FIDAA TELUGU MOVIE MOVIE
Though the dialogues mouthed by Sai Pallavi may not be easily comprehended in Andhra and Rayalaseema areas, they in fact sparkle with wit.Īll in all, "Fidaa" is a niche film that works with movie lovers who seek realistic love stories and can bear slow pace. The biggest striking point of the movie is realistic portrayal of village, characters and conversations. We get a feeling that the misunderstanding scene should have had a stronger reason. The hate moments are not that impressive. But the love moments are lovely to some extent. The scene of Sai Pallavi coming to a party in modern dress is good too.Īll through the film, we see love and hate, hate and love sequences.
Yet, moments like Varun Tej expressing his love towards her during their car journey and asking her to be a friend at least make an impression. Sekhar Kammula has included some heavy and dull situations post interval and that sort of drags on the story. From here, the movie loses its pace and the fun element also wears off. Once the intermission happens with the misunderstanding between the two lovers, the story shifts to the US. Entire first half of the movie is so cool and heart-warming. There are not any moments or scenes that we haven't seen before, but the realistic handling makes all the difference. Sekhar Kammula begins the movie in a shaky manner, but the romance of Sai Pallavi and Varun Tej take us into the story. She is not what can term a conventional beauty (she has acne on her face), but the girl-next-door looks and killer performance wins over. Her performance is the single major attraction of this movie that has some strong notes, some dull moments. Her attitude, her dialogues, her idealistic nature is likable to the core.Īnd luckily, Sekhar Kammula found a perfect heroine for his character in the form of Sai Pallavi. The characterisation of Bhanumathi is different. What he has done this time is telling a story with a spirited young woman called Bhanumathi, who claims to be 'single piece', as there is none like her. "Fidaa" has his trademark story of two youngsters finding love in love-hate-love cycle, but this time the backdrop is rural Telangana and USA. Hence he has gone back to his roots - telling simple love stories with a strong female character. Sekhar Kammula's recent movies like "Life Is Beautiful" and "Anamika" have failed to strike a note with the audiences. Production values by Dil Raju are first rate. He has filmed both rural Telangana and USA locations beautifully.Įditing work doesn't impress much as pace of movie is quite slow. Next technician that deserves pat on the shoulder is Vijay Kumar. Except "Vacchinde", rest come as montage songs. Music director Shakthikanth Karthick has come up with three good songs - "Vacchinde", "Edo Avuthondi" and "Oosupodu" but the songs are not filmed properly. Sharanya Pradeep as Sai Pallavi's sister and Raja have done decent job as well. Sai Chand as heroine’s father and Sathyam Rajesh are good. Quite impressive that she got the Telugu language with Telangana dialect so perfectly. She has terrific screen presence and her performance is quite believable. The story is more about Bhanumathi, played by Sai Pallavi, than Varun.Īnd in the role of Bhanumathi, debutante Sai Pallavi (who played the role of lecturer in Malayalam's Premam) steals the show. Though it is a love story, it is the heroine who gets complete dominance.
Will they fall in love this time? Does the story end on happier note?
Months later, Bhanumathi comes to USA to see her pregnant sister.
Though he likes her, she hates him for some incident. They get attracted to each other and start finding out about themselves.ĭue to a misunderstanding, they part ways on a bad note. Varun (Varun Tej), a NRI, lands in rural village in Telangana to attend the wedding ceremony of his brother (Raja) and meets Bhanumathi (Sai Pallavi), the bride's sister. Find out if Kammula has come back to form or not. The recently released trailer and the soothing melodies coupled with Sai Pallavi's charm raised expectations on the film. Sekhar Kammula, the director of classic hits such as "Anand" and "Happy Days", has returned to the genre of love stories after a long gap. Cast: Varun Tej, Sai Pallavi, Sai Chand, Raja, Satyam Rajesh, Sharanya Pradeep and others
