Aadujeevitham Inspired From Maryan? Here Are Some Common Facts About Both South Indian Films
The decade-old Dhanush-starrer "Maryan" has resurfaced in recent discussions, sparking debates and comparisons, particularly with the successful Prithviraj-starrer "Aadujeevitham."
Aadujeevitham Inspired From Maryan?
The controversy stems from claims by some netizens asserting that "Maryan" served as the source of inspiration for "Aadujeevitham."
Director's Clarification:
However, director Bharat Bala of "Maryan" swiftly debunked these assertions, affirming that his film drew inspiration from Benyamin's novel "Aadujeevitham" and real-life events in Sudan.
Despite this clarification, the uncanny similarities between the two films continue to intrigue audiences.
Exploring Parallel Themes:
Both "Aadujeevitham" and "Maryan" get into the narrative of migration and the struggles faced by protagonists uprooted from their coastal villages.
In "Aadujeevitham," Najeeb seeks a better life in the Gulf, while in "Maryan," the titular character ventures to Sudan for work.
Their journeys reflect the harsh realities of displacement and captivity.
Same Backgrounds?
Najeeb, hailing from a coastal village, toiled along the riverbanks of Arattupuzha in Haripad, embodying a connection with water despite recurrent illness. Similarly, Maryan, a fisherman from Neerody in Kanyakumari, identified himself as the "King of the Sea," immersing himself in the ocean's depths.
Parallel Escape Narratives:
The comparisons intensified with the release of the "Aadujeevitham" trailer, showcasing Najeeb's arduous escape from his captor in the desert. This pivotal sequence echoed themes found in "Maryan," where Dhanush's character and his companion navigate the perilous desert terrain to evade Sudanese terrorists.
As discussions persist regarding the resemblances between "Maryan" and "Aadujeevitham," audiences remain captivated by the shared themes and narratives encapsulated in both cinematic endeavors. While controversies may swirl, the enduring impact of these films on viewers' hearts and minds remains undeniable.
