Dasara(2023) movie review

Dasara (2023) 
Telugu on Netflix 

Rating 8/10 😇😁




This is a story that shows God helps those who help themselves. Its a story where  action takes victory over crippling sense of fear and propels even the weaker ones against overpowering odds to win. 

This movie can be impeding to some people due to much of gore and violence - for which it has an A rating - which made it all the more   realistic and raw. Loved Nani and Keerthy Suresh in every frame they appeared in. Some actors chase after commercial and glamorous roles .. but these two have chosen this film to push themselves and give themselves the test of passionate acting. They will go far and hope they both bag many many awards for this movie. 

Coming to the story .. The movie is shot in the singareni coal mines of Telangana. Vennela(Keerthy Suresh) and Suri(Deekshith Shetty) love each other from their childhood. They get married and Suri gets killed on the night of their wedding. This is a ploy by a local politician who has lusty designs for Vennela. Dharani (Nani) who is their mutual friend and has also loved Vennela since childhood learns this and marries her to save her. How he wins over the politician and ruthlessness of his mad desire is the rest of the story. 🥳

 The movie starts slow and picks up pace and footing as it goes. Thinking about it .. there is also a certain resignation to fate and fatedness to the story. I have a tendency to be fixated on the future and be fearful of what might happen a lot of the time. This movie has shown me to be rooted to the present and enjoy it while one can because no one knows how wonderfully events can twist themselves. Keerthy suresh got a chance to act in a proper role after Mahanati after a long time. A must watch for all action loving audience.  😀

The Thorn Birds by Colleen McCullough book review

The Thorn Birds  By Colleen McCullough  Rating 3.75/5 Genres : Australia, Vatican city, Cardinal, Romance, Generational fiction, Historical fiction  Bah. I dont know. I felt this is just an ok sort of book. The only aspect that stirred me and struck a chord with me is the all encompassing, soul level love between Maggie and Father Ralph de Bricassart. Everything else - no matter how juicy,emotional or dramatic just failed to make an impact. The story covers the lives of three generations of women of the Cleary/Armstrong family line - their cherished dreams and dashed hopes, their hurts and heartbreaks over unrequited, failed loves..their finally getting what they wanted but it not being fully enough.. well, it sounds and feels like a roller coaster.  And whats more..there is plenty of repeat in the events of their lives..what has happened to the mother, happens to the daughter and so on..  Coming to the story. Maggie Cleary is brought up with a bunch of brothers in a very p

Valley of the Dolls by Jacqueline Susan

Valley of the Dolls (1966)       by Jacqueline Susann 510 pages (Kindle Digital Edition) Genres : Historical Fiction,  Romance, Philosophical, Psychological Fiction  Rating : 5/5 🥰🥰🥰 One of the best books I have ever read. :) Eerie, omnious and potent with nerve wracking energy. Cannot delineate this story into one subject - this is a concoction dealing with elements of love, romance, betrayal, loss, disillusionment, mental illness, mystery, cancer and deeply engaging,amazing writing talent of Susann.   It kept me hooked through out as I traveled in the shoes of three women who bond during their struggling years for fame and success and break apart once they have reached their pinnacles of success!  This story exposed the vacancy and the void felt even by the most coveted and successful people. The journey to the top is always a lonely journey and even more so when one reaches the spot.   The three women main characters - Anne, Neely, Jennifer -  have got what it takes t
