StoryLine:
Churuli 2021 Hindi 720p HDRip: Two undercover cops who go in search of a fugitive enter another dimension occupied by uncivilized residents who are crass and rude. There, the two men get stuck in an apparent time loop as inexplicable events begin to occur.
One thing’s for sure – Lijo Jose Pellissery isn’t the kind of filmmaker interested in spoon-feeding the audience. His films are doused in metaphors and allegories, and Churuli is no different. Would you call it a thinking viewer’s film? Nope. Because there is a deliberate attempt for the proceedings to stop making sense beyond a point. It all harks back to the mythical plot that the film opens with – the story of a monk who’s misled into an unending spiral by a fey creature. LJP mounts the film in a fantastic forested landscape – Madhu Neelakantan’s frames are a total feast for the eyes, punctuated occasionally by Sreerag Saji’s minimalist score. Renganaath Ravee’s sound design also deserves special mention.
