Oru New Generation Pani Malayalam Movie

Very occasionally does a movie come along that almost makes you vow to stay off the screens for a few weeks, and this year, the one has finally arrived. I'd gladly go ahead with a no-star rating for this one, had it not been for a technical glitch that prevents me from doing so! Jul 5, 2015 By Veeyen

'Oru New Generation Pani' is an atrocity that shocks you with its attempt to spin out a story line that will have you banging you head against the rails. Inauthentic to the core, the film tells a story that will have an insomniac snoring away in no time.

The film starts off with a bike race where Karthik (Beyon Gemini) and his friends are getting ready for a huge competition that is up and coming. There is a whole lot of jubilation with Karthik scoring real well, and the narrator announces that the heroine of the tale has been named Induja (Deepthi).

Folks, that's all that you get to see of the hero in this film, and Induja takes over the reins of the film, right after the initial scene. Well, here is a girl who has won a reality show on television and thereby a flat as well, and whom we are told is prone to believing even the nastiest scams on the internet.

Which is perhaps why, she accepts a job from some imaginary television channel, and agrees to interview the business tycoon Menon (Devan), who takes an immediate liking towards the pretty lass. Menon doesn't think twice before appointing her as his personal secretary, much to the chagrin of his previous assistant (Geetha Vijayan).

When a few intimate morphed pics of Induja and Menon start doing the rounds, Menon sees red and fires her. Induja swears to find the culprits behind the herinous act, while her mother gets murdered in the elevator at Menon's office.

As much as all this sounds confounding, 'Oru New Generation Pani' is one of the most unintentionally funny films that I have watched in recent times. Almost all the scenes and sequences in it have been carried out with such tackiness that it is only with sheer astonishment that you will be able to sit through them.

And the nerve to name the film as one that caters to the new generation has to be specially admired. One only has to take one sharp look at the shot sequences in it to realize, that 'Oru New Generation Pani' is anything but new gen.

'Oru New Generation Pani' is uninvolving to the core, and the intricacy with which it finally breaks the suspense is the final nail on its coffin. This is a frustrating watch, whichever way you look at it, and is a misguided piece of work from the word 'go'.

What do I say about the actors in the film, when all I can feel is compassion for artistes like Beyon and Devan who put on a brave face and stride bravely through the catastrophe that they have landed themselves in. As for the leading actress Deepthi, this is perhaps not the kind of woman oriented film that would have launched her into stardom. Not a word on the technical aspects of the film, Sir!

Very occasionally does a movie come along that almost makes you vow to stay off the screens for a few weeks, and this year, the one has finally arrived. I'd gladly go ahead with a no-star rating for this one, had it not been for a technical glitch that prevents me from doing so!
