Add to that the brilliant camera work by Pradeesh Varma and editing by Manoj, which takes the movie much about the regular terrain of similar sports based flicks. The brainy techniques used for the time lapses and meticulousness with which the time period is depicted also will vouch for the bright film maker in this debutante, who delivers a perfect shot even in the pacing of the movie. The messages are not preachy and comes natural that adds to that feel good mood of the movie. Abrid Shine's story and the script (cowritten by Bipin Chandran) fit perfectly on the grammar of commercial cinema. The dialogues are simple, appealing and realistic just like the muddy terrains where the lads play all the day. When it combines with the inherent honesty of storytelling and pitching the name of Sachin in every possible scene, `1983' graduates to become one of the fine films of the recent times. The movie works heavily on the nostalgia that every cricket lover carries in his heart. Later we find him as a middle aged man, who is now the father of a ten year old, quite astonished to see his son handling the heavy bat just like a feather. Even when stooped down to a third class in S S L Cand even when he failed in P D C or even when his long time sweetheart walked away with an American husband, Rameshan did survive the heat due to his passion for the game and his friends. The fine student in him who aspired to be an engineer, very soon gets infected with cricket fever, ever ready to carry the bat for his local team and friends. Nivin Pauly is Rameshan in the film who gets glued to the magic of cricket, ever since he watched the winning ways of India since 1983 world cup. He also uses the brand of Sachin Tendulkar in a parallel track so successfully that anything that is related to this great legend cannot be an unlikeable one. Debutante filmmaker Abrid Shine while embarking on a subject just needed to put the heart at the right place, which he does with finesse making this `1983' a real tribute to cricket and classy cinema. In a country where cricket is the biggest religion, it is a safe bet to make one on its spirit and nostalgia.
