Prayanam (Journey):
Of the lot of movies that I have seen so far, by far the best indian movie. I went expecting nothing, some good reviews but none that I trusted. The movie was hilarious. Truly different from most of the telugu movies I have watched. The entire movie is shot in the KL airport. Its hard to maintain peoples attention with a very small cast and uninteresting locales but the director did it. The movie is a cute love story with enormous doses of good comedy by Brahmanandam and a bunch of unknown actors. What I liked most about the movie was that it was very real...very real in that we all have this tendency to behave in a filmy way. So we can believe that in 2hrs we can make someone fall in love, it takes some conversation and one grand gesture. It felt so good to watch some really good comedy in telugu...nothing raunchy or in your face...very clean slapstick humor. The hero and heroine take sometime to grow on you but in the end they definitely win you over and have you rooting for their romance. The smaller actors are so funny...no one in the movie looks extodinarily good...they all look like regular people you could meet and have a good conversation with...I had a really good time watching this movie...probably one of the lucky few who saw it considering I was only one of the ten people in the theater.
