For me, the man who redefined love after Mani sir is GVM. If a filmmaker can make a difference in one’s life, there will be GVM in that list. He came to kollywood in 2001 with Minnale and that is the start of something big the industry has ever seen. As all we know love stories are GVM’S cup of coffee. Those classic love scenes, romance, voice overs, strong female characters, music.. A two and half hour magic on screen.
All love stories are special, we agree. But here a few magical things that make GVM's love stories stand out from other ones, make them more special and closer to real life. Have a look & feel the feel:
- Love at first sight:
Love at first sight is not always about beauty. Avathali person mana eye contact ki ela respond avuthunaru, the way they reciprocate, that magical stare is important. I still remember the bgm..
"Poopol Poopol" -Minnale
“Jessie nannu padesindi” -karthik’s voice over
“Ah roju ratri premante ento naku telisndi, amma ni modhatisari chusinapudu meeku ela anipinchindho naku telisindi”. “Amma ninnu minchina andham ledhu anukuna, Ninnu minchina andham kanipinchindi amma” - Surya’s voice over and the guitar bgm offoo!! Ala train lo noo, inti daggaro, Royal Enfield medho vachestaru.
- Travel:
Mana hero lu city nundi country varaku ammayi kosam velladam, asalu prema ki no boundaries ani chupincharu. Karthik, Jessie kosam Allepey velladam, Surya, Meghna kosam United States velladam, Maya kosam Ram out skirts velladam.. Vallu chese thegimpu lo ne boledentha prema ni chupincharu.
- I'm in love with you:
Ammayilani pogadam lo meeku saati leru anukunte dhaniki thodu straightforward ga I love You cheppese abbayilu. Abbayilu ammayi feet ni touch cheyadam, ammayilu "He just swept me off my feet" anadam. Pure magical love it is! Ippatiki love of karthik and Surya is still a dream for many girls.
- Women Proposals:
Peru ki tagattu andharu andhamaina Maya le. Jessie and Nithya .. you almost revealed the usual mentality of girls. Where Maya and Priya ……….. Konni rojulu chudadam, em matladakunda venaki tirigi naduchukuntu vellipodam. Kaani okasari mohamatam pogottukuni, dhairyam techukunte matladam em karma kavithale rasestaru. Vaalu entha simple ga propose chesina edo samudram odduna, challa gaali lo, raagam vintunantha poetic ga untundi. And those epic hand shakes after proposing!! Mannn, you made me realize how beautiful a woman can be!
”Surya I’m in love with you, eppatinuncho neku 17, naku 15 appatinunchi. I don’t even want to react to what I'm saying.. Kaani na manasulo idi undi ani neku teliyali”- Priya
“Premisthunnanu truly, madly, deeply”- Maya
- Love Failure:
Mana real life ne cinema ga chupincharu. Mana andharam GVM ni admire cheyadaniki idhi main reason. Nithya, Varun laga godavalu padatham, Karthik, Jessie laga intlo vala gurinchi alochisthu etu undalo telchukolekapotham, Surya, Meghna laga anukoni paristhuthulu edhuru avthayi. Kaaranalu emaina vidipovadam sadharanam, manaki kavali ani anukuna valu lekapoina, manalni korukune vaalu untaru ani entha baga chupistharo.
- Move on:
“Whatever happens, life has to move on”
“Put your pain into passion, passion turns to you”
That dialogue from Surya S/o Krishnan (Vaaranam-Aayiram) is one of the biggest life advice which a director can give to the audience. That impact after watching a GVM movie is sensational. Badha ni marchipodaniki gym ki veladam, body penchadam not only heroes, abbayilu reject chesaru ani ammayilu edusthu leru. Chala confident ga naku anipinchindi cheppanu ani vala normal life ni live chesthu untaru.
- Marriage:
“Ee podhe naathodu vachei ila.. Oorantha chusela avudham jatha”
“Naa thoti raa inti varaku, naa ille chusi nannu mechu”
“Pelli chesukundham jessie”
“Pelli chesukovali, metho navvuthu matladali, potladali, me vollo vaali edavali, kanisam mugguru pillalni kanali, vaallu melane undali.. I want to make love to you. Cheppina meku ardam kadhu it’s a girl thing”
- Family:
Nanna iche motivation, Amma, Nanna la prema, Inti badyatha, akka ghatu ghatu class lu peekadam ivanni mana intlo jarige sanghatanale.
You have given enough love and hope to a generation. Thank you for making us believe in the magic of love and the power of togetherness. All respect and love to you Gautham sir. Happy Birthday from a fan girl!
