Chappa Kurishu - Malayalam
movie, directed
by Sameer Thahir, starring Fahadh Fazil and Vineeth Sreenivasan in lead
characters, as people living in two poles of life, luxury and poverty, depicts
the kind of transition that takes place in Vineeth Sreenivasan once he gets a
high-end phone. He speaks it to his lover that the amount of confidence he has
within himself while having the high-end phone with him.
The phone is our direct connection with our near and dear ones as well
as people whom we know. The basic phone would be serving us with bear
minimum features whereas the high-end phone opens up a big avenue of opportunities
right in front of us. Having a high-end phone has become a symbol of prestige
and social status.
The kind of features that the high-end phone offers are tremendous and
we get everything at our finger tips, making our life easy and happening. A
high-end phone can be an immediate alternative to laptop with its portability,
being handy and end number of features. A high-end phone connects us to the
whole world.
In the movie, though Vineeth Sreenivasan wanted to return the phone to
its owner many times, engulfed by the fantasy and the feeling of being something
in spite of the fact that he was from a poor background, he was not able to
return the phone on some reason or the other. The movie ends in a tragic note; he losing his
girlfriend and getting beaten up to the core.
This points out to the fact that how badly life of people could be
affected with the wrong uses of the phone. Of course, it is the need of the
hour to have such high-end phone but everyone does not require that kind of
phone because his neighbor owns one. Albert
Einstein had anticipated it accurate, “I fear the day when the technology
overlaps with our humanity. The world will only have a generation of
idiots"
Technology is a blessing at the same time it can be a curse as well as
depending on its right use. Having a high-end phone gives us a feeling that we
belong to an elite group in the society and give us confidence of being
something in our life.
