Anamika Movie Review</h1>
<div itemprop="description" style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-top: 1em;">
<b style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;">Anamika: Logic 'Missing'</b><br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" />Ever since director Sekhar Kammula announced that he would be remaking Kahaani down the South (in Telugu and Tamil), there has been much curiosity around the project. With Nayantara being roped in to reprise Vidya Balan's role, the expectations have got bigger. Despite many delays in the shooting and none other than Nayan shunning promotions, Sekhar Kammula managed to keep the hype alive. Let's check out our take on it.<br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><b style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;">Synopsis:</b><br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" />Anamika (Nayantara) arrives to Hyderabad in search of her loving-husband Ajay Sastri, a techie, who has been missing for a week after he came down to Hyderabad from U.S on work. Nayan files a missing complaint in local police station and desperately tries to find his location. The emphasis is on: Who is Ajay Sastri? Does he exist outside Anaamika's head? Is he alive? Did he ditch Anaamika? Or Who abducted him? Why did they do so?<br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><b style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;">Performances: </b><br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" />Nayantara as Anaamika done a fair job in the film. She easily slipped into  the character and carries the film on her shoulders. It's Nayan's show all the way. She sheds her tears, emotes well and keep you hooked to the film. Despite less screen presence, Harshvardhan scores with his brief role as terrorist. The whole film is all about him (Ajay Sastri) who only makes his presence in the climax. Vaibhav (Saradhi) is okay as Good Samaritan cop but it is his characterization in the film that disconnects one. Anaamika in the film often calls Saradhi, cop, by his name without much respect as if she knows him very well. Irony is the cop who works 24/7 for solving one 'missing' case calls her Anaamika garu!!<br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><b style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;">Technical aspects: </b><br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" />Sekhar Kammula, who is struggling to return to glory, has chosen a remake. Unlike the original film Kahaani, Anaamika is neither taut nor delicious thriller. Blame the writer-director Sekhar Kammula for failing to adapt well. Lazy scripting is conspicuous. Inexplicable points in story, inert and boilerplate direction, sluggish narration mar the film. Sekhar, who is revered and regarded as intellectual filmmaker, too take too many cinematic liberties in narrating a thriller. Yet he throws many social challenges that a common woman is going through in society. All these aspects make Anaamika a Saada Film (any regular film).<br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" />Keeravani's background music is intense, gripping. Vijay C. Kumar's cinematography needs special mention. Editing is good. Marthand K. Venkatesh, who failed to act in the first half, realized it by the time film reached to the second part and counterbalances it.<br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><b style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;">Thumbs Up:</b><br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" />1. Nayantara<br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" />2. Story<br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" />3. Background score<br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" />4. Interval bang<br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" />5. Pre-climax<br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" />6. Second half<br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><b style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;">Thumbs Down:</b><br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" />1. Umpteen loop holes<br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" />2. Defies logic<br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" />3. First half<br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" />4. Inexplicable points<br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" />5. Climax<br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" />6. Inert, boilerplate direction<br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><b style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;">Analysis: </b><br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" />The film begins with a terror blast in Lumbini Park and swiftly switches into the life of Anaamika (Nayantara) and her 'missing' hubby Ajay Sastri (Harshvardhan). The film runs at snail pace in the first part and bores you at times. Interval bang raises curiosity and stay you connected. It is one's trust on Sekhar Kammula that holds you to watch the second half. Living up to expectations, Sekhar manages to compensate the loss he has done in first half with the second half. Yet there are many inexplicable points (like why didn't terrorists or Home Minister try for the hard disk right from the beginning, Home Minister Naresh's relation with blasts, How could he close the every crucial, sensational case, including C.I's murder, without solving? Why Saradhi has so much soft-corner on Anaamika, How come dreadful terrorists fail to differentiate between right hard disk and a dummy one, How come international and notorious terrorist chief  simply gets killed) loop holes in the script that baffle you with many unanswered questions. And this list goes on and on and on. This is what keep you off the track.<br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" />Nayantara tries hard to save the film and yes, she is partly successful. Pre-climax portions are good. Despite missing some logic, the film is a one-time watch. The film might connect to people who haven't watched original Kahaani.<br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><b style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;">Verdict: Seedha Saadha Kahaani (Normal Story)</b></div>

Manam Movie Review</h1>
<div itemprop="description" style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-top: 1em;">
Much awaited movie of the season, last film of the TFI Legend Akkinneni Nageswara Rao, Manam is out in theaters now. This movie has many specialties about it apart from being ANR's last film. All the Akkineni heroes including soon to be launched Akhil are in this movie directed by Ishq fame Vikram Kumar.<br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><b style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;">What is it about?</b><br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" />Nageswara Rao alias Bittu (Nagarjuna) parents (Naga Chaitanya, Samantha) dies in a car crash. After becoming successful as businessman, Nageswara Rao bumps into Nagarjuna (Naga Chaitanya) and comes to know that his father is born again. He goes in search of his mother and Priya (Samantha) befriends Nageswara Rao. Now Nageswara Rao is on a mission to unite his parents in their rebirth. Meanwhile Chaitanya (ANR) is shocked to see his dead parents Nageswara Rao and Anjali (Shriya) alive. Then comes the story of Nageswara Rao and Anjali's past life.<br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><b style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;">Performances: </b>                                                                                          <br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><b style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;">ANR:</b> Akkineni Nageswara Rao has very less screen time compared to others. He has some lively moments with his son and grandson. Scenes between ANR and Chaitanya are a treat to watch.<br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /> <br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><b style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;">Nagarjuna:</b> Nagarjuna is the central character of the film and has lion share of the running time. He has done fabulous job as Nageswara Rao and Sitha Ram. He gave a comic touch to Nageswara Rao character and his performance as Sitha Ram will bring back the memories of vintage romantic Nag.<br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /> <br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><b style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;">Chaitanya:</b> Chaitanya surprises with a matured performance. He is at ease in portraying the role of Nagarjuna. This is by far the best performance of his.<br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /> <br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><b style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;">Samantha:</b> Samantha steals the show yet again in a bubbly character. Her scenes with Nagarjuna are the best part in this film.<br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /> <br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><b style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;">Shriya:</b> Shriya is lucky to bag this film at the fag end of her career. She did a pretty decent job and looked gorgeous in the doctor character.<br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /> <br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><b style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;">Others:</b> Brahmanandam, Ali, Posani, MS made cameo appearances in the film. Saptagiri excelled in the role of Chaitanya's friend.<br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><b style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;"><br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" />Technicalities:   </b>                                                                                                                              <br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><b style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;"><br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" />Direction:</b> Vikram Kumar took a very complex point and executed it so well that the premise appears so simple. There are many scenes where we admire the work of the director. He should be lauded for coming up with something that is so different from run of the mill films. Vikram Kumar is here to stay and surely will rule Telugu film industry in the coming days.<br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /> <br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><b style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;">Music:</b> Music by Anup Rubens is simply superb. All the songs are very good. Background score is the major asset of the movie.<br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /> <br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><b style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;">Others:</b> PS Vinod's cinematography stands out. Harshavardhan dialogues are simple and sweet. Editing is neatly done. Producers deserves a pat on the back for backing this idea and making such a lavish film solely believing in the capabilities of the director.<br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /> <br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><b style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;">Thumbs Up:</b><br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" />ANR-Nagarjuna-Chaitanya combination<br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" />Story idea<br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" />Screenplay<br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" />Music<br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" />Akhil's special appearance<br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /> <br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><b style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;">Thumbs Down:</b><br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" />Hurried pre climax sequences<br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" />Slow pace at times<br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><b style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;">Analysis:</b> Manam is entirely different film from the movies our Telugu audience gets to see. It is hard to imagine such a plot and visualize it to the perfection. Director Vikram Kumar surely made one of the best movies of this era. Manam has some magical moments throughout the film that will make you cheer the characters and their emotions.<br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" />Romance is too cute and the chemistry between all the lead characters is impeccable. Director Vikram Kumar made sure that all the actors get into the skin of the characters and gave some genius touches to them so that viewers will be entertained throughout the movie. This is actually an emotional film, but the director dealt it in lighter vein and never missed the fun.<br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" />Once you get connected to the characters and their emotions it is a roller coaster ride. Manam leaves you wanting for more and that is the sign of a true classic. Down the line this film will surely remembered as one of the best films of Modern Telugu cinema. Akkineni fans will have a blast and all others will definitely watch it more than once. Go watch it.<br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><b style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;">Verdict: Manam - A Rare Gem!</b></div>

Pyar Mein Padipoyane Movie Review</h1>
<div itemprop="description" style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-top: 1em;">
Aadi, Shanvi who were earlier seen in Lovely have paired again for yet another romantic entertainer Pyar Mein Padipoyane. Ravi Chavali directed this film.<br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><b style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;">What is it about?</b><br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" />Chandra (Aadi) is a music composer who wants to make his own album. He falls in love with chorus singer Yuktha (Shanvi) in first sight and takes her as the lead singer in his band. After  some time Yuktha too falls in love with Chandra. But he couldn't be normal with her as he knows he has done big mistake in his childhood that left a Yuktha in distress. He tries his best to hide the fact that he is the one who had hurt her.<br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><b style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;">Performances:   </b>                                                                                        <br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><b style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;">Aadi:</b> Aadi played the role of a casual youth that doesn't demand great acting skills. He kept it simple and did a decent job. He is not very impressive in comedy scenes. Needs to work on his expressions in emotional scenes. He has done a good job with dances.<br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /> <br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><b style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;">Shanvi:</b> Shanvi looked pretty and that's it. She is a very bad actress and didn't improve a bit even after doing couple of films.<br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /> <br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><b style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;">Others:</b> All the hero's friends have lengthy roles, but none of them made an impact. Saptagiri steals thunder in his cameo appearance. Thagubothu Ramesh is okay and Vennela Kishore tried his best to make his character work. The actor who played the character of Shanvi's silent lover was horrible.<br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><b style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;">Technicalities:</b>                                                                                                                             <br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><b style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;">Direction:</b>  Ravi Chavali has done some mediocre films post Samanyudu. This may be slightly better than those films, but it will hardly entertain. Poor script and bad direction are the main drawbacks of this film. Ravi Chavali's idea of romance is old fashioned and will not appeal to current generation.           <br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><b style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;"><br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" />Music:</b> Being a film with a musical drop PMP demands a good soundtrack. Anup's music is a huge disappointment. None of the songs make a lasting impression. Bakcground score is alright.<br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><b style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;">Others:</b> Editing is not up to the mark. The film drags unnecessarily in some parts. Cinematography is fine. Production values are nice for a low budget film.<br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><b style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;">Thumbs Up:</b><br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" />Nothing worth mentioning<br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /> <br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><b style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;">Thumbs Down:</b><br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" />           <br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" />Screenplay<br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" />Heroine's performance<br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" />Direction<br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><b style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;">Analysis:</b><br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" />Pyar Mein Padipoyane is basically a romantic entertainer that is targeted at young audience. It starts on a dull note and gets boring right from the first scene. Romance between the lead pair is uninteresting. All the scenes are stale and seem outdated. Dialogues are pretty bad to make things worse.<br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" />           <br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" />There is an attempt to make us laugh, but those scenes hardly tickles due to bad writing. Shanvi bluntly reject Aadi when he says I love you to her and fall in love with the same person without any reason. There comes a twist in the tale which is childish on any level.<br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" />           <br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" />Sadly second half of the film is completely based on that twist and the film gets unbearable and yawn inducing at a moment. Anybody with minimum knowledge of Telugu films can predict what happens towards the end and the director didn't try to make it any interesting. Pyar Mein Padipoyane goes from bad to worse making it a painful watch.<br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" />          <br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" />Only people who have stuck in eighties can relish this romance that never allows the viewers to connect with the lead characters emotions. Lovely was a far better film than this one and if you want to watch this pair on screen better rent a DVD of Lovely than sitting through this romantic torture.<br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><b style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;">Verdict: Painful Pyar!</b></div>

Vikrama Simha Movie Review</h1>
<div itemprop="description" style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-top: 1em;">
Rajanikanth's ambitious daughter Soundarya directed the first motion capture film on Indian screen against all the odds. Did she deliver or not?<br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><b style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;">What is it about?</b>Rana (Rajanikanth) is a brave soldier who does his best for his kingdom Kalingapuram. He takes his army to beat Kota Pattanam and interestingly turns against his own King (Jackie Shroff) and joins hands with Kota Pattanam king (Nasser). Rana is here to avenge his father Vikrama Simha's (Rajanikanth) death.<br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><b style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;">Technicalities:                   </b><br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><b style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;">Animation:</b> Animation in this film is far from impressive. If you are a big fan of Hollywood animation films, this is a strict no no for its amateurish animation effects. Motion capture is not done to perfection. Rajanikanth's animated figure looked far from original. Vikrama Simha image was too bad compared to Rana, which was slightly better. It is brave step from the animators point of view to sketch all the characters with popular faces. The war sequences and dance and action episodes were done well.<br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /> <br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><b style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;">Direction:</b> Soundarya was handicapped with a weak story and screenplay written by KS Ravi Kumar. Real Rajanikanth could have saved the day for a mediocre script like this. But an animated Rajanikanth is as handicapped as his daughter who messed it up in narration. She has probably put all her efforts on the animation part and ignored story which is vital for any film.<br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /> <br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><b style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;">Music: </b>AR Rahman's background score is the best part of this film. There are far too many songs in the movie and Rahman couldn't come up with tunes that have repeat value.<br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /> <br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><b style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;">Others: </b>Dialogues are written keeping Rajani's image in mind. Dialogues mouthed by Vikrama Simha character are impressive. Cinematography and Production design are good. Editing is pretty bad. Story jumps from one scene to another without any link.<br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /> <br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><b style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;">Thumbs Up:</b><br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" />Rahman's background score<br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" />Rajanikanth's Shiva Tandavam sequence<br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" />Introductory scenes<br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /> <br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><b style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;">Thumbs Down:</b><br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" />Cliched story<br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" />Mediocre screenplay<br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" />Amateurish animation<br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" />           <br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><b style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;">Analysis:</b> It would be unfair to compare this film with Avatar or some other big Hollywood film that has used Motion Capture technology. Vikrama Simha is only made with a fraction of budget that the Hollywood studios spend on this genre films. The makers of Vikrama Simha can be lauded for making a brave and never before attempt on Indian Screen. Sadly they won't get any props for any other aspect except for making an attempt.<br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" />            Vikrama Simha is a classic case of bad storytelling and uninteresting narration. Though we don't expect world class animation effects in the film, we would certainly expect a compelling and an arresting story to make us sit through. Vikrama Simha failed big time in getting the script right. It is an age old revenge formula script set in historical backdrop. Thanks to motion captureâ€¦ Rajanikanth at this age didn't have to toil hard for the film.<br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" />            Die hard fans of Rajanikanth may feel content with the film especially if they watch this in Tamil. Rajani's magnetic voice itself will make them happy. But for others Vikrama Simha is a boring film with bad animation. There are some impressively done sequences here and there, but they are far apart and it will be a tedious affair to go through the rest of the movie.  <br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" />            Director Soundarya certainly has the zeal to do something different from the rest. She should have spent enough time on script before putting her directorial skills to test. Vikrama Simha is a brave attempt gone wrong on all levels. Watch it at your own risk.<br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" /><b style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;">Verdict:</b><br style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;" />Vikrama Simha - Animated Superstar fails to Roar!</div>
