After owning a restaurant he is happy in life. When he sees Anu (Archana) he feels very happy. Anu also responds to his love because of the humanity in Chetan. When everything is good, the elders decide this match is not right. Anu’s father Ramesh Bhat is brainwashed for getting a boy of his status in the society.
Anu in the later reels agrees for the request of his father who is everything to her in life. She marries the choice of her father and ends her life. Chetan is dumbstruck with this development. He jumps with Anu to the river and dies. That is the end of ‘Preethiya Loka’.
Real life conductor Nandan Prabhu for the screen has not driven the film properly. Nandan Prabhu was driver and now a conductor in Bangalore Transport Service. He needed to fine tune his script. The requirement of some wild moments from him as an actor is missing.
Nandan Prabhu looks in the long shot look like Upendra, super star of Kannada cinema. He should have made use of this strength in him. He has not performed as a proper villain. More fire added to this particular role would have brought some strength to the film.
Secondly the newcomer Vinay role is not properly groomed. There are good dialogues for him but practice on his expressions and some hair cut was needed. Thirdly the second heroine of this film Lakshmi who comes to Chat center of protagonist looks much better than the heroine. Some scope for this role and changes in the script for ‘Preetniya Loka’ was needed.
The stunner was possible from the limited characters Nandan Prabhu has thought. Where is the content he said that he picked from daily routine route in the Bangalore Metropolitan Transport Corporation? The elder characters in the film moves in their cars and protagonist father in the flash back there is a bus reference and in the beginning when children are waiting for bus the young Chetan stops the bus standing in the center of the road.
The most important factor which director Nandan Prabhu described in the media meets is that he is inspired from Rajanikanth, Tamil Super star who was once Bus Conductor in Bangalore. For the inspiration from a great actor and human being like Rajanikanth, there is no reference in this film. Nandan Prabhu has in fact in the advertisements and in front of the Kapali theatre has misused the legendary Tamil super star Rajanikanth.
‘Preethiya Loka’ is more than three years old cinema coming now to the theatres. The director checking the audience expectations was needed. More the surprises the film fills it is a plus point for the film.
Making the film a tragedy was also not necessary because the heroine who shows such a daring nature to love Chetan is also very close to her father in the house. In one of the dialogues she says her father is aware of her love affair. These days the girls are very fast and they come out with straightforward nature.
In the debut film Vinay who is an engineering graduate has struggled hard. He needs to trim his hair and looks should be altered by practicing before a mirror. The long shot heroine is Archana. She has performed well in an emotional scene in the house of Chetan. Lakshmi a television actress looks very sweet and she is a heroine material indeed.
Ramesh Bhat is convincing as supporting actor. Nandan Prabhu has the strength but he has not used it properly.In the comedy department Kuri Pratap and another fatso have done well to tickle the funny bones.
The cinematography is average. There are no memorable shots from Krishna Sarathy. He has not disturbed the film in any place. Two songs from Saikiran are melodious. Baanalli Telidha Swarga….and Yee Priti Bandakshana Tanuvalla Romanchana…..are well captured in the camera. Editing and background score is less than average.
Last but not the Least – For product on hand preparation is very important!
