Ante Sundaraniki- Mixture of gags and lags
10 June 2022
Ante Sundaraniki translates to "seems Sundaram..." is a rom-com ,fun-filled ride,directed by Vivek Athreya, produced by Mythri Movie Makers and music scored by Vivek Sagar .Starring Nani as Sundar prasad and Nazriya as Leela Thomas in lead roles, supported by Naresh,Rohini, Azhalagam perumal,Nadiya, Harsha. And a special aboard which is a surprise. This movie is very different in its elements , when the context is very well known and if to present it is very easy, Vivek Athreya joins hands and makes it in a different way which is his significance. Talking about his previous directorial "brochevarevarura". Ante Sundaraniki follows the same template too. Not in the sense of content but of the screenplay. Can't say confusing ,but attracts very few and this is what makes the movie interesting as well as successful in reaching the minds of audiences.

Story and execution

Story penned by vivek focuses on a Brahmin orthodox family and a Christian family. Sundar Prasad who dreamt of becoming a hero ends up becoming an employee of a company. When Leela is added to his life how he meets her and what all interruptions they've faced to be one is the story ,which involves laughs, emotions etc. Also bringing back Nani to his original form is the major factor as he is known for his comedy timing, expressions etc. His innocence is seen throughout the movie. The scenes of Nani with actor harsha were hilarious. This was the crazy stuff added. Actor Naresh makes us laugh and emotional. The grandmother's role was the crazy creation. People will definitely connect to their ones. Nazriya maintained that cuteness throughout the movie. This makes the pair look lovable. Added soothing songs and bgms by Vivek Sagar is a plus point. Vivek sagar just mesmerized the audience. But coming to the duration of the movie it is lengthy and makes audience bored in some sequences, also the point I earlier said- the screenplay can only be satisfied by few people. I felt that some part of the movie doesn't contain the crisp to connect , although, audience who are mid aged can definitely relate to it. Actress Rohini's acting in the climax especially is the best . Hence, it's a film that can be watched by all.

Verdict

After watching the movies filled with violence, thrilling elements/ suspense, this movie refreshes you with its coolness. And takes you'll in their trance. While watching the movie, a smile will definitely be maintained by the audience .Therefore, Ante Sundaraniki is a film that can be watched with family and keeps you cool in this scorching heat.
