Arya 2 Movie Review

Movie : Arya 2 Rating: 2.5/5 Cast : Allu Arjun, Kajal, Navadeep, Sraddha Arya, Ajay, Brahmanandam, and others Directed by : Sukumar Produced by : Aditya Babu & Boghav Banner : Aditya Arts Music : Devi Sri Prasad Release Date : 2009-11-27 The much-awaited film Arya 2 starring Allu Arjun in the lead is a visual treat to watch, but few flaws in its narration makes it an average entertainer. Story: Arya(Allu Arjun) and Ajay(Navadeep) are childhood friend and both of them leads the life of an orphan. On one fateful day a rich couple adopts Ajay. Ajay grows as a rich guy and later he starts a software company. Arya joins his company as an employee. Geetha(Kajal) is the new employee of the company. Both Arya and Ajay falls in love with Geetha. Whom does Geetha choose as her lover forms the rest of the story. Performances: Allu Arjun: He is an apt choice to the role of Arya. He has done complete justice to his role. He sports a new look for this film. His costumes are trendy. He excels in dances. His dance movements in the film are definitely one of the best in his career. It's a treat to watch him in songs. Kajal: She looks beautiful. She plays the role of a confused girl about love in a convinsing way. Navadeep comes up with a neat performance. Shraddha Das adds to the glamour quotient of the film. Brahmanandam comedy track is hilarious. Mukesh Rushi, Shayaji Shinde and Ajay are Okay. Plus Points: Allu Arjun's screen presence Cinematograhy Songs Minus Points: Allu Arjun's characterization Narration Run Time Technical Departments: Cinematography is of top notch. Editing could have been better. Music is excellent. The picturization and placement of songs is brilliant. Direction by Sukumar is good. Production values of the film are grand. Dialogues are good. Analysis: Allu Arjun's characterization is a big setback to Arya 2. Sometimes he acts as a psycho and sometimes as a obsessive lover, which leaves the audience in a confused state. First half of the film is Okay. Second half is better, when compared to first half. Verdict: Fails to live-up to the expectations. But, it's definitely worth watching once for its stylish making.

Releasing Today: Allu Arjun's 'Arya-2'

The time has come for the most talked about movie of the season to take the litmus test. We are talking about ‘Arya-2’ and this has stylish star Allu Arjun in the lead and he is pairing up with the saucy seductress Kajal Agarwal. There is also the second pair of Navadeep along with the hot and sexy Shraddha Das.

The film is directed by Sukumar while Aditya Babu is the producer. Already, the audio has become a chartbuster and the song ‘Ringa Ringa…’ has been creating a mania. The tunes composed by Devisri Prasad have worked really well for the movie and the expectations are high on this one.

Though the film is titled ‘Arya 2’ it is not a sequel to the original blockbuster ‘Arya’. Many in the Tollywood fraternity are hoping that this should bring some smiles to the film fraternity as many promising movies have failed. Good luck to Allu Arjun and team!!!

The alleged abuse victim at the centre of Michael Jackson 1993 molestation scandal has cleared the late star’s name by saying the King of Pop ‘never touched’ him, the singer’s brother Jermaine has revealed. Jordan Chandler was 13 when his father Evan claimed that Jackson had molested his son.

Jordan, now 29, was said to have spoken about the case since Jackson’’s death, confessing the superstar never molested him, it was claimed. Jermaine further believed that Jordan’’s dad Evan committed suicide earlier this month over his guilt of falsely accusing the Thriller hitmaker. "From the ’'93 case, they were accusing him (Jackson) of just the most horrible things,” Contactmusic quoted Jermaine as saying. “This kid’’s father has committed suicide because he just couldn’'t take it and now the kid has come forward and said Michael never touched him," he added. The body of 56-year-old Evan Chandler was found with a single gunshot to his head with the gun still in his hand. Officials ruled his death a suicide.(ANI)

Shah Rukh is funny: Amitabh

Bollywood megastar Amitabh Bachchan says Shah Rukh Khan left him in a jovial mood after the latter called him to confirm his presence at the premiere of upcoming film "Paa". "Shah Rukh has remained with me in the late afternoon. He is a very funny man and shakes me into joviality when I inform him about the premiere and his absolute presence there. He tells me, ’He is already there, black suited and with anticipation of seeing ’Paa’," Amitabh posted on his blog. "Aamir too communicates today and confirms his presence," he added. The cast and crew of "Paa" - including Amitabh, Abhishek and director R. Balakrishnan have major plans for the film’s premiere Dec 3 in Mumbai. Amitabh plays a 12-year-old progeria patient in "Paa" and he had to stick on several pieces of specially crafted clay to get the right look for the movie. The disease causes premature ageing among children. International make-up artist Stephan Dupuis designed Big B’s look and the megastar had to sit for five-six hours for the make-up. The 67-year-old says he is now anxious about how the audience and critics will react to the film. "Slowly but surely the jig saw puzzle will begin to unfold. The test of all our hours and hours of effort at the film shall now be up for scrutiny. And within two hours and 14 minutes the verdict shall be passed. Once passed, shall remain passed. Such is the destiny of those that participate in this wondrous game of filmmaking," he said. The film is releasing Dec 4.(TNN)
