Rapping is the major concept in chithha movie. Don't flee from the truth, says Unmaiyilerndhu odaatheenga. One of Tamil author Sujatha's murder novels contains a throwaway line that has stuck with me. The protagonist says this after a woman declines to visit an unidentified dead body.Chithha, a film by SU Arun Kumar, aims to do that. It forces us to see things we deliberately try to avoid. Because of this, some of Chithha can be difficult to watch. Your gut turns as you hear the pedophilic serial killer list Vaseline among the other products he wants from the store. You want to scream, "Hell, yes!" as Eeswaran (Siddharth) wants to mercilessly slay the child molester. But Chithha forces you to consider the situation from a different angle than punishment.
It shifts attention from the offenders to the victims. It emphasizes the idea that even the passionate desire to punish those creatures is an attempt to evade the reality. Chithha is well ahead of the curve at a time when the topic of child abuse is still taboo in society. It elevates the discussion to a more responsible level.
Chithha succeeds because of its maturity, which can be seen in both its form and its thoughts. It is an excellent movie as well, not merely a movie with noble aims. And the very first scene makes that clear. Shakthi (Nimisha Sajayan) exits the bus and makes her way to the bathroom. The restroom is occupied, so she waits outside. Shakthi prevents the home's tenant from leaving when she emerges. "What's this?" she asks, pointing inside the toilet. She commands her to properly flush the toilet. She demands that she accept accountability. In the movie's climax, she tells Eeswaran (Siddharth) the same thing, demonstrating how a consistent character is created.A close-up of Shakthi's wet legs and pajamas is shown as she exits the bathroom later. Make of the shot what you'll at this point. It might be a measure of how much water Shakthi used to flush the toilet, or it might be about the general unease of life, or it might just be a record of reality. It is a straightforward photograph of commonplace items that no one gives much thought to, but the moment it is written about or photographed, it takes on a whole new significance. Chithha is mature in its form since that is the joy of art.
