Celluloid Malayalam movie reviewPrithviraj - Kamal team is back with another super hit movie "Celluloid". The first movie of this combination was "Swapnakoodu", directed by Kamal starring Prithviraj in the lead role. This movie was a super hit at the box office. Again there are chances for such a huge success the second time too.

By putting an end to the teasers and trailers, the movie "Celluloid" is released on 15th February 2013. It is a movie with historical importance and will be widely accepted by the true lovers of Malayalam cinema as it is all about J.C Daniel and his struggles to make the very first Malayalam film "Vigathakumaran", the silent movie (1928).

In the movie Celluloid, the young superstar Prithviraj appears in two different roles, one as young J.C Daniel, father of Malayalam cinema and the other one as old aged J.C Daniel. Both the roles have been handled well by this young star and definitely hats off to the make-up man, Pattanam Rasheed for creating wonders. This movie truly brings out the talents within the actor and he has proved that any kind of role can be well handled by him. Director Leo Thadeus after watching this movie has commented that Prithviraj's acting is in international standard.

The movie "Celluloid" is shot in Thiruvanandapuram and Mysore. All the elements used in this movie takes us back to the old generation. We get to see many things that we have never seen in our life through this movie. This movie is truly a tribute to J.C Daniel, who has never received any recognition for the efforts taken by him and the reason for it seems strange. The question that arose was as "Vigatahkumaran" was a silent movie, how could it be included in the category of Malayalam films. J.C Daniel had a tragic life, which is explained to the world through this movie. This Kamal film has a unique theme and will be one of the excellent movies by him.

"Celluloid" is a touching movie which has other elements such as romance, life, comedy etc in it. The movie talks about J.C Daniel, the first film-maker in Malayalam cinema industry. He had undergone lot of hardships and hurdles in-order to direct the first Malayalam film. Out of the hurdles, one important factor that made him very much upset was the scarcity to get artists. In those days, especially ladies were not at all ready to act for movies. Thus finally J.C Daniel had found a coolie women P.K Rosy to act in his first movie. She was very much excited to be the first heroine in Malayalam but soon after the release of the movie she disappeared into darkness as she could not stand the hatred towards her by the society.
