Unrealistic Love and Forced Conflict

Khushi


After the failure of 'Sagunthalam', Samantha, Vijay Devarakonda after the failure of 'Liger', and director Shiva Nirvana after the failure of 'Duck Jagadish', the film 'Kushi' is a joint venture that should be a hit. Here is the analysis of the film, which is made in the style of 'Alaipayuthe', where lovers run away from home and get married, and then the relationship problems that arise between them...

Lenin Satyam (Sachin Khedkar) is not only an agnostic but also an agnostic. Leader of the Atheists Organization. His polar opposite is Chaturangam Srinivasa Rao (Murali Sharma), a Hindu spiritual preacher. Viblav (Vijay Devarakonda), the son of atheist Lenin Satyan. Despite being a son of a rich family, he willingly joins BSNL. He takes a transfer to Kashmir where he randomly meets Aaradhya (Samantha). He thinks that she is a Muslim girl in Burda. He falls in love with him and chases and chases and falls in love.

Love, Lies, and Marriage

Aaradhya tells him some lies to escape from his harassment. Even so, Aaradhya is heartbroken to see Viblav's perseverance and says that love is okay. As expected, there is opposition to love in both of their homes and against the home, both of them get married and start their lives anew. After this, some problems arise in their life. The screenplay of 'Khushi' is whether the two recover from it. 

Tamil cinema has seen many films with the same plot. Among them are classic films like 'Alaipayuthe'. But the deep screenplay and compelling emotional scenes of 'Alaipayuthe' are missing in 'Khushi'. The beginning of the film is interesting, with the introduction of the hero's father, the introduction of the hero, and the opportunity for him to go to Kashmir. But all of Samantha's post-debut scenes go awry. After seeing Samantha, everything Vijay Devarakonda does for the next hour is blatant 'stocking'. Someone mistakenly told director Shiva Nirvana that these are love scenes.

What is the purpose of these Kashmir scenes in the film is an enigma. The introduction of the heroine could have been done at the place where the story takes place. When the scenes in Kashmir are not so much related to the film, the Kashmiri army, and terrorists, the screenplay goes on a sad path as a vanilla Kishore comedy that does not get laughs. In the name of comedy, Vanilla Kishore says “I am afraid that Muslim women wearing burqas have bombs in their handbags” and the lines presenting the beef biryani are all blatant malice.

All the scenes where the hero and the heroine fall in love are ridiculous. You can even accept saying OK to love within two days of meeting the hero. But it is absurd to go so far as to run away from home in one week and to send the heroine's entire family on their way as if they were going on a pleasure trip saying "Come back in six months". All the fights that arise between the two after the marriage are painfully imposed. All the emotional scenes go so smoothly that even at one point we cannot relate to their emotional struggle. The hero punching the wife who teases him in the metro train is forced to have a fight scene in the film.

The only thing that keeps the film from yawning is the actors. Both Vijay Devarakonda and Samantha have given excellent performances. The chemistry between the two has worked out well. Rohini, who plays a senior official in the office, and Jayaram, who plays her husband, are typical. Their characters are also well-written. Lakshmi, Sachin Khedkar, Saranya, Murali Sharma, and Rahul Ramakrishna have all done their assigned work well.


The biggest strengths of the film are the music and cinematography. Music composer Hisham Abdul Wahab is the last bearer of the film. Only the background music saves the film from yawning at many points. 'En Roja Neeya' and 'Aaradhya' are also catchy. Murali Ji's colorful cinematography in Kashmir-related scenes is a feast for the eyes.

10, to 15 years ago, Tamil films would feature a song that insulted not only the heroine but the entire female community. Now that they have matured somewhat and become obsolete, a similar 'Bar' song comes in the second half. A few one-liners by Rahul Ramakrishna, a reference to the film 'Arjun Reddy', etc. add to the fun. The dialogues spoken by Sachin Kedkar and Murali Sharma in the climax of the film are special.

If the first half of the film, which was advertised as a 'love' film, had removed the absurdities and added pressure to the emotional scenes, this 'Khushi' would have become a film that would remain in the minds of the fans.

A Mixed Bag with Moments of Brilliance

'Khushi' showcases moments of brilliance, particularly in the performances, music, and cinematography. However, its shortcomings, including a lackluster plot and forced conflicts, prevent it from reaching its full potential. With more focus on realism and emotional depth, 'Khushi' could have left a lasting impact on its audience.
