My theory: This is a trend I have seen happen whenever SS Rajamouli film has released. The subsequent films released don't really get that audience reception (unless it's an over the top/ massy film with huge stars). For a brief period, audience only wants to watch grand films on the screen.
Obviously..I am Not Going to watch Any Romantic or Social Movies in Theatre Unless it's too Good .. I Go To Theatre For Theatre Experience (cheering) And If Movie Visually Good like Interstellar.. .
Why will I go to Watch a movie which will have Not any difference if u watch it in home or theatres .lol
This could become a problem for small movies in future.. Audience have to choose between shamshera, vikrant Rona, Thor and lal singh chadda in the next one month.. no space for small movies..

Yeah this is 100% true.....
Like how "Anjeneyalu" flopped even though it is wonderful movie only bcs it released after "Maghadeera" and there are some examples small movies under perform after SSR films in AP and telengana
Ante sundaraniki is a true gem its like a screwball comedy , the humor and characters are very grounded. It may not be for everyone but in coming years it may be overlooked.
I found it to be so funny! Genuinely witty, did not come across as forced at all! 2 hours 53 mins went by so fast!
@@TriedRefusedProductions Review of VIRATA PARVAM
And REALLY LOVED THIS IN THE THEATER
like so good as a Telugu person
@@TriedRefusedProductions I couldn't believe it when some people were complaining about runtime even before watching the film.
@@TriedRefusedProductions exactly it was quirky Ig it was because the characters are inherently flawed unlike regular moralists and the music is so very good highly underrated its very experimental.
@@TriedRefusedProductions have you seen the last scene on the island.. I think you missed it.. watch it again.
This is what a review means to me. Not being biased by public opinion, sticking to personal thoughts.
Can't believe many Telugu reviewers bashed the movie to be laggy (which seemed to be the social media feedback as well) irrespective of the quality of the content.
No one bashed the films..
I watched in theatre. Movie is good but it feel laggy. For ott 3 hours is good but theatre i fell laggy. Despite movie is good and casting did very good job. So many people didn't connect with the movie and that runtime did a number on so many people.
I dont think Lag is the word to associate , i agree it's a long film but it never lags. It keeps you hooked as the story progresses
Maybe that's what their personal opinion was.
People can have different opinions about 1 thing.
@@edwinvarghese9782 agreed 100%
The main reason why Ante Sundaraniki failed was because of continuous releases of big hit movies like Major, Vikram, F3. Also RRR and Kgf 2 left many audiences wanting for huge budgeted movies, hence the movie did not have many audience. Also the ticket prices in Telugu states were reduced compared to other movies, hence the collections were pretty low. However, the movie is still considered as a great film by Telugu speaking audience. In the past too movies like 1, Orange etc despite being great movies, turned out to be a disaster because they were released due to a bad timing.
And lack of good promotion is also one of the reason

@@apurv4800 then how 777 charlie has got huge success.dont give excuse for worst movie you telugu fool
And also ante sundarikani was disaster in Karnataka due to 777 Charile. And also in Telugu states on 3rd week 777 Charlie ( kannada film) was holding 100+ shows where as ante sundarikani ( original Telugu film ) was viped totally in its own land
There is a scene at the start of the movie where the kids enact a drama about social inequality called 'Tholi Adugu'. Everyone in the school claps their hands and go back to their normal lives forgetting the message from the drama they just saw. Even real life is the same. As much as the people claim to be modern, we just cannot let go of our preconceived notions.
I'm so damn happy to see this movie getting the recognition it deserves. Seeing this movie tanked is such a sorry state of affairs. Vivek Athreya is one of the most talented film makers in the industry!
Delayed recognition for a movie = No recognition for the movie. Sadly, movies must make money in the box office. There are so many movies in Tamil especially, Kamal Hassan’s movies that had the same fate. Aatirathil Oruvan (2010) also had the same fate!
it is still underrated 🥲
Ante Sundaraniki is a one of a kind film.... this can be said because how the director shows the story, the screenplay and the characters and the feelings around it very beautifully. The charm of nani and nazriya's chemistry with him was really good. The comedy wasn't forced but just came out organically, you could feel the humor and enjoy it, and even when nani and character spoke fast it made the movie more interesting and by the second half ending, the movie was in such a state u wanted to know what is going to happen next which is sign of a really good film. The romance brewing slowly throughout the film not only between the leads but over all was also goood. One of the most amazing things I loved about it was how the director chose to take its time and give the child actors some space and create it in such a way that it always adds essence to the story and the child actors aren't just left as some prop for a flashback. Talking about the songs Entha Chitram and Thandananandha were the soulful melodies, other songs may not be so much memorable or enjoyable when you listen to them as a single but they gave a great impression and mesmerized the movie with it!!
One of the other things which I loved was how the director chose to display the film considering the run time being 2h 53m which some may consider a risky move.
Now why this film may have been a flop or had underperformed (based on what I saw in Hyderabad) because of saturation of films and the cost of the films considering this was a family film.
Very true. I actually got attracted to the movie by seeing the trailer itself,though I am not someone who judges a movie by its trailer.
@@meenakshisundaram174 when you say tall, you know right you filter almost no one🤣🤣, drop a message to me on personal!!
The movie director Vivek athreya is a fan of legend K Viswanath garu. Ante sundaraniki has similarities with saptapadi

@@TriedRefusedProductions
then you should check out the directors previous 2 films -
Mental Madhilo and Brochevarevaru Raa
Vivek Athreya.... He is a sensible and witty storyteller
@@TriedRefusedProductions the screenplay in Brochevarevarura is mind boggling
This was the best writing and screenplay i have seen since a long time. Can't really guess why it's a flop.Only feels sad for VIVEK and NANI's efforts to do so much different and new.
agreed. they deserved better.
Idk man, people preach about good content, and when it comes, they easily give it a miss😔
I think the reason is that the craze of Vikram in Telugu states was quite unexpected. People thought it would become a good dubbed movie after its release,but no one expected the case of kgf 1 repeating itself again. Due to this the theatre count for nani's movie reduced. Live example being me watching "Vikram" on 22nd June with a packed theatre and not finding screens or shows near me for "ante sundaraniki".
@Rishith Mulukalla Vikram deserves all the hype, Kgf is 2rs sh1t. So I want Vikram 2 to be a super duper mega hit.

A guy beside kept bickering with his friends throughout the movie that it felt like a boring serial while i was there unbothered by his tantrums, genuinely laughing ear to ear. The technical aspects and creative choices they made during some shots were so new to many of us in tollywood films really made me excited while watching it. Easily the best telugu film this year.
3:55 That's exactly what I felt when I watched it in theatre. No cliche love dialogues or scenes...Stylish screenplay, natural acting. I loved this film as much as the director's previous movie, Brochevarevarura. I just didn't understand why the Telugu reviewers were so negative about this movie.
Thanks for the honest review, though.
It's not negativity dude, Audience already spent lot of money on subsequent High Budget movies like RRR, KGF, VIKRAM....so Audience decided to watch it in OTT.
@@mnjssm2013 that's possible dude. But, my comment was about negative reviews from Telugu reviewers.
@@venkat4502 they are politically polarized people. Never trust telugu. reviewers
@@venkat4502 yesterday I watched this movie, I really liked it. Review channels are killing movies.

Nazriya is probably the only actress who plays similiar kind of roles in almost all films (banglore days,oso,rajarani,as etc)but still entertains the audience bcz of talent❤
She tried something different in trance tho
True. But,trance was an exception.
thats true... she is never boring on acreen.. ❤️❤️❤️
Is that supposed to be a praise?
In actor it's karthik Aryan who plays same Role in different films
You should watch, revisit and review 1) Gentleman ( Starring Nani) 2) Shekar Kamula - Anand 3) Anasuya (Bhoomika Chawla) 4) Anukokunda Oka Roju (Charmee Kaur) 5) Bhale Bhale Mgadivoy (Starring Nani) , I can vouch for all these movies
Anukokunda Oka roju.. is unique and sadly no one attempted similar movies in Telugu there after..
And Okkadunnadu also being a commercial movie is so different..

I watched this gem of a movie in theaters and God I was blown away by the screenplay and the performances... My fav scenes are with the boss.. The boss and the sundar has ultimate chemistry 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣.... But I think the reason for this movie's less collection is the lack of interest people are showing to these simple feel good movies 🤔
Concentrate chesi em peekarandi 😂😂😂😂
the starting animation tho 😂😂
The instrument is the Veena, not the Sitar. 😜
Also, it was a beautiful film and the sensitivity with which it handled issues like inter-religious marriages, premarital pregnancies and other medical issues was commendable. The comedic sequences that play out at Sundar and Leela's homes seem very real and the conversations, esp at Sundar's place are very real. Brahmin households in the south are indeed that conservative.
What a beautiful movie! Nani never disappoints with his choice of script! As you said it, meticulous! The screenplay, character sketch and edit, all were spot on along with the Casting! Such a familiar premise with a new perspective! Complete family entertainer!
I can see a Bollywood producer making the call and prepping for a remake!
Vivek Athreya has unique style of making a movie that you can see in his previous film brochevarevarura (never seen that kind of storytelling) that movie is a gem.
and now for ante sundaraniki (the way conversations take place with their younger selves is cute and meaningful)
eagerly waiting for his next ventures
Mental madhilo is also very good movie..
@@sumanthhema true!!!
@Muhammad Suleman No doubt in that!!!
@Muhammad Suleman 💯💯
My parents by chance saw this movie when they traveled to Hyderabad. They were just singing praises about this movie ever since they came back.
I absolutely loveddd this movie...idk if Hindi people will find it just as funny as we telugu people do tho. The comedy might get lost in translation but I haven't laughed this much in a while. Everything was excellent..the writing, the acting, the messaging, the screenplay. Its only drawback is its length. They could've cut 20 mins.
It flopped? Bruh. That is sad. I loved it so much as I was craving a good Telugu comedy film for a long time. I then decided to take my grandparents along with me for a rewatch. Such a nice film.
Thanks for reviewing it Jammy.
@Jeong Tae Ra Byte Nothing to do w that film, more about Vikram, Major and F3.
A great film indeed. Probably suffering because of the period in which it released!
@@Rohan-ly7fz Major and Vikram has Good content in it but F3 really I don't understand why people liked a Shit like F3 and Disliked Ante sundaraniki
Good for the cringe 😤
@@PSPK_Supporter_31 Well most families don't find it cringe, they enjoy that style of comedy. Idk how but they do. Movie collected around 80cr gross.
@@TriedRefusedProductions Ticket prices were high for this movie and nani had some controversy regarding ticket prices in ap, release of major,777 and vikram , songs are not promoted properly (entha chitram is my favourite song ) no tv commercial
I am seeing first time in your review that you haven't mentioned underwhelming aspects, this indicates how much you loved the movie. Ante Sundaraniki is a damn good movie which has different screenplay. It has importance to many characters in this movie. I don't know why most Telugu reviewers had an issue with the length of this movie. Even though the movie is almost 3 hrs, it never felt boring for me, It engaged me throughout the film with it's beautiful screenplay. After Shekhar Kammula, Vivek Athreya has become my favorite director in Telugu cinema
Before some ignorants shitting out on Telugu audience for making it flop need to see this. Ante sundaraniki has competition with Major , Vikram , F3 , Charlie 777 , Virataparvam etc and not to forget those high ticket prices. Still it collected 40 cr gross . If telugu people are tasteless they wouldn't have made Major and Vikram blockbuster at box office. If Ante sundaraniki released without competition it would have been a super hit because rom com genre films are always hugely appreciated at telugu cinema box office....
Yeah, 250 is way too much for any film in Multiplexes.
@@Rohan-ly7fz single screens used to 100-110 rs and now they are like 150 , it's huge

Well said brother
I feel the movie didn't fail coz of its content, the reasons have got more to do with the time of release and its ticket prices. It released after F3, Major and Vikram. So was always gonna be tough and the ticket price in Hyd was too high for family audience to go to theatres again after the previous releases.
Despite all this and the movie's runtime, it grossed 40+cr and got profits in USA. I personally loved the movie and was engaged throughout. Easily best telugu film so far this year (yes, including overhyped RRR).
Ticket Price Nornmal Bro And I Think Because Of There Are Lot Movies Released F3 ,Major,Vikram And Major Double Blockbuster In Telugu
Everything's fine, but overhyped RRR😂😂😂😂
Find it peculiar to see even the Americans and Europeans connecting to it, but the local natives calling it overhyped. It is undoubtedly the best mass commercial film ever made(the ability to generate that level of mass hysteria without being a sequel or connected to any other movie makes it unique than any other)
@@kiraakgang5797 I feel Vikram is most over hyped....
Why U Not Mention KGF 2 And RRR Released Before KGF2 And KGF 2 Overhyped
@@as-tb9jn Going against popular opinions is considered cool and intellectual now. So if you wanna come across as cool and smart, you have to hate a mainstream movie by supporting an underrated movie. People have really forgotten that they can praise a movie without discrediting another movie.
I watched it twice in theatre! No off scenes and even has social message! I wonder why ppl didn't like it! And I even wonder why Nani movies face such criticism like MCA, Tuck Jagadish and V. I liked all of them.🙌
MCA is routine movie
If you have liked Mca tuck jagadish and V then definitely u r a fan of Nani
Only v is good
Gangleader is very underrated.
@@aadhuu correctt
I felt this is one of the well written movie in a long time. Easily one in my top 10 list for its inventive, engaging and flawless screenplay. I did try catch this in the theatres, but eventually missed it for various reasons. I deeply regret it. At the age when Love stories have reached its saturation, with no interest from the audience, none saw this coming. May be that is one the reason for less foot fall, along with multiple releases happening around the same time. The positives are so much that I am not able point out one negative about this movie. A perfect film which stands out from the rest in the era of over the top and hero, action and one man show movies.
IMO, the film didn't fail due to the content or direction. Telugu audience always encouraged good romcoms. Likes of Nani/Devarakonda got their initial stardom through well made romcoms. I believe, the main issue for this movie not to work is High ticket prices in Telugu states, Effect of RRR ( Larger than life films), Nani's acting in such romcoms. He is a brilliant actor but in recent times, his acting seems to be the same especially in romcoms which isn't pulling audience to theatres.
I have watched this yesterday and really regret not watching it in theatres. My most favourite scene in the movie is when Sundar expresses his love for Leela. That was brilliantly written.
No. Leela expresses her love, Then Sundar is so excited, you can feel his heavy breathing.
That climax, I thought my heart would explode from the tension,gosh i never even felt like that in a suspense thriller movies
For days after release I was constantly looking for this movie review in your feed. Thought you might be missing this gem because of tight schedule but glad you checked it in Netflix. In my opinion, I think you should take slow on your schedule (I mean process of reviewing every major film irrespective of what excites you), cause your keen eye to this kind of movies is a precious thing
Nazriya & Nani was the sole reason for watching the movie....loved it..the chemistry between the leads....the songs...the emotional scenes...awesome❤
Yesterday , i watch this movie at 11pm randomly in netflix. This movie is so good i finished this movie at around 2am without any problem. This movie made me stick around with the story. Amazing movie. Literally i can put myself in the movie and think about what would i have done if i was in his place. :D
Beautifully put across. Watched in theatre. Terrific Director, camera work, excellent cast, background music, perfectly songs set. Loved this genre of movies (where commercial aspect takes a back seat n pure delight) woven the human emotions without getting preachy.
How the director dealt with interfaith love, covering every single person's perspective is commendable. I was filled with extreme joy and satisfaction at the end of the movie while leaving the theatre. When I watched, theatre was jam packed and there were good laughs. I didn't know till now that this movie didn't perform well. One reason I could think of is conservative people, mainly such parents, may not like this core concept of interfaith marriage and children lying to parents.
No. First one hour was so boring that scared away repeat viewers. Also resulted in above avg word of mouth.. I don’t mind being wrong with this analysis..
Absolutely loved this review. Agree with every single point made, hope Nani never changes, and Nazriya keeps getting such gems to showcase her talent! But Jammy, serious props to you, for putting the effort in knowing the minute details of the Telugu film industry. Especially your point with Shekhar Kammula got all my heart! (I had commented the exact thing on one of your previous videos!)
I got reminded of my own journey with Telugu movies, but I had cousins to guide me through. Kudos to you!
I watched this movie and then Thor this weekend, and came out shaking my head about how I missed the former in theaters, and went to watch the latter instead!
Back to back big films every weekend also affected this film a lot , that to being a class film
Yes. That dance sequence was simply fabulous.
He was so graceful! The genes are clearly apparent!
I loved this movie! Not everyone gonna like it as it’s for modern audience i would say. Someone who is passionate at film making or into films will have one heck of a time watching this movie
The recent debacles of good Indian films (not hindi, not south, only Indian) like tumbadd, bhavesh joshi, dear comrade, republic, runway 34, jhund, virata parvam, rocketry, and now ante sundaraniki tells a lot about the sad state of Indian audiences....are there any other good films left by these people to meet the same fate!
Rocketry is doing well in the 2nd week after good WOM. Here in TN it is doing good alongside other small releases
both tumbadd and bhavesh joshi failed due to proper marketing,not due to audience.
Rocketry is not worth it. Over the top drama for a biopic .
@@LanguageExpert-hg8do there's very less drama in it.
Virata Parvam is crap...
And Dear Comrade isn't a recent movie...
loved every bit of this movie... the funny part is that I kept checking how much time was left for movie to get over... everytime I saw there is still a lot of the movie got me hooked even more...
also loved the treatment of caste issue and bringing out the humanity love compassion that overpowers everything....
truly said beautiful love story... lovely in all aspects simply splendid
Thanks for bringing this into public, I have had a great time laughing heartfully in the theater along with the audience. It was such a memorable experience for me. Even I am confused why it had not performed well at the box office.
Unfortunately this is just the protocol we will be witnessing in the next 2 years deserving movies are better suited to ott which are subtle now majority of audience prefers escapism larger than life movies Ofcourse there will be some anomaly and exceptions
Ironically chemistry was my favorite subject in school
Coincidence 😜
Honestly Jammy, This video if released when the movie was in theatres would have given the movie additional promotion.
At this point your videos are not just reviews but also a deciding factor to watch something in theatres.
ah mann, can't tell you how good this makes me feel. Might sound exaggerating when I say I had goosebumps watching your review. I felt like someone heard me finally and resonated with every single aspect I loved about this gem of a movie. The screenplay and the design of the direction, are truly masterclass. Beginning from the titles, the director worked so hard with the detailing and nuances which just blew my mind especially when we realize how much thought is put into even the slightest of the details. I have no clue why it didn't work with the audience and I don't care at this point. However, I wish directors like him are not discouraged and producers still give these talents a chance.
Last but not least, I hated Joseph's character too and that's the brilliance of the actor hidden inside the skin of a director. Did you notice why Atreya named him 'Joseph'?
Hello there! Just a correction... the instrument which Sundar's grandmother plays is Veena... it is not sitar. Veena is generally mostly played or used in carnatic music which is popular in south India.
This review makes me so happy & I completely agree. I had been awaiting it's release ever since I saw it's trailers and was disheartened to know that it didn't do well in theatres.
A beautiful one of a kind movie that has been added to my list of favorite films 😇💙
The person who portrayed Nani's boss in the film is Harshavardhan whose many successful roles involves the telugu serial Amrutham. This serial is very near to my heart as I remember our whole family used to sit together for it's weekly / daily episodes. It was really one of a kind.
Telugu people had no money left 😂
RRR, KGF !
Major just a week before.
It's a wonderful movie and am sooo much in love with the screen play of first half... 🤩
Such a fresh treatment to the love story.. Really enjoyed this one
I didn't look at the film's runtine ahead of the screening and I never felt that the film was about 3 hours long. Icing on the cake was I watched it in a packed theater in Pondicherry while I was on a vacation. It was a surreal experience overall but sadly the film underperformed at the box office.
The reference with family guy in the beginning is everything 🙌🔥🔥
Thx for recognising this gem atleast now, hope this movie will get it's due recognition & appreciation atleast now.. 1 of best rom-com with relevant msg at these times 🙂

Yet Another Underrated Movie From TFI! But Overseas Audience Well Appreciated The Film Commercially! I think TFI don’t deserve movies like Jersey, Shyam Singha Roy And Ante Sundaraniki! They Never Encourage The Master Piece! But Ante Sundaraniki is Truly a Gem!
We Must Appreciate Nani And Director Vivek!
Ante Sundaraniki is another Master Piece by Nani.
Thats not the case. It was just a bad release date and it was already competing with vikram and major which were running well. There were just too many movies.
watching nani's films feel like home cooked meal, sure restaurant food can be presented like grandiose (larger than life films) and all but home cooked meal is comfort and heartwarming. i just watched the film with my mother and the fact that she herself agreed just how many more parents there are like leela's and sundar's still in todays "metropolitan" cities. this movie def hit some of their ego's very well. the director did not shy away from showing the conservative natures in both the religions and I LOVED every part of it. the way they are portrayed is not at all far from true
some people did really felt the lag in the second half, but i felt like it was needed for the emotions to be flushed out perfectly
I'm a big fan of Nani and this was an amazing movie which I've been waiting for so long to watch. You've covered all the positive aspects.
There are few aspects which I felt. I might've watched Shyam Singha Roy atleast 10 times by now. The magic of Nani and all other cinematic aspects were the same. But the anxiety that this movie has put me through in the second half, it is something that might not drive me to watch again and again. Probably I'm not yet a good viewer of cinemas, but the second half with the constant lying to their loved ones put me through a lot of guilt/emotional ride that was tough for me to watch.
What a pity that such good movies go unnoticed 😕 Thanks for your great review and comments!
Just because it’s not glittering, doesn’t mean it’s not precious.. so many underrated gems lost around.. thanks to your reviews , we still find them.. ❤️
I loved this movie and I made my wife watch it as well (My second viewing). She said "I like it but didn't love it. It was lagging at times".
She also thought that childhood scenes could have been trimmed. And his restaurant scenes with his boss also could have been trimmed.
Different opinions in the same house.
Maybe that's what most people felt. We'll never know
Thank you so much for the review! Ended up watching this last night and man! What a lovely watch it was! Loved the first half like crazy.
Added to watchlist. Thanks Jammy!
Agreed, it was such a gem, the direction, acting and flow was beautiful!! I thoroughly enjoyed it though I believe that the length could have been trimmed. Also even though I could relate to the theme…it was the old traditional concept showcased within todays millennials and I feel that somewhere relatability was lost between both segments…this is a movie for 90s kids!!
As the movies are releasing within no time in OTT audience are now very clear what to watch on big screen vs what can be seen on OTT , when a film like Vikram is released at the same time as ante sudaraniki ... movie lovers will surely run for Vikram not because ante sudaraniki is not worth of theatrical experience but more of theatrical experience of Vikram and magic of ante sudaraniki can be experienced on OTT as well.
Nani is such an amazing actor 😇 the variety of roles in Jersey, shyama singha rao and now this! He nails every scene and has a high relatability factor and when coupled with such a power house talent like nazriya 🤗, amazing to see she has retained her charm after so long such a joy to see her back on screens. Only wish she continues to give us such good roles, would be a big loss if she goes back to anonymity, she has superlative talent and screen presence that elevates nani's performance too. Movie is thoroughly entertaining and the success factor how they have easily blended social issues with entertainment. So many to point out here where to begin? The issues the boy faces in his childhood to the problems the girls face the moment they reach 'marriage age' shows the suffocation Indians live with on a daily basis. I had stopped watching the movie in between but thanks to JP, saw this gem now and thoroughly loved it 💜
What a lovely film with a lot of subtleties thrown in. And Nani is such a rockstar with his understated performance. What i loved about this film was the emotional interplay between the father, son & the grand mother. And what terrific performances by the supporting cast. Thanks for recommending this.
I think many people like me waited to watch the movie when it comes on ott and opted for vikram. But watched it last night. Vivek met my expectations well after his last blockbuster brochevarevarura. Related to every scene shown in the movie. killed it with screenplay and music.
We don't see Nani, We see Sundar. Nani did great job in this movie. Good bgm and great performances

I have always been fan of southern cinema but couldn't find the gems until my colleagues recommend.
All thanks to you and your reviews which are acting as a bridge for pure cinema lovers. I love watching sount Indian movies with the subtitles to enjoy the pure emotions and this movie hits the cord right.
I don't remember which was the last movie i watched which have me so much bliss. This is the most wholesome movie i have seen in recent years. I experienced all emotions while watching this. The character arcs of the cast was so defined.loved the bond between Sundar and his mother. I was fully engrossed in the movie like Sundar's manager 😅
Thanks for the great work you are doing! ❣️
Ante Sundariniki was so good! You are absolutely right about screenplay being innovative and stylish.. Yes, it was long but one doesn't get bored for a single minute as the screenplay keeps you hooked... Nani's a treat to watch especially in the scenes with Soumya and his boss!
Even I regret it.. 😓 even though the movie is a long watch, I honestly did not feel any part of it to be dragged or boring.. Such a clean rom-com...
Watched this film today and trust me I've genuinely felt that this film didnt deserve such an underwhelming response. I truly felt that this is a cute tale which deserved to be celebrated.
I had the same feeling bro when I finished watching it. Should have been watched in the theatre. Always good to hear your review. I searched for your review after I finished watching it. Couldn't find that time. Keep up the good work bro
Thank you for this review, it is much needed. I never thought a review can make me this happy.
No mystery, I can tell the reason. After watching RRR, KGF, VIKRAM, akhanda audience are looking for movies similar kind . They need some or all below
1. Big scale
2. illogical fights
3. Elevations
4. Stupid songs
5. Lengthy punch dialogues
6. Comedy
7. Most importantly no lag.
You got to know why Akhanda was hit and Ante Sundharaniki was flop?
Main reason was audience felt lag especially extended childhood scenes and repeated scenes (though director trimmed very well those scenes but still), but that feeling they carried out entire movie. Nani going against govt (Jagan) and calling PK for function is also a reason.
Till last year comedy was enough to become hit, but now even that is not enough. For me , this is one of the best RomCom movie in recent times
I watched it on Netflix the other day (god bless subtitles!) and it was everything I wish Hindi cinema game me - a charming romcom that amuzes and moves you in equal parts with actual chemistry among leads who are real breathing human beings instead of characters written by folks who get their ideas from WhatsApp forwards. I really miss that phase of Hindi cinema a lot
I watched this masterpiece last night and was hoping for a review from you. And here it is already🤩.
You deserve that smash on the like button for such an honest review.
Bro, don't ever miss watching a Nani's film in theatre. He always comes with one or other unique film.
There could be many reasons for a film not working at the box office no point digging that out, however my observation is maybe there was a lot of content at that time, example f3, major, Vikram so maybe the audience wanted to take a break from movies.
If it was released in the month of July I think it would have done great business.
Me thinks that currently, nani is the best actor in Tollywood. Though, he has his own shares of mistakes when it comes to script selection, which everyone does.
Nani ❤️❤️❤️
After Dasara, Nani should focus on commercial mass movies like Nenu local MCA type . It will help to give box office potential
@@podemsahithnitap1840 no way
He shouldn't do thoss cringe movie just for the sake of box office success
@@ani-po1tdyes bro .I know that. But, when he did content based films and performance oriented like bheemili kabbadi jattu, pilla zamindar ,yevade subrahmyam jpk ,kvpg, gentleman ,Jersey, shyamsingharoy,ante sundaraniki. These movies became small hits,flop, average and collecting less revenue at box office . When he did scrap like Nenu local MCA. These movies became block buster
and making big revune at box office.
I didnt go to theatres owing to avg reviews!! But boy did I miss this Absolute Gem of a Film in theatres😔. for the first time I hate the reviewers and even the SM WOM was also not that great!! as you said it's really a mystery how this film didnt find appreciation that it deserves
I would have missed it if not for your review..Thank You for being the best in what you do 👍
A great movie...was wondering you have not recommended it yet.
In India we should consider ourselves lucky to have so many varieties of movies to choose from
Nani 😍 is my favourite. He’s so versatile 💯…. Waiting for his PAN India movie,,,, I watched Ante Sundaraniki in Netflix with English subtitles. It’s a good movie.
Loved the movie. Nani is such a good actor. Both emotions and comic timing on point. Watched a feel good movie after a long time.
The direction says it all.... So fresh and entertaining!!! With an excellent sound design also.....
Direction, screenplay, music, Nani and Nazariya, both kids and other cast - top notch! I didn't felt any lag not even timespan of 2hrs 53min. That much grabbed into the scenes. Enjoyed a lot. It would have been encouraging to the producers and directors to go more on these kind of films if it was a commercial success too!
Poor publicity is one of the reasons. I saw tremendous meme page posts when teaser of the movie was released.But when it comes to trailer and movie,they are very few. Believe me or not,meme pages are deciding fate of a movie in telugu regions.
Let me tell you about a detail that is so easily missed.. the house that Nani lives in over time is the same, but the astrologer they go to, his house gets bigger, slicker and moderner!! Absolutely brilliant detailing!!
Finally u came up with this .. been asking you for ages .. the release date was the main problem .when u said love stories are absent then u have missed lot of such movies in telugu .Reason being vikram as it was running too good and Ante could not stand .But this movie was a laughter ride 🤌Zz.
Watched you video in the morning, watched the movie in the afternoon, loved it sooo much. The natural manner of comedy is missing is Bollywood at large. The refreshing and organic romance. Though Hindi speaking Punjabi, I am fallen in love with cinematic gems from south. I pray nobody tries to copy this in Bollywood and kill it’s beauty in the process. Please make video with recommendation list of more regional language movies.
Thanks for the love ❤️ for south Indian movies, Just to make sure there are 5 different industries in the south. Telugu, Tamil, Kannada, Malayalam, and Tulu movies. As a movie lover and language lover, I regularly watch and can understand pretty well all south Indian languages so I would like to suggest some beautiful movies from south industries. Mostly I will recommend romcoms and love stories, mam. I think 🤔 you may love them, watch all Shekar kammula movies( Anand, Godavari, Happy days, fidaa, leader, love story, life is beautiful they are Telugu movies) all of them are gems. I think you will love them. Andala Rakshasi, Virata Parvam, Needhi Naadhi oka Katha, and Anta sundaraniki directors Vivek Athreya's previous films( Brochevaravaru raa, Mental madhilo) and many more if you like them. You can ask for more recommendations I have suggested only Telugu movies but there are gems in Kannada, Tamil and Malayalam.
I watched it 4 times in the theater and loved it even more after each watch. ❤
No problem, Telugu audience will say this film as underrated in few years🥲😌
It's a beautifully crafted piece of art for sure! ❣️
I loved the movie. The movie grows on you from the moment you start watching. Each character so well written. Beautiful!
A factor to consider here is that, with the massive successes of RRR,KGF 2 and Vikram within months of each other, the audience naturally weren't interested to go to a smaller film. It's like the small drizzle after a storm.
Plus many just didn't have the money to go to the theatres
Then how 777 charlie got huge success and it's still running in Bengaluru and other parts of karnataka theatres still successfully don't give any excuse.because 777 charlie also small budget movie only
The case was different as this wast the last Telugu films in a string of films that released one after other.RRR,Kgf,F3,Major,Vikram and most people lost interest as it was the case with me as I watched all above movies.I coundnt spend more for ante sudaraniki.I think films releasing in August will pick up pace again
I have a strong feeling that it would have a Bollywood remake and would be a hit in Bollywood.
Just an excellent movie 🔥🔥
Finally... The review I've been waiting for, for weeks...
A film that deserves more than what it actually got in theatres
Felt really sad for the appreciation it got while in theatres but boi now people are regretting not watching this classic make my heart very very happy and proud I watched this in theatres
