Solo (2017) Review - Neither Best Nor Worst



SOLO STORY: An experimental romantic thriller, Solo is the story of four different men, their love, rage and afterlife. Through four elements - water, air, fire and earth, they also represent different facets of Lord Siva
Solo puts together four tales, which can take on flashback rides through the ragged emotions, stupidity, dreams, turmoil and melodrama of young romance, in the backdrop of some insistent music. The stories are connected to different demeanours of Siva too, in spirit and framework. And some of them work, some don't.. 

Solo has four segments - the worlds of a college student named Shekhar, Trilok, a doctor; gangster Siva and army man Rudra.

Dulquer Salmaan, who plays four distinct characters, has also showcased a worthy performance. Especially as Siva, the gangster, he looks a lot more convincing in Solo than in other movies in which he has tried the role. Not all the leading ladies get enough space to perform but Dhansika and Sruthy Hariharan has done justice to the individuality and temperament of the women they play

Most of the segments in Solo strike a chord with their serene and thrilling moments and the movie can be a delightful watch, if you are in a mood to explore something different. 

Overall Rating - 2.5/5
