![]() With the emergence of modern Malayalam language, the name of the language started to be known by the name of the region, hence now, the word Malayanma is considered by some to represent the olden Malayalam language. Such are games with cards, dice, billiards, etc. Board game - A board game is a tabletop game that involves counters or pieces moved or placed on a pre-marked surface or board, according to a set of rules. If it so happens that a player cannot move any of his pawns because he has not “hit” any of his opponents, then the player will lose that turn. Go and watch it.For 8, 1 token, for Ashta, 4 tokens and for Chamma 2 tokens can be brought back. Jhansi plays the perfect aunt to the hilt.Īshta Chamma provides clean, wholesome and undiluted entertainment for the whole family. Nani and Srini perform as though they are mature performers and not as debutantes. Swati is full of joie-de vivre as Lavanya and proves herself once more as good actor. The performances are top-notch and Mohankrishna should be credited for this besides the actors of course. The music by Kalyani Malik is in tune with the film.Ī thumbs-up to Mohankrishna for perfect casting. Some of the virgin rural locales, especially those which form the backdrop of the songs, are quite picturesque and P G Vinda captures it well through the camera. With Ashta Chamma, he brings back the good old Telugu on screen. Mohankrishna scripts an entertainer, and in the process, comes up with a winner. It makes it refreshing to see the word play in Telugu. But what sets it apart is the freshness in scripting, the treatment, the characterisation, the subtle humour, good direction and performances which elevate the film. One gets to see clean, genuine comedy and not an unnecessary, enforced one.Īshta Chamma has mainstream features like songs, familiar elements of storyline like lost-and-found-baby on train, romance, bucolic and urban imagery. The youngster quartet completely entertains. Seeking 'Wilde' inspiration (as the credits say To Oscar for 'Wilde' Inspiration), the film treads a wacky path. Should we say the Comedy of Names? Is Mahesh really Mahesh?Īshta Chamma is a rib-tickling romantic comedy from the word go. She is Mahesh's sister who lives in the village and Anand too poses as Mahesh (as she too only wants Mahesh whom she has heard about from her brother). Anand see Varalakshmi's (Bhargavi's) photograph and falls in love with her. Anand befriends Mahesh and then introduces him to Lavanya. ![]() Anand comes across a Mahesh (Nani) in a pub. Her neighbour Anand (Srini Avasarala) who can't bear the noise of listening to Mahesh Babu's songs day after day takes on the responsibility of finding a Mahesh for her. In the end, after much coaxing Lavanya agrees to marry somebody named Mahesh. Her aunt is tired of finding matches for her because of her Mahesh fixation. When Mahesh marries Namrata, all the women - young and old are heartbroken. She even sports a tattoo with his name on her arm. Lavanya ( Swati) is like any Gen-X girl - but slightly quirky, as she is besotted with film star Mahesh Babu. And the 'romantic' yarn Mohankrishna spins is a laugh riot all the way. Seeking Inspiration from Oscar Wilde for just the central thread of the story, Mohankrishna weaves a narrative about the heroine's fetish and fascination for Mahesh Babu, the Prince of the Telugu screen. ![]()
