Must watch, one of the best movies I've seen. A path breaking movie.
C/o kancharapalem is a well crafted movie by debut director Maha ventatesh with nuance emotions in its exposition set under realistic environment .Music is simply plain and as the movie proceeds with situations you can feel it. Dialogs are written in simple and crispy language to suit the tone of local language of kacharpalem with all fresh untrained actors doing a fine job. Story/plot is something which you guys have to experience yourself before someone reveals.First 10 to 15 minutes into the movie you get connected with characters and there are humor scenes (lol) associated with it throughout the film. A film never to be missed for itzz honest making efforts by all newbies like all cast and crew. Kudos to suresh production for bringing the movie to theatres. Final a word of advice watch it in theatres for experiencing a soulful film.
A directors' kind of movie. The screenplay and narration amplified my attention throughout which is usually not the case with me and telugumovies of late! Finally heard some fresh lines and saw some cute faces! Acting was a spot on with a majority of them. LoveXSociety storyline happened in some outskirts of an emerging city was given and projected onto a new dimension. A great effort must have been put in to keep the costumes and accessories in coherence with the time. Although I wished a little more effort in sinking the dialect with the time should have been a great plus. Also the outragious demolition and the deaths for the two major belief-systems whereas a smooth weep-over for the third, might lose points in the fair lens of some. All in all a worth watching movie.
Description:
"C/o Kancherapalem" is a film of various love tales set in four different generation people, in which the characteristic point is, all these stories are happening in a typical village called Kancherapalem (Although it is a part of the city Vizag, director portrayed it like a village). However, the main focus is on the drama between Raju, a 49 years old attender in a government office and Radha, a 42 years old middle-aged woman got transferred from Orissa to the same office. The protagonist Raju is unmarried due to some personal problems, because of which the whole village irritates him by continually asking about his wedding, and even mock him for being the bachelor. Radha is a widow with an adolescent daughter.
Analysis: Not even a single artist is known to us, but the director got triumphed enough in obtaining the required performances out of them. Every actor has done their job well. However, it is Mr. Subba Rao, who played the character "Raju" got a meaty role, and he is quite natural in it. With the few initial shots, the director set the right mood in audiences' minds and prepares us to witness a beautiful village drama. Although it is a compilation of many love stories, the director did not talk only about love but also discussed the crooked, narrow mindset of a typical human being in our current society. The themes of the stories are not entirely new, and we saw many of them in several other films. But the presentation is quite interesting in setting up the tale. Every single shot is made in natural light, and the freshness has lasted throughout the movie. Camara work is authentic, and editing is the colossal strength of the film. Music is another department which needs a proper appreciation for an adequate background score, and village folk songs. One may feel that the initial portions of the film are dragged a bit, but I think it is necessary to establish the four stories. Once the stage is set, the director takes us into the village Kancherapalem and makes us involved in this lovely drama. As the film progresses towards the end, the stories turn quite engaging with many scary situations. Finally, the twist which glues everything together is an epic conclusion that one can give. Considering the budget constraints, and the challenges in making this flick, I'd say this is a fantastic output that a new director can get. Mr. Venkatesh Maha, I could not appreciate you enough for making this beautiful flick, and I thank all the members of the crew for this remarkable drama.

I should start this review with "go watch it in the theatre. It's well worth your time and money."
It leaves such a wonderful after-taste even after you come out of a theatre. The way religion, love, sex and humanism are dealt with are commendable. The best part is getting everything together without hurting any communal sentiments. 2018 has been a golden year in telugu cinema and ths just proves the excellent transformation TFi is going through.
