Vidiyum Munn (2013)
, 2h9Directed by Balaji K. Kumar
Origin Inde
Genres Drama, Thriller, Action
Themes Films about music and musicians, Films about sexuality, Erotic films, Films about prostitution, Musical films, Erotic thriller films
Actors Pooja Umashankar, Lakshmy Ramakrishnan, Vinoth Kishan, John Vijay, Anil Murali
The plot unfolds as a taut thriller that examines the characters' vulnerability and strengths. The subplot, however, explores a relationship between a woman & a girl; Rekha, the protagonist, is a sex worker who tries to rescue Nandhini, a twelve-year-old girl, from the clutches of prostitution. The journey takes us through the brutality and the hypocrisy that surrounds us, which we deliberately choose to ignore—broken homes, abuse, unfulfilled dreams, manipulation, blackmail, threat, hopelessness and paranoia. It's a dog-eat-dog world where nothing is as simple as it appears.
