Konchem Kottaga - 5/10 Star Hotel
Menu:
Cast: Venkat, Tulip Joshi, Ali, Ashish Vidyarthi, Benerjee
Story: K Anand
Music: Raju Rao
Director: Raju Rajendra Prasad
Banner: Sapara Arts
Soup/Starters:
After a break, Venkat comes up with this film on his home banner. He showed good confidence prior to its release. Right from the title this film could create some interest that it would have something to look for.
It gives good title justification and is really konchem kottagaa but chala koratagaa.
The film is all about a house. Tulip feels that she is alone in the house. But she doesn’t know about Venkat’s presence. He also doesn’t know that Tulip is in the same house. It is definitely an interesting plot, to showcase them spending time in the house without knowing that there is another person in the house. Added to this murder mystery gave enough kick to the plot. As far as the story is concerned it is an innovative thriller. But missed out many elements in retaining the interest levels of the audience.
Spicy Items:
– The story is the main strength of the film. It is a novel idea. Anand should be commended for coming up with a different story. First half showed a great difference to normal films. It is devoid of dialogues.
– The interval block is very good.
– Ali’s reason of stepping into the house is apt. Tulip’s reason of staying in the house is a very good thought but a bit unconvincing.
– The ideas used to create interest in the audience and in establishing the plot are good.
Eg: When Tulip and Venkat enter into the same room and come out with out any surprise, surprises audience.
– Editing is good.
– There are many interesting camera angles which are much needed for a thriller.
– Tulip Joshi is cute and cool in her role. She deserves much better stand in the industry. This film might help TULIP, TO LEAP in her career.
– Back ground score is good at parts.
Dry Items:
– Slow narration. Repetition of similar scenes bores the viewer in the first half. This put off the levels of a good idea. ALONE factor was shown in A LOAN fashion covering installments. Crisp story telling was required.
– The story looks good till the climax. But when the suspense gets revealed it puts off the entire feel of a good story. Atlast it seems to be a normal point which is written in an intelligent fashion. Had this climax point been a bit different too then this film would have created wonders.
– Dialogues in the second half are unimpressive and are pretty normal.
– Venkat leaves no mark of him in the film. His DICTION is AWRY. He should at first refer to voice modulation DICTIONARY.
Fingerbowl:
It seems to be an ultra low budget film. Entire film runs in the same house. There is no single outdoor scene. It ends in less than 2 hours. It is a good trial with some trailing things. It would have been a great story for a short film but for mainstream cinema its content is not enough.
Remarks:
This film needs great patience and interest to watch. It is not easy to stay tuned to the first half of a film with no dialogues. But if you have flair for watching different kind of films then this is a fair film. It is a good attempt as it succeeded at-tempt.
