Gudipoodi Srihari Review

tell a friend

The title can hardly be attributed to the character portrayed by the hero.

This senseless but main story lasts a couple of reels at the end. Rest is all fun and frolic in the college campus. Even the hero's father (Chandramohan) becomes target of stale jokes, reflecting the bad taste with which the subject is written.

The hero's name is Ratna (Tarakaratna), a college going boy. By the time he and his loud-mouthed friends, complete one round of cheap jokes, Sandhya (Jivida), enters his life, as the tenant in the house opposite.

Ratna befriends and falls in love with her. But all is not so smooth as he realises that Sandhya is engaged to be married to another man.

And unintentionally, he becomes the cause for her marriage to be cancelled. Meanwhile Ratna's and Sandhya's parents aware of Ratna's love, arrange for their marriage.

But once again, the wedding ceremonies come to a halt as Sandhya refuses to go ahead as she blames Ratna for all her problems.

Now begins mission repentance, lot of drama before the story drags to its happy ending.

Director Uppalapati Narayana Rao known for his imaginative filmmaking lets us down this time, mainly due to bad story and dialogue.

Added to this, the background score is highly imbalanced. The sound devours the dialogue, especially in crucial parts. There is a loud hum of a base string that makes things more difficult.

Music composer Keeravani, known to have better musical sense, appears to be out of step. Though he has certain amount of ease, Tarakaratna has miles to go, before he can establish himself as an accomplished actor.

One thing is sure. The script did not suit him. Jivida as Sandhya looks lifeless throughout, except in the last couple of scenes when she has to become aggressive.
