Instead of creating a story out of thin air, sometimes the easiest way out is to take inspiration from your own life incidents. Not doubting Mr. Kammula's capabilities, but I wouldn't be surprised to know if it was an autobiography or at least a semi. In fact it wouldn't be wrong to state that "Happy Days" is biography of everyone one of us.
Characterisation:: Keeping the long story short, every character you see in "Happy Days" will be identifiable with each one of our classmates. Ditto for situations, very true to life. It is very difficult to pin-point one single character or one situation which stand out because "Happy Days" is fully-loaded.
Romantic track:: The lead pair get the slice of the pie. And its all about KISS ie. Keeping it Simple Stupid! No mushy-mushy stuff or an ode' to Maine Pyar Kiya (read that as "over the top").
The songs are soothing and blend in with the story quite well. Screenplay is good and the editor has made good use of the scissors to keep the narrative engrossing. "Happy Days" is sound from all technical fronts. Without a doubt Mr. Kammula, you hold the reigns well.
The success of "Happy Days" proves that the audience is yelling "ENOUGH!!" to the "old wine in the new bottle" intoxication techniques'. Treading the path unknown, thinking out of the box, executing with passion and conviction are the new buzzwords which will eventually find its way into the audience's heart.
PS: CBIT never looked "the enshrined temple" of knowledge until now.

Another mega hit of 2007. But this time, it's not about the villains, the power or anything else that normal Nagarjuna and Chiranjeevi movies have. It is instead in simple words: about college in Andhra Pradesh. It is about ragging, friends, and relationships during college. I think it is a wonderful idea in general to create a movie with good actors who portray life in college as a time which brings about so many new experiences, if they may be good or bad. However, I didn't buy the whole idea that they summed up your "happy days." I mean I think that a person's "happy days" cover a very broad span of memories and experiences throughout a lifetime, but not necessarily in four years of undergraduate college. One really good thing though is that throughout the movie, the characters develop friendship and love for each other that we as an audience learn to care about. And the characters are very different from each other. They're thankfully not a husky gang of macho young men. There's a geek, there's a party animal, there's a studious guy, etc. But what makes it all very fun, is that they're three-dimensional. We see the romance, the partying, the drama, and the education (to a certain extent). So Check out the movie and the songs "Oh my Friend" and "Arey." A pretty good movie.
A good movie which will make you feel nostalgic about your college life.
This is a great college Rom-Com really fun to watch, giving you flashback of your own university days. And the song 'O my friend' almost touched my heart :D
Sekhar Kammula has done a wonderful job in portraying college life in Andhra Pradesh. Nice story and cinematography, light-hearted movie with friendship and romance. This was the first Telugu movie that I had seen and I was pretty impressed. All the actors have portrayed their part really well, whether it be Tamanna, Varun Sandesh or the other actors. The music is amazing. If you haven't yet listened to the songs, do so. You ll fall in love with the album.
This is definitely one of the best college movies that I have seen, it may not have the big actors like 3 Idiots but still a very good watch. You would definitely like to watch it again.
