''Manasara'' 2010 is a love story set against the backdrop of Kalaripayattu, a martial art form that has origins in Kerala, a state in India and is considered the mother art from which other martial art forms like Karate and Kung-fu evolved. The film is produced by Prakash Babu Kadiyala on directed by Ravi Babu and stars debutants Vikram and Sri Divya. == Plot == Rajapalayam in Kerala is a village where time has literally stood still. A maternal, ritualistic society where honour held its head and sword high. The village folk lived and breathed Kalaripayittu that was their God, life and justice and were totally cut off from the modern world. Vikram’s(Vikram) family had to move to this village when his father’s job gets transferred there. Anjali(Sri Divya) is a village belle who teaches blind kids. Vikram falls in love with her but conscious of his average looks is not sure the pretty Anjali would accept him. His local benefactor Krishnan Kutty(Bhanu Chander) tells him that the secret to gain a woman’s love was not good looks but to have a good heart. Show her your heart, not your face, Kutty advises Vikram. Vikram follows the advice and masks himself and starts helping Anjali in difficult moments. The goodness of Vikram melts Anjali’s heart and she falls in love with him. But trouble was brewing in Anjali’s home as her wicked step-mother tries to get Anjali closer to Rajan. Rajan was the national Kalaripayittu champ and the devil incarnate when it came to women. He was also the brother of Anjali’s step-mother. Anjali’s relationship with Arjun is discovered by Rajan and Anjali is locked up in her home. Rajan thrashes Vikram in front of Anjali and makes him lick his sandals in front of Anjali to show her Vikram’s cowardice. Vikram’s family is told to pack and leave town immediately. Krishnan Kutty intervenes and calls for a meeting of the village elders. He tells them that Vikram’s only mistake was that he had fallen in love and that Anjali was in love with him too. He tells them that since their society was maternal the girls wishes had to be respected. But the village elders ordain that Vikram was not a local and had to forget the girl and leave. But on further persuasion by Krishan Kutty, they reconsider their decision and deliver their verdict. Since the girl had two suitors, only a bout of Kalaripayittu would determine who her husband would be. The winner would get her hand. The gauntlet is thrown and a boy with no knowledge of Kalaripayittu is pitted against the champ. Krishnan Kutty decides to train Vikram and Anjali’s father trains Rajan. Both Anjali’s father and Krishnan Kutty were disciples of one master and had a score to settle themselves. The bloody ten round Kalaripayittu climax decides the fate of Anjali and Vikram. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Manasara (2010 film)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
