Story
Sudeep
(Sudeep) CEO of Sudeep Constructions is a womanizer who eyes Bindu
(Samantha) when she meets her seeking donation for her social service
through miniature art. In the process he kills Nani (Nani) who loves
Bindu, but Bindu never reciprocates though she admires her secretly in
her heart. Prior to his death Nani vows to exact revenge on who ever
eyes Bindu. How Nani exacts revenge forms the climax of ‘Eega’.
Performances
Nani
excelled as lover boy with helpful nature and his ease at comedy and
romantic expressions liven the first half. Sudeep expressed himself as
the possessive lover and construction company owner. Samantha’s
performance is the highlight for the film as she spellbound as Nani’s
secret admirer in the first half and a lover who lost her dear one.
However the emperor of the film is Rajamouli, who with his Eega made
every one dance to his tunes. While Eega romanced Samantha, it scared
Sudeep and spellbound all with its unique ways of seeking revenge and
also with its sensational dancing movements.
Analysis
Rajamouli
at the start of the film itself through small kid sends message that
all stories are routine and is coming with unique story on Eega. Though
many films in tollywood came earlier with animals like elephants, dogs,
snakes, birds, monkeys seeking revenge, revenge by Eega is something new
and this is where Rajamouli hit the success formula.
There
may be nothing much in the storyline and viewers need not use their
intelligence to guess the next scene. However Rajamouli’s narration and
script along with intelligent and extensive usage of graphics in Eega
made movie lovers look in awe. Lack of comedy, romance may be drawbacks
for the film but it was all forgotten by Eega’s breathtaking dances and
superlative methods to seek revenge.
Technicals
Director
Rajamouli should be lauded for thinking in a creative manner and become
trendsetter breaking the shackles of sticking to top heroes. He made
Eega a top hero which can challenge anyone. Keeravani’s background score
is gripping while his tunes are mesmerizing. Editing by Kotagiri
Vidyadhara Rao is fine.
Highlight
of the film is Senthil Kumar’s extraordinary cinematography giving the
inside view of the world from the eyes of Eega to movie lovers. The
locations and settings are beautiful and one will never blink an eyelid
when the film is screening. Graphics in the movie is never experienced
at such an extent in Telugu film industry and visuals simply stun all.
Production values of Vaarahi Films are of high standards. Film makers
showcased the true technical power of Telugu film proving that they too
can spellbound all with graphics and visuals.
Final
Movie lovers must experience the Eega’s Empire.
