About
Adbhutham:
Adbhutham, fourth in Jayaraj's Navarasa series (other films
are Karnam, Shantam and Bheebhatsa) narrates the universally
relevant theme of life and death. The etymological meaning
of Malayalam word Adbhutham (basically from Sanskrit) is,
something never happened in past. The film is about the first
ever 'euthanasia' (physician assisted suicide or mercy killing),
which is going to happen in Oregon State of America, the first
state legalized euthanasia.
The
story is about a well known Indian-English dramatist and writer
settled in Oregon, now in his deathbed, waiting for the mercy
of his doctors. Everything is legally ready to kill him by
mercy. Now he has only one and a half hours left in his life.
The
making of this film too is a matter of wonder, as in the case
of its theme. The complete film will be shot in less than
10 consecutive hours at Ramoji Film City on 13th of December.
The
cast list includes National award winner Suresh Gopi, National
award winner KPAC Lalitha and new faces from home and abroad.
The technicians are Madampu Kunjukuttam (scenario), S Kumar
(cinematography) and Ashok (Art).
