Anni Manchi Sakunamule

How many times have seen the "hero" play and act like a loser throughout most of the movie, only to suddenly turn into the "hero"!!

Not that this is impossible, just that it was presented so very foolishly. And the actor who plays the role, had no clue how to emote or deliver his role.

The heroine Malvika and most others did a decent job. But the story offers no scope. Artificially creating situation out of nothing. Many such scene or situations, so very artificial!! Wonder if they thought this thru'.

And in the end, they quickly jumbled up everything. In 5 minutes or so, they quickly solved a lifetime problem. Only in the movies. But its not so bad these days. Well, this was.

Waste of time!

Wasted opportunity, could have been better. Movie has good casting expect the main hero. Director didn't make use of their full potential.

Thin story, sluggish narration. Filled with too many random scenes.

Last 15 minutes could have been better. Family emotions were weak.

Santosh Sobhan didn't suite the role, his acting was weak.

Malvika Nair was very good in acting, her acting skills have improved a lot.

Vennela Kishore comedy was good. Director could have added more family comedy scenes rather than random scenes.

Rajendra Prasad, Rao Ramesh, Naresh are as usual good with there roles.

Gauthami was bad, she didn't carry right emotions as a mother.

This is very Soulful family movie, shows that love is far more important in life then revenge hatred and family differences, love between Rishi and Arya was well depicted even through it was conceled till the end. The issue of the kids being exchanged was treated very nicely and in a mature was without too much of Drama on the issue,

This movie is an eye opener for family who fight court cases year after year to resolve family disputes, life is far more important than this we should not sacrifice our lives to these trivial and stupid matters in life .

All in all verry nice movie definitely worth watching.

Hands down this movie made my weekend. A couple of things I liked the most about the movie, the locations in this movie were too good, the way they showed a female lead as a responsible person who saved her family was kind of new. Music was vera level. Great performance by the cast, most of them were veteran actors. Glad to watch Ashwin among them. I have been following the work of the female lead ever since Kuckoo came. She was amazing in this too. This is a breezy love story. The childhood love portions were cute. I had no clue that the female lead also was in love! This part was too subtle. Good one overall.

Another classic from nandini reddy, whom I rate as one of the finest directors of telugu film industry. Legendary supporting cast brought life to this movie with their great acting. Rajendra prasd and rao ramesh lived upto the expectations. Santhosh shoban is going places by taking up such meaningful films. Great love story. The song about traditional food is well written and well presented. Overall very pleasant film. I wish more films like this are made in Telugu industry which mostly presents us with meaningless hero mania with wafer thin story lines. A pleasant film you can watch with family and kids.
