They were the so called Children Magazines, which succeeded in guiding a whole new generation in the paths of finding our roots, and imparted learning to differentiate between the good’s and the bad’s, in every day of life. Apart from some good performances, the only saving grace for the film is its novel concept.Long before Comics or Graphic Novels made their foray to India, there were some Indian brands which captivated the mind of young and grown alike. The slow pace and poor entertainment levels just spoil the experience further. As a result, what you get is a hodge-podge mix of some short stories, rather than a cohesive and complete film. ‘Chandamama Kathalu’ has too many stories and too little screen time for each actor. He has chosen a novel concept, but he has failed in the execution part completely. Praveen Sattaru’s direction is not up to the mark. Dialogues are very flat and there is nothing exciting or memorable in the lines. It is very tough to edit a film like this and the editor has done an ok job. The film is very predictable and despite being an anthology film, one does not get the feeling of freshness that should have come from such a story.Ĭinematography is strictly average.
CHANDAMAMA STORIES IN TELUGU MOVIE
The movie is not a typical commercial entertainer and regular movie lovers will find the movie to be quite boring. Because of the presence of too many characters, no one actor got a chance to showcase his/her talent. Perhaps, fewer stories and characters would have helped considerably. Apparently, the director used algebra for allotting screen time to actors. Just as you start connecting to one character, it is cut off in a flash and the focus shifts to another character. The problem with this film is that there are too many stories and no single actor/thread manages to engage the viewer significantly. Some of the scenes and emotions have been handled in a mature way. The philosophical aspects like the author being hit by a slip of paper which contains a sloka from Bhagawad Geetha etc. Aamani and Naresh are ok in their respective roles. Krishnudu is good as the guy who is desperate to get married.
Kishore has given a subtle performance as a writer who is struggling for money. She is quite convincing in the role of Lisa Smith. Lakshmi Manchu has performed well in a role that does not have much to offer. What happens in the end is what this film is about. All of these characters finally end up as story written by a journalist (Kishore) who is desperate for money to cure his daughter. A village guy who decides to stalk a girl finally ends up marrying her when elders find out.Ī newly widowed woman (Aamani) rediscovers the joys of life when an old flame (Naresh) makes an entry into her life.
