Story
Movie starts with a fight in which Durga Prasad bashes up
polices for occupying the house of a poor woman. Visweswara
Rao (Raghuvaran) comes to know the heroism of Durga Prasad
and tells him his flash back.
<start
flash back>
Visweswara
Rao and Chandra Sekhar (Charan Raj) are the best friends.
They have a kid each. Visweawara Rao is a business magnate
and Chandra Sekhar is a police officer. Chandra Sekhar arrests
a dreaded goon and the goon's supporters kidnap the son of
Visweswara Rao and hold the kid as hostage and want to exchange
the kid for the release of goon.
If
Chandra Sekhar does not release goon, he would be getting
a promotion and prize money worth 5 lakhs from the Government.
At the last spurring moment Chandra Sekhar becomes selfish
which results in the death of son of Visweswara Rao.
Due
to this incident Chandra Sekhar becomes enemy of Visweswara
Rao. The wife of Visweswara Rao gets paralyzed. Visweswara
Rao's aim is to kill the son of Chandra Sekhar.
<end
flash back>
Visweswara
Rao asks for the help of Durga Prasad in killing the son of
Chandra Sekhar. Durga Prasad accepts to be the contract killer.
In the process, Durga Prasad cures the paralysis of Chandra
Sekhar's wife. Durga Prasad also kills Simha Prasad (Sai Kumar).
Charulatha
(Reema Sen), the niece of Visweswara Rao, falls in love with
Durga Prasad. Visweswara Rao is impressed with Durga Prasad,
as he got rid of Simha Prasad and cured the paralysis of his
wife. He wants to adapt Durga Prasad as his son and marry
off Charu Latha to him.
But,
it is revealed that Durga Prasad is a big enemy of parents
of Charu Latha back in their Nizam area.
<Interval>
<begin
flash back>
Then
there is a remote village in Telangana, which is dominated
by the family of an MP (Vasu). There are no doors for houses
in that village. This arrangement is done because the sons
and goons of MP can run into any home and take hostage.
Durga
Prasad is a hardworking and heroic IPS officer, which is sent
on a special duty to get hold of the goons and set the village
right. Hema (Simran) falls in love with Durga Prasad after
observing his daring personality.
Hema
proposes to the parents of Durga Prasad and all the elders
accept the match. In a particular fight Durga Prasad's hand
gets paralyzed. The parents of Hema cancel the alliance with
Durga Prasad. Hema defies her parents and enters the house
of Durga Prasad and stays there by serving him and making
him a healthy man.
At
the time of Durga Prasad and Hema marriage, the villains reveal
that Durga Prasad is not the real son of his parents.
<end
flash back>
Then
the story goes back into continuing the first half again.
If you want to know who this Durga Prasad is, you gotta watch
the film.
Artists:
Bala
krishna: Balayya is in his elements, again, in this film.
But the characterization is not strong enough to elevate heroism.
There was very good applause for a few dialogues uttered by
Balayya in this film.
Simran:
Simran is the second half heroine with a role for emoting.
She did extremely well.
Reema
Sen: She is just a prop in this film used as glamour cushion
so that a couple of songs can be pictured in the first half.
She is wasted in 'Seema Simham'.
Technical Departments:
Screenplay - Direction: Screenplay of the film is bad.
Direction is good in patches. There are a few brilliantly
executed scenes. But the most of the other scenes in this
film lack punch and are dull. Too many characters and too
less time taken to establish these characters is the main
drawback. The script of the film is loosely executed.
Dialogues:
There are 6 - 7 very good dialogues in the film, which drew
applause from the morning show crowds. Again, the dialogues
became ineffective because of inefficient narration.
Comedy:
Another drawback of the film is lack of entertainment in the
form of comedy. There is no comedy in second half. There is
some comedy, which is not rib tickling, by Brahmanandam and
Gowtam Raju in the first half.
Music:
Mani Sharma is not impressive with his music in the film.
The work is not as good as he has done for Samara Simha Reddy
and Narasimha Naidu.
Dances:
The first song is heavily inspired by Rajni Kanth's Basha
song, which includes Rajni mannerisms. Chandamama Chandamama
song stands out as the best of lot. Other four songs are beat
based with lots of dances.
Production:
The producers did not seem to have gone into the details of
movie making other than putting in their money. The film looks
very rich with hundreds of people participating in many scenes
of the film.
Analysis:
The film starts with illogical sequences. Polices occupying
the poor woman's place and putting up a police station is
illogical, which made a way to hero introduction this film.
The second point is Charan Raj worrying about his prize money
and preferring 5 lakhs to a multimillionaire friend, who treats
him at par. Then the entire first half is dragged with no
story. The story again starts 5 minutes before interval. Watching
the movie is like watching two movies with a heroine each.
First half has different flavor and different heroine. Second
half has different color and different heroine.
Though
the dialogue writers forcibly inserted the justification for
'Seema Simham' title in the dialogues written to Balayya,
there is no logic behind titling this film as 'Seema Simham'.
The first half of the film is average. The second half disappoints
as people start expecting something extraordinary in the flashback.
Flashback in this film is very ordinary. At the end climax
weakens and the hero's character does not get elevated. This
film is opened with terrific crowds. We have to watch and
see how this film is going to fare of box office in the long
run.
