Praveen Sattaru is back with another Love entertainment flick after LBW.
Story –
Sanjay (Sundeep) and Tanvi (Regina) become friends on a condition that the latter should agree to love the former in six months. After six months feelings towards each other changes and what happens to their love story is what this film is about.
Performances –
Sundeep is natural. He is very good in the confrontation scenes with Regina. He is a decent actor with loads of confidence. Regina is the show stealer. She has good looks and can act well. This combination is a rarity in Telugu films. She can go miles if she picks right films. MS Narayana’s comedy is okay and Vennela Kishore did a cameo. Tagubothu Ramesh is fine and rest of the star cast played their parts well.
Technical Performance –  
As this is a love story, the colors are vibrant and it has cool locales. Art department and Camera department gelled well. Dialogues are alright and editing is adequate. Technical crew has been led by Mickey J Meyer’s music, which is the major asset for this film. Production values are good.
Director did a decent job in ably handling his resources. He has a different style and approach towards film and that is evident in all the scenes. His debut film scores on the content front and this one falls short of expectations, especially for the people that have seen LBW.
Analysis –
Director opened the story in a funny flashback format which is nice. Hero’s approach towards love and Heroine’s clarity have been explained well. First half races ahead until the interval point and later on it gets stuck for a while.
This is a typical story that doesn’t move ahead and fixes to a point and moves back and forth. Dealing with such subjects is a huge risk. Director challenged himself, but couldn’t come out with desired results. Last half hour of the film didn’t click as the comedy scenes and the climax backfired.
Despite the short comings, Routine Love Story scores due to the freshness in narration and good performances topped by cool musical score. Audiences who love to watch routine films with different approach can watch it. RLS appeals to young audience.
Verdict: Can be watched once

Illuminating Indian Cinema’s Global Horizon with Record-Breaking Success

December 21, 2024

In the expansive galaxy of Indian cinema, where only a select few stars manage to shine brightly enough to leave a mark on the international stage, Superstar Prabhas has emerged as one of the most luminous constellations. With an ever-growing fanbase and back-to-back blockbusters, Prabhas has solidified his place as a global phenomenon, now standing shoulder-to-shoulder with Bollywood heavyweights such as Shah Rukh Khan (SRK), Aamir Khan, and Salman Khan.

Prabhas has achieved a remarkable milestone, joining the prestigious list of Indian stars with films that have surpassed $20 million in overseas collections. With two films—Baahubali: The Conclusion and Saaho—crossing this benchmark, he shares the fourth position with icons Rajinikanth and Ranbir Kapoor. This feat highlights Prabhas’s growing influence on the global cinematic landscape, a trajectory that began with the monumental success of the Baahubali series and continues to gain momentum.

At the helm of the list are Bollywood legends, led by SRK, who boasts six films that have achieved this remarkable feat. Following him are Aamir Khan with four films and Salman Khan with three. These stalwarts have long dominated the overseas market, but the emergence of stars like Prabhas signifies a shift in the dynamics of Indian cinema’s global reach.

Prabhas’s rise is a testament to the changing landscape of Indian cinema. With his unique ability to transcend linguistic and regional barriers, he has successfully transformed himself from a Tollywood superstar into an international icon. The unparalleled success of Baahubali: The Conclusion not only set new benchmarks for Indian films overseas but also redefined the perception of South Indian cinema on a global scale. Following this, Saaho further reinforced his stature, proving that Prabhas’s box-office power extends well beyond Indian borders.

As Indian cinema continues to evolve, Prabhas’s trajectory suggests that more milestones are on the horizon. With a robust lineup of upcoming projects, including the highly anticipated Adipurush, Salaar, and Project K, he is poised to further elevate Indian cinema’s presence in international markets. Each of these films carries the potential to not only break box-office records but also set new standards for storytelling and visual grandeur.

The overseas market for Indian cinema has grown exponentially over the years, thanks to the efforts of stars like Prabhas, whose charisma and universal appeal resonate with audiences across the globe. As he continues to carve his unique path toward global superstardom, it’s clear that the future of Indian cinema’s international success is brighter than ever.

The coming years promise an exciting chapter, where stars like Prabhas will lead the charge in expanding Indian cinema’s footprint worldwide. With his incredible momentum and a slew of high-profile releases, Prabhas is not just shining in the global cinematic firmament—he is becoming one of its guiding stars.
