Vishnu Vinyasam Review

Vishnu Vinyasam Story

Vishnu (Sree Vishnu) works in a college and is a man who believes in astrology and horoscopes. He falls for his colleague, Manasa (Nayan Sarika), and in no time, she proposes to Vishnu. He approves the relationship after reviewing the horoscopes and numerological factors. But little does Vishnu know that Manasa is after him with a purpose. What is Manasa's plan? How does Vishnu face issues in love? And how does he come to terms with it? That forms the rest of the story.

Vishnu Vinyasam Review

Vishnu Vinyasam has been directed by Maruthi Rao, who pens a story around Sree Vishnu's comedy timing, which is a hit with the youth these days. The film is about a young man who believes in astrology, which lands him in deep trouble with the heroine.

The basic premise is simple, and the conflict point is wafer-thin. In such cases, the drama needs to be strong, but that does not happen here, as the entire focus is on comedy and Sree Vishnu's one-liners.

The entire first half is packed with comedy, and this keeps things going for the audience. But even this comedy becomes repetitive after a while, as the scenes feel forced and the humor turns stale. After a point, one gets the feeling that such comedy scenes have already been executed in many Telugu films earlier.

After a passable first half, the focus shifts to family drama, and this is where the film falters. There is no proper emotion, as the director seems to be in a hurry to wrap up the film. The climax and the twists related to the story are not that great. But what keeps you going is Sree Vishnu's fun avatar. He is very good with comedy and keeps hopes alive with his performance.

The family drama is the weakest link of the film, and there is not much happening in terms of emotional scenes. The crisp runtime is the best aspect, as the film wraps up quickly. But one also feels that better detailing in the second half would have made matters a lot better.

However, the director packs decent comedy in the first half with Satya’s track. He, as Sree Vishnu's sidekick, is superb and evokes good laughs. Brahmaji and Gokaraju Ramana are neat in their roles. After a point, the heroine also does not have much to do in the film.

Nayan Sarika gives a decent performance, and one feels that her character should have been developed better. But she shares crackling chemistry with Sree Vishnu and gives a fresh feel to the film.

Music by Radhan is disappointing, as none of the songs make an impact. The BGM is even more disappointing and loud. The production values are neat, and the dialogues are hilarious, especially those penned for Sree Vishnu. The editing is apt, but the screenplay could have been much better in the second half.

Vishnu Vinyasam is a film solely made for Sree Vishnu and those who love his style of comedy. While the film evokes decent fun, it falters in the second half.

Vishnu Vinyasam Verdict

On the whole, Vishnu Vinyasam is a comedy caper that has its moments. While the comedy clicks, the rest fails. It is one of those films made to cash in on Sree Vishnu's newfound comedy image, but as a film, it is just another ordinary comedy caper.
