Featured review
There was a time, especially in south India when heroine oriented films meant a long suffering heroine shedding oceans of tears, praying to countless gods to end her misery and finally alls well and ends well. Thanks to new age heroines and new age directors, this concept of debauched heroine oriented films have come to an end, and given rise to a new era of heroine oriented films where the heroine picks a cause and fights a relentless battle against it.
SIZE ZERO is one such movie which fights against a very dangerous business concept which has weeded itself and spreading its tentacles. The message is told in clear manner and hits it mark as the whole conceptualization is in a light hearted manner with a flawless performance by Anushka Shetty.
Soundarya aka Sweety (Anushka Shetty) is an obese female obsessed with weighing machines and fortune cookies. She is friends with her colleague Jyothi (Pavani Gangireddy) who is preparing for a miss India contest and enrolls herself in a weight loss clinic run by Satyanand (Prakash Raj). Jyothi often advises Sweety to enroll too, but Sweety does not believe in unnatural methods of losing weight. Sweety's mother (Urvashi) is off the rocker as her daughter is not getting married as all her matches go down the drain because of her weight.
Sweety has a crush on Abhishekh (Arya) a documentary film maker who is a fitness freak and as luck would have it, Abhishekh is already going steady with Simran (Sonal Chauhan) a drop dead gorgeous NRI. Shattered by this revelation, Sweety comes to the conclusion, that her romance failed because of her weight and enrolls herself into the weight loss clinic.
Disasaster strikes, when Jyothi collapses during a routine weight loss exercise and is diagnosed with liver damage, a direct result of the illegal weight loss drugs administered by the clinic. Sweety decides to take upon the clinic and bring it down and helping her is a rich business man Shekhar (Adivi Sesh) who is besotted by her.
The movie totally belongs to Anushka, who has put on oodles of weight for this role and her comic timing is perfect. She is good in the comic as well as the emotional scenes.
Arya is decent as the documentary filmmaker confused between his love of simran and friendship with Sweety. He holds his own even in scenes where Anushka is the obvious showstopper.
Prakash Raj hams his way through as usual, it is getting boring to watch him with the same expressions over and over again.
Sonal Chauhan's role is as skimpy as her outfits and manages to give us a guessing game as to what her expressions actually mean, she has the same expression when oozing oomph, when she is sad, and when she is happy.
Screenplay by Kanika Dhillon is excellent, the comic sequences are well timed into the narrative and scenes free flow.
We can forgive Prakash Kovalemudi for Anaganaga O Dheerudu,and thank him for giving us a movie like SIZE ZERO. The direction is perfect and though he relied on some unnecessary scenes involving Ali and a Little over the top item dance by an overweight Anushka Shetty, the movie is entertaining enough for the whole family barring one or two naughty dialogs by the lead actress.
I would recommend it to anyone looking for a different fare and also have a hearty laugh at the same time.
