Prema Kavali Movie Review – Prema Kavali Review – Prema Kavali Telugu Movie Review: Sai Kumar’s son Aadi made his debut with Prema Kavali. Vijay Bhaskar who earlier made many hit films is roped in as the director. Like all star kids first films, Prema Kavali focuses on commercial ingredients to woo all the sections of audience. To showcase all the skills of the young kid in particular. Hence, Prema Kavali is clichéd, utterly routine, occasionally boring and has a pathetic ending. Let us uncover the details of Prema Kavali in this review…
Story:
Prema (Isha Chawla), who is a daughter of Jail Superintendent (Nazar) gets harassed by one person (Shafi) who has the photos of Prema kissing Srinu. Who is Srinu (Aadi)? He is a classmate of Prema who falls for her in the first sight and tries to woo her all the time. But being a conservative girl, Prema doesn’t respond to his love. Then happens this kissing incident which turns out to be a nightmare of her life. Who is Shafi? What is the intention behind his harassment will be revealed later.
Analysis:
Vijaya Bhaskar, who is yet to bag a hit sans Trivikram struggles on the script front yet again. The story is too silly to believe. Linking a tender love story to terrorism is absurd. And taking it seriously and pushing it to the maximum is ridiculous. Screenplay is so bad that we almost forget what happened prior to that particular scene and doesn’t have a clue about where it is heading to.
First half is strictly Okay with routine college comedy and few songs. It gets on to your nerves towards the intermission. Second half too runs on the same note. Vijaya Bhaskar’s desperate attempt to be a Trivikram all by himself boomeranged big time in this movie as he tried to link this love story to terrorism. He followed the pattern of Trivikram’s stories by introducing comedy characters in between. Trivikram has the knack of linking the characters perfectly to the story but Vijaya Bhaskar lacks it completely.
Therefore, the so called comedy scenes involving Brahmanandam and MS Narayana looks forced and unfunny. That lengthy scene has nothing to do with the story. By then the film is set for a climax and director who is completely unaware of that goes for a picnic. Climax is the biggest minus in this film. If anyone wants to pass this off as an average fare until then would fail it mercilessly for that stupid climax scene. NCC cadet chasing ISI terrorist all alone will stand out as one of the stupidest ever scenes in the history of Telugu cinema.
People couldn’t stand that absurdity and walked out of the Premiere show (which is not a common scene) will tell the whole story for you. Prema Kavali is a complete waste of time and not even worth watching once.
Performances:
Sai Kumar’s son Aadi is fine. His performance for a first timer is Okay. He has the boy next door looks and can dance well. However, he should have waited for another couple of years as he looked too young to be a hero. Isha Chawla doesn’t have the looks of a heroine. Not many would figure out that she is the lead lady when she appears for the first time. She sizzled in a rain song.
Sindhu Tolani turned into a character artist with this movie. She is good. Dev Gill is wasted. Shafi is routine. Nazar is standard. Ali tries to pump in some energy. Brahmanandam and MS Narayana are not needed.
Technicalities:
Prasad Varma tries too hard to imitate Trivikram. His rhyming dialogues are painful on ears. Chota K Naidu has gone wasted. He did his best to make this film stylish. Anup Rubens music is peppy but lacks soul. Background score is average. Editing by Gowtham Raju is not up to the mark. Production values are rich. The film looked lavish in each and every frame.
Vijaya Bhaskar fails as a writer and director. Looks like Trivikram should make time to put this man back on track.
Plus Points:
- Production values and publicity
Minus points:
- Story
- Dialogues
- Screenplay
- Direction
Final Word:
Prema Kavali offers nothing new except marking the debut of Sai Kumar’s son.
