Malli Malli Idhi Rani Roju

If there is a huge positive that I received during the lockdown period, it is this!

Despite being a classic UPaiyya, I love Telugu movies. They're class apart, and it was during one of my routine raids for authentic Telugu movies, that I saw a movie review on this by YouTube reviewer Pratik Borade.

I had heard about Nithya Menen from Mission Mangal, but never did I realize that she was such a fantastic actress. Those expressive eyes could make anyone fall in love with them, and boy was she outstanding!

The chemistry between Nithya and the hero Sharwanand is almost flawless. The way they express their feelings, it's almost hard to find such clean, no nonsense romantic movies these days. I guess K Kranthi Madhav achieved the impossible - Telling things the simple way, and I laughed at the very thought that this is the same guy who made a rather forgettable World Famous Lover.

The best part about the film is that it doesn't mock Bharatiya Sanskriti in order to sound cool. Also, the reverse case of a Hindu boy falling in love with a Muslim girl and not mocking his own culture will bound to piss off some folks. But haters gonna hate.

If you've not seen this, what are you doing? True lovers will find this as a heavenly experience. I wish I was fortunate enough to watch this in theatres.

To start with the review, the first thing we have to talk about is about Sharwanand ! Thanks to him for doing meaningful movies with a very good dose of entertainment ! After RUN RAJA RUN..one can expect him to stay in the mark he is...but this time, he crosses the line...and satisfies us more than we expect ! He looks fantastic in this film....his expressions and his dialogs are major plus points ! Nitya Menon...who is also known for doing Family Entertainers, gives a striking performance...one cannot imagine any other girl to replace her ! She is apt for a role of a Muslim Girl....it's not too easy to deliver right expressions just with eyes...viewers will get themselves glued to her eyes ! She get's a matured role and yes....she is 100% apt for it ! Performance wise, everyone did their best ! A few cute moments will be liked by each and everyone ! Next thing we have to talk about is Story ! Story is completely classy and will be liked by many ! Screenplay is excellent...and keeps us engaged throughout the film ! Direction is extra ordinary too....Kranthi Madhav really showed himself this time with a greater appeal ! Many people (especially people from A centers) will feel highly romantic in few scenes...this might be the best choice to go with their best partners...or with a family ! Cinematography is the best thing happened to this movie ! With almost a standard of crystal visuals, it showcases each and every frame in a colorful manner ! Cinematographer needs to tap his back for doing such a fantastic job ! Editing is good...but a few shots (just of a couple of seconds) could have been trimmed to avoid jerks in the film ! Dialogues and lyrics penned are highly meaningful....and will just add more beauty to the film ! Songs are very very very good....for such a classy film, Songs are need to be melodious which it is ! Picturization is also very good...except a song pops in wrong timing...however, if something sounds melodious...then why to feel disturbance ? Background Score is outstanding and we hum music even when we step out of auditorium ! Production values look very rich ! And to talk about drawbacks...there are a very few things like lack of clarity in characterization of Nazar, and so on....but they look very small when compared to the PROs of this movie ! On the whole, Malli Malli Idi Rani Roju is a complete classy movie which is too clean ! Enjoy this movie with your family or your best buddies...if you like romantic movies, and if you can ignore regular commercial popcorn stuff, then don't dare to miss this !

One of the purest love stories ever. No skinshow, no intimate scene and not even a kiss but just pure love. No conflicts based on religion though different religion characters. Beautiful music. Performances are worth awards. Dialogues are forever remembering. Love the couple. Suspense in the second half adds the beauty and classyness of the film. Though underrated still a must watch.

What makes a movie good? you may say good story, great acting, beautiful music, good narration etc. This movie fares average in most of these aspects; average story, decent music, apt acting from the lead pair, still I consider it as a great movie with major credit to the dialogues. yes, it's the dialogues of the movie which makes the ordinary and already seen story look beautiful.

Nitya and Sarwanand acting is just awesome in the two different roles, young and old. The cinematography is top notch. Every frame looks beautiful complemented by the pleasant background music, giving a pleasant feeling throughout the movie. Though the story may seem unrealistic and too ideal which is the prime quality of many classic, it suits the movie very well.

A must watch for the great acting of the lead pair, and the memorable dialogues. Hats off to dialogue writer Sai Madhav Burra.

I have watched this movie in 2020, serious regretting how did i missed such a beautiful movie in 2014... Dialogues and songs are beyond compare... must watch movie.
