"Oru Adaar Love" review: Despite Roshan Abdul Rahoof’s Excellent Performance, It’s Not As Fantastic As Its Title

Oru Adaar Love

Director: Omar Lulu

Cast: Roshan Abdul Rahoof, Priya Prakash Varrier, Noorin Shereef, Siyadh Shajahan, Michelle Ann Daniel

Rating: 2/5

Oru Adaar Love means One Fantastic Love but the film is not as fantastic as its title whatsoever. The film begins with the scene of a Freshers’ Day for 11th-grade students where Manikya Malaraya Poovi song is performed. You’ll get to see many twisted events and surprising fact about high school as the love stories unfold. However, many have argued that the film is quite unrealistic when it shows students with kohl-rimmed eyes makeup or dyed hairstyles. In another scene, a teacher confused Mahabharata with Baahubali, which raised the question of the quality of the education system in the state that has the highest literacy rate.

Roshan Abdul Rahoof and Priya Prakash Varrier play the main couple of the film, Roshan and Priya who had a crush on each other. Although not being the female lead of the film, Priya is still given lots of screen time. The main character of the film, Gadha, who is the best friend of Roshan, is played by Noorin Shereef. The first half of Oru Adaar Love is funny and relatable to some extent. You’ll find many things that can be related, from high school romance, jealousy, being bullied, to realizing what is true love and what is just a crush.

Here is the famous theme song of the film:

One thing is for sure, dating and romantic relationships aren’t the only things that high school students think about. Rather than the relationship between Roshan and Priya, the chemistry between Roshan and Noorin is the highlight of the film, it will make you want to embrace your significant other. The first part of the film is so hilarious that you will burst out laughing in the theatre. However, your good mood will soon be ruined with the tragic ending of the film. Oru Adaar Love ended in the most unexpected and unpleasant way that no one can be prepared for it. The ending scene is not only terrible, but it also lasts longer than it should. You’ll have to watch a 10-minute scene which can be done in just 30 seconds.

The reason why Omar Lulu, director of the film, chose such a sad ending is understandable, it’s just the way everything turned out that is unsatisfied and hard to understand. However, a plus point you can find in this film is Roshan’s acting skill and his romantic gestures which are so real and attractive. The way he reacts to Priya’s wink will definitely make your heart skip a beat.

In conclusion, Oru Adaar Love is not as fantastic as it should be but if you love movies about first love stories and high school romance, you should still give it a try.
