A film poet earlier penned a beautiful lyric which goes like… ‘Kontha Kaalam Krindata Brahmadevuni Mungita Rendu Atmalu Korukunnavi O Varam… Dehaalennaina Maa Atma Maatram Okkatiga Cheyyi…’, which really means anyone should their ego when it comes to friendship in this world. A real friend will help us in need, so we too should be ready to do anything for that friend. There are no words to explain what is true friendship and even our experience is very less in this regard. At a time when the value of friendship is dropping due to some people, director Parasuram chose a subject for his film ‘Yuvatha’ to explain its value.
Veerababu (Nikhil) is the one who always wants to be happy and keep the flock around him is happy. He quarrels with his uncle in his village and reaches Hyderabad and decides to stay with his friends, Ajay, Subbu and Kiran. Like many bachelors, Babu’s friends too have some small ambitions. Ajay, being a software engineer wants to fly to the US, to catch the hand of his lover Madhavi (Monali Choudary), the house owner’s daughter. Subbu, who was an assistant director in films want to turn a director and direct a film with Pawan Kalyan as hero. Kiran wants to be a big police officer, but settles as a security guard. After reaching Hyderabad Babu gets an acquaintance with a girl called Baby (Aksha) over phone and loses his heart at first sight. On one occasion, Subbu gets injured and the doctors demand Rs 5 lakh for surgery. After all the trails to get money exhausted and with no option in sight, they borrow money from a local don Laddu. As they fail to return the money, Laddu threatens to kill the friends, they plead for two days’ time. With Kiran working in an Agency which fills money in ATMs, he suggests his friends that it would be easy to rob that agency. By the time they start, Kiran convinces them that he could not come along with them as anybody could identify him. So, Babu and Ajay only go to finish the work. By the time, they go to the agency, some others already loot it and Babu and Ajay get fixed in the trap. Who robbed the cash? Who committed the robbery? Whether Ajay and Babu were able to come out of the case or no? How far the love between Babu and Baby, Ajay and Madhav was successful? Whether Subbu was able to achieve his ambition to become a director? When Kiran didn’t’ rob the money why should he disappear? Answers to all these queries have to be seen on the screen.
Nikhil played the role of Rajesh in ‘Happy Days’, an odd boy among the students with a touch of mass element. That character clicked well. He improved his performance capabilities a lot with this film. Though the character appears very intimate to us as a boy next door kind, we could enjoy it. He played the role with a lot of ease on the lines of Raviteja. Right from the word start till the end, he appeared quite energetic. Whatever that had to be mentioned as highlight in ‘Yuvata’ it is Nikhil’s performance alone. He not only improved a lot, but gave the audiences a feel that once again, the Telugu film industry got yet another hero who could perform like Raviteja. Though a debutant, Aksha involved in the character and gave a nice performance. She appeared too cute in sme scenes and in some angles she reminded the audiences of Amisha Patel. Though Monika Choudary had no big character, she is okay in her role. ‘Amritam’ Sivanarayana, Jeeva, Jayaprakash Reddy, Srinivasa Reddy, Narsing Yadav did justice to their respective roles. Sayaji Shinde excelled in the character of Simran’s fan and entertained the audiences well. All those who played friends to Nikhil also gave a good performance.
We cook different recipes everyday. Though the vegetable is same, we cook it in different styles. Likewise, friendship is a very known subject on the silver screen, but the director moulded it in a different way with a novel movement. He spiced it up with light action backdrop by adding bank robbery. This helped in entertaining the audiences. Though the story had nothing much to boast off, the director succeeded in highlighting the delicate point in the film. After the director, the next technician to be complimented is Manisharma. In fact, the excellent tunes and background helped for the success of the film cent per cent. Moreover, the picturisation of songs also came out well. Camera work by Jaswant is good, while the dialogues penned by director himself are catchy.
The following dialogues got instance response from the audiences:
* “Jihad ante manam happy gaa untu andarini happy gaa unchatam†(Jihad really means one should be happy and make others happyâ€) – The dialogue by a terrorist.
* “Alochinchataaniki Nenu Chesedi Business Kaaduraa… Friendship†(I am not doing any business to think about something. It is friendship).
* “Iddaru Kalisthe Pudatham, Naluguru Mosthe Potham”
* The counter given by hero, when hero’s uncle puts Rs 200 on his head and asked public that anyone would ready to buy him.
Editing by Marthand K Venkatesh is visible. Lyrics penned by Krishna Chaitanya have good literary values. The production values of the film are also good and it was proved that the producer did not compromise at any time, though the film is being made on a low-budget.
The first 45 minutes of the film ran on a very fast pace and the narration was also gallops with the running of the story. But it slows down terribly and changes its track. After the interval bang, the audiences start feeling bore of watching a routine film, though they had a feel of watching a different movie. Slowly, the director was able to entertain the audiences again. He changes the screenplay and started gaining grip on the subject. The last 15 minutes befor the climax would help a lot for the success of the film. The film might run well in A and B Centres. Definitely, it’s a noticable film with good theme, if the logic is not a constraint for you.
