Shekhar Kammula…can I call him “The Rajamouli” of Multiplexes and of course Overseas…Because he never disappoints them in his genre…After a little deviation from his colorful movies with the “Leader”, He’s back to his school with “Life is beautiful” . So three guys and their girls….and then their stories…doesn’t that reminds you his "Happy days". Shekhar very much wants that and he brings a bigger canvas..'”A"nand Nagar Colony' to tell a much bigger story… Let’s go look at them….
Plot: Story revolves around 3 guys…Srinivas, Nagaraju and Abhi and their girls Paddu, Laxmi and Paru(Shriya) respectively. It’s filled with their love….pain…joy and everything that makes their lives beautiful….
Actors…
Actors come first here…All new faces and how good they delivered…..
Sudhakar acted as Nagaraju… He is full of ease in massy role…with nice Telangana accent. Man of heart he is….makes you laugh with his innocence and of course that fetches his love back to him. His perfect timing and ease will definitely make him stand out. His girl Laxmi played by Zara, is sensuous enough in half sarees, suits the role of “Vizag” girl..starts with “andi” and finishes with “raa”
It’s Abhijeet who acted as Srinivas….A wonderful role of responsible bro of two sisters…He starts slowly but soon gets on you…. Definitely made his mark. Shagun Kaur plays paddu….padmavati…hmm heard this name loads of times in movies…generally named after cute “maradals”…so paddu here too is very cute…she gets a good role too.
Then Abhi (Kaushik) very kiddy….reminds you of Tyson in Happy days as he goes behind Paru(Shriya)…He attracts with his on the shot brave acts, his magic and of course confidence..
And We have more dose of glamour in form of good old wines…Shriya and Anjala Javeri…Shriya plays a beauty Diva…She is born of Shekhar's affinity to “Senior-Junior” attachment…But nice to see her in better role than the movies she plays lead. And how come we have forgotten this “Preminchu kundam raa”’s sexy lady….Shekhar still remembers her..Anjala Zaveri has got very nice role of “Madam” and she is very much in the movie protecting the kids…
Finally Amala Akkineni …placed her last as she kind of plays a guest role….But she touches you deeply with the kind of character…should watch out that!! And little girl who plays her younger daughter is wonderful!!
Obviously “Life is Beautiful”….!!
The way Shekhar introduces each character is something that is always fresh… He brings all the guys and girls in one chain sequence…A good start. Within no time, you become member in the colony… you play in the rain with them…celebrate all the festivals ( just in one song) …. Amused by the romance…smile for their innocence and then feel their pain….fight for their colony ….everything brings out little nostalgia of something that’s missing. And then the role of Mother that runs in background for sure brings out the tears….Scenes depicting the importance of Mother tongue and mother shines...
All the songs are situational and Mickey J Mayor shines again…but could not outshine Happy Days…Poor guy…his director would have demanded for the same music again. Vijay C.Kumar…cinematographer of all Shekhar’s movies makes the movie colorful
And now back to “Happy Days”…
Time to get into the “Time Machine” ….Whether you like or not …you should go back 5 years, as Shekhar brings not just the flavor….but loads more from his previous film…Like the Senior-Junior, here we have tiff between “B-phase” colony and the “Gold-phase” ..This is fun for a while …but goes little heavier after a while. And you see Tyson-Shravs in Abhi-Paru(Shriya) and our beautiful Madam Anjala reminds you English madam “Kamilini”. Shekhar loves MaheshBabu and that’s proved again…Remember, Happy days was very fresh then…But repetition of the same might reduce the appraisal…Shekhar has so much to tell every time…He once again plunges into interval and the Climax in hurry, when he looks at his clock.
What makes Life Beautiful
LIB has its share of silly things….But still it makes you smile…bring out tears… carry the nostalgia…and finally passes the time pleasantly….Watch it for Shekhar’s magic re-created again with the fresh faces….And the message : It's the challenges in life that makes it beautiful
