Bommarillu

I don't always have much use for "cute," as it often dribbles over into "cutesy," but this movie had almost the perfect amount of cute. Siddharth won my mind and sympathy in _Rang De Basanti_, one of the best movies ever made by anyone, anywhere. Here he made me giggle and relive the giddiness of new affection.

It took me a little while to warm up to Genelia D'Souza, but her character was so flawlessly, honestly bubbly that her enthusiasm became contagious.

The movie includes a plea for honoring traditions and taking them into account while also allowing for change. It urges balance and moderation on everyone's part.

My high school students read _Romeo and Juliet_. This year, I plan to show a brief clip of _Bommarillu_ to show the widespread knowledge of those characters and to make the point that arranged marriages are neither a thing of the past nor a way for parents to punish the young adults in their lives.

I'm glad I bought this movie (an original copy---no bootlegs for me!); I will watch it frequently.

A very beautiful story with a lots of comedy. I went for the movie just to kill some time. But what I got was a nostalgic happiness.

The movie is basically a simple story of a over protective rich father and a modern day son who wants to be happy with self-dependence. When son wants a simple T-shirt, the father gives him a Louis Philippe shirt. In the course the son looses his individuality.

This is a very emotional movie, but never lost its pace because of the sublime comedy. Siddharth's acting was excellent. Prakash Raj was good in the role of the father. Frankly speaking, I hated the acting of Genelia. The dubbing for her was the worst.

I truly enjoyed this movie.

A beautiful film. This is one film which you can watch with your family and find everyone loving it. You won't find dance in rain sequences or hero fighting with 50 well built men or anything generally associated with Telugu cinema. Everything about the film is beautiful (starting with Genelia) and you will definitely want to watch this film over and over again. Telugu cinema has sure come off age!!!

Siddarth's acting is great and Genelia is really amazing. She looks almost perfect. Her character (Hassini) is one of the most bubbliest characters I have seen for a long time in a cinema. Genelia will make you fall for her. Prakash raj as usual does his role with ease and poise playing the over-protective father. Background music is excellent and the songs especially Ippudo, eppudo is superb. great work by Devi Sri Prasad.

Enough of reading this and watch the film. Its a MUST SEE.

Bommarillu is dressed to the nine's with novelties that makes it tick... and boy o boy - they work big time! Presentation is the key differentiator, otherwise the story is a tried & tested formula in Indian cinema since the medium itself.

Siddharth: After Rang De, the expectations run high and he does surpass them. Consistent performer indeed.

Genelia: An apt choice and has all the coy looks to carry the role effortlessly. Very promising.

Prakash Raj: Luckily he does not succumb to reprising "I care a hoot about the camera" attitude. Hence the restrained performance works for the movie playing the "I decide for you" father.

Jaya Sudha:: Small role but effective.

Kota, Subramaniam Dharmavarapu, Suneel, Brahmanandam & Tanikella Bharani:: Adequate

Songs are hummable. Foreign locales are beautiful and Hyderabad never looked so appealing!!

Bhaskar the director:: Our "Da man" has mastered the 4-P's of marketing spot-on.

PS: Last time the tag-line "Love makes life beautiful...." was used in Mahesh Bhatt's "Aashiqui " 1990.

The movie is Simply awesome... U r gonna love it...

Siddharth and Genelia do not fail to Keep the mood of the movie high all the time... Both are well suited for the characters they portray and both have done justice to it...

Now coming to the story... Sidhu(Siddharth) is the son of a rich businessman Aravind(Prakash Raj)... Aravind Loves his son and is over protective of him... sidhu finds this hard to accept , but his love for his father prevents him from informing this ... Aravind decides everything for Sidhu including wat he wears n how to eat... Sidhu decides that at least in 2 aspects of his life he'll take his own decision-one choosing his life partner n another his work... But one day his father decides a bride for him... Sidhu is reluctant to marry her n hence informs his father bout it.. when asked for the reason for his reluctance he fails to give a proper one.. Aravind asks weather he is in love with anyone,to which Sidhu replies in negative...following which Sidhu gets engaged to Subbalakshmi(Neha)... once engaged, Sidhu finds his perfect match in Hasini(Genelia)... now he displays more audacity and tells about his new found love to his father... So his father asks him to get Hasini to house so that they could get acquainted with her... Hasini lies to her father of going to a trip n starts living in Sidhu's house to win the heart of his family... Climax is as expected... a happy ending...

Genelia is an Eye candy... no questions can be raised against Prakash raj's acting... Songs are melodious... All in all the movie is a must watch.
