Sree Vishnu’s latest film, #Single, has hit the big screens with plenty of buzz. Read on to find out how it holds up in our review.
Story:
Vijay (Sree Vishnu) is a bank employee and he falls for Purva Nettem (Ketika Sharma) at first glance. He tries to meet her to make her fall in love. In the meantime, Harini (Ivana) follows Vijay as she loves him. This continues until Vijay comes to know about who is Harini, and Purva about Vijay. What happened later in Vijay’s life is the story need to be seen in the main movie.
Plus Points:
Sree Vishnu is once again back with his hilarious comedy timing and his funny takes using the trending dialogues and memes. Vennela Kishore joins him in delivering comedy. Both of them fill the screens with comedic scenes that evokes genuine laughs.
Ketika Sharma ditches glamourous angle in this movie and acts in a simple role and she does it well. The quite opposite is Ivana’s role, a mischievous girl who tries to woo Sree Vishnu. Their combination scenes work well.
The comedy scenes involving Sree Vishnu and Vennela Kishore brought a lot of laughs in both halves and they are sure to make one enjoy the film though it offers nothing major in terms of story.
VTV Ganesh delivers laughs whenever he appears on screen. The remaining artists are okayish in their roles.
Minus Points:
The comedy clicks really well but at the time, the background is also important, means a proper narrative. #Single lacks it and mostly relies on comedy scenes. Yes, they work really well, but could have been standout if there is a strong narrative that gives a birth to the jokes.
The first half starts off well and quickly goes down because of the slow pace in terms of content. The same happens with the second half.
Ketika Sharma and Ivana characters could have better developed and in the meantime, a proper structure to the narrative and the proceedings should be there to make it most enjoyable film. Unfortunately, the movie lacks it.
VTV Ganesh could have better used than the space given to him. Rajendra Prasad’s episode is just for minutes and the emotions don’t work much in the comedy flowing narrative.
The songs doesn’t have much impression as they can’t be remembered once the show is done.
Technical Aspects:
Director Caarthick Raju’s intention to fill the whole film with comedy and deliver it is fine but at the same time he made the story take a back seat. He could have worked on story and its screenplay.
Cinematography looks neat and so is the score. Editing by KL Praveen is okay but trimming a few scenes in second half could have helped the film better. Production values look rich enough.
Verdict:
On the whole, #Single is a decent comedy watch from start to finish, thanks the hilarious comedy by both Sree Vishnu and Vennela Kishore. They both made the movie enjoyable and in the meantime, Ketika and Ivana serve their purpose. On the flipside, not so engaging story, and some unnecessary scenes and proceedings make it a little bit dull at places. If you enjoy comedy films it’s a great watch this weekend.
