Solaiyamma is quite an intriguing piece from the early 90s, showcasing a raw emotion that feels almost palpable. The story revolves around Solaiyamma, a woman facing life without her mother, under the protective but perhaps limiting gaze of her father. The budding romance with Balraj is tender, but it's sharply contrasted by the menace of Vairavan, a brute who embodies fear in the village. The film's pacing fluctuates, mirroring the turmoil in Solaiyamma's life, and there's a gritty realism in the portrayal of violence, adding a heavy undertone. Performances are earnest, with an intensity that pulls you in. It's the stark juxtaposition of hope and terror that sets this film apart, making it a unique watch in the drama genre.
