I remember when I first watched the trailor of makkhi in theater when I went to watch Burfi.I was laughing seeing the trailer thinking "Here’s another crap movie with 3rd class animation and kiddish silly script. How many times they would do the reincarnation thing .And this is the height- Reincarnation in the form of MAKKHI(BEE) ".
On top of that my friend , during the trailor, told me that its been directed by RAM GOPAL VERMA(I didn’t know anything about the movie at that moment) . I don’t know if you can imagine the state of my mind at that time- All those nausea feel giving close ups from God knows which-which angles. Were in front of my eyes
But watching movie was a very very different experience.....Its very very difficult and...i don’t know what to say...highly skilled task to make insects lovable.Infact, though it has no super powers, the fly is adorable
Cast & their Performance
Actors:
Sudeep as Sudeep
Samantha as Bindu
and
Naani as Naani
Naani has just 20 minutes of act .
Both the lead protagonists Naani and Samantha are sweet and charismatic in their performance..
The lead antagonist Sudeep steals the show with his stellar performance.
Direction
Riding high on the success of his previous films like magadheera, maryada ramanna(remade into "Son of Sardar") , yamadonga and many more ....S.S. Rajamouli comes with another visual treat titled "makhi"(Eega in telugu and Naan E in Tamil). Its said that Eega or MAkkhi is his best till now.
Rajamouli has shown whose the Raja of directions!.
Cinematography
Cinematography is excellent.
Music
music is well timed. M.M.Keeravani has taken music to a new interesting level.
Arey arey arey is lovely song.
Plot
This film begins with a typical love story between the lead protagonists Naani(played by Naani) who makes fireworks and Bindu(played by Samantha) who is a micro artist and also runs an Project 511, an NGO.
The male protagonist Nani lives opposite to Bindu and is in love with her..By the time Bindu realizes that she has started loving him too, its too late already.....
The antagonist Sudeep who is shown as a rich brat and gets what he wants is smitten by Bindu Seeing Bindu interested in Naani, he tries to remove the thorn in his path and kills Naani mercilessly...
The real fun begins when Naani’s soul transmigrates in a housefly with all his past memories intact...
The Housefly starts tormenting Sudeep and wants to kill him which he succeeds in the end.
What’s exciting?
After reading the plot you might be thinking "Same old boring concept .What’s new and exciting about it?"
Well, How a small Housefly kills a human and how Bindu helps the fly with her micro artistry is shown exceptionally well by Rajamouli and that is what prevents you from even blinking an eye.
Don’t believe me yet? Watch the movie...you will start agreeing.
The Best Scene
Well I think Its unjust to select just one scene over other superb roller coaster scenes. But still , I’ll give you two of my favourite moments-
1.The fly writes "i will kill you" on sudeep’s car at Interval.
- Sudeep in Steam Room.
Recommendation
If you haven’t watched it, then fool go and watch the movie... what are you waiting for? .And haan listen , take everyone with you whom you can!
Aur agar dekh liya hai to tumhe fir se dekhne ka man kar raha hai ki nahi ? :P Well news is that its sequel is getting planned.
