Devastation by floods, stench of rotting bodies, guns of pitiless army people who have no pity even for kids, never ending war, sound of exploding bombs…these are every day scenes in war torn Eelam.
Aaniver' shows all this it as it is. Mahendran's son John who gave 'Udhirizhakkalai' is the director of 'Aaniver.' Supporting him in the film are Nanda and Madhumita Released in London, it received a lot of rave reviews. It was recently screened for the Tamil press here.
Nanda is a doctor who does medical aid in Killinochi. Without the forced emoting of other heroes, Nanda has given a realistic performance. Madhumita goes as reporter to Srilanka to gather information on the situation. She on her part has done well too. To get his Tamil Srilankan accent right for his dubbing, Nanda took 2 weeks.
Scenes involving Tamils features real Srilankan Tamils. The explosion of bombs and shooting spots are also for real. There is no manufactured emotion here. Everything is for real and wrings your heart thousand fold in its sadness.
"Do you know, how many babies I have lifted, who suckled milk from their mothers without being aware that they were dead? In your country, water flows in the river. Here, it's not like that. Blood runs," says Nanda to Madhumita and the viewers share his sorrow. In the climax, " One must clash with the army like a rock. We have to take our own freedom," and in this angry outpouring, one can hear the roar of the tigers.
'Aaniver' may not be the solution to the Eelam problem, but this will at least create awareness in the hearts of the people. One can make a salute to producer Prabakaran.
