Finally, it is confirmed as a hit

There were mixed reviews for the film early on during the release time. Later on many big movies entered into the competition for ‘prema kavali’ and the Cricket World Cup haven’t really bothered it. Including with ‘Ala Modalaindi,’ this ‘prema kavali’ is declared a silent hit of year till now. Completing 100 days in 23 centers, Vijay Bhaskar’s direction, Aadi’s ease in performance and heroine Isha Chawla’s hot looks combinely helped the film to have a long standing.

Film sources who spoke very less about ‘prema kavali’ till last two weeks are now agreeing that film has done a decent job at BO by maintaining steady collections throughout. Well, it is paradoxical that second film of Aadi isn’t declared till now. Wish that Aadi makes his father Sai Kumar feel proud in future too.

Aadi's next flick with RR Movie Makers

Aadi, who is making debut in Prema Kaavali, has signed his second film even before the movie released. He will be doing his second film for the same producers - R R Movie Makers. On the other hand, his father and actor Saikumar is happy that his son is getting offers as hero.

It took several years for Saikumar to get stardom in the film industry. His current film,Prema Kaavali , is made with Rs 12 Crores budget, the producers announced.

‘Dialogue King’ Sai Kumar is a tense father as his son Aadi is making his debut in cinema today. It is also a comeback of sorts for veteran director K Vijayabhaskar. Let us see what both of them have been upto

Story: Prema (Isha) is the darling daughter of a honest and strict police officer (Nasser) but she is currently being blackmailed by one person (Shafi). Prema’s tension catches the eye of her sister-in- law (Sindhu Tolani) and this reveals a flashback. The story is about Srinu (Aadi), Prema’s classmate and his love for her. However, Prema doesn’t respond to his love feelings but becomes friends with him. But an unexpected situation makes her hate Srinu and that becomes the cause of her worries. What is that situation? Is Srinu successful in his love story? All this forms the rest of the story.

Performances: Aadi has made a confident debut. He has built a sturdy physique, nice dance moves, expressive body language and above all, a voice and facial countenance that reminds his father. Overall, he came up with a good job. But instead of heavy build body, he would have concentrated on lean muscle built to get a romantic look. Aadi needs to concentrate on bringing depth in emotions from his second film onwards. On a whole, he passed the debut test without any hassles.

Isha Chawla will strike a chord with the youth audience. She is beautiful, has an adorable smile, an innocent sex appeal that makes her desirable. If she can polish few of her expressions then she has strong potential.

Dev Gill has that mean look but his role was brief. Shafi is a talent whose abilities must be challenged further. Supreeth has good screen presence but then his role was minimal. 

Brahmanandam and M S Narayana gave hilarious moments, their sense of timing and their screen chemistry was excellent. Ali gave his own share of laughs. Sindhu Tolani was decent, Nasser was matured as usual. Naga Babu and Jayasudha gave guest appearances. 

Highlights:

• Aadi’s ease in performance
• Isha Chawla’s glamour (don’t miss her wet song)
• Brahmi- M S Narayana comedy sequences
• Cinematography
• CG Effects
• Locations for songs and picturization

Setbacks:

• No great gripping romantic moments
• Two scenes in second half got dragged
• Dev Gill’s character should have got more strength and power

Analysis: More than the story it is the narration which plays a crucial role for any film and that’s where experienced directors like Vijayabhaskar make their mark.

Here, there was nothing special in the story but it was his screenplay and the right proportion of comedy, romance, emotions which gave a fresh look.

He was well supported by strong technicians and rich production values. Though there may not be very touching romantic moments, the film passes off without creating much dilemma.

At the box office, this will appeal to the college and youth audience. This looks like an attempt to show Aadi as an actor who can dance, fight and romance since he is looking ahead for portraying mass masala hero roles.

Bottomline: Good for time pass

Rs 12 Cr On 'Prema Kavali': Confidence Or Foolishness?

A big budget film means big stars, top heroines, big banners, heavy technicians but here is one film which seems to be raising a discussion in the film nagar area. Well, it is ‘Prema Kaavali’ and it has a debutante lead pair, an average music director but a budget of Rs 12 crores spent on it.

Well, the figure has been claimed by the makers and the cine folks wonder if it is confidence or foolishness. On the bright side, hats off to their confidence for arriving introducing a new hero with this sort of budget. It is heard that producer Atchi Reddy promised Sai Kumar that he will give a grand debut to Sai’s son Aadhi after watching few of his clips.

Now, he is going full flow with the release organizing a grand premiere, hiring around 300 spots in Hyderabad such as bus shelters, lollypops, hoardings and releasing it in 200 screens. But critics say recovery of such an investment would mean the film must have exceptional appeal and Aadhi must come up with strong performance to connect with the audience. Well, the fate of this will be known soon.

A Talented Cricketer Who Became Telugu Hero

Cricket and cinema are two things that run in the veins of almost all the Indians. This is the story of one lad who started off as a cricketer and has now become a hero. He is none other than Aadhi, son of dialogue king Sai Kumar and he got to share his thoughts recently on his journey.

Aadhi said that he played for the Hyderabad Under 19 team and while Rayudu was his senior, the famous spinner Pragyan Ojha was his room mate. However, it was the influence of his grandfather P J Sarma (the noted dubbing artist and a senior actor) and father Sai Kumar which brought him to acting. Aadhi also revealed how his dad told that becoming an actor is a tough game.

So, he took rigorous training for four years by going to the gym and working on his physique, learnt dance from Lawrence, acting under Satyanand at Vizag and dialogues under Kakarla Master. Apparently, once he was through with his training, his dad showed the videos to producer Atchi Reddy and that’s how ‘Prema Kaavali’ took shape.
