Husharu is one film which has been promoted a lot in the past few days. The youthful drama has finally hit the screens today and let’s see how it is.
The story is quite simple and is based on the lives of four close friends who enjoy life without any goal. After a point of time, a heartbreaking incident happens in one of their friend’s life and this changes everything upside down. What is that incident? How did it change their lives? and how did the rest of the friend’s handle this critical situation? That forms the rest of the story?
Plus Points :
The fun factor is decent and has been executed well at regular intervals. Most of it is about girlfriends and this features a lot of double meaning dialogues and romance which will only attract the youth.
The performances of the lead cast were decent enough. Tejus is neat in his role and leads from the front. The guy who did the role of Bunty is pretty good as he generates decent comedy with his fun character.
Daksha Nagarkar looks natural and is very good in her role. Rahul Ramakrishna evokes decent laughs in his role of a frustrated software engineer. The bondage between the four friends has been showcased well.
Minus Points :
The story of the film is quite old and has nothing new to showcase. You exactly know what is going to happen next after every scene in the film.
Even though Rahul’s role generates comedy, his character has been dragged in the second half with unnecessary scenes and cheesy double meaning comedy which makes you look at the exit door.
As one of the friend’s suffers from serious problems, the makers add certain comedy scenes which look a bit odd in such a situation. The climax is routine and does not create much interest as things end on a very simple and happy note all of a sudden.
Technical Aspects :
Production values of the film are decent as the youthful atmosphere has been captured in a good manner. Music is below par except for Sid Sriram’s song and so was the background score. Dialogues have been written with a lot of wit. Editing is decent and so was the production design.
Coming to the director Sri Harsha, he has only concentrated on the fun part and left the emotions and drama completely. He falters with his narration in the second part and could have elevated the family drama even more. But he missed on it and made the ending pale and routine.
On the whole, Husharu is a routine youthful drama which has a few likable moments. The story of the film is quite old and has no novelty. Emotions wise, the film falters many a time but as it has some comedy which is strictly targeted at the youth, they can give this film a shot and the family audience can easily avoid the film this week.

Husharu - movie review.
‘Husharu', telling the story of four Engineering graduates, hit the cinemas this Friday. Let's find out its story and what works and what doesn't.
The lead male characters in the film are played by Tejus Kancherla, Tej Kurapati, Abhinav Medishetti, and Dinesh Tej. They have been 'jigri dosts' (best friends) of the highest order since school days. They can't live without each other and can even break up with the girlfriend for the sake of their friendship.
Soon after their academics, the friends go about their semi-adventurous lives. But all their plans are ruined when the love lives of two of the friends fall flat due to some self-inflicted wounds.
To make the matters worse, one of the friends faces a gigantic problem. What is it? How are the friends going to take on it head on? Answers to these questions are found in the second half.
Director Sree Harsha Konuganti wanted to make an adult comedy with some standard elements that appeal to the Indian audience. In the process, he ends up with a lengthy show reel of run of the mill elements. And whatever adult comedy is there, the scenes keep making a guest appearance now and then. A soft porn short film here, a double meaning joke there.
The four friends are good for nothing when it comes to academics. They don't have any interest in a regular software job. They ridicule the guys who work for peanuts after passing out of Engineering with high percentages. How are they going to make a living with this mindset? Don't worry. Our filmmakers always have a ready-made solution in such films. The friends have a business idea, a unique talent (like playing an instrument in a mesmerizing manner), etc.
In 'Husharu', the director goes a step further. He invents a fairly rich software engineer (Rahul Ramakrishna enters the screen too late, but he entertains for the time he is there). This character wants to break free from his software job and has a special talent. This special talent is what exactly the four friends need to survive, thrive and become rich. And he is ready to shower his fortunes on those who show him a way.
The four friends are lucky most of the times with some minor exceptions. Even when they have a huge problem to deal with, they have a solution waiting to save them. They laugh at the problem and the problem runs away. Stuff of fantasies but this film was not supposed to be a fantasy, right?
Daksha comes, Priya Vadlamani comes, and one more girl comes. If a girl breaks a guy's heart, another girl is ready to give him succor.
The bromance looks forced after a point. It lacks soul because the director's attempt to showcase a 'Happy Days', a '3 Idiots' and a 'Life Is Beautiful' lacks punch (the last of these films was a miserable experience, anyways). The actors are too average to entertain like Sekhar Kammula's heroes. The situations are too routine to seem inventive like those we have seen in some new-age films like 'Pelli Choopulu'.
The second half lacks kick, with episodes being stretched as if there is no tomorrow. The characters don't show pain, so does the background music (by Radhan and Sunny MR), which is too generic. Raj Thota's cinematography is inconsistent, much like the performances of the actors. Rahul Ramakrishna scores marks with his terrific comic timing. The scene where his unfair boss pretends to misread his words is a laugh riot.
Bottomline: ‘Husharu' would have been better had the screenplay been tighter and had the jokes are genuinely good. Too much of wishful thinking and easy things bore the audience.
