Story: Janaki Ram, (Rahul Venkat), son of an idealistic school teacher gets a government job and moves to the city. Disillusioned by the rampant corruption, he stands up to fight for the values instilled by his father.

Movie Review: It is a bizarre turn of events when the cinematography (which seems to have a huge Panjaa hangover about it) and music are more dramatic than the plot, and the narrative flow. To put it simply there is a gaping disconnect between the story and the story telling. In any case how differently can you tell the story of an underdog who rebels against an exploitative system? We've seen too many films with that plotline and even with a non-linear narrative there is hardly any element of surprise per se.

However, we can't fault the debutante filmmaker for not trying, although only partly succeeding in weaving an intense cinema experience. With grim lighting, immersive sound design and skillful camera work, the director creates an intense visual ambience. However, that nuance goes missing in the execution.

The protagonist, Janaki Ram is a reserved good guy who is brought up on staunch ideals in a far away village moves to Hyderabad after getting a job in the GHMC. He is appalled with the immoral ways of the city life. Janaki prevents a local goon, Maisa, from forcefully evacuating slum dwellers and earns his wrath. He soon finds himself framed in false corruption charges and his girlfriend, Chaitra (Anisha) dumps him unable to deal with his moral uprightness. On seeing the hapless slum dwellers being burnt alive by Maisa, he decides to retaliate, for the values he believes in. Then we have a happy ending.

There isn't the usual jingoism like gravity defying action episodes, forced comedy tracks (there is one redundant love track though), punch dialogues and stays reasonably realistic. But the film takes a typically over simplistic look at the whole idea of corruption. Neither does it offer any worthwhile insights into causes and effects of this collective moral degradation in the society at the story level. Neither does it offer any quirky solutions.

It takes the easy way out by playing to the messiah syndrome where we have this righteous Ram like character who goes though the proverbial "angipravesh" (trail by fire) to cleanse the society of it's ills, which is embodied by a menacing looking guy with dreadlocks. So zero points for any philosophical or intellectual integrity there. All the movie has to offer is good intentions. The acting is generally subdued. Rahul Venkat looks like Chiranjeevi in some profile shots, and does a reasonable job of breaking down into tears every now and then, but there isn't anything wow about the performance as such.

Anisha Ambrose has a vivacious screen presence but is just filling up the numbers here. She's the decorative ornament in an otherwise bleak effort. However, with better roles and capable directors, she would do much better. The rest of cast does an ok job. The music is easily the stand out.

Note: It's a little too loaded and preachy, besides some shallow intensity and noble intentions it has nothing much to offer.

Movie Review
It's a traumatic marital life for Vasu. The husband is more bothered about his mother and sister but the wife, who does all the household work, feels slightly, insulted, neglected and hurt. Not because she has to do all the work but because her husband is indifferent to her. Add to that the mother-in-law's attempts to play spoilsport. The result: Vasu trips.

Vasu (Asha Saini) has dreams. She's intelligent. Has dreams. And has business sense too. A school teacher, Vasu would have wanted to buy a two-wheeler instead of going in a bus and getting late to school too often but the husband punctures her plans. The man goes to the extent of even slapping her. In a communal riot where the couple are caught, the husband even runs away leaving the wife in a desperate situation.

Help comes in the form of her husband's brother (Ravi Babu) who thoroughly understands Vasu's predicament and comes to her aid. Vasu finds consolation in him but this leads to a physical relationship.

Vasu's husband who comes to know of this confronts her. Vasu accepts her mistake. But then, she decides to push her case and show who drove her into such a situation. She blames her husband's indifference and her brother-in-law taking advantage of her in a weak moment.

The film told in flashback also has Swetha Basu Prasad playing the daughter of Vasu. Saveri (Swetha) is brought up in Mumbai by her single mother and in dramatic circumstances has to tell her story in flashback.

At the best, the film's story as picturised is regressive. The Telugu novel `Anaithikam' penned by Yandamuri is the basis of the story and the movie could surely have done much more to elevate a woman who has been pushed into a difficult situation by circumstances. As mentioned in the introduction of the film, it could be a story that is acted out in the everyday life of many people but the film maker could have brought about a change in the attitude of the family members to become a solace to the victim.

With nothing of that sort shown, the film ends with perhaps a hope that Vasu's daughter would forgive her for her wrong doing. A victim of circumstances may need a helping hand but Vasu had to suffer only condemning eyes staring at her.

Note: You'll yawn
