It's clean, there is no double entendre, no violent stunts, even the fight scene in Switzerland was well executed. True to Karunakaran's style, Darling is a family entertainer. He should either marry the girl or face death.īut Prabhas is already in love and the girl is in Switzerland. Her doting father, a powerful don is unable to digest this. The spurned girl dashes home and attempts suicide. But Prabhas is not interested and makes no bones about it. The production values of Sri Venkateswara Cine Chitra India Pvt Ltd are laudable and once again BVSN Prasad has given another big hit to Prabhas.Ĭast: Prabhas, Kajal, Shraddha Das, Mukhesh Rushi, Prabhu, Chandramohan, Ahuti Prasad, MS Narayana, Dharmavarapu Subrahmanyam, Sivannarayana, Chatrapati Sreenu, Raja Sridhar, Kota Srinivasa Rao, Srinivas Reddy, Tulasi, and others.Prabhas (his screen name too) is a fun loving youth, just finished his graduation and is yet to make up his mind about his next move when his collegemate proposes to him. Director Karunakaran succeeded in highlighting a new artiste in Prabhas.

Prabhas’ performance and Kajal’s glamour would be a visual treat, while comedy by Srinivasa Reddy and Dhamavarapu would tickle the funny bones of audiences. The film had the traces of some earlier films, reunion of friends, trials to impress the heroine and using a child in the love thread etc. Such trick was never played by any director earlier. The flashback episode shot in Switzerland impresses the audiences and the audiences are in for a surprise when the truth is revealed that it is nothing but a fiction. The abrupt ending of Shraddha Das’ character could also be called as one of the minus points in the movie. But for the technique used in the screenplay, the film would have been very boring. However, the choreography of songs is good in some songs.

Even he spoiled the re-recording too and the music failed to elevate the depth of the subject in any given point of time. Had the tunes were impressive worth foot-tapping and the lyrics were catchy, the film would have been a bigger hit than now. Music by GV Prakash Kumar is a big let down in the film. As a whole he made the film very interesting and lovable. Above all, it is the directorial ability and perfect screenplay that could be said as the highlight of the movie as the director ran a delicate story with good precision and the movement of the film, which is basically a love story, with different action scenes at different intervals. He used very less thread work and avoided cinematic thrills while shooting the action scenes. Peter Haynes needs to be complimented for choreographing the action scenes with good precision. Another highlight of the film is the stylish action scenes. He is soft and looks very handsome in the movie Thanks to the cinematographer and make-up man, who perfectly followed the instructions of the director in giving the hero a new look. The performance of Prabhas is the highlight of the film. How, Prabhas impresses Nandini? Does Nandini really not love Prabhas or just pretended to tease him? What happened to the fate of the girl who loved Prabhas? Why Prabhas’ father wanted to marry her to another person instead of his son? Does Prabhas and Nandini unite or not? Answers to all these questions form part of the climax. He tries to impress her in so many ways, but she does not respond to any of his tricks. Later, all the old friends meet in a village and Prabhas comes across the grown up Nandini. But Prabhas somehow convinces him by narrating a fictitious love story to him. Her father (Mukhesh Rushi) who loves his daughter very much threatens to kill Prabhas’ friends if he doesn’t marry his daughter. Meanwhile, one of the juniors among girls (Shraddha Das) of Prabhas, who is the daughter of a factionist proposes to him, but the latter negates it as he is already in love with Nandini. Prabhas is so delighted to learn this and eagerly awaits Nandini. Once another friend of Prabhas’ dad visits their house to announce that all the friends are visiting his village to spend a week’s time there.
