Sarvam Shakthimayam (TV Series 2023): Technicians Review

Director Pradeep Maddali embarked on a storytelling journey that revolves around the transformation of an atheist and his evolving spiritual beliefs, shaped by his visits to various holy shrines. Comprising ten episodes, each approximately 30 minutes in duration, the series focuses unwaveringly on the spiritual aspects, prioritizing them over the depiction of the family's challenges and emotional nuances.

While this approach may seem innovative, it raises eyebrows as it delves into the life of a contemporary family, which, in the context of the present generation, is often marked by emotional susceptibilities. Regrettably, the storytelling lacks the finesse of execution, resulting in a somewhat lackluster narrative that struggles to resonate with the audience. The family conflicts come across as superficial and contrived, with characters and their behavior feeling somewhat disconnected from the overarching plot. The director's portrayal of the Maha Shakti Peethas is both convincing and aesthetically appealing.

Turning to the technical aspects, the background score tends to be overpowering and disrupts the overall mood and ambiance. Sajeesh Rajendran's cinematography showcases commendable work. However, it could have been better. The editing leaves much to be desired and tests the viewers' patience. The production values, on the other hand, maintain an average standard.

In general, "Sarvam Shakthi Mayam," crafted with noble intentions, unfortunately, falls short of providing the spiritual solace it aspires to deliver. This shortfall can be attributed to a lackluster screenplay and a sense of haste in manipulating viewers' emotions, rather than allowing them to authentically engage with the narrative. Considering all these elements, Cinejosh goes with a 1.5 Rating for Sarvam Shakti Mayam.
