Story:
Anjali (Nitya Menon) is daughter of a rich Businessman Shivaji (Sai Kumar).
Anjali comes to India to spend time with his father. Shivaji leaves for an abroad
tour. Anjali plans for a vacation in Vizag with her friend. Anjali meets Surya
(Nara Rohith) and his caring family in a Hill station near Vizag. Surya falls
in love with Anjali and proposes her. How does she react to it? What happened
after that forms the remaining part of the story.
Performances:
Rohith Nara is adequate, he performed reasonably okay. Nitya Menon is good. She
is at ease while performing the role. Kota Srinivasa Rao, Sudha, Srinivasa
Reddy are okay. Sai Kumar is okay as father of heroine. Brahmanandam couldn’t
evoke laughs. Ali and MS were wasted. Cinematography is shaky at times. Editing
and Art work are okay. Music by karthik was below Average. Story is simple the
screenplay and narration are confusing and doesn’t fit the commercial format.
The Production values are Average.
Analysis:
The Director of thriller movie KATHA (Genelia, Prakash Raj) has
come up with another one. Srinivas Raga tried to provide a family oriented (at
least elements) angle which he missed in his previous flick. This film also has
a twist but it’s not convincing. The director followed the same format of his
earlier flick with stretched scenes.
Rohith
is okay, this time he tried an action oriented role and he has to work a lot on
his physic (looks fat in many frames) to sustain in the industry. Modulation in
his voice is needed which can fit to mass/ action flicks. Nitya Menon once
again impresses with her performance in a soft and sweet role. She is
expressive and conveys all the subtle emotions with eyes. Kota Srinivas is good
and Sudha is okay (even though it appeared overboard). Srinivasa Reddy and Nara
Rohith Combination is back after SOLO movie,
Srinivas Reddy is okay with his typical satirical punches but couldn’t evoke
much laughs. Rachana Mourya sizzles in the remix song “Puttintollu Tharimesaaru”.
Cinematography is okay (could have been better). The hill station
atmosphere and locations were well covered but it’s too jerky in crucial scenes.
Art work is fine. The editing is okay. ‘Hola Hola’ Song has cool visuals The
Singer turned Music director Karthik has given below Average music with a
haunting melody “Dole Dole”; the song
was picturised well too. The Background score is passable. The production
values are just okay. The Fight Sequences are choreographed well but they looked
very cheap (at few places) in terms of standards. Dialogues are okay,
Chintapalli Ramana has come up with his strong dosage lecture type dialogues---
“Prema valla oka Vinasanam
jarigindi…..Dhanni cheppataniki prayatnam chesaanu ….. Dhanivalla kooda oka
prema puttindi”. Naga babu’s fight
towards the climax got good response in the theater.
The
movie lacks Entertainment. It starts slowly and progresses at very slow pace;
later it gives the feel of a family flick. The second half is more predictable
and lacks the essential elements. The twists are okay to some extent but the
film falls flat in narration after that. The movie may not be liked by ‘A’
centers. We have to wait for the response of masses who will decide the fate of
the film at the BOX-OFFICE.
