Vedam

The film initially begs for freshness but as it hits the second hour it touches you, draws you into their purgatory, their ups and downs. Wow!! Its a Very Good Movie and a Lot of new point of view. The Director is here to stay, he proved earlier in Gamyam itself and now he put a signature in the History of Telugu and Indian Film Industry. What a Movie!! Can be matched with any Great movies in India such as Maniratnam's or Sekhar Kummals or Adoor Gopalakrishnan etc..

Allu Arjun dominates the film with his flawless work. In the second part of the film, his expressions are splendid, especially when he tries to steal money at the hospital, while going to pay for the tickets and his scenes with a small child whose smile he chose to overlook in a hurry to fulfill his desire. Manoj Bajpai: Needless to say about him. Needless to talk about him, He always delivers what is expected. Anushka is simply natural and yes pretty too. and Manoj: Well Done, He can be proud enough to be a Part of such a Beautiful and Meaning full movie.

Vedam – the format in which it has been told was never done before in Telugu cinema.

Dialogues are the asset of this movie and Allu Arjun is the face and soul of this movie. The way his character develops is amazing. Career best performance.

It is really a daring step by any producer or director to do such a film especially with a commercial hero like Arjun and glamorous star Anushka, besides Manchu Manoj.

A social experimental movie with certain characters of different classes of people and the life changing moment which is a beautiful writing from Krish Jagarlamudi

The movie is good for Telugu industry definitely. The casting was good and a big experiment that gave some positive results.

The first half of the movie doesn't have any story and tends to bore you. The script tried very hard to establish all the characters in the first half and doesn't concentrate on the story. But, the second half is power packed and gets the best of writing supported by performances. Nagayya as Ramulu is awesome. Arjun is his usual energetic. Anushka is sexy and innocent at the same time. Manchu Manoj is good for his role. Manoj Bajpai has done justice to his role.

Overall, this movie has a potential to change the industry norms and standards if taken in right sense and elevate the movie making art. Full credit has to be given to Krish, the director.

Kudos to the director Krish and the artists mainly Anushka.. She us fabulous in her role and applause for her dareness to choose this role

wow!what an experience which compelled me into writing this..lets start from the beginning..

when i was told that this was an experimental movie in telugu, i was really circumspect because let me tell u i've been watching telugu movies for many years now & whenever someone tries something "different" more often it turns out to be awful.

but this one's one of those movies which stands for all the great things about this great medium.it shows,reflects,teaches & above all it inspires.

hats off to the director for pulling this off with a difficult subject,ensemble cast & an amazing way of story telling.

if u really are curious to know the story,it intertwines 4 stories which are very distinct on their own from the beginning to the end. just the characters meet very briefly & u keep wondering through the 1st half if there is any connection at all. and boy there is! its not just topical but a much deeper connection & the director keeps it ticking without a single dull moment with great élan.

its the triumph of human spirit that touches u in the second half. the scene where allu arjun (yes the same guy who did the horrible varudu)returns the money or manoj(fully intense throughout)takes on goons who really are hooligans in the name of religion or the superbly crafted climax that takes ur breath away.

this movie asserts everyone gets a second chance to redeem yourself no matter how terrible ur mistakes are.its just up to u to embrace it. it uses such dramatic situations to prove this that often makes u tearful and yet every character is so real that one can identify oneself in at least one of them.this is what makes this movie hit the jackpot.

the acting is fine by all leading stars.after seeing this u keep wondering y Allu Arjun chooses some horrible movies.manoj bajpai shines in his role as Muslim fighting against the system but the guy who stand out with his intense role a wannabe rock star unwillingly ending up a patriot is Manoj.

I know some of u may not like the ending but come-on aren't we tired of the same old stuff?this is contemporary movie making at its best & its prudent for us to embrace it & encourage such movie makers who make us proud to be Indians!!
