Chamkaisi Chindi Udayisi

Nobody expected that Komal Kumar's most ambitious film 'Chamkaisi Chindi Udaisi' would not only turn an average fare but a mindless comedy which has nothing new to offer.

'Chamkaisi Chindi Udaisi' is inspired from the English hit 'Something about Mary'. However Komal has added his own bits to give himself more mileage as a hero. Komal has fulfilled his long cherished dream of becoming a mass hero through this film. The story is about Seenu (Komal) who falls in love with a girl called Kamala. But he is disappointed when the girl leaves for Malaysia. Meanwhile, another person finances Seenu to fly over to Malaysia to collect details about a girl (once again the same Kamala!). Seenu traces Kamala in Malaysia and bluffs that he is an architect. Meanwhile, Ganesh also comes to Malaysia in search of Seenu and Kamala. By now Seenu is deeply in love with her. What happens next forms the crux of the film.

Though the film is a comedy, its major drawback is its script and narration. The film sure has its share of some enjoyable and fun filled moments, but the rest is boring as well as lagging. The film fails miserably in engaging the audience particularly in the second half. Even actors like Komal and Sharan couldn't save the film, thanks to an uninteresting script written by Komal himself.

It's a treat to watch Ashok Kashyap's camera work particularly in the songs. Other than the cinematography, the only thing likeable is Komal's acting. Komal carries the film entirely on his shoulders. Nidhi Subbaiah looks glamorous in songs. Sharan, Rahul, Asif Farooqi, Shobharaj, Kiran and others though have done their bit has nothing much to do to in front of Komal.

Overall, 'Chamkaisi Chindi Udaisi' is an average film. Watch it if you are a Komal fan.

Once again banking on age old theme this film 'Bandhu Balaga' is targeted at family audience. The concept is very old and the making deserved to be better. The performances are very good the songs are placed at right time that has lot of meaning in it. The cinematography is not up to the mark and length of the film could have been pruned. Story writer Janardhana Maharshi has rehashed the Kannada film 'Odahuttidavaru' and cleverly got the nod of producers. When you look at the film at the outset a lot of changes could have been brought in to the film.

Subramanya (Shivarajakumar) the soft spoken darling of village people has a fond sister Annapurneshwari (Tejaswini). He wants the attendance of his brothers, sister in laws who are living in three different countries for the marriage of Annapurneshwari. The brothers in turn want a signature of Subramanya so that Rs.600 crore huge properties come to their custody. Subramanya born to the second wife of affluent Srinivasamurthy believes in good relations rather than money. To get the intimacy and courtesy he is forced to apply some breaks for his signature. The Indian made foreign brothers in the village torture Subramanya but the good deeds win. They all transform in better ways but the second wife of Srinivasamurthy – step mother of Subramanya and mother of three changed brothers take a drastic step.

Shivarajakumar hairstyle is not supporting his face. He has very few emotional scenes and in one place he stands without moving delivers dialogue looks shabby. The punching dialogues normally reserved for hero goes to actor Doddanna. Shashikumar, Dharma, Sumesh, Hema Chaudhary are good in their roles. Poonam Kaur in her first Kannada cinema is promising.

Hamsalekha has written two lovely songs and scored it melodiously. Ramesh Babu Cinematography should have been better. Director Naganna has to change his outlook in directing this kind of movie.
