Kushi Movie Review: A Mixed Bag of Love and Drama
Review:
Kushi, a new movie about love and family, brings together popular actors Vijay Deverakonda and Samantha. They’re hoping for a hit after their last films didn’t do so well. This film got attention for its hit songs and promising trailer. Now that it’s out, let’s see if it lives up to the hype.
The Story:
The movie tells us about Viplav (played by Vijay Deverakonda), who works for BSNL and falls in love with Aradhya (played by Samantha) in Kashmir. Aradhya loves him too. But there’s a problem: Viplav’s dad doesn’t believe in God, and Aradhya’s dad is a big believer. This makes their love story complicated. The movie is about how they overcome these challenges and what happens in their married life.
Acting:
Samantha does a great job, reminding us of her early films. Vijay Deverakonda also impresses in his role. The chemistry between them is strong, even though the story has some issues. Other actors like Murli Sharma and Sachin Khedkar do well in their parts. However, some actors feel a bit routine. The comedy in the movie is hit or miss.
Technical Stuff:
The movie looks beautiful, especially the scenes in Kashmir. The songs, except one, are pleasant. The music in the background fits well. The overall production quality is high. But, apart from the good acting, the story struggles to connect all its different parts. The dialogue is okay.
What’s Good:
- Vijay and Samantha’s performances
- The catchy songs
- Stunning visuals in the Kashmir scenes
What’s Not So Good:
- The main conflict doesn’t work well
- The emotions in the story are a bit shallow
- Some scenes are too exaggerated
The Big Picture:
Kushi is somewhat similar to movies like Sakhi, where couples run away to get married but then face challenges in their married life. In the first half, there’s a lot of romance in Kashmir, with beautiful scenery and songs. However, the story moves slowly, making us wait for the real plot. Some of the comedy works, but not all of it.
In the second half, the focus shifts to family and emotions. Again, the story moves too slowly and has some logic problems. The emotional moments and comedy provide some relief. There’s a funny scene that references Vijay Deverakonda’s famous role in Arjun Reddy. Some comedy in the second half is entertaining.
Kushi has moments where the story feels flat. The long second half slows things down. The ending scenes with Sachin Khedkar and some of Murli Sharma’s dialogues are good and help the movie.
But there’s a problem with the parents’ clash in the story. It doesn’t make much sense given the misunderstandings they had. Also, another couple’s past isn’t shown well.
Kushi tries to mix themes like marriage, misunderstandings, and family issues, but it only works sometimes. The songs, nice visuals, and some funny scenes make it okay. It’s better than some of the bad movies that come out, but it might not be everyone’s cup of tea, especially in smaller towns.
