Story: A reluctant Krishna (Krisshna) is forced to marry Meera (Swetha), a doctor, after his mother falls ill. Post- marriage, he starts getting anonymous phone calls suggesting that his wife is cheating on him. He starts doubting Meera and when she gets pregnant, it only fuels his suspicions.Movie Review : Taking on an effortless storyline, debutant director Krisshna has get a hold of a movie which seems like a lost opportunity chiefly as a result of poor execution and unconvincing performances. Yes, he's a debutant without a exposure to filmmaking, but that alone can't be an excuse for shoddy storytelling. If only he had tightened the film’s running time to under two hours (one entire flashback sequence within the second half, which takes quite a bit of the running time, feels totally redundant), this might has been a good film on marital relationships. However the sloppy editing makes it a butt-numbing experience.
Also, in place of focussing at the husband-wife relationship, the director spends more time on Krishna, whose character is etched fuzzily. One moment he's portrayed because the epitome of righteousness and the very next he becomes a psychotic, who talks to himself in front of the mirror. And as a performer, Krisshna comes a cropper in the course of the emotional scenes.
In fact, you are going to guffaw seeing a few of his reactions in the course of the contrived climax.Thankfully, Krisshna appears to be acutely aware of the truth that he isn’t hero material and spares us the song-and-dance routine, which comes across as a relief. The film has only two songs which play out mostly within the background. But on the same time, he can’t help having scenes or dialogues which are attempt at self glorification (specifically, the instant he chooses to insert his name within the credits). And needlessly takes a dig at ‘Power Star’ Dr Srinivasan, which only comes across as ironic!
The scenes have a powerful hint of TV serials, that's only enhanced by the unpolished visuals and melodramatic acting. The sensation you might be left with in any case is that of getting watched eight episodes of a mega serial at the big screen with out a break.
