The Shamitabh - a great tribute to most loved voice by a talented actor in Dhanush.
Balki and his love for one liners and his knack of advertising is on display in this movie. The story is about a talented mute Danish, wannabe actor, being given the strength of sound by Amithabh.
The film portrays what could happen to talent if one were to overcome an inability through another's ability. It is about the gift of voice to the confidence of the silent. The story that What happens when success dawns on the people with combined identity, egos grow. It involves heated exchanges of words directed at one another beyond the success of combination of acting ability of Danish and the voice that worded it ( Amitabh .With imagination at its core when it comes to voicing a mute's thought, the director has scripted his thought to achieve what seems impossible. It's also reveals the admiration for the voice of a legend.
Supremely gifted actors show off their performances to make Shamitabh a reality. Dhanush here really stands up to the Icon of an actor Amitabh. He should now have a pan India presence after that. If there was one drawback that Dhanush had for Bollywood, that was his voice, which has now been voiced over by Amitabh in this movie.
And in the climax, the renaissance caused by waning egos and late realisation succumbs to the clutch of fate and the intoxication of success is overcome by the muting silence that follows. After an accidental fate, the drunkard loses his voice, an actor loses his life, there is renewed silence this time without hope as intoxication is muted by the reality of the fate that ensues.
The kick of a whisky filled with a husky voice is subdued by the all conquering water of fate in this supposed dramedy which ends in a tragedy.
With mainstream cinemas like this, India is heading west as Bollywood heads for a fest.
