SVCC or Sitamma Vakitlo Sirimalle chettu

 I recall reading some lines in Yandamuri. Real happyness is like godavari, slow but steady, calm and forever. Gratification due to some other material reasons are like a brook or creek, Like a surge but goes to zero pretty fast.

Some of my friends used to compare this with Ilayaraja mustic vs A.R.Rahman music. Many of the Ilayaraja songs are alive today across generations. But those instant successes from A.R were forgotten (though A.R gave wonderful melodies).

The movie, SVCC is quite similar to the above if we compare this with Dookudu or Pokiri. It is going to be an evergreen movie for Sankranti. There are no sumo blasts, or talks about vamsam (lineage) or skin show or songs shot in expensive sets or foreign locations, and no routing comedy.

It is a simple, middle class drama which we all have experienced at some part of our life. Be it as a son or brother or dad or wife, sister, mom.

Appreciation must go to the entire team but especially to the Director who made this happened. Great job.

Aarakshan - Good concept, improvement needed on screenplay/execution.

Managed to catch Aarakshan. I wouldn't say this is a perfect film, but Mr.Jha managed to deliver a decent picture. Amitabh, no need to comment on his acting skills. Saif is great and Deepika is OK.

The problem of yogyata vs aarakshan or Merit vs Reservation is such that it affects both parties. Personally I am against to it as long as its based on your religion or caste. I fully support if it's for physically challenged or ex-servicemen. Based on financial status is good too but as long as it's based on caste, religion we are not going to overcome the problem.

The movie is banned in Uttar Pradesh, Andhra Pradesh & Punjab for reasons known to the leaders there. But if you are living in rest of India or overseas I'd recommend spending couple of hours..
