      A pure love story

      Oka manasu is a love story as the title suggests. But what it really is a collage of moments between two people in Love. The graph of the love slowly grows on you and the last 20 to 30 mins will just melt your heart.

      There is no story in the movie for 60% of the time. As I said earlier it is just a collage of moments between Surya and Sandhya. This format of showing love is pretty new and so slowly grows on you. And in second half when the story unfolds, you keep hoping against the hope for the couple to unite. And they do unite to become "Oka Manasu" but how? That needs to be experienced by watching the movie.

      If I have to take the names then Sunil Kashyap the music director leads the list. His songs and background score are life of the movie. Then comes director Rama Raju who was very bold to make such a pure and unadulterated love story for this generation. Coming to actors both Shaurya and Niharika did good along with everyone. But Niharika acted like a very senior actor. Her fine nuances is acting need to be watched only on screen to even understand how promising she looked. I cannot even put her acting into words. She definitely shouldered the movie pretty good. Not to lessen Shaurya's contribution, he was good too. Their chemistry is so adorable and very touching. And finally the dialogues. They are very thought provoking and deep in meaning. Not your regular Trivikram style one liners. Only drawback in the movie is some melodramatic treatment of one or two scenes.

      On a whole, I LOVED IT but this may not be everyone's cup of tea. This is a very soulful love story which Telugu cinema has not seen in last two decades. If you like this movie it will haunt you for few days.

      OKish movie

      Decent movie with story of a short film, slow screen play, good music and above Ok artist performances.

      Movie is good. But it is slow..

      Performance and especially Climax is very nicely done by NagaShourya.

      Oka Manasu is boring tiresome movie which really gives us bad feeling about love.

      Oka Manasu (2016): Love stories have great potential to be remained as classics if they have right amount of emotions.But if we mess with it,it will also remain as classics but the other way.I have seen a lot of films which turn out to be duds trying to be poetic.Trailer of Oka Manasu also showed that it is going to be poetic.SO how is it??

      Plot: Hmmmmmm....Hero and Heroine meet after sunrise,keeps talking talking talking talking and depart after sunset.Repeat mode on till 2hr 26 min duration.

      Plus Points: 1)Music: Music by Sunil Kashyap is good and melodious.Especially O Mansa sung by Shreya Ghoshal is awesome.BGM is also decent.

      2)Performances: Performances are decent but nothing remarkable.Niharika,star of the movie acted decently but I expected a lot from her.

      Minus Points: Oka Manasu itself is a biggest flaw.Its entirely director's mistake.Why he tried to be so poetic though this movie did not have any maturity in its content.

      So Oka Manasu is boring tiresome movie which really gives us bad feeling about love.

      My rating 3.5/10
