Lensmen Reviews
Koode from Anjali Menon is a heartwarming tale about the relationship between a brother and sister. It is based on the story of Marathi filmmaker Sachin Kundalkars movie happy journey. I havent tried to watch that movie to stay away from any possible spoilers, so this review wont be a comparison note. Just like any other Anjali Menon film, this one is also rich in emotions that are deep-rooted. With a set of really talented actors, this fantasy drama is a gently paced happiness pill.

Anjali Menon`s ability to delve deep into human emotions without going overboard is phenomenal. Much like her previous films, in Koode too, we get to see the brilliance of the writer in Anjali Menon. The screenplay is the backbone of the film and it has been neatly layered without any hiccups or forced sequences. Each character in Koode has his/her own identity and they have been established so well that we get to root for each one of them.

Prithviraj is convincing as a person who has experienced unspeakable abuse. I liked the way Anjali has handled Parvathy`s character. Even as she doesn`t get a lot of speaking lines, Sophie`s reactions tell a lot without saying anything.
