Makaramanju is a fascinating dive into the life of Raja Ravi Varma, the pioneering artist, focusing on a pivotal moment of his creative journey. The film intertwines his struggle with the legendary tale of Pururavas and Urvashi, which adds this rich layer of romance and mythology. The pacing allows for a reflective atmosphere, almost meditative at times, giving you space to absorb the beauty of the visuals and the weight of the themes. The performances have a certain authenticity, bringing out the inner conflict of an artist torn between love and duty. There’s something quite distinctive in its practical effects too, which gives a real texture to the storytelling. It’s not just about the paintings, but the emotional landscape that frames them.
