Ram Prasad Music: M.M.Keeravani Producers: Sobhu Yarlagadda, Prasad Devineni Screenplay-Direction: SS Rajamouli CBFC Rating: ‘U’ Release date: 23-07-2010 Story Ramu (Sunil) is an orphan and he happens to visit Rayalaseema. He meets Archana (Saloni) on a train journey. Coincidentally he visits the same house (Archana’s) to meet his father Ramineedu (Nagineedu). Ramineedu and his family are in search of a person who is his rival’s son. Ramineedu gets to know of Ramu’s roots and he is the person they are in search of, but the Rayalaseema nature stops him and he continues with his sincere hospitality with a plan to attack him as soon as he steps out of the house. Will Ramu ever escape from there? Forms the rest. Performances Sunil suited to the role well. It’s a tailor made one for him and he performed with much ease. Saloni is cute and her costumes (Punjabi Suits and half sarees) suited her much. Nagineedu, Supreeth, Brahmaji have done decent job. The story is simple and plain; The Screenplay is predictable at times. Dialogues are good in places. Cinematography and art direction are of top notch. Editing is sleek. The graphics work looked good in some scenes. The Direction was good. The Production Values are rich. Analysis Sunil looked lean and perfect somehow the charm and grace is missing in his face. All his expressions in the second half are very good and evoked good humor in the theatres. Saloni suited well to the girl next door character; She impresses with her cute smile. She looked fresh and homely. Naaginedu impresses with his action and dialogues. Supreeth was good. Brahmaji’s role was well etched. Raviteja dubbed his voice to express the feelings of hero’s bicycle. It evoked some laughs initially.
Music By keeravani is a definite plus to the movie. All the songs are pretty much Good and are in sync with the mood of the film. The lyrics are very much traditional and good. "Ammayi Kitiki Pakkana" and "Telugammayi" are well written by Anantha Sriram.

There is an additional Background Song comes in bits and pieces throughout the movie.The Background Score is very impressive.Rajamouli diversified and tried his hand at a different genre this time. The story line is very thin and it is really difficult to narrate such a weak thread for complete two hours. Rajamouli succeeded in doing so to a large extent. The second half bores you a bit and appears dragged. Lack of twists and turns in the story is a big minus. The emotional graph was carried well till the Climax. It has become a habit for Rajamouli to use the graphics to the maximum extent. There are many graphics shots. Some appeared natural but some looked artificial. He has to take care of over usage of technical works. The Climax is unconventional and unnatural. The ending of the movie appeared artificial. The emotional graph and build up given till then suddenly drops out. The love/romance thread was also missing.It is a comedy experiment by Rajamouli. He Movie is not a complete laughing riot but brings smiles on your face occasionally. It is too early to predict the Movie’s fate. The success completely depends on how it fares at B, C Centers. Plus: Sunil, Music, and Performances Minus: Wafer thin story, Climax Verdict: Less Content -- more Glossy, Watch it once without expectations |
