Where it lacques
Given that Director Ramesh Indira is Known for his Kannada Serials, Ayyana Mane also follows a similar soap opera template and not an ott series format. What is supposed to be a gripping mystery through and lacques the sinister atmospheric theme one would expect in such a series. There are a few red herrings thrown to put numerous people under Suspicion, but they are neither convincing normal. Even the reasons as to whose killings are being are also not compeling enough.
Themes like family Gods and rituals, and superstitions in rural area have been explred in ayyana mane, but it’s all at a very superficial level, unfortunately. Thus, The screenplay does not flow smoothly, and it becomes teedous midway.
Kannada Actor Kushee Ravi anchors the series and essays the innocent-yet-curious, frightened-yet-courageous jaaji with ease. Since Ayyana Mane is like a Regular TV Soap, The Role Would have been a cakewalk for her. Manasi Sudhir has an important role and is convincing while the others are par for the course.
Technically, the cinematography by Rahul Roy Stands out as do the Costumes by Shilpa Hegde, Especially the choice of sarees for the women. The Bgm by Lv Muthu Ganesh, Son of L Vaidyanathan, Elevates The Scenes as Well.
On the whole, Ayyana Mane has an interesting premise but this tale of mysterious deaths, superstitions and Gods is let down by Poor writing.
