Arjunan Saakshi

2nd movie by the Passenger fame Ranjith Sankar is a Prithiviraj starrer - Arjunan Saakshi.

I believe Passenger was a 'Cricket's Solomon's Throw' for the director, but Arjunan Saakshi doesn't fare far behind. But for one or two compromises for a star like Prithiviraj, the director has done full justice to the script and the central theme. The most catchy part was the Courtroom climax, where the protagonist sums up his promised statement in private to the Judicial bench.

.... loosely translated to english
Given are the documents indicating the consent to withdrawal of all the legal blockades against the Metro-Rail Project made out by these four accused. This Project must see light, Your Honour; Not just for they were the dreams of Late Feroze Muppan, it must be accomplished for each of us individuals.

Not by my personal genius that I have been able to bring the guilty to light. Not out of incapacity, the Police and the enforcemenet system were unable to establish the truth, their hands are rather tied! I am not Arjunan; I am a poor victim of a mistaken identity who got entangled into this; but Arjunan is somewhere amongst us, yet he is unable to find courage to come out and expose the truth in day light. His fear is your failure, since you are the creators of Arjunan and his likes. When people like Freoze Muppan are eliminated from among us, when an average citizen is denied justice, people like Arjunan keep propping up.
