REVIEW : VEDAM
Story:
A routine tale told differently, the story is about people from different walks of life. There is Cable Raju (allu arjun) who is street smart living in a slum and wanting to marry his rich girlfriend Pooja (deeksha). He acts as if he is also rich guy. Then there is Vivek (Manchu manoj), an aspiring rock star wanting to make it big. There is Saroja (anushka) who wants to come out of Amalapuram and escape so that she can survive on her own and make more money. Then there is Raheem Khureshi (manoj bajpai) who is mistaken to be a terrorist purely for the fact that he is a Muslim. Last but not the least, there is Nagaiah (ramulu) who is desperate to get his grandson educated and decides to donate the kidney of his daughter in law (saranya) to arrange for the funds. Destiny gets them together under one roof and what happens from there forms the rest of the story.
Presentation:
The director has come up with a thoughtful storyline but though the presentation was good, the narrative was weak. The dialogues were good, the script was mediocre and the screenplay was not upto the mark. Background score was nice but songs were not. Cinematography is the major asset for this movie. Editing was nice. Costumes and art department did their job effectively. Allu Arjun got a good role and he did justice to it. Manchu Manoj played a mild role but he was competent. Anuska was awesome as usual. Manoj Bajpai was wasted, Ramulu was impressive. Deeksha looks sweet and seductive, Lekha was normal, Seiya was luscious, Brahmi came and went, Raghu Babu was regular, Satyam Rajesh was nice, the others did their bit as required.
Conclusion:
The film is basically an attempt to show the human psychology and how things change as per situation. While the first half goes good and engages the audience, the second half falls down and the climax is not appealing. Technically, the film has been made very well but the makers should have focused on content as well. At the box office, the openings will be splendid due to the hype created but eventually, it will require strong publicity and word of mouth to succeed.
