Middle class melodies

Feel-good genre is common in every industry. But Middle class melodies offers a charm and pleasant feel after watching and that’s what tempted me to write about it though the plot isn’t fresh.

We are introduced to the family of Raghav (Anand Devarakoda) running a hotel. Raghav aspires to own another hotel and makes his ‘Bombay chutney’ popular.Raghav loves Sandhya(Varsha bollama) In parallel, another subplot unfolds as Gopal,Raghav’s friend working in a phone service shop loves a girl Gautami working in another phone shop.How can Raghav succeed in his dream? Will these couples unite?Well, beyond the answer,What matters here is the journey to find out the answer.

As I said above,Writers know that they need to introduce a good enough conflict to make the proceedings engaging enough. Their plan to make this story beyond the perspective of the protagonist really helps in connecting the movie to the audience. For instance: even the character of an old man (screen space is minimal) trying hard to make money for his grand daughter’s education stay with the viewer. Writer’s addition of few social issues (Waste disposing) too create an impact.

Morover, the humour quotient in the narration removes the drawbacks in storyline.The portion where the subplots of 2 couples connect makes you laugh. Background score at times expresses the emotions of the characters well.Cuts were fine enough except for few unneccessary sequences. For instance: Scene of Gautami’s father quarreling with auto driver wasn’t required in that situation. That scene was bit overdone.

Anand devarakonda did a quality performance in his debut venture. Varsha bollama performs quite well in the flashback portion.Her standout scene according to me is the scene in recharging shop. Other actors too were notable.

Middle class melodies,with a good mix of fun,food and romance offers a bunch of beautiful and pleasant moments to carry after the end.
