Arya 2 and others...

I watched Arya 2 a while back. I really liked the movie. I have been thinking to write about it. Though, I did not like Arya (prequel) because of the performance of the actors, I was impressed by the concept of the story and that too in Telugu. I say that because in the contemporary situation that kind of a movie will not get you money in telugu industry but the movie proved me wrong. The director has projected the concept in such a way so that it would please the majority of the telugu audiences too, which is what I liked.
When I watched the second movie of Sukumar (the director I am talking about) i.e. Jagadam, I maintained the same respect for him because the concept is tough to make money in telugu industry. As expected it was a dud but he made a very good effort.
Then comes Arya 2, which blew my mind away. This time the story is way more away from gaining acceptance from majority of the telugu audience but he maintained his path and did it. I think the movie did well in financial terms too. It was stylish, very well executed and blend to make it viewable by telugu audience. I wouldn't dare to even think of filming such a concept if I were filming for telugu audience. The story starts of by showing the lead actor in a negative shade and he defines it well for doing so. I wasn't bored at any point. The movie is very finely weaved with the comic, surprise and the elements that would make it acceptable by telugu audience. I would say it's one of the greatest and brave screen-plays in telugu film industry. Sukumar's honesty, courage are greatly commendable prior to his movie making skills. Kudos Sukumar, you have done a great job.
I appreciate the actors for accepting such a movie too, mainly Arjun because he being a son of the film producer and the current trend is that none of the proteges are even thinking of doing something fresh and new. He did a character with negative shades and that which will be disliked by majority of the telugu public. There you go Arjun - great job and great choice.
Overall a great truthful and honest movie and a different one.

From the others I have seen in recent times, I liked 3 idiots, blind side, People vs Larry Flynt.
