Tamil Movie 'Aarohanam' Review | Kashayam with Bosskey - Aarohanam

Aarohanam is 2012 Tamil drama film directed
by Lakshmy Ramakrishnan. It stars
Jayaprakash, Viji Chandrasekhar, Uma
Padmanabhan and Rajee Vijayasarathy among
others. According to the director, the film
revolves around a missing mother.
Joining the list is Lakshmi Ramakrishnan. An
actress-turned-director, she has attempted a
film that speaks about the travails of a woman
who witnesses highs and lows in her life.
It is no doubt a different attempt by her
considering that it is just a 90-minute feature
film that largely reflects the events that
happens in a family of a son and a daughter
who go in search of their missing mother.
Kudos to Lakshmi for touching upon a untouched
'medical' issue without going too much deep into
it. It is no preachy stuff too.
At a time when hero-centric films rule the
roost, Lakshmi's guts to touch upon a female-
centric film deserves a special mention. With
an apt star cast and strong technical crew to
assist her, she has managed to make it a good
watch.
