He smiles - you smile, He talks - you laugh and he narrates a beautiful story - you carefully listen to it & shed tears later! Such was Anant Nag's character and performance <3 My expectations were sky high and I was nowhere disappointed! Wow! Anant Nag sir finally gets a role he deserved and I don't mind watching Venkob Rao all day :D The movie kick starts right away from the opening credits with an amazing track(Ranga bhoomiye) & visuals and goes with a perfect pace till the Interval! Would easily give 5/5 for 1st half. Even a subtle way of narration gave me goosebumps at many places! That's an art for sure. 2nd half gets kinda repetitive and little dragged but has an amazing sequence to look forward to , which made me cry! Probably one of the best scenes I've ever watched! And it was not even a sad story! Love it when happy things can make you cry. Have concerns about few plot points but when the movie & characters are so beautiful, it's very difficult to complain!
Movie offered me more than what I expected, I went to watch my darling Anant and there was an equally brilliant character 'Ranga' and Vasishta portrayed it perfectly! En kadak voice guru! He's a brilliant actor to look forward to! And then there's Achyuth Rao who never disappoints! About Rakshit I don't have much complaints - his character pisses you off and also makes us feel for him & understand his situation so we can safely say that he did a good job! Sruthi was apt! Their relationship & the journey was shown in a very interesting way and watch out for the ending! :) Although I wish the spotlight should have been on 'GBSM' in the last shot!
Music was one more wow factor of GBSM. Sadly I couldn't appreciate it much before the movie but listening to it with the visuals was the best experience! And I loved most of the songs! Charan does an amazing job even in BGM!
Hemanth is an extremely talented story-teller. He establishes so many themes and conveys it very well! His writing is nearly flawless and he also tries to surprise you at many places even in a drama! Liked the subplot of vasishta which was handled very well. The dialogues especially deserves more credit! Because it wasn't over the top or too Kanglishy or too random or forceful. It's just neat, sensible and perfect! I'm a fan already! Keep going brother :D
Thanks Hemanth, Pushkar and team for giving such a gem to cherish <3 Watch it for Sri Sir Anantnag ji, Vasishta & mainly for the beautiful experience! :)
