An official remake of the Kannada Film Birbal : Trilogy, Thimmarusu follows the story of a lawyer who investigates an eight year old case of a delivery guy falsely accused of a murder. The story definitely is engrossing and will keep you guessing till the very end, ofcourse if you haven’t watched the original which is available on Amazon Prime. The screenplay is quite interesting and engrossing even though you may have watched the original. For starters it rectifies some of the mistakes of the original which include unnecessary songs that did nothing but add crucial minutes to the length of the film. But where the original had scored(and this is also pretty good by the way), is the execution of the thrilling whodunnit that had made it such an engrossing watch. So if I have to compare the two screenplays, the honours would be shared. And another point here is that this is at the end of the day a mass entertainer. So you will have the protagonist play Sherlock in cracking the case, or beating up a group of goons. So if you are expecting a hard-hitting drama then this ain’t that film. This also has a few comic moments all nicely packaged in a mass masala entertainer, so please be prepared mentally before venturing. I quite enjoyed the twists and turns throughout with a satusfying end that makes it a well written screenplay for me.
