Story
Anil is an unemployed postgraduate. After trying for too many
jobs, he settles for a night watchman job. He desperately
needs a room to stay in the city. There lies a colony with
5-6 specimens, who have a unique style of living their own
life and seeing the outer world. One specimen gives him a
room on the condition that he should be there in room only
during daytime. Actually that room belongs to a lady called
Swathi, who works in a software company. They manage in such
a way that Swathi is unaware of the fact that another person
is staying at her place when she goes office. Even though
Anil knows that he is staying in an unknown girl's room, he
is never bothered to know about that girl.
After
a month, Anil breaks an artifact by accident and he does not
want to face the embarrassment. Hence he leaves a letter to
the girl telling what exactly has happened. Liked by frankness,
Swathi lets him stay in her house (in her absence). They become
good roommates by exchanging letters and cute things, though
they never bother to see each other. They fall in love as
well.
Anil
happens to meet Swathi at a restaurant and when her purse
is stolen, she turns her finger towards Anil. They start off
as enemies and then they culminate becoming friends. Both
these people have one name to communicate through letters
by staying in the same place. At the same time, they live
as friends outside. And both of them do not know that these
friends are none but the roommates turned letter-lovers.
After
sometime, Anil realizes that his roommate is none but his
friend. But he wants that thrill to be continued. So he does
not reveal this fact to her. The girl wants to see her roommate
only during the time of their wedding.
At
this juncture Anand, brother of Swathy's boss, falls in love
with her. He has a notorious past of attempting suicide when
a girl rejected his love. At the same time, he does not want
to face the rejection again. The parents of Anand, go to the
parents of Swathy for fixing the marriage alliance. They also
promise that they take care of marriage of their other daughters
as well. Swathy's father is a poor man with three daughters.
Even then, he says he would consider Swathy's permission before
Okaying the alliance.
Now
Swathy is in a fix whether to go for Anil and do justice to
her love or to accept Anand and be a responsible daughter.
After coming to know about this problem, Anil writes a letter
saying that he is leaving from her room and her life as he
got hold of a rich girl friend. The real Anil, who is friend
of Swathy, advises her that she should forget Anil and marry
Anand to make her parents and sisters feel happy.
Whom
would Swathy marry? Anil or Anand?? You much watch this class
and sensible comedy flick on big screen to know yourself.
Artists:
Ravi
Teja: Ravi Teja did wonderful job as Anil in this film.
He did not go over board anywhere and gave a very controlled
performance. Even his diction is very different in this film.
Kalyani:
She is another classic heroine of Vamsy who is beautifully
molded in to a lovely character called Swathy. She etches
very good impression on the hearts of viewers with her apt
histrionics.
Other
characters: There are very few directors in Telugu film
industry, who makes sure that each and every character in
the film has a role to play and an impact to make. Vamy is
one among them. Especially the inmates of that colony remind
me of those lovely characters of Gauls village in 'Asterix
comics series'. The most impressive one of them is the character
of 'Buddi raju', whose get up reminds me of 'Common Man' of
RK Lakshman's cartoons. His walking style and mannerism reminds
me of Bapu cartoons. The quick protests like 'Nenu Voppukonu'
and prompt compromises like 'Aithe OK' reminds me of
Mullapudi Venkata Ramana's comedy stories.

Departments:
Screenplay
- Direction:Vamsy's style of presentation is unique and
unparallel. I still remember that most impressive frame of
'Ladies Tailer' where half of the 35mm film occupies
the sewing machine and the remaining half occupies half of
spectacles-clad face of Rajendra Prasad. In this film too,
the way he used to camera is very unique. Showing the adult
relationships in a sensible way (remember the penu korukudu
Satyam in April 1 Vidudala?), still make it acceptable
is also another forte to him. He used all his experience to
narrate this film in a sensible and subtle manner. Story of
the film is based on a short line, which is very difficult
to expand it to 2 and half hours and narrate it in an interesting
manner.
Dialogues:
Another good aspect of this film are the dialogues that are
penned by popular comedy play writer Sankaramanchi Partha
Saradhi. He used all his experience to write some sensible
situational comedy dialogues.
Music:
Music of the film is excellent, except for the two racy tunes.
But Chakri disappointed the crowds with his background score,
though.
Analysis:
First half of the film offers 100% entertainment. The second
half is OK, but lacks its pace. There are few dull moments
in the second half. Made with a different story, narrated
in a creative manner, 'Avunu Valliddaru Ista Paddaru'
will entertain you in a big way, if you have taste of class
films and situational comedy sequences.
