KEKA is a love story based film which attracts the youngsters to large extent. It is not like his previous hit films which zoomed up at the box office. Most importantly Keka has some impeccable screenplay and cinematography which will make the audience glued to their seats. By producing this film with all the new comers in the lead, Teja has once again proved his motto to bring new life into the Telugu film industry. Since, Keka attracts the youth; it can be tagged with an average film with some vulgarity in the movie.

Story :

Arjun (Raja) is a care free guy who is seen enjoying with his friends in his native town. The regular tangy tastes of a village are well portrayed in each frames of the film. Sujatha (Ishaani) incidentally meets the hero Arjun and soon Arjun falls in love. Sujata reciprocates the same, but hides it from the hero. But very soon she falls in deep love with the hero. Then Sujata goes to the city (Hyderabad) and following her Arjun lands up in Hyderabad. He finds out many ways to find out his love and soon discovers that she is a student of a college. He is delighted and rushes to college, but unfortunately Sujatha has signed off from there and the Hero learns that she has taken TC to join another college.

Then after a little bit of reel loading, Sujatha is found studying in the same college where Arjun is pursuing his studies. Sujatha’s parents wontedly make the heroine join the college in order to love another person named Kiran. Kiran is the person with which Sujatha is engaged and in order to make the pair understand each other their parents make Sujatha study in the same college of Kiran

But Kiran is a good friend of Arjun and Arjun comes to know all about the truth and gathers his strength to reveal his love to Kiran. Arjun’s friends force him to reveal his love towards Sujatha to Kiran and finally the hero tells the truth to Kiran.

To the surprise of all, Kiran whole heartedly accepts Sujatha and Arjun loves and sacrifices his love. Until the truth came into light, Kiran was also in love with Sujatha, but when Arjun tells him the truth that Sujatha loves Him, Kiran decides to back off.

All is happy until the climax. But as usually the suspense and the thrill emerge out in the last scenes. Is Kiran hero or a villain will make the audience enthralling for sometime?

And this is the suspense in Keka which has to be watched on the big screen.

Performances

Raja who plays the hero Arjun’s Character in this film lives up to the director’s expectations and gives his 100% to the film. His innocent looks and dialogue delivery look apt, but still he has to improve a lot. Well known Lyric writer Sirivenella Sitarama Shastry is his father and so he may live in the industry with this background for sometime.

Ishaani is slim and sexy, but her face lacks the eye catching luster. But, hold on she is in her teens now and has a long way to go in the film industry. As usual she is open to show her skin on screen and so she is a glam doll from her debut. Actress Rassi has dubbed for her hoarse voice and her dancing and expressions skills are awesome. Her dialogue delivery is also up to the mark.

Anup Kumar who is the second hero in this film has well played his character. His friendly character transformation into a villain is appreciable and is done with an ease.

Comedy is not so hilarious, but some adult comedy brings some laughter in this film. Music by Chakri is average and only one song is a little bit catchy. The rest of the music is passable.

Teja who is well known as a churner of very little stories gives some life to the story of Keka in the first half. But like his previous hits Jayam and Nuvvu Nenu, the story lacks the grace in the end and some audience may feel that it is enough and its time to go.

He digs out the mass element with some characters and it may make the story little bit fair.

On the whole, though the movie KEKA is aimed at the youth, it may just live up to 50 day run maximum.
