99

I love the way this nostalgic story is portrayed in this movie. Its difficult for everyone to like it, some one with a similar story will relate to it more. Lovely acting by the lead actors, especially Bhavana. Fantastic dialogues , acting everything.

Most of the negative comments are just because this movie is a remake of a tamil movie 96. I haven't watched the movie '96', so i cannot compare it with this movie. But this movie is just awesome. Acting is also good.

Poor acting from the lead pair.. average music..and BGM... better to watch original...not even the 50% of the original 96

This is a movie with which introverts will mostly relate to, although its not specifically that, extroverts may also like it. There is no vulagarity in the movie but just emotions. This is the remake of a south indian movie,( I dont know specifically because I dont follow south indian film industry that much) so some may say that they liked the original version more and since I have'nt watched that one so I did not have anything to compare with so I really liked this one. Watch this and you will definately feel for Ram and Janu. Both the actors did a good job and everything felt very realistic.

The movie has a love story which is stretched over two and a half hours - An unmarried guy Ram (Golden Star Ganesh) meets his 1999 batch school love Janu (Bhavana) after 20 years at a school reunion and then he regrets on not expressing his love to her in the first place. The film revolves around a somewhat complicated love story where Ram hides his feelings within himself without unveiling it openly to Janu. The film also shows his state of mind as muddled and how he has lost his confidence to love someone else in his life as he's unable to forget her. The first half of the film is enchanting where their earlier school life in Theertahalli in Shivamogga is shown. The second half shows their present life and is quite a strain to watch. The actors Hemanth and Samikshaa who have played as younger Ram & Janu have performed brilliantly. Especially the cute and beautiful Samikshaa will steal your heart with her charming, sweet smile & acting. Ganesh & Bhavana have also delivered their performances very well. The cinematography by Santosh Rai is excellent and the music by Arjun Janya in this film which is his 100th one is quite good. Although there are some melodious tracks, they don't create much of an impact on the viewer. The film has a very slow pace and it drags at many places where silence & pauses are used with minimal dialogues. All in all you can watch this film if you have the patience to sit through a slow paced romantic film.
