Abbayitho Ammayi Telugu Movie Review, Rating
The story of Abbayitho Ammayi starts as our hero Abhi (Naga Shaurya) gets influenced by two different worlds. The first is the real world, where he gets attracted to Prarthana (Palak Laalwani) and in the second world, he is virtually connected to a girl with Samantha’s profile pic (which is being online on social media). In a real world, Prarthana – Abhi feel the inevitable fatal attraction towards each other. They start dating and share the sweet things. That’s when the news breaks out to respective families, due to the contrary conditions at Prarthana’s home, she gets to stay with Abhi’s parents (Mohan & Tulasi). At this time, Prarthana gets closer to her virtual world friend with Pawan Kalyan’s profile pic. As Abhi realizes that it was not only the fault of her, but the fault lies with both of them. But it’s too late. If you wanna know the ending of the film, you need to watch this teenage entertainer Abbayitho Ammayi.
Naga Shaurya is at ease in the role. But there is barely anything at all for Naga Shaurya to do in this film. For the most part of it, he remains a loser as is expected of him, starts understanding issues once he gets chucked out of the home. Palak Lalwani looks lucent, but terribly hams, because she doesn’t have much of a character to work with here. Yesteryear actor Mohan – Tulasi – Rao Ramesh are wasted in small roles, they even got overboard most of the times.
The script is what suffers from serious deficiencies, most related to creativity. The dialogues aren’t any better. There are a few good visuals by Shyam K Naidu that sadly appear out of place in this otherwise forgettable film. Maestro Illayaraja’s music is pleasant on ears, but they remind few of Ilayaraja’s earlier compositions. Movie could have looked a bit better with editing and lesser of forced melodrama. The choreography is infantile. Production values of JJ Ciemas are adequate.
Here is yet another film that talks of a teenage couple, who have been confused between infatuation and love. Ramesh Varma’s Abbayitho Ammayi takes things further, and blends it with some fate and at times the lack of it, to make it a plot that is tenuous at best. The whole plot is slightly embarrassing for the viewer, in that the bits and pieces are knotted together so clumsily that it isn’t even accidently entertaining, simply doesn’t display an attempt to put together even the semblance of a plot.
