My Movie – Vedam

I am so delighted to write about another beautiful and meaningful Telugu movie released in recent times. That is Vedam. I was privileged to watch this awesome movie in Dallas, TX yesterday at 9:30 show with full packed crowd. From starting to ending, this is a wonderful watch. It has humor, it has sensitive emotions, touch of philosophy, touch of spiciness and leaves the audience in thinking mode at the end of the movie.

Allu Arjun, I can say this is his career best movie. Leave aside starry airs, big dishum dishum and Ratham pulllings single handedly. This is his finest performance to date, did wonderful romantic scenes, acted like a rich kid and like a slum kid, he knows what he does is either wrong or right but blindly in love to become a rich guy by marrying a rich gal. His scenes especially towards the end are marvelous. The way he stole the money from Nagyya but cannot take his eyes of ill patient are perfectly shot on him, dialogues written for him are wonderful. The kid he plays with in the hospital, they were shot very naturally. Dialogues especially "pulihora lo puli undadu" lanti dialogues.

Manchu Manoj.., I am not sure why it was publicized as Guest appearance, but we can see him all the way from starting to the end. He did wonderful acts, especially breaking the car glass in real. I believe he sets the tempo for the movie itself, with his entrance like a real rock star in the beginning, he like a rock star at utmost conviction. I cant really see anyone else in the current generation who can play a rock star with this perfection, he suited very well with his build and acting prowess. His character of realizing he himself helping somebody instead of thinking some one else can help, his realization and how he acted in the climax scenes are good.

Anuskha, really wonderful., she did very good infact with limitations. A heroine of her stardom agreeing for this role is worth praising and the way she questions the corrupt cop why he is selling himself and there is no difference between her and corrupt official are good.., Manoj Bajpai, his character should have been much more in depth, but he did wonderful act with utmost conviction what he is given. Nagayya garu, even though he suites the character pretty well, a little care should have been taken how he utters his dialogues infront of camera. Cop Ravi Prakash, he did a wonderful job again.., Infact he acted very powerful, his character might have been shadowed by main leads but he contributed very well without over acting as cop.

Radhakrishna aka Krish, I was thinking first movie is always good just like any other director because he should be thinking for a long time to come up with this first movie. And from the second movie onwards its the same usual stuff.., I guess only Dev katta, and Krish proved otherwise. I did have the same expectations from the director Sanjay Suri (A film by aravind director), so I was thinking if Krish also falls in the same category.., No Sir, you did prove you have enough material to keep audience like me thinking and satisfied movie after movie. Thanks for the wonderful movie, people actually clapped at the end of the movie.., Did i say enough!! people actually clapped at the end of the movie my dear...,
