Anand

A good start

Having watched &quot;Happy Days&quot; &amp; &quot;Godavari&quot; I was very keen to watch Shekhar Kammula&apos;s first outing &quot;Anand&quot;. Indeed he shows a lot of promise stamping &quot;a director to watch out for&quot;. 

Technically the product is quite superior and no ways to that. The writing, screenplay, background score, music and lyrics are top-notch. The fluidity that is maintained from one frame to another deserves a special mention. 

Keeping in mind the new generation of audience, loads of crumbs are thrown in which I am sure they will instantly connect and relish. &quot;Anand&quot; has immense fresh appeal.

Kamalinee Mukherjee gets a platform of her lifetime. The director effectively manages to capture variety of emotions that you can&apos;t help but simply fall in love with the girl-next-door. 

Raja (as Anand) was slightly below par. I was anticipating Siddharth kind of performance and was slightly disappointed there.

Anuj Gurwara (as Rahul) was good.

Satya Krishnan (as Anita) deserves a special mention. Her character was etched quite well and it was nicely complimented by her performance. 

The second half could have been trimmed but not a worrying factor. Or maybe because I watched the &quot;Directors Cut&quot; I perceived it longer than usual. 

Definitely recommended.

PS: I particularly liked incorporating the scene from Rajesh Khanna&apos;s &quot;Anand&quot; as Mr. Kammula&apos;s ode to the original classic.
