Kousalya Supraja Rama

Watched the best family entertainer yesterday.

Positives of the movie:

Performances - Nagabhushan, Rangayana Raghu and Milana Nagraj will take awards home for their flawless performances. Sudha Belawadi is so natural that one feels like watching their mother on the screen. Darling Krishna's best cinema outside Love Mocktail zone.

Direction - Shashank is back with his best work yet. Though his previous cinemas were blockbusters, humour was something that he hadn't tried. This cinema is humorous to the core. He has proved yet again that he is the go to director for complete family entertainers today.

Writing - Brilliant story. One liners are crazy, comedy scenes are hilarious especially in the second half. Emotional scenes make your eyes wet. Dialogues in those scenes break you down. Overall, amaaazing job by a newbie.

Music - second half is super hilarious and emotional because of the tempo that music has set. AJ has elevated scenes to another level. Song placement in the cinema is perfect every time.

Negatives:

A few scenes in the First half could have been trimmed. Like, it could have been better in the first 15 minutes of the cinema

Songs should have been chartbusters. These are just above average/good.

Would have loved to see more scenes of Sudha and Rangayana Raghu.

Overall, this is the best cinema in recent times. A comeback movie for Darling Krishna and Milana. Shashank too is back after a very dry phase of 6-7 years. Watch it. This is the best cinema and the most sensible cinema of late.

Watched this movie in Hyderabad with the family. It is better than many Telugu blockbusters of late. I dont remember when was the last time all of us sat together and watched such a good cinema in theatres. Maybe Milana, nothing of that quality after that. It made us laugh, cry and still have that smile throughout its runtime. Story, script and dialogues were the best in recent times, because everything was written so decently and still made every age group laugh! It gave a feeling of watching something sensible. Performance of each artist was top notch, in fact the best in their career. Just Shashank can make such movies in today's era. Strongly recommend to every age group 🤗

I had my own set of doubts about this cinema. So, here is how my weekend went:

28th July - Rocky aur Rani ki Prem Kahaani 29th July - Achar and Co 30th July - Kousalya Supraja Rama

One thing is surprisingly common in all these three cinemas. They have attempted to speak about patriarchy and sort of women's perspective about the same. On a lighter note, why don't we call July 28th the "men and women's day"?!!

Though this was the cinema I watched in the last, I feel, this is the best among all the three and hence a 10 on 10. A massy yet classy narrative built around the inherited patriarchy is a serious take on the most sensitive subject. But the point is, the narrative is rib-tickling and at the same time heart-wrenching.

I read other reviews, where people have already spoken about the performances, direction and everything else. To me, the writing was the highlight. Every single character behaved distinctively from each other. The lines they spoke, the way they reacted, the points of realisation etc.

Holistically, everything that was written was heartfelt. Some brilliant one-liners, deep statements which evoked laughter in one scene and made us think twice in the other. Just brilliant!

I hope more Kannada directors come up with something as meaningful and as entertaining as this cinema. Cheers!!

Career best performance from Darling krishna and Milana Nagraj. Content is the real hero here! I don't remember when was the last time my family loved a cinema so much. I am running short of words to express what I am feeling right now. This cinema should win. Smile, laugh, cry, laugh, smile - Kousalya Supraja Rama in a nutshell! What a beautiful movie.. Tooo good. A comeback cinema for Darling Krishna. This movie will remain special for ages to come. One of the best Kannada cinemas ever!!!

Keep your expectations as high as you want, because this cinema will deliver beyond it! MASTERPIECE Guru!

A much needed cinema in Kannada this year. A neat family entertainer that will intrigue you for a long time. Just WOW!

Trailer onthara itbittu, bere cinemaane torsbittrala guruuu! BLOCKBUSTER .. I will watch it with my family again Surprise surprise!! Nobody expected this cinema to be this good. The best cinema of 2023 so far.. Daaaamn!!!!
