Yesterday I had the luck to see the Malayalam timeless classic film 'Karunyam'.
It's a stirring film about the sacrifices of an Indian father as the senior most person of the family. While living he does his best to make ends meet. He converted even his death a solution for his son's unemployment. His life's caricature is sometimes a true reflection of an average middle classed Indian, upon which lies the burden of entire family.

Played by Murali as the lead role in film, this is perhaps the best performance a watcher could see.

This film is written and directed by Lohitha Das. I know he has directed "Veendum chila veetukaryangal" too , which is on similar lines. He commends great respect in portraying the father-son relationship and problems in a family and the viewer gets to appreciate the sacrifices made by elders. At sametime there are lessons for the youth to shun ego and selfishness and to earn a living through hardwork. As story moves there are situations that happens in everyone's lives.

Excellent story and film. Great one by Murali.
