Anjali Menon's Love Letter to Youth: 10 Years of Bangalore Days!
Despite being a decade old, Anjali Menon's film "Bangalore Days" remains a standout in the Malayalam film industry for non-Malayalees. Unlike traditional Malayalam movies, it focuses on human emotions and relationships. While Indian cinema often explores family bonds, "Bangalore Days" stands out for its portrayal of the bond between three cousins.
This aspect resonated with audiences, urging them to reconnect with their own cousins. The film revolves around Arjun (Aju), Krishnan (Kuttan), and Kunju, who share a strong bond since childhood. Their pact to enjoy Bangalore together comes true, as fate brings them to the city.
The choice of Bangalore as the setting adds to the film's appeal, especially for Malayalees, given its proximity and significance as a destination for education and work. Anjali Menon skillfully portrays Bangalore as a character in the film, giving "Bangalore Days" a unique charm rarely seen in Malayalam films set outside Kerala.
