Kalyani Priyadarshan shines
Directed by Dominic Arun, ‘Lokah’ stars Kalyani Priyadarshan in one of her most acclaimed performances, alongside Naslen K. Gafoor, Vijayaraghavan, Arun Kurian, and Sandy Master. Apart from Dominic Arun’s magnificent direction, the viewers hail Kalyani Priyadarshan’s stunning performance as Neeli aka Chandra in this superhero film. In our official ETimes review for ‘Lokah’, we say, “In a role that’s a far cry from her previous roles, Kalyani manages to bring out the soul and humanity in the larger-than-life Chandra. As for Naslen, not a single line that he utters comes across as rehearsed. He delivers the most basic lines with perfect timing and commendable spontaneity. In recent times, it so happens that star cameos often tend to overshadow the core conflict of a film. In Lokah, certain celebrity cameos do feel overstretched, but they are incorporated well into the narrative without taking us away from Chandran’s story.”
