CBFC :  U

GENRE :  Romantic Comedy

PLOT :-
         
       The film opens up with a description about 'Talking' and citing it with the people's day-to-day life in Panimalai, which is located in the hills of western ghats. Aravind, a young man who loves to talk with anyone will be marketing a glue product door by door through his talented speech. And one day, panimalai saw many people losing their vocals suddenly which started off with an RJ as reported by prime TV. Aravind will be visiting a hospital for the checkup where he meets doctor anjana and a friendship develops between them by the talks. Health minister sundarlingam has an allergy of talking to the media reporters and he will be questioned about the vocal disease. He informs that it's a dumb flu spreading all over panimalai. Aravind, anjana & many more will be heading for a talk regarding an important decision in their life and by the time government issues an order that no one in panimalai should talk as the flu has a power to kill one's life and it spreads only because of talking. And from there, the remaining portions cover their life without talking and it also shows how all the problems are solved finally.

PERFORMANCES(ON-SCREEN):-
           
             Dulquer salman(aravind), a well known young malayalam star makes his tamil debut and his acting shows that he is not a simple regional actor. His confidence level in every scene brings his capability of becoming a star in any language. And as usual, Nazriya(anjana) is super cute and her pairing with dulquer looked apt for the movie. Madhubala(vidhya) the 'Roja' actress still looks beautiful in a mother/former writer character but this small act will not be remained by the audience as she needs much more stronger comeback. Pandiarajan(sundarlingam) suits very good to his comic health minister role especially in answering to the press. Robo shankar(mattai ravi) gave a humour relief side by side as tamil nadu drinker's association head. John vijay('nuclear star' boomesh), Arjunan(sathish), the news reader, nuclear star fan club members and many more were casted & they helped for the film's narration in funny sequences.
           
TECHNICAL :-

             Editing by Abhinav sunder nayak is neat and he is clear with the cuts because as many characters and their paths will be a confusion for editors. Art works and sound design should be lauded as a good support for the film. Cinematography by Soundararajan is eye pleasing and the munnar greeny locals automatically brings a cool climate into the theatre. Sean roldan is trying to give some different tunes to the film as a Music composer and the background score is alright as the re-recording has a huge important responsibility in the second half portions.

DIRECTION :-

            Story by balaji mohan seems untouched by any writer as this kind of concept is new in kollywood and the film had a few light-hearted dialogues coming over the narration. Screenplay by balaji mohan is interesting until the introduction of characters. After his exciting intermission part, it becomes slow and it may be dull for someone because of the silent film narration. This is balaji mohan's second venture after his hit film kadhalil sodhapuvadhu yeppadi and this time as a director his work is good enough but still for a sure hit he should wait for the viewers reception on his different thinking.

VERDICT :-

           "VAAYAI MOODI PESAVUM IS A WORTHY ATTEMPT FROM BALAJI MOHAN & THIS WILL BE A TALKATIVE FLICK AMONG THE NON-TYPICAL COMEDY LOVERS".

RATING :-   3/5

RACE GURRAM(TELUGU) MOVIE REVIEW by Srinath :

                               
                    The movie was released on 11th April'14 worldwide in 1050+ screens. Nallamalapu(bujji) and venkateswara rao produced the film under sri lakshmi narasimha productions.

CBFC :  U/A

GENRE :  Masala/Family Drama

PLOT :-
         
       The film starts with the character narration of two brothers namely Ram & Lakshman along with the crawling titles. From their childhood, both will be fighting for everything due to their egoistic nature where Lakshman never minds the thing that his brother is an A.C.P. In the mean time, lakshman will fall in love with a girl named spandana by noting the strange character that she & her family follows. Ram will be searching for a strong case to arrest a rowdy called Siva reddy and once he got the case file in his hands he will be rushing to stop siva reddy's election nomination. On knowing it, siva will plan to kill ram but it will be disturbed by lakshman accidentally. And, the rest will have their rivals to win the clash which involves the usage of political power.

PERFORMANCES(ON-SCREEN):-

            Allu Arjun(lucky alias lakshman) is back with a bang after his average flick iddarammayilatho where he improved his performance of humour along with action further more from his earlier films. He is known for his dancing skills but the makers utilized it partially. Shaam(ram) has a complete screen presence as a cop & he did it in a bold look. Shruti haasan(spandana) is a beautiful white doll travelling in the film like a statue and dances suddenly like a glamour queen in the songs. Ravi kishan(siva reddy), the antagonist is average. Comedians Ali(doctor) and Brahmanandam(kill bill pandey) comes off surprisingly in the second half where the former with his well known 'kick' film character & the later as a funny cop with his mass actions make us laugh loudly. Many big artists such as prakash raj in a funny father role, sayaji shinde, ms narayana,the home minister artist and many more were used to the correct situations.

TECHNICAL :-

             Editing by Gowtham raju is Crispy. Art direction in songs by narayana reddy & Visual effects are attractive. Stunts by ram-lakshman has no logic but it will make the masses shout on seeing it. Cinematography by manoj paramahamsa is at the richest level and this should be his best than his earlier work in shankar-vijay's nanban. Music by S.S. Thaman has two ground shaking folk numbers and the melodies worked with the camera's wonder. The Background score is raising to its peak in action-thriller sequences and falls ordinary elsewhere.

DIRECTION :-

            Story written by vakkantham vamsi doesn't make it fresh to the viewers and it is almost predictable throughout the film where the Dialogues penned by deepak-vikram have a wide reach and the term'dhevuda(oh god!)' was used repeatedly. The Screenplay is very very entertaining especially in the second half which has some racy pre-climax portions. There is a lack of some big crisis part and presence of unwanted songs in post-interval but these will fail in front of surender reddy's screenplay treatment. Surender reddy's direction part reminds us his brilliant execution that he had carried out in his successful film kick and this one is more stylish due to the stylish star's team up with surender to give this entertainer for fans.

VERDICT :-

          "RACE GURRAM(RACE HORSE) HAS THE ESSENTIAL HORSE POWER TO RUN & FULFIL THE SUMMER TELUGU BOX-OFFICE".

RATING :-  3.5/5
