VEDAM - What a Movie!

Really...Wow, Superb.....I cant express my feelings on this "excellent" movie, more than this :) ..... Hat's off to Krish(director/writer)

Its good to see that, telugu movie makers are thinking very differently these days and on top of that viewers are accepting them big time.....recent examples were...Leader, YMC, Prasthanam and now VEDAM.

Coming back to this movie....
I did not feel, atleast one scene in the movie is unnecessary or stupid....Absolutely brilliant! Especially the screenplay. Well, you may think this movie's theme is inspired(or copied) from Crash...yes, but, from my point of view, its just got a bit inspired, but both are quite different in the story line.

From the day this movie was announced, I was thinking, what kind of movie this might be? and after watching the first trailer/teaser I thought, I got a feel of story....but, no. Krish(director/writer) went a step ahead and presented this movie in a way different style(at least for telugu cinema).

Here, I want to talk on the performances(one by one)....dont know with whom should I start...everyone in this movie acted their best I can say. Okay, I will go with the order they were introduced in the movie.

Manoj Manchu: First of all, I could not understand, why they gave a statement at the start of the movie that his will be a guest role, when he got a equal footage as others?....anyway, He really looked like a Rockstar(as his character is) and ofcourse he was brilliant in action episodes.

Nagayya: This old man.....he will make you cry with his acting. Superb acting for a first timer(by the way, if you don't know, this actor was found on the road side to the director).

Anushka: I could not believe she can do such kind of roles with such ease. What can I say, she was not acting she was living the character ;)

Manoj Bajpayee: What a brilliant actor he is. His acting skills as a muslim guy who is tortured by a police man who does not like muslims is mind blowing.

Allu Arjun: Last but not least, Allu Arjun. He was stunning. His comedy in the first half and his acting in the second half is SUPER!

Others: Satyam Rajesh,police man, lady who acted as Nagayya's Daughter-in-law and Raghu Babu stand out and others are good.


Screen Play, dialogues and Direction: Krish did a absolute brilliant job in handling the 5 characters without loosing the soul of the movie. Ofcourse, you can see shades of Crash in the screenplay, but, I liked the way the director joined the 5 stories
towards the end. Direction was top notch with some ultimate diaglogues.

Music and BGM: Big bow to Keeravani. His music(songs) and BGM in the movie raise the movie's tempo in every scene. He did a brilliant job.

Cinematography: Special mention to him(guess its Gnanasekhar). His camera angles...especially the camera angles of entier chain snatching

episode(camera on the bike to take the close up shots etc)

On a whole....you know what, JUST GO AND WATCH IT....DONT MISS IT!
