The Movie:

The film Evaraina Epudaina with the tagline Preamalo Padocchu is another teenage romance film. The story is nothing new and its the same old story – boy meets girl, falls in love and then he does some goofy and even foolish things, all in the name of love. And the boy wins her heart and they live happily together.

The Story:

Venkat (Varun Sandesh) is introduced as a graduate who lives with his brother and his family. He is very much self-centered, street-smart youngster who believes in “living for himself”. Venkat does not do any work and whiles away all his time in the company of friends. He also blackmails his friends and even total strangers and extorts money from them. His lifestyle changes as soon as he sets his eyes on Madhu (Vimla Raman) who is quite mature as a philanthropist who runs an old-age home and falls for her. He gets an opportunity to befriend her when his grandmother is in hospital and Madhumita’s grandmother is also in the same hospital. Varun woos her with total enthusiasm resulting in a lot of comic situations.

Venkat manages to make a good impression on Madhu. He however hesitates to tell her that he loves her. Just when he wants to propose to her, he wrongly believes that Madhu is being engaged to his best friend. Venkat breaks up the alliance with a wicked pln only to realize that he had made a mistake. Venkat’s friend was getting engaged to Madhu’s elder sister and not Madhu.The rest of the story is how Venkat goes about trying to undo the damag how he win Madhu’s heart and also set right the villains who have their eyes on the old-age home land. In a slightly overdrawn and overdue climax, everything falls into place with everyone living happily ever after.

Performances:

Evaraina Eppudaina has all the signs of becoming Varun Sandesh’s third successive hit after Happy Days & Kotha Bangaru Lokam. Like his earlier movies, it has the right ingredients of a decent storyline with enough twists, good clean comedy, catchy songs and the tried test love-story as the base. But Varun uses the same accent what he deliver in his earlier movies. Vimala Raman has done a decent act in the film, but she looks more mature than Varun, at least 5 years elder than him appearing as Behanji to him.  Ali and Venu Madhav try their hand at comedy.

Mani Sarma’s music is reasonably good and the songs have some fast music that will appeal to the youngsters.

Director Marthand K Shankar tries to show too many things all at the same time. There is no novelty in the story and the screenplay is somewhat a bit confusing. The comedy part in the first half is not appealing

Verdict:

Evaraina Epudaina has very limited appeal – it is now up to the target audience, the college students to decide the fate of the film. Watch it once if you have to watch a movie at the theatre and there is no better movie than this at this time.
