Vamshi - Destiny's Child

Power Star Puneeth surely deserved to prove himself after a series of disappointing movies this year. Vamshi - Destiny's Child comes in as a power packed commercial entertainer. Of course with the production house reputation at stake as well and director Prakash having to live upto the success of Milana, Vaamshi was the best sandalwood lovers could expect coming towards the end of this year.

The narration of the film has been designed to follow a 'classic approach'. Trying to portray the emotions of a rowdy son who wants to make an impact with the society by trying to become a responsible cop is the main glimpse of the script. Along with the always successful mother son relationship coming into play it gives a clean mix of action and sentiment with a small dose of comedy in bits and pieces.

Puneeth lives up to his power star image. Stunts, actions dwell in abundance. Maybe he could improve on his keeping the heroism image controlled and concentrate more on performance. New entrant into sandalwood Nikita (though a known face in the neighboring industry) has little scope but does justice to her role. But no prizes for guessing the winner. Its Lakshmi the old war horse who just doesn’t show any deterioration in her acting skills. Kudos to her for giving so much life into the mother role enacted by her. Komal tries hard to tickle your stomach. But the comedy is below average and just seems like they had added it to increase the runtime. Ravi Kale yet again is riveting. Dialog delivery is the key.

RP Patnaik comes up with yet another melody album. Bhuvanam sung by Soham Chakravarthy sets off the film to a healthy start. JOthe Jotheyali sung by Puneeth himself is already a hot favorite in all the FM stations and not to forget the Sonu Nigam song Yenaito which gives the thump during the second half. Another thing to note on the album is a Rajkumar song re-user to emphasize the mother sentiment. Thayi Thayi song - credits to Hams.

Vamshi may just be the movie which might seem like a change of image movie for Puneeth who was only seen in simple jolly easy going love stories all these years. Will this be an impact on his future movies as well only time can tell.. Though Vamshi was stated as a remake of a popular tamil flick i must say it had some serious changes in the script. No point cribbing or pin pointing fingers but surely there is no deny most scripts nowadays are inspired ones.

This should give you guys enough entu to watch the movie.
