Producer
BP
Thyagaraj's
Kannada
movie
Ullasa
Utsaha,
which
was
ready
for
release
even
before
Golden
star
Ganesh's
movie
Maleyali
Jotheyali
and
was
delayed
for
some
reason,
has
finally
hit
the
screens
across
the
state
today.
It
is
a
remake
of
Telugu
movie
Ullasamga
Utsahamga,
which
had
rocked
the
Tollywood
Box
Office.
Ullasa
Utsaha
is
a
romantic
story.
It
is
a
slapstick
comedy
and
it
has
a
host
of
the
comedy
artistes.
The
main
highlight
of
the
film
is
'Comedy
Time'
Ganesh's
performance.
The
other
plus
points
of
the
movie
are
GV
Prakash
Kumar's
music,
Seetharam's
camerawork,
Devaraj
Palan's
dialogues,
costumes
and
choreography.
The
movie
has
a
thin
storyline,
but
director
Devaraj
Palan
is
successful
in
making
it
very
interesting.
The
story
is
all
about
how
an
irresponsible
young
boy
tries
to
woo
a
girl.
With
his
tight
gripping
narration,
the
director
has
managed
to
engage
the
minds
of
the
audience
and
nowhere
the
movie
bores
the
audience.
The
first
half
of
the
movie
is
full
of
comic
sequences
and
this
comedy
arises
for
the
hero's
attempts
to
impress
the
heroine.
The
story
takes
a
new
twist
with
a
fight
sequence
at
the
end
of
the
first
half.
Even
though
there
are
a
few
comic
sequence
in
the
second
half,
it
is
very
serious
and
emotional.
Especially,
the
climax
is
very
sentimental
and
moves
the
heart
of
the
audience.
Preetham
(Ganesh)
is
a
happy
go
lucky
boy
and
is
the
youngest
son
of
a
garage
owner
(Rangayana
Raghu).
He
is
attracted
by
a
girl
called
Mahalakshmi
(Yami
Gautam),
who
also
stays
in
his
locality.
He
tries
every
possible
way
to
impress
her,
but
she
is
in
love
with
her
childhood
friend
and
considers
Preetham
as
a
nuisance.
Whether
she
will
meet
her
childhood
friend
or
offers
her
heart
to
Preetham
will
form
the
climax
of
the
movie.
Ganesh
rocks
the
show
as
happy-go
lucky
boy.
He
has
shown
lot
of
energy
in
fight
and
dance
sequences.
He
impresses
the
audience
with
his
comedy.
Yami
Gautam
has
also
lot
of
scope
in
the
movie
and
she
has
done
justice
to
her
role.
Rangayana
Raghu,
Sadhu
Kokila,
Tulasi
Shivamani
and
Preethi
Chandrashekar
has
also
lived
up
to
their
respective
roles.
GV
Prakash
Kumar's
music
is
another
highlight
of
the
film.
Almost
all
the
songs
are
interesting
to
listen.
Especially,
the
songs
like
'Chalisuva
Cheluve...,
'Love
Maade
Nanne...
and
'Chakkori
Chakkori...'
will
haunt
the
minds
of
youths
even
after
they
leave
the
theatre.
The
selection
of
costumes
and
locations
for
the
song
sequences
is
wonderful.
Seetharam's
cinematography
is
also
a
plus
point
of
the
movie.
Ullasa
Utsaha
is
a
big
treat
for
Ganesh
fans
and
it
has
all
the
commercial
elements
to
impress
the
mass
audience
too.
But
the
movie
has
few
challenges.
Firstly,
it
is
a
remake
of
Ullasamga
Utsahamga,
which
has
already
been
seen
by
many
Kannada
viewers.
Secondly,
Puneet
starrer
Prithvi,
which
was
released
last
week,
is
making
it
a
big
without
any
publicity.
Finally,
Aaptha
Rakshaka
is
still
running
in
nearly
75
theatres
across
the
state.
Now,
only
time
will
decide
the
future
of
Ullasa
Utsaha.
