I myself agree tat the tune for the line “KABHI KABHI ADITI……APNA LAGTA HAI” has been ripped off from Appudo Ippudo’s first line. WOW!!!!! Even Rehman has started copying tunes of other Miusic Directors. He has to be sued. Whether he is a famous and reputed one shouldn’t make a difference

Oh is it ? I didn’t about that narration pattern in “Idi… Maa Ashoggadi Love Story”. Abbas Tyrewala seems to have watched lots of Telugu movies. I was thrilled with the idea in “Jaane Tu”. Many are talking high about it. If he got inspired from this film, then the credit should go to some one else. Anywayz kudos to the creator. Thanks for pointing it out.

Dear Mr. Ashok,

Thanks for the reply.

And, absolutely, I had the same experience when I listened to the song, Kabhi Kabhi Aditi for some times. Another interesting thing about the narrative style taking off at the airport and friends narrating the love story to the girl, immediately reminds me of a Telugu Movie- Idi… Maa Ashoggadi Love Story, directed by yesteryear popular director, Suresh Krishna during the years 2003-04with Shiva Balaji in the lead, where friends of hero narrate the story in the similar fashion.

We should be proud about the Tollywood Industry for producing such novel narrative styles way back half a decade ago, or should sympathise the Telugu Audience for generously (blindly and innocently would be appropriate but hurt the audience’s sentiments) welcoming the script and the movie and accepting the monopoly of the Bollywood. Let us Say Three Cheers to the Audience,
Hip Hip Hurray….

Regards,

@ Mr. Hitchcock,

Nice to see your review on the review.

Your words carry lot of strength to your views.

I agree to all of your points. I was surprised to see the audience response towards it.

I was in a hurry while penning the review and missed out many points that I thought of putting in.

Regarding music I thought that I shouldn’t judge it with one hearing. Now on repeated listening,

I liked the music. However, though “KABHI KABHI ADITI” is good surprisingly it has shades of “APPUDO IPPUDO”

song of Devi Sri Prasad in Bommarillu.

Thanks for sharing your views.

Regards,
Ashok Varma

hey friend,
i have read quite a number of your reviews. And, this one as well. The review is good, but it could have been even better if you have reviewed few culture specific aspects that are prevalent only in metros such as mumbai and delhi, where the boy-girl friendship has some stretched limits that are not often seen in hyderabad. This makes the movie unrealistic to some viewers. Still, the review holds the readers’ interest. Yes, the Genelia’s brother character is well filmed, but that takes the readers back to the Ishaan’s character in Taare Zameen Par- Aamir’s influence. And the Friendship scenes picturised remember us of Dil Chahta Hai (DCH), yet another Aamir’s influence. And, the sacrifice of Meghana and the conversation between Imran and her, is another resemblance of DCH, where Deepa (girl who loves Aamir) talks to Akshay Khanna who explains her about love and relationship. And, Sushanth’s character is a replica of Rohit in DCH, and the tug-of-war between Jai (Imran) and Sushanth has striking resemblances with Aamir and Rohit’s characters in DCH.
I dont think much of the movie except the ‘Kabhi Kabhi Aditi’ song, to be rated as 6/10. Instead it should be 3/10.
I have reviews the review, and no offence meant.
