Cinegola rating: ***__ Good (3 stars)
Cinegola points: 3 out of 5
Tagline: Love at first sight
Strengths: Comedy
Weaknesses: Nothing
Highlights:
1. Janardhan telling a faction story (Ugra Naram) to his friend and Brahmanandam adding more masala to it.
2. Scenes between Tamim and Kalpika
My analysis: Prayanam movie is a very short and sweet love story which takes place in an airport. Comedy is the highlight and the main strength of the movie. Director Chandrasekhar Yeleti has selected a love story and added comedy to it the result of which has comeout well.
The movie is fast and racy because the entire movie is of only 2 hrs duration. Prayanam movie is sure to be successful because right now there are no other movies which can give a competition to it.
Performances: Manoj Kumar Manchu does the role of an hyper active kid who falls in love with a girl at first sight. He gave a good performance in this role. It looks as if we are seeing a cartoon character when see the acting of Manoj in Prayanam.
New girl Harika looks cute and has nothing much to act expect for walking all aroud the airport.
The highlight of the movie is comedy king Brahmanandam who once again excells in his role and makes the audience laugh, laugh and laugh.
Both the friends of Manoj, Janardhan and Tamim did a decent job in their roles. The heroine’s friend Kalpika is also good.
Music by Mahesh Shankar is average. It goes with the tempo of the movie.
Three cheers to Chandrasekhar Yeleti for making a decent film like Prayanam. His story, screenplay and direction are all commendable. He shot the entire film in an airport but never made the audience bored about it. He selected a cute love story and added nice comedy to it in the form of Brahmanandam.
Chandra Sekhar Yeleti proved once again that he is a film maker and not a money maker.
Story: Dhruv ( Manoj Kumar) and Harika (Harika) are two Indian tourists who are returning from Malaysia to India. They meet each other in Kaulalampur International Airport and Dhruv loves Harika in first sight. The remaining movie is all about how Dhruv wins his lady love.
Cast: Manchu Manoj Kumar Babu, Harika, Brahmanandam, Janardhan, Tamim, Kalpika and few others.
