Atharintiki Daaredi Movie Review by Chaitanya Kumar Vummethala

Atharintiki Daaredi, I have watched this  movie on first day first show (I mean special show at 8:15 AM on Friday, 27th September 2013 - at Aravind Theatre, Chennai). 

Due to some serious decisions and professional commitment, I had to stop blogging for sometime! But I could not resist myself in writing about Power Star Pawan Kalyan's movie, Atharintiki Daaredi. That's how this is becoming my first movie review post on my blog, in this calendar year!!

Just to mention in a single line - Atharintiki Daaredi is an expected range wholesome entertainer from Jalsa team, that entertains every movie lover, with all the required ingredients rightly placed in it. Specially I need to mention about Nadhia, Samantha, Prasad Murella, Rao Ramesh, DSP, Trivikram and Boman Irani etc., for their best contribution to this fabulous success. 

As it was a FDFS, I could not able to grasp everything to judge the movie range and expand on this, just in my first observation (I was among the power fans who were at full swing). So will elaborate more on my review after my second watch....until then please enjoy the below pictures:

Krishnam Vande Jagadgurum & Genius Movie Reviews by Chaitanya Kumar Vummethala

After watching more than two thousand telugu movies, I have decided not to comment too much on movies. Thus this revolution of cut-shorting my reviews on telugu movies. Having said that, I would continue sharing my appreciations to the talented technicians and artists - those who add value to the industry standards.

Two among such subjects are the current topic of discussion, they are Radhakrishna Jagarlamudi's (popularly known as Krish) Krishnam Vande Jagadgurum & Omkar's Genius! Undoubtedly both the movies have amazingly creative thoughts and came out as brave attempts from the above mentioned gentlemen (two directors), of course with the support from their masters called Sirivennela Seetharama Sastry for Krish and Chinni Krishna for Omkar.

Immediately to start elaborating my views on each of these movies, separately - I have chosen the below style:

My personal view on Krishnam Vande Jagadgurum:

This movie is a brilliant thought and attempt that is excellently narrated by the director without any confusion, but he had to face few hiccups in injecting the actual intend of the theme into the common audience due to the sensitivity involved in the subject itself (about the presence of god). My perception in understanding the message in this movie is that, the meaning of the god is to help fellow human beings when they are in real need and sorrow.

Value Additions:

1) Subject, Narration and Theme

2) Music by Mani Sarma

3) Lyrics by Sirivennela Seetharama Sastry (specially Jaruguthunnadi Jagannaatakam)

4) Emotional Performances by each and every artist

5) Dialogues by Sai Madhav Burra (like Devudantey Saayam etc.,)

6) Twist in the story with a fresh idea

Pitfalls:

1) Casting mis-match (Nayanatara & Rana)

2) Lack of clarity in conclusion (at least for a common audience)

My Overall Rating for KVJ - 3.25 / 5

Click Read More to know
My personal view on Genius (Telugu Movie by Omkar):

Krishnam Vande Jagadgurum - Lyrics - a Masterpiece

Watched this movie (KVJ) twice in the last couple of weeks, but I could not able to understand the depth of director's vision (thus my review is not yet posted)! However I felt that the Screenplay by Krish, Artists Performances (especially Rana's) are highly appreciable while the "Music by Mani Sharma Garu, Voice of Shri SP Balasumaniam and Shri Sirivennela Seetharama Sastry's Lyrics" combined together is the heart of this movie - Krishnam Vande Jagadgurum.

So please listen to his words in the below video clip, and then further go down to find the masterpiece lyrics - the all time best of SSSS (Shri Sirivennela Seetharama Sastry)....

 

Denikaina Ready Movie Review by Chaitanya Kumar Vummethala

Denikaina Ready is my second movie in the October month, after Cameraman Gangatho Rambabu (a trimmed and incomplete version which was exhibited in Vyjayanthi Theatre). So followed by the great disappointment (because of stupid and psychic telangana issue on CGR Movie) it was a good relief to the Nizam film lovers as well as to the industry in the form of a Dhenikaina Ready success. So let us digg into this topic of movie review and discuss why this movie has listed in the HIT movies of 2012.

Vishnu Manchu who was in a crunch has come out with good colors this time with a comedy flavored movie, which was a good choice at this situation. The technical talent of this movie is an additional advantage and crucial for the actor to taste the success after long time.

Life is Beautiful Movie Review by Chaitanya Kumar Vummethala

A movie can be sensible and beautiful only with a brilliant and intellectual team of technicians and most importantly, the visionary Director and Script Writer. Coming to the  "Life is Beautiful" its a movie made with a specific intention and the captain proved his skill of turning simple things more beautiful once again with this flick. Though most of the reviewers are speaking rave about this movie, I personally liked the movie exceptionally good for many reasons (mentioned below) and rate Mr. Kammula's latest project with high marks. 

Let us see why is this conclusion come from me....... It may be Dollar Dreams, Anand, Godavari, Happy Days or Leader and now Life is Beautiful - Sekhar Kammalu is always climbing high by selecting and making different kind of movies. He inspired and influenced me with his every flick and made me a great fan of his. It is very easy to comment on a technician's work but is highly difficult to shot a scene and coordinate with all the 24 frames, to make it beautiful.

Onamalu Movie Review by Chaitanya Kumar Vummethala

Onamalu is the combination of the legendary actor "Nata Kireeti" Dr. Rajendra Prasad's selection interest of such a thought proviking subject and the Director, Kranthi Madhav's sincere effort and divine attempt for changing the current living system at our villages (People forgetting the basic roots, moral values and are running behind false prestiges with a wrong impression that they are advancing in the modern life)!

Story, Screenplay, Direction: Kranthi Madhav, is exceptional debut director with a great sense of social responsibility and this can be easily seen in his movie - "Onamalu". While the meaning of present day cinema is the mixture of commercial elements that will en-thrill and entertain the common audience, this brave director has come up with an exceptionally admirable and appreciable subject. This mass communications masters degree holder must have missed in attracting masses to the theatres, but the target audience will never forget this daring master for this master piece!

Story Coordination: Thammudu Satyam in words of the director Kranthi Madhav - "Since Onamalu deals with human relationships and I am too young, I need somebody whose experience can add depth to the story. That is where Tammudu Satyam stepped in. He has brought his rich experience to this story. The story I have narrated to Rajendra Prasad has completely transformed into a better one with the involvement of Tammudu Satyam".

Dialogues: Khadeer Babu once again proved that he is a sensible dialogue writer with an indepth knowledge and understanding on the subject. He described the importance of dialogues for a message oriented movie with his work in Onamalu, which will pierce directly into the hearts of many sensible audiences. One can learn the meaning of unity in diversity through his dialogues. 

Music: Koti has all that required skill to elevate the scene with the power called music and is definitely lucky enough to get such brilliant subject once again. Koti  has provided amazing background score for Onamalu along with soothing music for the sensible lyrics penned by Sirivennela Seetharama Sastry Garu.

Eega Movie Review by Chaitanya Kumar Vummethala

Creative Genius Rajamouli has passed his 10th Movie with distinction and proved once again that he is technically brilliant and highly talented!! 



Story, Screenplay, Direction: SS Rajamouli, who started his career in 2001 with Student No.1 did not tasted failure in his 10 Movie career even after 11 years (i.e., even in 2012).

The basic reason for this is that he prepares well (extensively well) for his script and the entire movie - scene by scene and if possible frame by frame. His vision towards the final output before start of shoot and after finishing the post-production will be the same and there will be no much changes (the project might end up with much more positive highlights, but not with mistakes or negative changes). Coming to Eega, Rajamouli intelligently started narrating the story in a much realistic way - i.e., a father telling the story to his daughter.... This made every critic shut their mouth and stopped their hands in writing negative word about Eega movie. The very reason for mentioning about the above line is that the movie is full of fiction and every scene has a flaw (if we treat the movie as a regular movie). But these days any commercial movie is filled with flaws and the way Eega taken off was mind-blowing and makes a lot of sense.

Eega - Telugu Movie - Live Updates (Detailed)

The So Called "Director of Technical Brilliance - SS Rajamouli" (who never saw a flop in his career of 10 Movies since 2001) is arriving with a huge bang tomorrow as Eega!! The movie is as usual releasing all over the world to grab the attention of world audience.. Lets see if he has still maintained the standards of Magadheera or crossed that mark with this flick. Hope this "Jakkanna" will stand proud as a crucial member of tollywood even with his 10th movie, just wait for another 24 hours or so for the final review.

With the inspiration from "Gabbar Singh Live Updates" (my first live updates post), now I wanted to repeat the same with Eega's Live Updates on my blog tomorrow (but for the matinee show, as I always believe that FDFS will never tell us the actual range of the movie due to the Fans Hangama).....

So please stay tuned with this page......for Eeeega Updates!!

Gabbar Singh Movie Review by Chaitanya Kumar Vummethala

If one wants to know about the Original Power of Power Star Pawan Kalyan and his stamina of highest crowd pulling capability (to theatres all over the world, irrespective of talk & actual content etc.,) then they want to read this review...... because "He is special".

Pawan Kalyan, the name it self is the biggest kick for an average movie lover and if his movie gets unanimously positive talk all over from the world on the day one, then it is the biggest festival for movie buffs especially when it is summer! Gabbar Singh is one such movie with a full fledged entertaining elements placed most appropriately to full-fill the actual intention of the audience, that is entertainment at its best.

But who are the people behind this successful outcome? and what are the main reasons behind this huge response from audience of all sections? My analysis and review on this discussion can be read below: - 

Dhammu Movie Review by Chaitanya Kumar Vummethala

After two consecutive flops (Shakthi & Oosaravelli) - NTR Jr. wanted to choose a perfect script for his next movie that should bring back his glory in tollywood and thus choose his favorite genre script, Dhammu. The young actor was pretty confident about scoring a big success to join the 40Cr+ Club / Top Five Earners - with this flick, but let us see how the movie is actually faring!

Screenplay & Direction: Boyapati Seenu, the four (4) movie young director has some rare talents of directing scenes extra-ordinarily, but as he is still young in the field needs to learn varied topics of highlighting the subject and theme as a whole while canning some brilliant scenes - which would then finally appreciated by the audiences. His efforts of pleasing big stars like Ravi Teja, Venkatesh, Bala Krishna & NTR Jr., with his subjects and scripts is simply appreciable, but the way he shapes out the final product is not so absolute perfect. Having described about his qualities, Boyapati again chose the same theme as of his previous movies (Mass-Action) once again for Dhammu.

Racha Movie Review by Chaitanya Kumar Vummethala

After a debacle (Orange) - Ram Charan Tej - the Magadheera S/o. Magadheerudu of tollywood, took his time to come back with a bang (Racha) this summer to entertain the movie lovers (especially the mass audience). Let us see how he managed to impress the cinegoers with the 2 movie director Sampath Nandi as the captain of the ship..

Until the movie - Racha announced no one knows who Sampath Nandi is (though he already worked for a small budget movie as his debut directorial film). But this time it is a wonderful opportunity for him to prove his capability of handling such a huge project. Both Charan and Sampath worked hard for Racha with a zeal to taste a much desired success to move forward in their careers - and now to know, how Racha has shaped up - Read More!

Ishq Movie Review by Chaitanya Kumar Vummethala

Nitin with a decade of his acting experience, have seen many flops and few hits out of his 18 Movies. On 14th June 2002, the actor's first movie Jayam (Directed by Teja) released and was proved as a huge box-office hit. His second movie Dil (Directed by VV Vinayak) was also a big hit followed by a flop movie Sambaram (but remained as a sincere attempt by the Director Dasarath) and then tasted a sensational hit Sye (Directed by SS Rajamouli) which has helped in proving himself as a bankable star. 

But unfortunately there was not even a single HIT for him after SS Rajamouli's Sye (which was released on 23rd September 2004 i.e., almost 7 and a half years back), though his immediate movie Sri Anjaneyam (Directed by Krishna Vamsi) brought him some recognition as a good actor the movie failed to collect monies. The next 12 Movies of Nitin were also resulted as "Flop to Above Average Movies". This time Nitin chose to come up with a wonderful team as a lead actor in "ISHQ - a Smashing Hit" after 13 movies long wait. His hard work and sincerity paid off with this flick!

Now let us see what made this movie a biggest hit in Nitin's career?

Rajanna Movie Review by Chaitanya Kumar Vummethala

Rajanna is the last big budget movie of the year came with huge expectations due to the presence of Rajamouli, supporting his father in the action episodes of the movie.

Story, Dialogues, Screenplay & Direction:  Vijayendra Prasad, being the father of 100% successful director (Rajamouli) certainly work on pressure for his prestigious project like Rajanna especially when he is directing a big star like Nagarjuna. The story-line prepared by Mr. Prasad with suitable punch dialogues (matching the theme) was really good and have the standards of becoming a land mark movie in the history of tollywood. He had taken enough care on extracting performances from the baby (Annie) and the music director (Keeravani) among other technical departments such as cinematography team, dialogues and action episodes (by Rajamouli).

Panjaa, a stylish movie with a sensitive story line - Chaitanya Kumar Vummethala

Most are saying the story is not up to the mark, few are saying story is not meant for Pawan Kalyan, and few others are saying that there is a quite resemblance in the story with that of Balu. Box-Office Collections says that the movie is not going to become a HIT! But Just to interpret and express my views on the movie, Panjaa HIT me hard and I enjoyed watching it! May be Panjaa does not have lot of commercial aspects in it but technically its a brilliant effort and especially Pawan Kalyan's performance was at top notch! 

When he chose script for Gudumba Shankar (which has enough comedy in it) people did not liked it!

When he chose Annavaram (which has enough sentiment in it) people did not connected to it!

When he selected Bangaram & Puli (both have enough emotion) people did not accepted them!

And finally, when Panjaa is out they start comparing it with Balu! I strictly oppose that statement because the story of Panjaa goes like this:

Theme: 
Sahaayam Chesinavaadiki Kruthagnatha Choopinchakapovadam Entha Thappo... Sahaayam Chesinavaadu Kruthagnatha Korukovadam Koodaa Anthey Thappu! 

Pawan Kalyan's Panjaa - Movie Talk

Some say Movie is for entertainment, and few say Movie is a passionate art!

After listening to many of my friends, cousins and colleagues - my view on the movie, Panjaa is as follows: 

As far as Panjaa is concerned the makers of it have made it with full of conviction towards their passion and in a most stylish way with high technical values by covering excellent locations, but failed considering complete set of commercial elements in it. 

The Movie is made with rich classy look as a stylish action entertainer (basic idea), but what's actually lagging is - the script and the screenplay including comedy episodes, mass elements such as powerful introduction of hero, full length songs with beautiful heroines and powerful punch dialogues etc., - which are the vital aspects for a commercial blockbuster hit. 

Background Music and Re-Recording by Yuvan are excellent, but the placement of songs are uttered it seems! As per the sources, Comedy track is also missing through out the film and dialogues by Mr. Ravi paled out.

I don't want to comment further on the movie until I personally watch it!

As usual, Pawan Kalyan Movies will have divide talk on the day one of its release. This time it has further came down and ruled out the option of hit talk (one should forget about blockbuster from Pawan Kalyan with Panjaa). 

Keeping all this aside, please keep visiting this space for the 2nd day talk and my very own analysed review on Panjaa! 

Pawan Kalyan's Panjaa, a sure shot blockbuster

Pawan Kalyan's Panjaa is hitting screens worldwide on 9th December 2011 as a sure shot blockbuster this time. Just watched few making videos and other trailers of Panjaa, it has every ingredient to entertain the audience and register as a blockbuster hit of the decade. Producers of the movie just started the promotion work and would have to do this for a long time now! After so many days - tollywood will witness a 25 week (175 days) movie in the form of Panjaa - Pawan Kalyan, Vishnu Vardhan and his entire team are pretty confident on the outcome, just need to wait another 4 days.

Congratulations to the makers of Panjaa, for making the most powerful movie with Power Star Pawan Kalyan!
