And 'SSS' comes with Gautham Menon-style sensibilities in good measure. The pre-interval portions in the suspiciously macabre hospital are a treat to watch for the sheer dread they smell of. This is much helped not only because it was not meant to be a conversational love story but a thriller-like shoot out drama. Even the romantic track is racy enough, interspersed as it is with AR Rahman's 'Taanu Nenu' and 'Chakori'.

Yes, the film gets them right.Īt about 130 or so minutes, 'SSS' is mostly in 'sagipo' mode, taking 'swasa' only to give away some nuances.

Whatever the description may have suggested to different sections of audiences, Gautham Menon's fans did look forward to watching a narrational bonanza: In the first half, the lover boy would elaborately describe his love, its origin, that feeling when SHE looks at him, etc, and in the second half, the innermost feelings of the underdogs in danger would be mirrored through simple dialogues. The climax is about how, over a period of 2.5 years, the mystery has been unraveled single-handedly by Chay, letting the audience know why the villains bayed for Leela's blood, and how Chay, who now has a surprise identity, gets his comeuppance.Īs the makers had made it clear, 'SSS' is a mix of two genres, the first half being a 'YMC' and the second half, a 'Gharsana'. The politician-police-criminal nexus won't intimidate him. A rowdy cop (played by Baba Sehgal) threatens them with dire consequences, but Chay challenges with actions. The guy and his girl are overnight thrown into an abyss when they realize a murderous gang of assorted elements are out to eliminate Leela and her parents. The two meet with an accident and from now, it's all roller-coaster. It's time for a 'Ye Maya Chesave' tourism, minus Aleppy, but with a shock in store. There comes that 'Ye Maya Chesave' moment in his life when the sister's friend (debutante Manjima Mohan as Leela) appears in front of his eyes, 'heating up the room' as the two hold marathon, breezy conversations. Naga Chaitanya (whose name in the film is kept a secret till the climax) is a happy-go-lucky, engineering graduate hanging out with friends who keep extra interest in his love stories, mundane or special. Here is our review of this much-awaited movie. Amid skepticism about films working to their potential in a season of demonetization, 'Sahasam Swasaga Sagipo' releases as a 'sahasam' in itself.
