Mega daughter Niharika Konidela makes her debut as a movie producer with Committee Kurrollu, and it hit the screens today amid significant anticipation. Check out our review to see how it stacks up.

 

Story:

In the peaceful village of Purushothapalli, West Godavari, a close-knit group of friends-Shiva (Sandeep Saroj), Surya (Yaswanth Pendyala), Subbu (Thrinadh Varma), William (Eshwar Rachiraju), Peddodu (Prasad Behara) and others- share an unbreakable bond. But a sudden dispute between them sends shockwaves throughout the village, disrupting their lives and the community’s harmony. What caused this fallout among the friends? How did their conflict affect the village and its culture? Will they reconcile? And what role does Bujji (Sai Kumar) play in this unfolding drama? The answers will be unveiled on the big screen.

 

Plus Points:

The film’s promotional campaign set the stage for a lively, youthful entertainer, delivering a blend of humour and heartfelt moments.

Commendable performances from Sandeep Saroj, Thrinadh Varma, Yashwanth Pendyala, and Prasad Behara make their characters come alive, adding depth to the story.

Supporting roles by Kishore Kumar Polimera, Sai Kumar, and others contribute effectively to the film’s appeal.

The childhood scenes are a major highlight, filled with youthful antics that evoke nostalgia and provide plenty of laughs. These well-written moments will surely remind viewers of their golden days.

 

Minus Points:

While the film shines in comedy and a few emotional scenes, the storyline falls short of being engaging. The plot fails to fully captivate.

The first half is well executed and entertaining, but the momentum wanes in the second half. Some scenes miss the mark emotionally, and the election subplot and climax seem rushed and underdeveloped.

The conflict and reunion scenes could have been more impactful to enhance the drama and emotional engagement. Some scenes appear forced, and confrontations involving characters like Sai Kumar and Goparaju Ramana lack depth. Although the heroines and their romantic subplots are well-crafted, they receive minimal screen time in the second half.

 

Technical Aspects:

Director Yadhu Vamsi delivers a visually engaging film with entertaining moments, though his writing needs refinement. Anudeep Dev’s music is enjoyable, featuring several standout tracks. The cinematography by Edurolu Raju captures the village setting beautifully, while the editing by Anwar Ali could have been tighter to enhance the film’s pacing. Production values are rich.

 

Verdict:

On the whole, Committee Kurrollu is a decent youthful comedy-drama that delivers laughs, nostalgia, and strong performances. While the second half lacks engagement and the storyline isn’t particularly captivating, it remains an enjoyable watch for a weekend, especially with friends, offering a generous dose of nostalgia.
