`Eega`
exceptionally innovative, technically brilliant
Rating ****
After the phenomenal success of his previous movies, director S.S. Rajamouli
once again comes up with an exceptionally innovative and technically brilliant
film like Eega.
The film is about a reincarnated housefly (computer generated in the film)
taking revenge from his cold-blooded murderer.
With the use of state-of-the-art technology in animation and computer graphics,
Rajamouli creates a new benchmark for the Indian film industry. Kannada actor
Sudeep also comes out with flying colours with his role as an antagonist. The
film will also release in 3D version towards the end of the year.
An innocent boy, Naani is in love with Bindu and tries to please her all the
time. Bindu also falls for him, but quite later. In the meantime, Sudeep who
owns a chain of companies, is smitten by Bindu`s charm.
Sudeep is someone who wants to have anything he likes, and so he tries his best
to woo Bindu. But Naani`s passionate love for Bindu gives rise to insecurity and
the wicked businessman kills him.
However, Naani returns as a housefly and starts tormenting Sudeep. The
housefly`s revenge makes Sudeep`s life all the more difficult and he sustains
huge financial losses. Sudeep fails in his attempts to kill the housefly and the
fly succeeds in taking its revenge in the end.
The story is old, but the execution is new and fresh. Eega is by far
the most brilliant animation and graphics film. The hardwork put in by the
entire team is clearly visible onscreen. In addition to that, Keervani`s music
gels well with the film`s narrative.
There are small mistakes, but they can be easily overlooked. It was a challenge
for an actor like Sudeep, who is a well-known name in the Kannada film industry,
but thankfully the risk proves to be beneficial for him.
He proves he is a matchless performer and is one of the finest actors in the
Indian film industry.
The film was equally challenging for an actor like Naani, who agreed to be a
part of it even after knowing that he would be there for just the first 20
minutes of the movie.
Samantha is cute and vulnerable. Her subtle expressions of love, fear and
anxiety work well for the film. All the other artists have also delivered
exceptional performances.
