Single is the latest romantic comedy starring Sree Vishnu in the lead role. The film, directed by Caarthick Raju and backed by Allu Aravind’s Geetha Arts, received a decent response for its fun moments along with a few controversies. Let us find out what output does the team deliver in our Single movie review.
Story:
Vijay (Sree Vishnu) strives to escape his single life. It tells his love story with Purva and Harini along with what experiences does he has with both women.
Performances:
Sree Vishnu impresses with his laid-back humor and unique delivery. As the female lead, Ketika Sharma delivers an ordinary performance because of her forgettable character. Ivana makes her presence felt with nice attire and lively expressions. Vennela Kishore effectively plays a full-length sidekick role and brings the required fun in. VTV Ganesh has a few funny scenes, and that’s all. Senior actor Rajendra Prasad’s talent goes underutilized in a small part, and Comedian Sathya gives a blink and miss appearance. Narne Nithiin features in one scene but goes unnoticed.
Analysis:
Caarthick Raju directs Single, focusing on a straightforward, entertaining concept. The director creates a fun atmosphere and offers good comedic moments in the first half. The hero’s experiences with two heroines in similar circumstances seem captivating. While the scenes feel partially familiar, the director effectively showcases the lead’s awkward moments and small conflicts, keeping the first half interesting.The second half begins with fun but shifts to emotion, failing to resonate and causing the film to falter. The flashback part with Rajendra Prasad feels old and contrived. The climax that should have added fun looks nonsensical. However, the performances and chemistry of Sree Vishnu – Vennela Kishore make the proceedings engaging.
Positives:
- Sree Vishnu and Vennela Kishore Performance
- Interval Episode
- Few Creative Ideas (Like Movies and Memes References)
Negatives:
- Weak Second Half
- Forced Emotions in the Flashback
- Climax
Single Movie Review and Verdict:
Single is a time – pass entertainer. Sree Vishnu delivers a convincing performance alongside Vennela Kishore, creating fun moments and make the film appealing; though the second half lacks humor, and the ending falls flat.
