Shivam Telugu Movie
Shiva (Ram) is an energetic guy who offers to do everything to save the lovers in problems. He almost makes it a habit to get marry the lovers who face problems from their parents. One fine day, he happens to see Tanu (Raashi Khanna) falls flat for her instantly. He followers her to her village and bumps in huge problems there with couple of gangs. What happens next in his love story forms the rest.
Ram and Raashi Khanna were apt fit for the lead roles but they are totally let off by an amateur debut director who failed to lead from the front. The happy go lucky character is a tailor made role for Ram but even then he failed to make it count at many places. Raashi is chubby and glamorous but her histronics and dialogue delivery is extremely poor. Vineet Reddy is totally disappointing as villain while Abhimanyu Singh is okay. Brahmanandham, Prabhas Seenu, Srinivas Reddy try their level best induce laughs with forced comedy. Fish Venkat's comedy is partly
good. Rest all needs no mention.
If there is a research done on how a debutante director can mess up his first project, Srinivas Reddy should be consulted straight away. It is not one, you see a bunch of blunders every where. Firstly, the story, we have seen some thousands of films with the same subject in Telugu. When you chose such subject, you are expected to come up with a decent execution. But that did not happen with Shivam. The film so long that you think it may never end. When it appears like it is done, out of no where, a stupid flashback and an outdated climax is brought in.
Devi Sri Prasad had come up with an excellent album and also all of them are very well shot. Back ground score is just okay. Editing is worse easily a good half an hour can be trimmed. Production values are very good.
Shivam is that kind of film which Ram should not at least dream of signing it. And after watching it, I should be dragging you out of theaters even if you are ready to watch it.
