Tharun Bhascker, BV Nandini Reddy, Nag Ashwin and Sankalp Reddy have written
stories that are refreshing, breaking stereotypes and paving the way for
modern cinema. This anthology is sure to be a winner if he focuses more on
making his script interesting and unpredictable. While Nag Ashwin and
Sankalp Reddy's films are unique, Ramula Tarun Basker gives chills down his
spine.
Don't forget that the woman in this story is beautiful. Saanve Megghana,
Eesha Rebba, Lakshmi Manchu, Shruti Haasan and Amala Paul play nuanced
characters who refuse to obey the rules.
Ramula
Director is Tarun Basker
Lakshmi Manchu, Saanve Megghana
For someone who looks at this anthology without hope, Ramula will hold many
surprises. This film tells the story of a girl who loves freedom Ramula
(Saanve Megghana), who falls in love with the son of a local MLA. They made
TikTok videos together and never missed a chance to meet. The problems
started when Ramula realized that her lover had no intention of marrying
her. Ramula was annoyed by this and tried to end her life. Then he met a
local politician, Svarupa, who promised to do something right. But will a
political agenda save Ramula or endanger her life?
This film tells the story of how most of us are involved in other people's
programs through no fault of our own and how life goes well. Be it acting,
directing, setting design, or voice - this is a film that talks a lot
without saying much. Saanve Megghana speaks in a rural Telangan dialect and
plays a character who is bold but prone to perfection. Ramula was ranked
fourth as the first short film and is a perfect fit for the rest of the
story in the anthology. It is raw and authentic and will appeal to the
audience.
Peace
Director is Nandini Reddy
Amala Paul, Ashwin Kakamanou, Jagapati Babu
Amala Pauls Meera started out as a simple female film with two characters -
a submissive male actor and a female actor. But then, as the film
progresses, we see the dark side of their relationship and the power
dynamics between the two. In the first scene writer Meera (Amala Paul)
fantasizes about her friend (Ashwin Kakamanou), who she has been in a
relationship with for some time. Within minutes, the director introduces us
to her husband Vishwa (Jagapati Babu), who is cruel, chauvinistic and
insecure. Even though they had two children, Vishva decided to have another
child without their consent. In one scene, Meera even accused Vishwa of
committing rape in marriage.
When Mira managed to endure all her offenses, Vishva became increasingly
suspicious of her loyalty after reading one of her poems. This shakes up
their relationship and gives Miera the freedom she longs for. But is that
all he wants?
Despite the interesting premise, the characters in the film have no
influence. There's drama, anger, laughter, and loneliness, but none packed
into the right proportions. This film is driven by Amala Paul, the boldest
protagonist in the anthology. Jagabati Babu is also doing a fine job
perfectly as a controlling husband.
X-Life
Director is Nag Ashwin
Shruti Haasan, Sanjit
X-Life Nag Ashwin touches on a different theme that makes the story
impactful and connected. Even more stunning because of the short film form.
X-Life is set in a dystopian world driven by technology led by a young geek,
Vikram (Sanjith), who refuses to believe that his virtual reality company is
slowly destroying "love" in the real world. Despite several warnings, Vikram
continues to run his business with more than 4 billion active users.
Everything seems perfect until Vikram falls in love with the employee Divia
(Shruti Haasan). Nag Ashwin's X-Life is inconceivable and too expensive for
an anthology. But that's the plus side. The technical team is working hard
to bring viewers into a virtual reality world while ensuring that it
continues to be trusted. Shruti Haasan plays a girl in trouble in a
technocratic world who is starting to take over people's lives. The
transformation of your character at its peak is something to look out for.
Pinky
Director is Sankalp Reddy
Eesha Rebba, Satya Dev
Pinky is the newest story in the anthology, and also the weakest. This film
tells the story of a married woman who, even after years of separation,
loves her ex-boyfriend very much. The chaotic layers of infidelity quickly
dissolve because the two realities overlap with their secret relationship.
Unlike the previous part, the film's director, Sankalp Reddy, left the edges
open and asked viewers to connect the dots and draw their own
interpretation. Eesha Rebba played the main role admirably. It depicts a
very complex character, with overtones of jealousy and trance. The feelings
between Pinky and her ex-boyfriend Vivek (Satya Dev) are difficult to
understand, and this is one of the reasons the director doesn't end the
story with one perspective. However, it seems that such an approach doesn't
work and the whole story is deceptive.
Overall, the Pitta Kathalu is an interesting watch and we recommend it.
