Happy days (Movie review)

If you ask any one who has completed his/her college, What are you best and most happiest days in your life? then the answer would definitely be - College days. This is the theme of the movie and the title is apt and sounds brilliant. Shekhar kammula always deals with the simple things yet which make their impression on life.

Casting :
Casting is good and fair. The charactes fitted into the groove nicely.

Story:
Sweet and simple. Life(Few of the chapters) in engineering college.
The first half deals with making new friends , seniors, ragging and freshers party which goes on in the first year of engineering.
The second half deals with love, jealously, envy, not to forget farewell party and ofcourse campus placements too.

Performances :
Though everyone looked naive in their appearances and their acting skills they fitted the bill nicely and did a decent job. They have become instant stars and their pics are famously dispayed in orkut nowadays. Everyone wants to be a chandu or tyson or rajesh or madhu or shravz or appu. My friend murali says he's Rajesh.hehehehe

Music :
Music director Mickey J Meyer has done a decent job. Even though few of the songs remind you of some other old songs, they are hippy, hummable and good.
The background music is netter comparatively to the music in the songs.

Screenplay, Dialogues:
Screenplay is just like a river. It flows smoothly throughtout the three hours.
Dialogues are in colloquical form and few of them really stand out.Good job done by Shekar Kammula again. Especially Tyson dialogues at times are touching.

Direction:
He who uses his actors skillfully is a good director and Shekhar kammula is the best example. Without him the movie would not have been same. He worked with many new comers in this movie but pulled off something out of nothing from them. He has done has great job.Hatts off!

Best thing:
Dint show any negatives and influences the audience in a right note for example no bunks and everybody studys well.

Climax:
Happy days has a happy ending.

Rating 4/5
