Adivi
Sesh
debuted
in
Tollywood
with
the
movie
Karma:
Do
You
Believe?
for
which
he
has
worked
as
an
actor,
director
and
scriptwriter.
Later,
he
has
played
supporting
roles
in
the
movies
like
Panjaa
and
Balupu.
Now,
he
has
handled
the
jobs
of
acting,
directing
and
writing
for
his
latest
outing
Kiss
(Keep
it
Simple
Stupid),
which
fails
to
impress
the
viewers
due
to
its
weak
screenplay
and
bad
editing.
Kiss
is
a
romantic
comedy
entertainer
with
a
few
mass
masala
elements.
Lead
actors'
performances
are
the
main
highlight
in
the
film.
Beautiful
picturisation,
good
music
and
background
score
and
a
few
comedy
scenes
are
other
attractions
of
the
movie.
But
its
dragging
narration
is
one
big
drawback
of
the
flick.
The
multi-tasking
Adivi
Sesh
has
selected
a
unique
story,
which
is
about
two
strangers
from
San
Francisco
coming
together.
The
entire
story
transpires
in
24
hours.
The
major
portion
of
the
film
has
been
shot
in
the
US,
which
is
its
USP.
But
the
badly-written
screenplay
leads
to
the
slow
narration
throughout
the
movie.
Priya
(Priya
Bannerjee)
is
a
Telugu
girl
who
is
staying
with
her
conservative
father
in
San
Francisco.
She
runs
away
from
home,
when
her
dad
plans
to
get
her
married
to
Ravi
(Bharat
Reddy).
While
she
is
trying
to
commit
suicide,
a
jovial
guy
named
Sunny
(Adivi
Sesh)
saves
her
and
convinces
her
to
enjoy
life.
Then
they
together
set
out
to
explore
San
Francisco.
What
happens
next
will
form
the
crux
of
the
story.

Adivi
Sesh's
Performance
In
Kiss
As
an
actor,
Adivi
Sesh
has
done
good
job
and
he
has
delivered
brilliant
performance.
He
looks
very
smart
and
jovial.
He
seems
at
complete
ease
in
all
kinds
of
scenes
like
romance,
comedy,
etc.
As
a
director,
he
has
failed
to
prepare
a
convincing
screenplay.
Priya's
Performance
In
Kiss
Priya
Bannerjee
is
also
cute
and
bubbly.
She
has
got
a
good
scope
for
her
role
and
has
tried
to
do
justice
to
it.
She
impresses
the
viewers
with
her
glamour.
Her
chemistry
with
Adivi
Sesh
is
also
good
to
watch
on
screen.
Bharat
Reddy,
Shafi
and
others
have
also
done
justice
to
their
respective
roles.
Kiss
Production
Values
Kiss
has
good
production
values.
Sricharan
Pakala
and
Pete
Wonder's
music
and
background
score
are
among
the
main
attractions.
The
picturisation
is
another
big
strength
of
the
film.
The
cinematographer
has
nicely
captured
the
beautiful
San
Francisco.
Other
technical
departments
have
also
done
a
commendable
job.
But
the
editing
is
very
bad
and
the
editor
should
have
trimmed
many
scene
to
make
them
crispy.
Kiss
Verdict
Overall,
Kiss
is
an
average
romantic
comedy
entertainer.
A
good
screenplay
or
editing
would
have
made
it
better
watch.
It
can
be
watched
once.
