valyriansteel-68349's rating
My rating for the entire series dropped significantly after watching season 3. Season 1 was top notch, Season 2 was watchable. Season 3 is utter trash with extremely boring and inconsequential sub plots. Pankaj tripathi has no presence, Shwetha bores you to death - she's the most unfit for the role in the entire series. With the unforgettable bad boy Munna's death in Season 2, macho man's Guddus role is wasted with petty scenes. Jail scenes with Guddus father are worth skipping entirely. Sarad Shukla character is total BS, he neither knows to act nor his role is interesting. The never ending CM/ political scenes have no meaning whatsoever. Last but not the least in terms of criticism, is the mega boring Bihari family with twins and a dwarf father make you hate this series so much that you longer want to wait for any more seasons ever. My rating was 9/10 until season 2. Season 3 is just a disappointment after waiting for so many years. We can call this once gem of a series good bye.
I grew up watching such movies and this feature film was one the best from SV Krishna Reddy direction. Not many directors have a grip on all crafts of moving making, but he is one of those multi talented directors who knew to compose melodious music also. One thing any modern directors can learn from him is the pleasant language used in the movie with meaningful analogies and adding cultural values in screenplay. There were many occasions in the movie where a character could have gone overboard, be it Srikanth not behaving selfish with the old lady, Suhasini handling a pervert husband, JD Chakravarthy compromising after reflecting on his naive aggressive behavior and so on. But the director handles it subtly with dignity. The music of this movie was the ultimate selling point for audience to rush to the theatres. Kudos to the makers of true Telugu cinema back in the 90s. You don't need high production values for a meaningful cinema, just impactful story and music is good enough.
One of the hidden gems for sure. Every single actor has performed incredibly well. Excellent example to show happiness is in enjoying simple things in life. This movie is full of love and affection. People who complain and crib about everything cannot find love anywhere. People who care for others always find love in almost everything. There's very little plot but it's a joyful emotional ride. It will remind us of our innocent childhood especially if you are an 80s or 90s kid. Director of this movie is a monk who knows true value of life. Vijay sethupathi is a fantastic actor and kudos to entire team for creating heart touching cinema. Lovely movie!
