Krishnamma Kalipindhi Iddarini Review
Story:
Krishna (Sudhir Babu) and Radha (Nanditha) are childhood friends who grow and study together. The go to same school and college. Krishna falls for Radha and when he is about to propose her, destiny force their separation and Krishna part ways with Radha for a career.
They once again meet in engineering but when he gets a good job. But all the times, destiny has different plans for Krishna. Rest of the story is all about what happens to their love and why they are being separated for so many times.
Performances:
Krishnamma Kalipindhi Iddarini will end up as the most memorable performance of Sudhir Babu in his little career so far. He did a very good job in emotional scenes that come in the climax. Nanditha is cute and complemented Sudhir Babu very much.
They share a very good chemistry. Pragathi is superb as an evil mother. Rest of the characters are fine. Sapthagiri and Posani were forced to take care of the comedy but they are totally wasted. Rana and Naga Chaitanya appeared in little cameos.
Technical Performances:
Director R.Chandru managed to showcase love very well in different time zones. The emotional content is very well handled with the only problem of screenplay going haywire in the second half. The director unnecessarily tried to embed unwanted commercial elements which backfired. Some of the songs totally interrupt the flow of the film.
Despite the issues, the first half of the film is very vibrant with the age old college love story while second half has good emotional depth. Cinematography is excellent. Music is good but the placement of songs is a big let down. Production values of Lagadapati Sridhar are very good. Editing should have been a lot better in the second half. The college scenes were quite lengthy and can be chopped off.
Plus Points:
- Chemistry of the lead pair
- Good Emotional Scenes
- Climax Twist
Minus Points:
- Unnecessary Commercial elements
- Dragged Screenplay in second half
Final Say:
Krishnamma Kalipindhi Iddarini with some shortcomings here and there, will end up as an average fare for the audience. Those in love and admire love, will enjoy the high emotional content over different timelines.
