Swarnakamalam

Every time (which I have done more than 20 times till now)I watch this movie I count it as another wonderful movie of Sri Viswanath. I am bowled over by Meenakshi. The precise depiction of the typical lifestyle of people dedicated to music and dance is worth any amount of praise. It is not new in Viswanath's movies but this movie overdid the others by margins.

Venkatesh's love for Bhanupriya is so clean and 'pure' I should say. If every artist had such a supportive spouse, then our country would not see the 'nearing extinction' situation of Indian fine arts.

The music is wonderful and one is placed in a dilemma as to whether enjoy the music or the dance. I would be surprised if viewers didn't feel an involuntary dance movement by their bodies while watching the damsel dance.

Swarnakamalam is a movie which touches your heart and soothes your mind.We can probably say that only Viswanath garu can make these type of movies.Swarnakamalam is a masterpiece which will be remembered for generations."Must Watch" movie for movie lovers who will appreciate the aesthetic values of cinema.

This movies is a perfect blend of all! Music + Lyrics + Screen Play + Story + Direction + Performance of artists.

Back bone of this (ofcourse this kind of movie) is MUSIC. Ilayaraja did his best. The BGM is the best and I can give more points while comparing the earlier movie Sagara Sangamam. (Both are by Same K.Vishwanath - Ilayaraja combination).

As far as the songs and the dance sequence are really unbeatable. That Flute theme and Violin bit are best of Ilaiyaraja.

Totally an Excellent work by all genius's and their talents!!!! Don't miss this movie!!

This is a wonderful movie which can be watched any number of times and still the same fun and awed feeling can be had as on the first time. It is a beautiful blend of emotions like love, pride, self respect spiced up with irresistible classical music, classical dance, light and contextual humour. One cannot but develop a deep sense of respect for classical arts after watching this movie. The characters are very well etched and the story just progresses smoothly with very common and predictable events in one's routine life. The excellence of the movie lies not in story but in the touching emotions, pleasing music, wonderful dance performances and beautiful characters. Bhanupriya and Venkatesh are at their youthful best in the movie, seen fresher than ever again. And for Vishwanath, it was just another masterpiece which for sure and cannot be afforded to miss.

The story of a young lady born in a family of classical dancers. The problem is she hates dance. The guy next door wont let her give up the beautiful art which makes her special from the rest of the world. The movie explores different problems they face, and explains different views of the same issue.

Delighted. That was my first reaction after watching the movie. yes , the movie has quite a flaw in cinematized dance sequences. But the movie is totally amazing in the way it conveys the message. The story and screenplay are two pillars supporting this movie, which is decorated by great music. The lyrics of all the songs, are the best I ve heard till date.

One song is a debate between the lady and guy next door, about the importance of saving ones art VS doing what u like. Another compares the dancing lady with the Rain. The third one explains how awesome life can get with art. Awesome lyrics from the great writer Sirivennela.
