Excuse Me film review
Director
Prem has created a new wave in Kannada film industry
through his debut film Kariya. His approach has been different
from the rest in its own way. So is his second film Excuse
Me. Why does love exist? is the basic question. Director
Prem answers in his way - god has created life on earth and
gave each a specific characteristics, merits and behaviors.
But didn't do the same with love! Human beings are fighting
for love from ages and will continue fighting for it… this
is the base for film Excuse Me.
Made by youngsters (from director to artists) for youngsters,
Excuse Me has loads of lingo of today's college boys - from
'Davvu', Sketch, Biscuit, Hoge Haku, Meter… and so on! (Note
that each of these words has its own meaning in Tapori world!)
Excuse
Me is not really a triangular love story. Sunil (Sunil Rao)
and Ajay
(Ajay)
are two friends. Ajay is a talented musician and singer while
Sunil is a flirt with a mentality of get anything that he
likes - by hook or crook. This behavior of his throws him
off to his uncle's place in a town for study where he meets
Madhu (Ramya). Ajay, son of a widow too is sent there to nurture
his music skills. Madhu, a music lover falls in love with
a tune but does not know who played that (like Hindi film
Saajan?). Through this mistaken identity, she thinks its Sunil
who played that tune. Sunil does everything that is needed
to make the false look real and avoid the meeting of Ajay
and Madhu. But for how long?
'True
love never dies' is an age old formula but Prem keeps it tight
till the end. Usage of 'Tapori' lingo thrills the frontbenchers.
A six year old boy talking like an adult using such language
is a little too much of an exaggeration. Moreover, any decent
middleclass family wont let their children talk like that.
Prem introduced new weapons like pen, helmet and whats more,
even silencer pipe of bike to fight! Though Sunil as a collusive
lover is convincing, is not a perfect match for such roles.
Ajay shines in his debut as a dreaming boy. Ramya looks cute.
Lyrics by Nagendra Prasad and music by R.P. Patnayak are good.
Overall, is a good entertainer with a message - 'Love never
dies but lover may'!
