Sidharth Vishwanath
Sorgavaasal (2024) drops you smack in the middle of a world that’s equal parts raw and poetic. Sidharth Vishwanath, who’s really starting to carve out a space for himself in the industry, takes the lead, and believe me, he doesn’t pull any punches. The story doesn’t waste time with fluff—right from the start, there’s this tension in the air; you can almost taste the stakes.
It follows a bunch of characters tangled up in each other’s lives, all hunting for some kind of redemption or, at the very least, a bit of peace. There’s grit in every frame, thanks to the way Sidharth brings this quiet intensity to his role. He’s not your typical hero, either—there’s a ton of nuance, with moments where you’re not totally sure if you should root for him or not. Honestly, that’s half the fun.
The supporting cast isn’t just background noise, either. Each character brings something weird or wonderful to the table. There are some heavy themes—family, loyalty, betrayal, forgiveness—but the film never gets preachy. Instead, it lets things get messy, and, yeah, sometimes that means you’ll squirm in your seat.
Visually, it’s got this gritty, lived-in vibe. Every shot feels deliberate, like there’s a story behind every cracked wall or shadowy alley. There’s an undercurrent of hope, but it never feels forced. Sorgavaasal hits hard because it’s honest—messy, flawed, and totally unafraid to show the ugly side of chasing salvation.
