Manam

An absolutely spellbounding movie which will leave you speechless after watching it... there are movies which are beyond the questions of logics and reasonings and manam belongs to this category... a movie beyond skeptical questionings and rational explanations.. a cinematic experience you have never ever experienced before.. and the music, yes the music just takes the movie few notches higher.. perfectly tailor made for the movie and absolutely irreplaceable, if people are considering remakes... a background score (in every single scene!!!) you can't resist soaking yourself in.. truly, the pitch perfect music (both songs and bgm) is the soul, the essence of the movie..

A brilliant plot.. very very fresh and creative and an absolute fantastic direction to present such a complicating plot in such a simple,sweet and smooth way.. Nagarjuna is top notch.. For me its one of his best performance.. a very sincere effort.. he creates magic in each of his scene.. you are mesmerized every time he is on screen.. great performance..nagarjuna owned the movie.. he rocks!! ANR, though having a less screen time, is a treat to watch.. splendid performance by the veteran.. Shriya too shines in her limited screen time.. shines and shines brighty.. the rest of the cast plays their part fairly well.. The movie itself is a magic, growing up on you and the lasting there in your mind forever.. just when you have a thought that this astounding fest is about to suddenly experience a dip and hit rock bottom and post 15 mins you realize that you experienced the greatest high of the movie. this is the MANAM magic.. trust me.. A movie for all.. Must must must must watch and experience manam..

This is a classic feel good Telugu movie after decades of commercial potboilers. The Director Vikram Kumar did a fabulous job weaving the multiple stories into the plot without spoiling the flow of the film.

The music syncs the narrative further elevating the mood of the film. The performances are good. This film will be remembered as a farewell to veteran actor Akkineni Nageswara Rao.

A feel good film with engaging scenes. Overall, it's love in abundance.

Such a beautiful movie with brilliant theme. This movie has gone beyond my expectations. It's one of the best-written movies in recent times, this one is easily both intriguing and entertaining - something that is rare for a Telugu film in recent times. Also, one thing that needs a special mention in this movie is Performances. Nagarjuna at his best, his acting was very subtle and intriguing at the same time. Chaitanya has improved a lot in terms of acting, he was good too. Samantha and shreya gave their best. Last but not the least ANR, this movie is a perfect tribute to the legend ANR garu. He lives on with MANAM.

Being an ardent fan of Telugu cinema, I walked out of the theater with a tear down my cheek, watching ANR for one last time on silver screen. Such an emotional moment.

Just one word for the movie - Excellent way to give send off to a LEGEND. A Fitting TRIBUTE. Hats off to the 3 Pillars of the movie - Director, Music Director and Cinematographer. Thumbs Up: 1)ANR - NAG - Chaitanya Combo. 2)Samantha's cute performance. 3)Akhil's surprise entry 4)Music and Background Score 5)Cinematography 6)not the least and its the best of all Screenplay & Direction - Hats off. Thumbs Down: N/A It is hard to imagine such a plot and visualize it to the perfection. Manam has some magical moments throughout the film that will make you cheer the characters and their emotions. Romance is too cute and the chemistry between all the lead characters is impeccable. This is actually an emotional film, but the director dealt it in lighter vein and never missed the fun. My Verdict - Masterpiece at it's best

The entire film went very positively from the beginning.Its just like a carnival for the family audience.As i expected from the vikram k kumar the director of the film after watching ishq movie.He gave more over than the expectations.

PERFORMANCES:

The Akkineni family especially A.N.R garu and nagarjuna done very well in the film.chaitu done his role at his best.Samantha done very well as she would be always suited for this type of roles.Every cast and crew done their job well and perfect..!!!

TECHNICAL ASPECTS:

Cinematography Wow..!!! Excellent P.S.VINOD he is the master of the film.Every frame in the film will seem as painting.nice lighting effects and done well in editing also.Especially the accident scene of the nagarjuna and shriya was very well executed.The the Thought of the vikram k kumar about the blood with flowers was very nice.

SUMMARY

Its a wonderful family treat for the class audience.I am sure about it.Every frame in this film is very rich and class.So do not expect any punch dialogs or over emotional scenes in this film.
