There has been shortage of thriller/horror movies in telugu.The last horror movie in telugu I remember was Ram Gopal Verma directed -Deyyam-(Ghost) which came 10 years back.Since then, no horror movies in telugu.A Film By Aravind is a good thriller movie, which came last year.Even though there is no logic in the story, Still a hit!How is that possible?.This movie sure thrills and holds the suspense but there is no logic in the story.
Cast:Rajeev.K, Rishi, Mona Chopra, Mallikarjun Rao.
Story, Screenplay, Direction:Sekhar Suri.
Story:
Its about 2 friends Aravind(Rajeev, the man with spectacles) and Rishi(Rishi).Both struggle hard in life and become successful.While Aravind becomes a successful director, Rishi becomes a successful hero.Both of them bag a couple of hits combinely and for their next project, invite new scripts, which come in many.They select an interesting one, but the climax part of the script is already smudged with inkAravind and Rishi set off to their guest house for discussion, which is far away from the city.And the events, that are in the selected script, start to happen in their real life, like the duo meeting a woman(Mona Chopra)to whom they give lift, a fight with a rowdy, meeting another stranger, chasing a car, the woman coming to the guest house along with the two, both falling in love with the woman, both fighting for the woman, the woman marrying the hero, and the woman turning out to be a psycho killer!!!Aravind discovers that the script is turning to be true, but cannot know who the woman is going to kill.So he calls the writer.He tells the truth which leaves him shocked, the hero is going to be killed!!!Aravind tries his best to save his best friend but he gets killed in the climax!Shocked?the script writer changes the climax and kills the director in the script and so does the director die in reality.And for a strong twist, the mysterious woman is not a psycho killer and the real lady psycho killer pops in and kills the director.When a dying aravind asks the writer why he is dying, heres the reply from the writer-i did not want to get compromised with the script and killed the hero.But I got compromised and killed the director-.The logical reason behind the events happening is not given and this leaves a big question mark on the viewers face and the last half an hour is so dark that nothing is visible.Only some shadows and voices are heard.
Performances:Rajeev.K is excellent as Aravind.He performed well.Rishi is good in his role.Mona Chopra is OK.She exposed a lot in this movie(not her acting, her beauty).
Direction by Sekhar Suri is excellent.Screenplay is tight in first half.But the climax is senseless.The chase scene in the first half is extremely terrific and superb.First half is swift but second half is extended and boring.Overall...a good movie.
