Amrutha Varsham Telugu Movie
Sometimes the audience response does not do justice to a well-made movie. Nobody have answers for that.
Something is wrong somewhere. Otherwise how can you describe the debacle of 'Amrutha Varsham'. It's surprising that people in Andhra Pradesh have rejected Amrutha Varsham. This is an excellent example of a superbly made movie that somehow has not clicked with the audience.
An interesting plot, melodious songs, good acting and nice camera work, nothing seems to have worked. After four days, the theatre where Amrutha Varsham is being screened, struggles to sell the front stall tickets and if you have purchased an upper stall ticket you are treated like royalty with the entire balcony to left to yourself. The fact that it's a remake of the hit Kannada film Amrutha Dhare, doesn't have any impact on the public. Even the Big B's presence does not help.
There is not a single vulgar gesture or dialog in the movie. Violence is non-existent too. The music is good and the songs are hummable. The lead pair is good looking and acts well. Everything is perfect, but the audience still does not appreciate the good work. That's truly sad.
The essence of Amrutha Varsham is: ''a meaningful life of three days is greater than a meaningless existence of a hundred years''. Sameer Dattani and Ramya are married but act as if they are lovers, with Sameer chasing Ramya. They have a good friend circle that settles their innumerable small fights. Sameer has married Ramya much against his father's wishes. His father kicks him out of the house and to that Sameer takes a vow to construct a house within one year. He saves every penny, even gets labeled as a penny pincher. And he ultimately builds a house within the promised time. A happily married young couple with realistic dreams leads a fulfilling life. But God has other plans for them.
Amrutha Varsham is a brilliantly made movie, no doubt about that. It's truly baffling that Amrutha Varsham is not a hit with the viewers in Andhra.
