Story

Kumar (Siddharth) an IT professional stays away from females in his office and even requests his bosses not to put him in teams that include females. Kumar avoids females and turns female hater after he had bad experiences with them since his childhood.

However his life takes sudden change after he meets Sanjana (Hansika), a new employee in his organisation. Though he falls for her, he couldn’t express himself due to fear and in the meantime, he faces competition from his charming and handsome colleague George (Ganesh Venkatraman). To win sanjana he in his desperation meets Love Guru Premji (Brahmanandam). What happens next should be enjoyed on screen.

Performance

Siddharth came with a neat performance. He looked like Lover Boy once again with his cute looks and expressions. Hansika is a big disappointment in the film as she looked older to Siddharth. Even in songs she disappointed a lot. Her role did not have scope to perform.

Brahmanandam is excellent and created laughing riot as Love Guru Premji. Minus Brahmanandam, the film has nothing to see. Samantha in her little role thrilled all, while Rana came and supported Brahmi.

Technical

Editing could have been better in the second half. None of the songs is enjoyable. Cinematography is ok. Director could have created some romantic comedy scenes between Hansika and Siddharth.

Analysis

Director Sunder chose a script which is routine. However he tried to treat it differently, giving comedy flavor to it. In the first half, his treatment is ok as Brahmanandam’s comedy made everyone forget the other drawbacks. The moment he went and the director came to the story and tried to bring it down to the logical conclusion, his drawbacks came out into open.

Director failed to create interest in the film with lack of romantic scenes and love elements between Hansika and Siddharth. Simple storyline and predictable climax are the drawbacks. Though the climax seemed ok, nearing towards it like pregnant experiencing pains.

Final Verdict

Except for Brahmanandam, Something Something has ‘Nothing’ new for movie lovers.

Peddi Delays Raise Concerns Over Director’s Planning

There is growing concern in the industry that some directors are putting producers under immense pressure by failing to stick to schedules, especially on big-budget films.

A case in point is “Peddi,” starring Ram Charan. Mounted on a భారీ budget, the film is expected to deliver a strong pan-India impact. Naturally, such a project demands precise planning and strict timelines. However, reports suggest that director Buchi Babu Sana has struggled to meet deadlines.

Despite having nearly four years after Uppena to prepare for the project, the film is reportedly still incomplete with just about a month left for release. Contrary to earlier reports, not one but two songs are yet to be shot, including an item number. This delay has raised concerns, especially since Ram Charan is said to have been consistently providing his dates as planned, while the producer continues to invest heavily.

Adding to the pressure, international exhibition standards—such as those followed by IMAX chains in the US—require final content delivery at least 10 days prior to release. This means the film should ideally be locked, censored, and ready well in advance. Given the current pace, there are doubts about whether these deadlines can be met without complications or penalties.

The stakes are particularly high for Ram Charan, who is aiming for a major pan-India success. A film of this scale cannot rely solely on regional performance; it needs a strong nationwide promotional push and record-breaking collections. Simply earning ₹300–400 crore may not be sufficient considering the budget involved.

There are also discussions about whether bringing in Sukumar—under whom Buchi Babu Sana previously worked—could help refine the film. However, involving him at this late stage could potentially lead to further delays depending on the changes suggested.

Ultimately, for a film like Peddi to succeed, coordination and clarity between the director, producer, and lead actor are crucial. This situation serves as a reminder that handling large-scale projects requires not just creative vision but also disciplined execution and time management.
