Aryan - Movie Review

Aryan, the most anticipated movie starring Shivaraj Kumar and Ramya is finally in theatres from August 1. The movie is the last project of Late Dr. Rajendra Babu. Chi Gurudutt finished the movie as a tribute to the Late director. The movie will be screened in 230 theatres around the country, with 10 screens in Mumbai alone.

The movie is about life story of Aryan played by Shivaraj Kumar. He joins a sport institute in Singapore as a coach. He recollects his past where he used to train champion athletes. One among them is Shwetha (Ramya). Apart from being his best student, she is also his love interest. But Shwetha gets involved in a doping scandal and is banned from athletics for 2 years. She blames Aryan for this and breaks up with him.

The story take a turn when he finds Shwetha in Singapore and to his surprise Shwetha is married to his boss. Does Aryan manage to reveal the truth about the doping scandal and bring Shwetha back to athletics is the crux of the story.

Shivaraj Kumar and Ramya lack the chemistry needed as a couple. While the story line is very predictable, the acting and the songs are equally disenchanting. The much talked Crowd simulation looks shoddy and poorly done. The comedy in the movie is distasteful and not fit for a family entertainer. Fans of Shivanna will be disappointed.
