Apothecary: A must watch psychological drama


Melvilasam, the 2011 courtroom drama directed by Madhav Ramdas was a disaster in the Kerala Box Office. But when the movie got released in DVD, it was opened to highly positive critical acclaim, and it emerged as one of the cult classics in the history of Malayalam Cinema. Now, Madhav Ramdas is again back in action with his new movie, 'Apothecary'. The film stars Suresh Gopi, Jayasurya and Asif Ali in the lead roles, and it hit the theaters on August 7th 2014. The initial reports about the movie is highly positive, and it is showing evident signs of emerging as an all time classic.

The movie portrays the sick business oriented attitude of healthcare institutions. It also open its eyes against the hand in glove relationship between doctors and drug companies, when it comes to illegal drug testing. Suresh Gopi plays the role of Dr. Vijay Nambiar whereas Jayasurya and Asif portrays the characters of his patients. Abhirami plays the role of Suresh Gopi's wife.

This movie can be considered as a real gem of a film, and in the end, it gives a valuable message. Madhav Ramdas has proved his caliber once again through this movie, and he is amply supported by the technical crew. All the actors have done their performance in an impeccable manner, and special mention should be given to Suresh Gopi and Jayasurya. The last 10 minutes of the movie was an in and out Suresh Gopi show, and these moments takes the movie to a new level.

Altogether, Apothecary is not a movie that should be missed on theaters. It is an absolute epitome of psychological drama film making, and you should watch it on theaters.
