்பிங் பேச வேண்டும் என்று விரும்பினாராம். இதற்கான முயற்சியும் நடந்தது. ஆனால், மலையாள நடிகைகள் தாமே டப்பிங் பேசும்போது எப்படியிருக்கும் என்பதற்கு நவ்யா நாயர், பாவனா, கோபிகா போன்றவர்களே முன்னுதாரணம். இதே நிலைதான் பார்வதி பேசும்போதும் நடந்ததாம்.
இந்த உண்மைகள் தெரியாமல் பத்திரிகையாளர் காட்சியில் பேசிய ஸ்ரீகாந்த், பார்வதி இந்த படத்திலே சொந்தக் குரலில் பேசியிருக்காங்க என்றார். விசாரித்தால் இதில் உண்மை இல்லையாம். பார்வதிக்கு குரல் கொடுத்திருப்பவர் டப்பிங் கலை
ஞி மகா என்பவராம். ஆனாலும், இப்படத்திற்காவது விருது கிடைக்கும் என்று நம்பிக் கொண்டிருக்கிறார் சசி.

No comedians but movie has plenty of funny moments.
Songs were average, but the BGM was good.

Though the story portrays how sad it will be to see the loved one suffering, it also depicts how bad our family system and society are in a very subtle way. I don't know whether he wrote it consciously or not but that's happening in real life.
They should have retained the title 'vEyilOdu pOi' intead of 'poo'.

POO - Factually fragrant
Making a movie out a famous novel is often a difficult path to tread. Very few adaptations have been successfully made into films like Jeyakanthan's 'Yaarukkaga Azhudhan' and 'Silar Nerangalil Sila Maninardhal'. Director Sasi has boldly attempted to make a feature film out of the short story titled 'Veyilodu Poi', written by S. Tamil Selvan.
Sasi has woven a soft romantic story in an interesting manner with even small sequences given great care. The comic act by the boy who manages his cattle, events that occur in School, the non-vocal manner in which Mari expresses her mental agony are all nicely filmed.
Newcomer Parvathy Menon delivers an unbelievable performance in her very first film itself. The film belongs to her: it's Parvathy all the way. The way she emotes in various circumstances speaks volumes about her vast acting potential. It won't be surprising at all if Parvathy manages to win an award or two for her performance in the film.
Srikanth should be applauded for agreeing to portray a character in a film which is basically a heroine-oriented one. Srikanth delivers a subdued performance, which was what the director probably expected of him.
Debutant music director Kumaran has involved himself fully in the proceedings and has scored at least a couple of hummable numbers besides making a neat work of background score. The 'Chuchu mari' song deserves special mention. Cinematography by P.G. Muthiah is a major plus point to the film. The way the drought situation and other scenic places in the villages captured is quite admirable.
Dialogues by Sasi are practical and the screenplay is reasonably a fast-paced one. For those who would like to have some quality-film viewing instead of sheer masala entertainers, 'Poo' is a not-to-be-missed film!
Poo - Worthy all the way!

This actress may miss the awards!
Parvathy’s astounding performance in the film Poo has been receiving rave reviews from the fans as well as the critics. In fact most of the audiences who watched the film vouch that Parvathy deserves an award for her performance. But what they fail to understand is that she had not lent her voice for the film. According to Poo’s director Sasi, he wanted Parvathy to dub for the film but her strong Malayalam accent forbade him to use her voice.
It is a well known rule that all the actors considered for the National award must have dubbed for the film. Since Parvathy’s voice was not used for Poo she may miss the coveted award.

பூ - விமர்சனம்
மினி ஸ்கர்ட்டில் நாயகனை மயக்காமல், வில்லனை உதைக்காமல் நாயகி படம் நெடுக வரும் தமிழ் திரைப்படம் இதுவாக*த்தான் இருக்கும். சசிக்கு வந்தனம் அனந்த கோடி.
மா*ரிக்கு சின்ன வயது முதல் மாமன் தங்கராசு மீது ப்*ரியம். வளர்ந்து மாமனை கட்டிக்கப் போறேன் என்று வாத்தியார்முன் சொல்லும் அளவுக்கு காதல். இன்*ஜினிய*ரிங் படிக்கச் செல்லும் மாமன் சந்தர்ப்பவசத்தால் வேறொரு பெண்ணை திருமணம் செய்ய நேர்கிறது. திருமணம் ஆன பிறகு மா*ரியின் மாமன் மீதான காதல் என்னானது? நெஞ்சை பிழிய வைத்து ப்*ரியாவிடை தருகிறார், சசி.
அரும்பாகி மொட்டாகி பூவாகும் மா*ரியின் காதலை சரம்சரமாக தொடுத்திருக்கிறார் இயக்குனர். தங்கராசுவின் உயரத்தை கணக்கிட ஃபோர்மேனின் அருகில் நின்று மா*ரி அளவெடுக்கும் காட்சியில் காதலின் கனம். கதாபாத்திரங்களுடன் வளர்ந்துவரும் அந்த ரெட்டை பனை மரம் காவிய சுவை. நுரைத்துப் பொங்கும் காதலுடன் மா*ரியாக வரும் பார்வதி மனதில் ப்ரேம் போட்டு தங்கிவிடுகிறார். கள்ளிப் பழம் கொடுக்க முடியாத விரக்தியில் அழுகிறாரே.. கனிந்த நடிப்பு.
ஹீரோயின் ஓ*ரியண்ட் கதையில் ஓரமாக நிற்க வேண்டிவரும் என்பது தெ*ரிந்தே நடித்திருக்கிறார் ஸ்ரீகாந்த். மனைவி தன்னை திட்டுவது மா*ரிக்கு தெ*ரிந்துவிடக் கூடாது என்று தவிக்கும் காட்சியில் கவனிக்க வைக்கிறார். கேமரா எதிர்பார்க்கும் குறைந்தபட்ச அழகியலையும் நிராக*ரிக்கும் விதமாக பல நடிகர்களை அறிமுகப்படுத்திய சசியை எத்தனை பாராட்டினாலும் தகும்.
மா*ரியின் அம்மா, அண்ணன், தோழி, பேனாக்காரர், டீக்கடை அலோ, சின்ன வயது மா*ரி... சின்னச்சின்ன கேரக்டர்களையும் சின்சியராக செதுக்கியிருக்கிறார்கள். கதையை சிதைக்காத அதே நேரம் கதையை உயர்ந்தபட்ச சாத்தியங்களுக்கு கொண்டு செல்கிறது கேமரா. செம்மண் பிராந்தியத்தை காட்டும் லாங் ஷாட்கள் அற்புதமானவை. ரெட்டை பனை மரங்களை மா*ரி சுற்றிவரும் முதல் காட்சியில் பிரவாகித்துவரும் இசை மனதை நிறைக்கிறது.
அவன் (தங்கராசு) உனக்கு இல்லைனு ஆனபிறகும் அதே பாசத்தோடு உன்னால எப்படி இருக்க முடியுது? மா*ரியின் தோழி கேட்கும் இந்த கேள்விக்கான விடையை காட்சிகளாக்கியிருப்பதுதான் பூ-வின் ஆதாரம். மா*ரியின் எதிர்பார்ப்பில்லாத காதலின்முன் அனைத்துமே சிறுத்துவிடுகிறது.;
பூ-வில் சில நெருடல்கள். ஊருக்கே தெ*ரியும் மா*ரியின் காதல் தங்கராசுவுக்கு மட்டும் தெ*ரியாமல் போனது எப்படி? வாத்தியார் முன் துடுக்காக மாமனை கட்டிக்கப் போவதாக கூறும் மா*ரி, தங்கராசுவிடம் காதலை சொல்ல தடுமாறுவது பருவம் தந்த வெட்கமா? இல்லை தயக்கமா?
தங்கராசுவின் அப்பா பெ*ரிய இடத்து சம்பந்தத்துக்கு ஆசைபடுவதற்கும், ஸ்ரீகாந்த் சொந்தத்தில் திருமணம் செய்வதை தவிர்ப்பதற்கும் வைத்திருக்கும் காட்சிகள் தேவைதானா? அனைத்திற்கும் காரணம் சொல்ல திரைப்படம் என்பது நீதிமன்றம் இல்லையே.
தங்கராசுவை பார்க்க முடியாத வலி, ஏமாற்றம் ஆகியவற்றின் மூலமே மா*ரியின் காதலை சொல்லியிருப்பது படத்தை வழக்கமான பார்முலாவுக்குள் சிக்க வைக்கிறது.
தமிழில் வெளியாகும் அள்ளித் தெ**ளித்த கோலங்களுக்கு நடுவே அழுத்தமாக கதை சொல்ல முயன்றிருக்கும் சசியின் பூ... குறிஞ்சி*ப் ‘பூ‘.

Poo at Chennai International Film Festival
Poo (directed by Sasi and produced by Moser Baer) is one of the most beautiful films released in recent times. The film was released less than two weeks ago and it has already been selected for a screening at Chennai International Film Festival which starts on December 17th. Not just the Chennai International Film Festival but Poo has been getting invites from various international film festivals as well!
Well, getting selected for an international film festival is in itself an achievement, but getting selected within days of its release is quite a feat, a feat that speaks volumes about its content and quality. Poo, which brought to the silver screens the beautiful tale of a simple village girl, has been running successfully to packed houses, proving that formula films are not the only road to success. This will encourage its producer Moser Baer to make more beautiful films like Poo.
This is only a beginning and no one shall be surprised if Poo lands at the Oscars and brings home an Oscar, such is its appeal and content.

Poo receives rare TV award
Makkal TV, synonymous with consciously avoiding cinema and anything remotely related to it, has announced the Best Film award for the recently released Poo. The awards are announced in 32 categories and, for the first time, cinema is included in the list. It is also mentioned in the press note released by the TV that the Best Film category has been added as an exception to honor Poo that depicted the rural life of people in the interior of Tamil Nadu successfully.
The award will be distributed by Union Health and Family Welfare Minister Dr. Anbumani Ramdass in an event on January 12th, in the premises of Chettinad Vidyashram School, Raja Annamalaipuram. Poo, starring Srikanth and Parvathi, is directed by Sasi and is based on the short story called 'Veyilodu Poi' written by Tamilselvan.

Watched it...at times i couldn't help but groaning at how naive Mari was, other times i couldn't help but feel for her...there was a good deal of wondering whether it was the city boy would fall for the city girl...was not expecting the whole hereditary issue either. For the most part I enjoyed the childhood sentiment, the friendship between Cheeni and Mari, the scenery was breathtaking...and Srikanth knew he would be overshadowed and played his part well. The father of Thangarasa should get mention as well. Does anyone who played Mari's hubby? I will say that I really did not like the ending...it definitely had lots of story space for it to end on a positive note...i guess i was expecting Mari to take a "everything happens for the best" outlook especially after how the movie started out....but it seems a betrayal on both sides....after her preoccupations and the ending it seems that even the relationship between Mari and her hubby is shallow at least from her view.
