Michael Madana Kamaraju............

The title reminds the old movie with Kamal acting in 4 different roles and spreading lot of comedy across the movie. Anyways now we are talking about the new movie where there is no Kamal, where there are no 4 characters, where there is no Ilayaraja music.. all in all its a new Michael Madana kamaraju, read on.

Madan(Sreekant) doesn’t believe in love and hates love and lovers, he always says that Love and lovers are trash, where as his cousin Kamaraju is always in search of love. The movie opens with a new format of visit look over a prospective bride for Kamaraju and ultimate Kamarajus parents asks Madan to select a girl for him and affirms that only Madan approval can call them back from US of A and fly off.

The movie suddenly moves from Hyderabad to Goa where Madan catches up with Charmy and Kamaraju with Asha Saini. Yes, that correct Sunil is paired up with Asha Saini in this movie, a little fat Saini with very fat Sunil. MeanWhile Bramhanandam enters the show and does his part to render comedy to the slow paced movie. In some circumstances Charmy becomes close to Madan and Madan also start liking her but because he already conveys his stand point on love he hesitates to tell the same to Charmy. By the time Sunil falls deep into Asha Saini he does some “trick” to let Madan come open about his love towards Charmi and approve Asha as his girl. However this trick has a side effect which actually introduces Michael (Prabhudeva). Michael is not a very good person and he wants to take the “trick’s” advantage and wants to marru charmi for her money. Now the rest you can imagine, how Madan breaks Michaels net to marry Carmi is the rest of the story.

Second half of the movie really has a parade of all the ace comedians we have in telugu industry, we have Kota, Ali, VenuMadhav, MallikarjunaRao, Kovai Sarala, Kondalavalsa, etc.. however this really doesn’t help the director to fill the movie with comedy. The script fall very dry towards the end of the movie and it hardly makes you laugh. Bramhanadam is watchable as usual with Dhoom spoofs here and there. There is lot of skin show contributed by Asha Saini which may be a drawback for family audience. Charmi is OK in the film. Prabhudeva has one dance number which he performs well and is acting is also upto the mark. Sreekanth with his new hair style looks different and does his part for the movie with no great story and punch.

All in all if you want to go and watch Bramhi for 15-20mins, please go and buy a ticket. Otherwise please sit at home and enjoy any weekend movie that comes on television.Michel
