Uppu Kappurambu

Mindless comedies are evergreen - cartoonish characters, illogical settings, impractical solutions and absurd problems - these are just the DNA for such flicks. So I had clear idea what to expect and turn off my logic while watching this.

To be honest the first half is pretty good - especially Keerthy as a bumbling, naive fool and the setting, premise all were good and well detailed.

But second half the director did a sacrosanct sin with comedies - he went serious! This is disastrous - because once you become serious and try to seriously solve ridiculous problems and illogical situations in a comedy - the entire thing falls apart!

Smart storytellers either turn black comedy or venture into horror or even break the 4th wall (like in Deadpool or even bits in Pyar ke side effects, Kal ho na ho etc.)

Giving it a 5 rating just for the entertaining first half.

Movie has a lot of silly jokes and the movie has a wafer thin plot which cannot be considered important for movie. And the whole movie revolves around a Graveyard in the village Chittijayapuram.

And the movie wanted to carry the emotion or the sentiment where everyone wants to be buried in the village they were born.

And when come about acting as always Suhas has given good performance but it can be better because while watching the film I can see more Suhas traits than the character 'CHINNA' and keerthy Suresh has given a decent performance compared to her last 5-7 movies.

Movie is a decent film. And as of me it is a 1Time watch film. The prime videos could've done better.

Uppu Kappu Rambu is a film that thrives on its performances and storytelling, and honestly, Keerthy and Suhas have absolutely killed it in the acting department. Both bring such natural charm and depth to their characters that you're hooked every time they're on screen.

As a big Keerthy Suresh fan, I can say it's always a delight to watch her perform, but here, she feels even more refreshing-balancing grace, emotion, and comic timing with ease. Suhas, on the other hand, matches her beat for beat, proving yet again why he's one of the most exciting talents in Telugu cinema today. Their chemistry doesn't just carry the film, it elevates it.

The writing deserves equal praise. The story is tight, engaging, and layered with emotions without losing its entertainment value. What really stands out, though, are the comedic portions. They're not the typical forced "filler comedy" you see in many films; instead, they flow naturally within the story. Honestly, some of the comedy scenes in this film are among the best we've seen in Telugu cinema this year-they land perfectly, make you laugh out loud, and still serve the plot.

Overall, Uppu Kappu Rambu strikes the right balance between solid performances, witty comedy, and engaging storytelling. It's the kind of film that keeps you smiling long after the credits roll, and for fans of Keerthy (like me), it's an absolute treat.

Uppu Kappurambu has a storyline with great potential, and it starts off strong-especially thanks to Rana's narration in the beginning, which is particularly engaging and sets the tone perfectly.

Suhas delivers one of his best performances, bringing real depth to his role. Keerthy Suresh's character feels a bit cartoonish in the early part of the film, but her arc gradually shapes up and ends on a decent note.

The second half, however, loses some of its grip. The storytelling starts to feel weak and a bit stretched, which takes away from the initial promise.

On the brighter side, the visuals and setting are beautifully done. The locations bring the 80s village vibe alive, and that nostalgic aesthetic works really well.

While the film was pitched as a comedy, it doesn't quite land on that front. But it still works as a simple, casual watch at home-definitely better suited for an OTT release than theaters.

A rural story set in an earlier period, featuring a woman as the lead who becomes the leader of a village and resolves a problem. The main conflict arises when a shortage of burial space in the village graveyard enters the plot, and the solution stands out because it goes against the village's traditions. The plot goes as finding solution to the problem. A slow run story, but this film might not disappoint viewers looking for a fresh or engaging story. It's a decent film that stands on uniqueness of different characters and keeps engaging in unexpected scenes. This movie successfully balances entertainment and depth, would be better if the beginning scenes shorten.
