Siddharth has been trying to find another big blockbuster success at the box office. His previous movie Chittha/Chinna became a blockbuster and he wanted his next films to continue as well. He came up with another romantic drama, Miss You, with Ashika Ranganath in leading lady role. The movie released on 13th December in Tamil and Telugu languages. Let's discuss about the film in detail.
Plot:
Vasu (Siddharth), an aspiring filmmaker, grapples with achieving his dream while opposing those who flout the law. At a wedding, he encounters Subbalakshmi (Ashika), his father's angel, and mistakenly views her as a hot-headed and conflicted soul. Due to family pressures, Vasu and Subbalakshmi find themselves in a reluctant marriage.
As the saying goes, "opposites attract," but in their case, the differences push them apart. Their relationship teeters on the edge of collapse after a devastating incident. What transpired between them? What was this terrible incident? Will fate bring them together again? These are the questions that weave through the heart of the Miss You storyline.
Analysis:
Movie starts out with a sequence that tries to increase our curiosity but the writing doesn't really let us show much interest. The movie keeps treading into very predictable waters except for the interval twist. Even that twist doesn't really push the story into interesting narrative. The writing just keeps running like a voice over narration rather than a story between characters. Even in non-linear screenplay, you need characters behaving like them and an interaction being built amongst them. So that we can understand their personality, problems and mental issues that let us connect with them.
The writing looks too generic and uninteresting. We feel like we have been asked to run down a stream of water without any protective gear or an option for rescue. You keep flowing through without any clarity about why and where. Finally, you reach some destination but by that time, you're least bothered about travel but just interested in walking away from it. Such is Miss You experience.
Performances wise Siddharth is good in parts. While he is always a trustworthy performer, he needs good writing to support his focus. Otherwise, it just feels like he is on his own path and film is on its own. Some scenes does have merit and many scenes doesn't. The comedy that could have worked on paper needed few more drafts to improve and much more innovation to let this narrative be more pragmatic. It is neither here nor there with love story never really taking off from any point of view. There is a necessity for both the leads to help us understand their point of views. But that goes missing.
Ashika Ranganath is good but rest all are wasted. Music couldn't elevate the film and cinematography is good enough. Director's idea to present a love story in reverse and examine the unsaid love between a forced couple is nice on paper. But the narrative needed to more concentrated on them even in comic way. It neither concentrates on comedy nor on romance. We are always left wondering who will feed us the coffee to understand the entire unnecessarily mystified tale.
In Conclusion:
Miss You is easy to miss!
