While talking to fwdlife, the four time national award winning actor, the legend of Indian Cinema, Mohanlal was all cool and soft. The film Spirit is about a fight; an unusual fight; fight between goodness and goodness. Usually, the cinematic theme circles around a war between good and bad. Here, the fight is between goodness and goodness. The suspense element of the film is the way the story is being told.
Alcohol consumption in Kerala is at large, he said. But, the trade of illicit liquor which sprouts up in festival season is a curse to the country. We have to stop it. If the people become more vigil and try to protect the society from such intruders of peace, the spontaneous flow of illicit liquor and drugs sale can be booked to the fullest. People who try to hide something from us are not actually hiding anything, if our eyes are open. So, it’s all in our own self to refrain them from spoiling our own crowd. It’s high time we said no to drugs and illicit liquor.
Prologue
Raghunanthan is a senior journalist in a leading Television channel in Kerala. He is an alcoholic philanthropist. Kerala tops the list in terms of per capita liquor consumption in the country. According to statistics, the average Kerala resident accounts for 8.3 litres of liquor every year – the highest in India, and nearly three times the national average. Apart from this, Kerala stands up in terms of consumption of illicit liquor in India. The illicit liquor trade with its hard roots in the mafia rooms of Karnataka and Tamil Nadu, often and especially at festival seasons, the outflow of illicit trade of liquor and spirit is at mayhem. The vibrant journalist in Raghunanthan, who wants to expose the illicit trade of spirit to Kerala, moves on his predator travel hunting his prey and finally wins over the mighty mafia amidst push and pull. Writing an autobiographical novel, Raghunanthan is all cheered up to the final lap in suspense. Meera and Capt Kartha along with Manian, Alexy and Maestri makes ‘spirit’ a lucrative piece of the cherry.
Mohanlal plays the role of the journalist Raghunanthan opposite Kaniha, Thilakan, Madhu and Shankar Ramakrishnan. Produced by Antony Perumbavoor and written by Shankar Ramakrishnan, the film gets all its spirit from the aposthalan director Ranjith. The frames go to celluloid through the eyes of cameraman Venu edited by Vijay Shankar. Yesudas sings in tune with Shahbaz Aman and art is directed by Santhosh Raman.
Film ‘Spirit’ is the story of the psychic inner vibrations and conniption of a man who got sidelined and carped by a more sidelined society
Like the princesse lointaine, the effects and atrocities of her denial, alcohol plays a prominent role in governing a class segment of society
