Love is eternal whether it is Booloka, Yamaloka or Swarga Loka! This is a complete fantasy film with no logic but only magic. All policies are thrown in the wind to give entertainment, entertainment and entertainment.
In the discussion of Brahma and Saraswathi the new stage is set that gives work for Yamadharama and Indra who are happily sitting in the throne. That is the creation of a special character that has done good and bad equally.
A common man doing good and bad equally is killed by a don. Accepting whether hell or heaven is the issue before him after death. Mass Manava (Upendra) selects hell for thrill and he finds in the court room of Yama Dharma the wrong doers on earth Bin Laden, Gadaffi, Veerappan and others. It is Yama Dharamaraja (Ambarish) knowing the accounts of good and bad pass an order for stay of 15 days in hell and 15 days in heaven.
As a result Mass Manava is entrusted to look after the punishment department in hell. He is not very much interested in it. He is keen to know how heaven is and on a special permission of Chitragupta (Doddanna) he goes to heaven for a few minutes. Mass Manava is in love with Indraja (Ramya) daughter of Indra (Sridhar). Although he comes back to hell he master minds an idea to go back to heaven again to meet his dream girl before completing 15 days in hell.
In the court of Yama Dharama the Mass Manava creates a confusion of election to the position of Yamadharama. One of the culprits in hell Mohana (Upendra of Raktha Kanneeru) gives an idea to Yama to shift Mass Manava to Swarga so that his seat is intact. This is what Mass Manava also wanted.
Mass Manava in the Swarga Loka again creates commotion and the deep love with Indraja and reciprocation of it is a problem again. Indraja a Devakanye is not supposed to marry ordinary common man. At this time Brahma arrives on the scene and gives a judgment.
According to the judgment of Brahma Indraja and Mass Manava are given permission to marry on earth. He should not commit three mistakes. Yama Dharma should also go to earth and see to it Mass Manava creates three mistakes.
Indraja losing her hear to Mass Manava tries all means to save him from telling lies. A few developments now take place in Yama Loka as the power is now given to Mohana (Upendra). He brings drastic changes and allows people to make big mistakes but not small mistakes.
On earth Yama Dharama with Chitragupta following Mass Manava and Indraja finally loses to true love. He blesses the lovers to live happily.
ANALYSIS –
The main trump card of this film is the technology of 3D. It is fantastic in results at places. Throughout the film the 3D effect is not visible. Had the film not been with 3D effect this film would have been a damp squib.
There is no logic at all in all the three ‘Lokas’ living. The mass Manava that is Upendra takes control of all the three Lokas and make even Yama Dharama, Indra to shut their mouth. At least at this level the logic should have been there to have some control.
We have heard tales from grandmothers and grandparents on the Swarga and Narak. Such tales has been instrumental in building up our life. The essence of doing good go to heaven and doing bad go to hell is acceptable in the social life even to this day.
What happens in this film ‘Katari Veera Sura Sundarangi’ is entirely different. An ordinary man creating commotion and confusion is nothing but crossing the limits. It destabilizes the entire set up of minds in the social life.
For taking a ride on the sentiments and spoiling the images of people – the film makers have no right to ride on it. The mass media film should enhance the already accepted theory of ‘Heaven and Hell’. Passing new orders to these courts no one has the right. This is the area the film has made a blunder.
‘KVSS’ using very less characters and hundreds of extras and grandeur in the form of sets and technology has not written anything new in the mass media.
The 3D technology is also in highest standards in the Hollywood films. No doubt the effects from this film are the main draw of the film. The concept, screenplay and burying the standards the makers have no right to exercise. That is the main disgrace of this film.
There is no proper script that is convincing and logical issues should have been adopted at places at least to maintain the dignity of heaven and hell.
A great director like Suresh Krissna should have used more sensible points. He is simply driven the ‘Love affair from heaven to earth via hell’. Has the director in Upendra come to the working pattern of Suresh Krissna?
To give a pep and respect the elders who have passed away from earth in the heaven Sai Baba, Dr Rajakumar, Kuvempu, NTR, MGR, Chi Udayashanker, Dr Vishnu, Shanker Nag are all shown in a song number in passing shots.
Upendra telling Ramya 36, 24 and 36 and another dialogue repeated looking at her is not in good taste. The Upendra as Yamadharama when Yamadharma in a small vacation the dialogues are very punching.
The other possibilities of weakness of Chitragupta were required instead seducing a woman. In a mobile phone Upendra catches Chitragupta romance and blackmail him. It is blackberry phone used for blackmailing.
The real star Upendra is seen as Yamadharama narrating lengthy dialogues. This portion of the film is rather very interesting. The small mistake committers will be punished heavily is an indirect remark on such people. The point is that small mistake should be deleted from mind at the early stage so that it will not lead to big ones is the only vulnerable point of this ‘Katari Veera Sura Sundarangi’.
3D effect of Ramya holding the Varamala and coming forward gives a fantastic feel, the air bubbles, flowers, Gadhe of Ambarish, Vajrayudha of Indra and other set properties used to give effect has an impact.
PERFORMANCE –
There is no control in Upendra acting and dialogue delivery. He is a real stunner on screen and he is superb in dialogue delivery. The bail application he often takes by saying there is no logic only magic in the cinema. For the fans of Upendra there is enough of stock to feel happy and enjoy.
For others Upendra is seen in Yamadharama giving lengthy dialogue on ‘Chikka Thappu’ is an eye opener. But before that he cajoles the Hell and Heaven loses its strength of alerting people.
Ramya looks beautiful from the ornaments and costumes but the tight fitting for her gives a feel that she has become very fat. There is not much of scope for Ramya to show her acting prowess. She had taken part in romantic moments with Upendra in Jum Jumka…song.
Ambarish as Yamadharma is very convincing. The agile personality and make up for actor of over 200 films plus dialogues delivered by Ambarish is stunning. Sridhar as Indra is convincing. Doddanna as Chitragupta should have asked for deletion of scenes with a set up in Yama Loka. Muthappa Rai in a guest appearance has given that strong feel required for the film when Upendra evince interest in becoming a don to get thrill in life.
TECHNICALITY –
Full marks to the 3D technology. There is a great difficulty in making this kind of cinema. The properties selected the situations tailor made for the 3D effect is bombastic. In the very first scene of the film there is a good invitation to the audience when flower petals come before the eyes. One feels like catching it.
The 3D technique and HC Venu cinematography is the first main stay of this film. The 3D effect is the main savior of the ordinary stuff of contents.
The days of technology ruling over the script and artists is very near. This is evident from ‘Katari Veera Sura Sundarangi’.
V Harikrishna music is measured for the image of Upendra. There is a mass song, duet song, image building song etc in this film. The editing of this film is another high point of the film.
Last but not the Least – Amendments can be made for constitution. For social beliefs amendments should be tried logically for better life.
