Editing: Naveen Nooli



Producer: B.V.S.N. Prasad



Release Date: November 8, 2024



The latest film ‘Appudo Ippudo Eppudo’ features young hero Nikhil, directed by Sudheer Varma, known for films like ‘Swamy Ra Ra’ and ‘Keshava.’ Produced by B.V.S.N. Prasad and presented by B. Bapineedu, Rukmini Vasanth plays the lead actress, with Divyansha Kaushik in a key role. The film hit theaters on November 8. How does it fare? Does it captivate the Telugu audience? Has it brought success to Nikhil? Let’s find out in this review.







Story



Rishi (Nikhil), from Hyderabad, is a carefree young man with little interest in his career. He falls for Tara (Rukmini Vasanth) at first sight. However, due to certain dramatic events, their love ends in a breakup. After the heartbreak, Rishi shifts his focus to his career and moves to London. There, he trains as a racer while taking up odd jobs for pocket money. During this time, he becomes close to Tulasi (Divyansha Kaushik) and even decides to marry her. But Tulasi suddenly goes missing. Meanwhile, Tara, the girl he once loved, unexpectedly shows up in London, and Rishi finds himself entangled with a local don, Badrinarayana (John Vijay). Who is Badrinarayana? What happened to Tulasi? Why did Tara come to London? To find out, you’ll have to watch the movie.







Performances



Hero Nikhil captivates as usual with his steady performance, entertaining the audience with his looks and comic timing, though there are no particularly striking moments in his role. Rukmini Vasanth impresses with her natural acting, skillfully expressing emotions and proving herself as a talented actress once again. Divyansha Kaushik shines in her role as Tulasi, a character with negative shades, and receives good marks for her looks and glamour. Comedian Harsha Chemudu’s timing brings laughs, while John Vijay and Ajay’s roles are average. Satya and Sudarshan add momentum to the storyline.







Direction



Director Sudheer Varma opted for a routine story for ‘Appudo Ippudo Eppudo’ but managed to infuse his mark through storytelling and screenplay. Notably, he introduces the story from the perspective of a third person (comedian Satya), which adds interest. However, the two love tracks between the hero and heroines feel tedious. The introduction of the hero and his first love track make the first half feel slow, while the second half is somewhat better. The director struggles with key scenes, and the twists reveal poorly. Nevertheless, he manages to keep the film afloat to some extent with the comedy of Harsha Chemudu, Satya, and Sudarshan. The film lacks commercial appeal, and weak action sequences are additional drawbacks.







Technically



In terms of technical work, Richard Prasad’s cinematography is good, while Karthik’s songs are average. The background score is passable, editing is adequate, and the production values match the story well.

This Week’s OTT &amp;  Telugu Movie Releases (7th &amp; 8th Nov)!


Telugu cinema's young heroes are being particularly careful with their choice of scripts, showing interest only if the story offers something new. Otherwise, they unhesitatingly reject routine stories, setting an example that even veterans like Nagarjuna, Venkatesh, Ravi Teja, Ram Pothineni, Nithiin, and Gopichand could take note of. Young actor Suhas is soon to appear in a unique story titled 'Gorre Puranam'. This backdrop has reignited discussions about the innovative subjects young heroes are choosing. Who are these young heroes bringing new stories to life? What movies have they done? Let's delve into this special report.



Suhas



Starting with minor roles in the industry, Suhas became famous almost overnight with the movie 'Colour Photo'. Building on the fame from his short films, he seized opportunities in cinema. He earned good recognition from the audience by acting in diverse films like 'Writer Padmabhushan', 'Ambajipeta Marriage Band', 'Sriranga Neethulu', and 'Prasanna Vadanam'. Moreover, he made an impact as a villain in the movie 'HIT 2'. Recently, he's gearing up to present another novel subject with 'Gorrepuranam', releasing this Friday (September 20).







Teja Sajja



Starting as a child actor, Teja Sajja transitioned to a lead role with 'Zombie Reddy'. Despite his first film establishing him as hero material, subsequent diverse films like 'Ishq' and 'Adbhutham' did not earn much fame. However, he achieved a solid hit nationally with 'Hanuman', directed by Prasanth Varma. This success resonated well, enhancing Teja Sajja's reputation. Currently, he's involved in another pan-India film titled 'Miraya', where Manchu Manoj plays the villain. The already released teaser of 'Miraya' has raised expectations.







Nikhil Siddhartha



Nikhil Siddhartha grabbed everyone’s attention with 'Happy Days'. Post that film, he continued to captivate the youth with solo hero films. His journey includes significant roles in films like 'Swamy Ra Ra', 'Karthikeya', 'Surya vs Surya', 'Ekkadiki Pothavu Chinnavada', and 'Karthikeya 2', establishing him as a reliable hero. Currently, he's part of the historical film 'Swayambhu', produced by Ram Charan, and also 'Karthikeya 3' is in his lineup.







Vishwak Sen



Vishwak Sen, known among the youth as a mass hero, has been careful to ensure diversity in his films from the start. His initial movie 'Vellipomakey' didn't make a big splash, but 'Ee Nagaraniki Emaindi' brought him significant youth following. Following that, 'Falaknuma Das', a mass action drama, secured another success. His roles in 'HIT', 'Paagal', 'Ashoka Vanamlo Arjuna Kalyanam', 'Ori Devuda', 'Das Ka Dhamki', 'Gaami', and 'Gangs of Godavari' further cemented his status as a star in Telugu cinema. Currently, he's involved in 'Mechanic Rocky' and 'Laila', where his appearance in a lady getup in 'Laila' is noteworthy.







Adivi Sesh



Adivi Sesh initially appeared in a minor role in the movie 'Sontham' led by Aryan Rajesh. His breakout role as a hero was in 'Karma'. He gained recognition as a villain in Pawan Kalyan’s 'Panjaa'. With important roles in 'Run Raja Run', 'Baahubali', and a series of diverse films like 'Kshanam', 'Goodachari', 'Evaru', 'Major', and 'HIT 2', Adivi Sesh transformed into a reputable hero. Especially with 'Major', his market reach significantly expanded. He's currently working on the sequel to 'Goodachari', expected to be a pan-India release, poised to further boost his career if successful.







Siddhu Jonnalagadda



Starting with a role in Naga Chaitanya’s debut 'Josh', Siddhu Jonnalagadda didn't see much career growth despite diverse roles in movies like 'Bheemili Kabaddi Jattu', 'Orange', and 'Guntur Talkies'. However, he struck blockbuster success with 'DJ Tillu', and its sequel continued this trend. The sequel, 'Tillu Square', notably grossed ₹135 crore. He is currently acting in 'Jack' and 'Telusu Kada', with 'Tillu Cube' also in the pipeline.







Narne Nithiin



Junior NTR’s brother-in-law, Narne Nithiin made his debut with the youthful entertainer 'MAD', which was a success at the box office and connected well with the youth due to its college backdrop. His subsequent film 'Aay', set in a village backdrop, showcased his diversity and was also successful. After a subdued presence in 'MAD', Nithiin’s performance in 'Aay' was much improved, excelling in acting, dance, and comedy, and effectively conveying emotions.

Written and Directed by: C. Prem Kumar



Music by: Govind Vasantha



Cinematography: Mahendran Jayaraju



Editing by: R. Govind Raju



Produced by: Jyothika, Suriya



Release Date: 28-09-2024



In the C. Prem Kumar directorial, starring Tamil star hero Karthi who previously delighted audiences with feel-good movies like '96', the film titled 'Meiyazhagan' in Tamil, has been brought to the Telugu audience as 'Satyam Sundaram'. Aravind Swamy plays a pivotal role in this film, which is notably produced under the banner of 2D Entertainment by Suriya and Jyothika. Released today (September 28), how does this film fare? Did it manage to impress the audience? Let's delve into the review.



What's the Story



Satyam (Aravind Swamy), hailing from Guntur, leaves his home and village due to property disputes and relocates to Visakhapatnam. After 30 years, a situation arises requiring him to return to his village for his niece’s wedding. Upon his return, Satyam reconnects with a relative (Karthi) at the wedding. Calling each other 'Bava' (brother-in-law), they bond over numerous conversations. Initially irritated by Karthi’s intrusive manners, Satyam eventually warms up to his affection and admiration. What turns does their journey take? How does Satyam rediscover himself through this journey? What is the nature of his relationship with the person he calls 'Bava'? Does he finally remember his name, or not? That forms the rest of the story.







How Did They Perform



Aravind Swamy perfectly embodies Satyam, taking us along on his journey through his remarkable performance. We feel every emotion that Satyam experiences, from his pain to his discomfort. Karthi charms once again with his innocence, captivating as a typical young man from a village showing boundless love. This role will be remembered as a highlight in Karthi’s career. Devadarshini, playing the wife of Aravind Swamy, delivers a commendable performance. Having previously only played comedic and supporting roles, she proves her ability to handle a role with depth with ease. Srividya, Rajkiran, and Jayaprakash, although in minor roles, significantly impact the story. The rest of the cast performed well within their roles.







Direction



The director, C. Prem Kumar, attempts to convey that for a person to live happily, the presence of a loving individual is as necessary as money and fame. The film starts intriguingly, showing why Satyam left his village. His return for a wedding, the introduction of Karthi’s character, his mischief, and the troubles Satyam faces with Karthi unknowingly, are all portrayed entertainingly. The director shifts the setting to Karthi’s home, where Satyam’s experiences are heartfelt and take the audience back in time. The mental turmoil Satyam goes through upon not recognizing Karthi adds weight to the narrative. The climax is also well-executed. The film, like a beautiful novel, successfully comes to life on screen, directed flawlessly by Kumar. The slow pace of the story and lack of commercial elements could be seen as drawbacks.







Technically



On the technical front, the background music adds an additional layer of allure to the story, with a continual melody that enhances the emotional depth of the narrative. The visuals are captivating, and the production values are high.

This Week’s OTT &amp;&nbsp; Telugu Movie Releases (10th&nbsp; May)


Director SS Rajamouli, who elevated Indian cinema to a global level and became the country's top director with 'Baahubali,' gained worldwide popularity with the film 'RRR.' The song "Naatu Naatu" from this film even won an Oscar, garnering accolades from all corners of the country. Currently, Rajamouli is busy launching a global-scale film 'SSMB29' with Mahesh Babu. Amidst this, an intriguing piece of news about Rajamouli has surfaced. It is known that he initially considered making a film with Kollywood stars Suriya and his brother Karthi, and it was rumored to be 'RRR.' Let's look into the details of this.



'They Narrated the Story... It Didn’t Work Out'



Tamil star Karthi recently made interesting remarks in an interview. During the promotions for his next movie 'Satyam Sundaram,' Karthi, in an interview with director Gautham Menon, shared an intriguing past discussion. When Menon asked about acting alongside Suriya, Karthi revealed, "Suriya and I will act together if we get the right script. In the past, Director Rajamouli sir narrated a story to us. It was good but that movie didn’t work out." This revelation has surprised movie lovers, prompting questions about how they could pass up a Rajamouli story. There is speculation that had that movie been made, Suriya and Karthi’s stardom might have seen a different trajectory.




https://twitter.com/adarshtp_offl/status/1835533193111392319




The Story of 'RRR'?



Netizens speculate that the movie Rajamouli planned with Suriya and Karthi might have been 'RRR.' They assume that initially, Rajamouli envisioned Suriya and Karthi in the roles later played by Ram Charan and Tarak. For various reasons, that version never progressed to filming. Telugu audiences believe that if Karthi and Suriya had starred in 'RRR,' it might not have achieved the same level of success. They note that while the action and drama of 'RRR' are highlights, the dance sequences also stood out, an area where Suriya and Karthi might have lagged behind Charan and Tarak.







Karthi as a Contender to Tarak!



Karthi's latest film 'Satyam Sundari' is ready for release, where he stars alongside prominent actor Aravind Swamy. The film, directed by Prem Kumar C., who delivered the blockbuster '96,' is set to release worldwide on September 28. A teaser of the film was recently released and has captured attention. Karthi has also announced his next project, which will be produced under the banner of Dream Warrior Pictures as 'Karthi 29.' Details about the rest of the cast and technical team are expected to be released soon.







'SSMB 29' Shooting in December!



Ever since Rajamouli announced a film with Mahesh Babu, everyone has been eagerly waiting to see when the film will go on floors. In this context, there is news that an official update related to SSMB29 will be given on Rajamouli's birthday. Regular shooting for the film is set to begin in December, with the first schedule starting in Germany. The film, set against an 18th-century backdrop featuring rare tribal communities, is creating strong buzz. An official announcement regarding this is expected soon.






SS Rajamouli's Unmade Film with Suriya and Karthi: A Missed Opportunity Before 'RRR'?


Compared to the past few months, August has seen significant releases featuring big stars, and the final week of August is no exception with the release of a star hero's film. OTT platforms are also ready to entertain you with interesting films and web series. Let's look at what new movies are coming to theaters and what films and series are entering OTT in this special feature.



Movies Releasing in Theaters



Saripodhaa Sanivaaram



The latest film starring Natural Star Nani, directed by Vivek Athreya, is "Saripodhaa Sanivaaram." Priyanka Arul Mohan plays the heroine, and prominent Tamil actor S.J. Suryah has taken on the role of the antagonist. This movie, which has already completed its filming, is set to meet the audience on August 29. The recently released trailer has significantly heightened expectations.







Aho! Vikramaarka



Actor Dev Gill, known for his role as a villain in "Magadheera," has gained recognition in several Telugu films. He stars as the lead in the latest film "Aho! Vikramaarka," directed by Trikoti. This film, which has also completed its filming, is scheduled for release on August 30. Dev Gill will be seen as a powerful police officer, with action scenes expected to be a highlight of the movie.







Mass Re-release



"Mass," one of the blockbuster hits of Nagarjuna's career, is set for a re-release. Directed by dance master Raghava Lawrence in 2004, the film greatly attracted the mass audience and achieved significant box office success. In celebration of Nagarjuna's birthday on August 29, "Mass" is being re-released, much to the excitement of Akkineni fans.







Releases on OTT Platforms



IC814: The Kandahar Hijack

Starring Vijay Varma, Aravind Swamy, Dia Mirza, and Naseeruddin Shah, this series begins streaming on Netflix from August 29.
