Allay (Munja Mar Wara)
Love Story is not a film without its flaws though. In an otherwise realistic film, Uttej’s character makes a plan so outlandish to help the couple it almost makes you laugh out loud. But then again, it makes it clear that such drastic measures are needed. The climax too gives in to help Revanth get his heroic moment, even if for a few minutes. Some might even complain that the film ‘drags’ at places, with some scenes placed to drive home a point that has already been noted. Others will say there’s nothing novel at the heart of the story of two individuals trying to convince their families of their love. And as well as Kammula lays out the plot points for the big reveal about Mouni’s past through the film, it makes you wonder if it was hurried through a little. The ending is also rushed through. But he does deserve kudos for handling both caste disparity and child sexual abuse with sensitivity and not using them as just plot points to drive the story forward. These issues are woven into the very being of his lead characters instead.
