ഒരു മലയാള ചിത്രം കൂടി ഒടിടിയില്‍; സംയുക്തയുടെ 'എരിഡ' ആമസോണ്‍ പ്രൈമില്‍

 


The story essentially revolves around the characters of Samyuktha and Nasser, who initially seem like a happily married couple. Even though Nasser is visibly older and predictably wealthy, the relationship the duo share seems to be a bed of roses. Until we see the couple retreat to their country house and learn how everything has been a pretence. By the time, we process the little revelations, another character takes the center stage.

The dark thriller then introduces the character of Kishore, who not only looks unrecognizable in his role but also, an uninvited, unnecessary add on given half the context what the film is set on feels incomplete and distant. Erida replicates the character of Draupadi from the epic, Mahabharat given how her husband just like the Pandavas put the wife at stake in a game of poker. But solely by drawing a reference to mythology, it is foolish to think that the entire film will flip to take a feminist side.
