It shines a mirror at the face of the machismo we have internalised as a society. In a story that starts as man versus wild, it doesn't take that long before man becomes the wild.Ĭhemban Vinod, Antony Varghese, Sabumon Abdusamad and Santhy Balachandran, all good actors, makes their mark within the limited screen time they receive. But at the end of the day, Jallikettu will not be known for their acting alone as this is the story of a mob. The shove, and push and pull of Jallikettu comes from within the crowd. And that brings us to the brilliant execution of it all. Jallikettu shines through with the spectacular and spellbinding visuals Girish Gangadharan puts forth in the race, as well as the pause. His capable lens arrests the audience precisely to what needs to be watched. Prashant Pillai is a musician who appreciates and manoeuvres music and silences alike. In Jallikettu, where frenzied chaos ensues, his nuanced music, and most often lack thereof, puts in just the right amount of sanity into the narrative so that the audience can grasp what unfolds on the screen. Aiding the fluidity of the narrative further is Renganaath Ravee's sound design.
