Meeku Maathrame Chepta

When you do something wrong or stupid in the past, how do you deal with it in the present? Especially, when it comes to marriage/relationship. Do you confront it with truth and look for solution? Or will you try to hide and destroy the truth? That's the central theme of the film 'Meeku Maathrame Cheputha', which tries to ask these questions with such crazy plot which not many filmmakers would even try to attempt.

To keep it simple, Rakesh (Tharun Bhascker) is an irresponsible everyman, who lies a lot. Also, he drinks and smokes. He falls in love with a girl who expects him to not lie about what he does. He promises to her that he won't do any of the things he's done in the past, and she agrees to marry him. Only then, two days before his marriage, he gets a WhatsApp message of his resurfaced video. Now, his only motive is to get it taken down, and to hide it from his fiance.

I have not seen many movies dealing with such sensitive subject of a leaked xxx video in a humorous manner. This is a film with really good comic timing. The humor is well-written with no double-meaning dialogues or such. The attempts at humor are so genuine that you forgive the writer(s) for not making it land hard. Acting: Fantastic debut by Tharun Bhascker. Man, his acting is top notch and flawless. I had no problem with anyone in the acting department, as they all gave their best. Story: A not so relevant or important story, but a story for those whose teenage hormones will pump-in and say "I luv sex and will run to have it, or save it." It's a movie where relationships are more important than story or plot, so it's not a big issue. Photography: It has the same jazzy look of Ee Nagaraniki Emaindi, which keeps us near the feeling of comfort. The scenes are well-lit, and has the mood of a rich-man's haven. Better than most of the stupid masala movies.

Over-all, this is a good film that's watchable for those who are not very fixated on star heroes or hero-hype kind of movies. It's no masterpiece nor it has great humor. It's just a fun film with a so-so message. I expected it to be something awesome, considering Tharun Bhascker is a really good director. But I felt fine, it's a good picture. I want to give it a 7/10, but films attempting or dealing with subjects that are off-beat and taboo need to be encouraged and discussed.

Story Rakesh (Tharun Bhaskar) is a TV channel host who is all set to get married to his strict girlfriend. But to his bad luck, a video of him spending some cozy time with an old girlfriend goes viral and makes Rakesh scared to death. The rest of the story is as to how Rakesh goes through hell and gets the video deleted from the source. Review The film named "Meeku Matrame Cheptha" does complete justice to the movie.. The plot was very simple and funny.. First of all we have to appreciate the new young crazy director Tharun Bhaskar.. He as the main lead in the movie has done a decent job throughout the movie.. he is not only a director but he is a promising actor also.. The humor conquered the entire movie.. double-meaning dialogues have been written well by the debutante director Shameer Sulthan. He as a director has done a decent job. The co-star Abhinav as Kamesh in this movie will definitely grab your attention and make you laugh for sometime.. the comedy generated by the 2 actors is phenomenal and they are torch-bearers of the entire movie.. IT starts of well by a small and engaging love story.. Then the story develops in a main matter.. The chaos was perfectly maintained by the director.. humor till till the end of the movie has created some interest.. Vijay deverakonda as the producer of this film has wrapped the film in investing low budget.. the budget was comfortably used by the director and it can be easily recovered through box-office collections.. THE understanding between the actors was well-lit and we'll enjoy it somehow.. coming to the negatives.. the film opts to run on a single plot which keeps us boring sometimes.. there is a flaw in Tharun's acting also.. no doubt he has done a great job.. but he delivered a single expression throughout the movie.. he's very tensed character.. 10 to 12 minutes of cut will make the film racy and gripping.. the film is not for all the type of audience.. it's just for some people who can relate their life.. Overall Verdict - If you are really interested in encouraging the new comers.. watch this movie.. if you wanting some time pass elements in this film.. you can give a try..

Surprised that Vijay Devarkonda produced this movie and Tharun Bhasker agreed to this. Direction is absolutely ameture and acting is horrible except for Tarun and the guy who play's his friend.

Only reason which made me to watch the movie is 1. Tharun Bhasker and 2. The way Meme Makers where supported during the promotions (since being a meme maker i felt good although i wasnt interested in being a part of the promotions of movie which isnt worthy) trailer doesnt seemed interesting because of the plot of video getting leaked isnt much convincing. Prosuction values are average and lead actress vani bhojan was ok but after watching oh my kaduvuley i have become her fan. Music was good enough but the director has missed a point and twist what he felt is a twist didnt seemed really a twist since the intial discussion with tv channel manager by tharun basker was very matured where he spoken about taking sides and seemed balanced unlike the confusion he had through out the story. I felt the difference in his mindset before kamu started telling story and after in the behavior and thinking of tharun basker but couldnt guess the twist however. No strong emotion except few comedy situations and abhinav saved that part.

To start with, loved the premise, lots of Men would relate to it, and Women would rejoice this since a man is caught amidst chaos and trying hard to get out of it., which is total fun. The acting, cinematography and music, everything supports the flow of the film seamlessly. Writing and Direction, are top notch and even though it was publicized as a low budget movie, the production values were good. Must watch.
