In Brahmalokam, Brahma (Rajendra Prasad) has a small quarrel with Saraswathi Devi (Kalyani) and he judges that marriage has to be followed by death. In Bhulokam, Sreenu (Sivaji) a struggling guy trying to impress Swetha (Sonia) and it is love at first sight. Meanwhile, Sreenu’s friend Sobhan Babu (Venu Madhav) does a penance to Brahma and wins his heart. Brahma gives a jug to Sobhan Babu and tells him to drink it that will give the power to read anyone’s fate. However Sreenu ends up drinking it. what happens next is to be seen on BIG screen.
The film is basically a socio fantasy movie with a few twists.However movies becomes less interesting once the plot is revealed. Love thread should also have been dealt better.
Strengths :dialogues and the visual effects .Background score was impressive, two songs were melodious, Rajendra Prasad, Sonia .
Weakness : Weak in content / not enough stamina to run for 2:30 hrs.
Meets the audience expectations : partly.
Producer Happy : Needs aggresive publicity to get revenues.
Reviewer Happy : Reviewer not happy. It is too thin and a frustrating story line to pick-up the backdrop of Yama, Brahma etc., with mythology background. It sounds very cliche.' . They should worked more on the concept and used them with more creativity.

Trade Report - Telugu Cinema - Maryada Ramanna all the way
Maryada Rammana :
Its Maryada ramanna that is ruling the theatres at present in AP .
while some websites like greeatAndhraa gave false opinions, TV 9 mentioned about the inspiration from hollywood flick, nothing seems to have deterred the magic of Raja Mouli on Box office. He is going into the list of all-time succesful directors in the the History of Telugu Cinema with his success percentage.
Strengths : Sunil's energetic performance and Dances, Excellent Songs, Seductive saloni, a well made production by Raja Mouli.
Weakness : Run-time is a big let down as it is only 2 hours. It is not fair to accept a 2 hour movie unless the ticket price also comes down proportionaltely. The taken for parking , buying tickets , traffic is more than the movie time.
Yamudu :
Yamudu is a commerical success. Suriya was extremely appealing as a Tough police guy.
Anushka was a treat . Both the suriya brothers ( surya and Karthi) are lauging their way into Tollywood box office.
Sneha Geetham and Subhapradam are duds at the box office.
Sneha Geetham proved that gimmics doesn't work - only quality content works. It would been a better success - if GreaaatAandhra has not created unneccessary hype for the movie .GreaatAandhra's cheap pulbicity articles and Larsco banner's promotional approached killed the remote chances.
Subhapradadm - is also a surprise disaster. Naresh, Vishwanath combination created negative image to say the least. The direction was also outdated and audience could not connect to the movie at anytime since the script wanders allover.
A great Performance by Manjari was eclipsed by the poor script.

Maryada Ramanna Review -" Game " attempt by RajaMouli. Trade report on Snehageetham , subhapradam , em pillo em pillado, bheemili
Sunil scores a hit with Maryada Ramanna. Raja Mouli made sure yet again he had all the pre-release hype, necessesary masala in the movie to make it a box office success.
The movie is story in not any strange thing - as told by Rajamouli himself that it is about hero unknowingly staying in house of somebody who is looking out to kill him. The stoty line is wafer thin but it is dealt effectively.
To summarize it is the same routine tiresome "Game " attempt patented by srinu vytla and follwed by different directors in the last 12 months . It is the turn for Raja Mouli now.
Key Highlights :
Songs - kharma itta kalipoyindi , parugulu thee, telugu ammayi are instant winners. Keeravani lits the movie yet again with his music.
Sunil - He is slim, smart and has given an enmergetic performance which matches to the energy of Ram and Ravi Teja.
Weakness -
Raja Mouli' brand is missing - and some of his core fans may find this as a holdiay attempt from him to avoid pressure from media and circles about his next "big" film.
The much hyped title character though is very good - a known face like kota could have added more spice to it.
1. Rating : 3 /5
2. Producer happy : yes
3. Audience satisfied : yes ( if you go with realistic expeccations from a sunil movie)
Coming to Other Films :
Sneha Geetam - turned it a below average fare. ( the not so intelligent promos / offers like free for students, money back offers etc., sum up the outdated direction and thought process of the movie ) . Larsco banner better luck next time.
Even the excessvie promotion by GreaatAndhra site also truned bizarre experience and got frustration for readers. Atleast 10 % dip is observed in viewership of the site after repetitive "paid or sef-interested" news by the site .
Subhapradam : Not braced by all .Not happy returns at the box office .
Viswanth sir Should appreciated for the social cause , wonderful music from Manisharma and award winning performance from Manjari.
Em Pillo, Em pillado - The less said about this movie, the better . It s a low-budget version of Ready and Jayeebhava as simple as that. Even scenes are so repetetive - it hardly impresses.
Bheemili- Too much of tamil natitivy disliked by people. The positive image of Nani bringing audience to theatre. He is surely making it big with step-by-step. The movie is watchable once however with some nice moments.
That's it for now.
