Chandra Siddharth’s new release ‘Madhumasam’ deals with the poignant side of human emotions. His new magnum opus is a love tale that has surprising twists and twirls all throughout and this dexterous director has succeeded to pull it off with great ease and élan. Although the film marks the presence of two heroines and a hero, it isn’t a three-edged love tale at all. Both the leading ladies have been awarded completely contrasting looks.
The girl in this film swears by love while the boy is miles apart from love, which he views as something useless. That is till they get to know each other. But once they meet each other, their whole opinion goes upside down. The guy fall head over heels in love with the girl while the girl is completely disenchanted with love.
The film mainly wickers around Sanjay (Sumanth) who is a down-to-earth guy. Sanjay views life pragmatically and has no time for love. His parents (Chalapati Rao and Kavita) empathize with his feelings and do not push him for anything. Hamsa Vahini (Sneha), works for MAA TV and lives with her father Ramanatham (Giribabu).
Hamsa first spots Sanjay in a wedding ceremony and immediately falls in love with him. She proposes to him and Sanjay agrees to her offer. But he tells her that his feeling for her is restricted only to likeness. This disheartens Hamsa and she calls off the marriage since she cannot marry a man who doesn’t love her. Dejected in love, she decides to go to US.
After meeting with dejection in love, Hamsa starts despising love. In the meantime, Sanjay understands her real worth and falls in love with her. But she refutes his love. Sanjay tries hard to convince her of his love but to no avail. To give one last try to his luck, Sanjay decides to meet Hamsa and persuade her. But the bus in which Hamsa happens to travel meets with an accident and Sanjay comes to their rescue.
Hamsa’s friend tries to persuade her to accept Sanjay’s true love but she sticks to her hard heartedness. Only after Maya (Parvati Melton) who is Sanjay's friend reveals to her that Sanjay has decided to marry a girl whom he doesn’t love in order to save Hamsa’s life, that her heart once again melts for him. Realising her grave mistake, she hurriedly makes way to the railway station where she finally reunites with her love and the story moves to a happy ending.
Kudos to the director for such excellent handling of the love tale. Sumanth is simply outstanding in his role here. Sneha too is excellent and dazzles in her glamorous role. Parvati Melton too sets the screen on fire with her sizzling looks and dazzling performance.
Screenplay and narration by Chandra Siddharth is fabulous. Manisharma’s compositions are symphonic. Editing by Marthand K Venkatesh is decent. On the flip side, the film is poor on comedy.
This is a clean film with very little violence. Hats off to the director for coming up with such a good film that never makes you cringe in the presence of your people. A good watch for all movie buffs.
