Clean movie to watch with family to know about marriage and it's importance but it's more like a serial to watch few characters in the movie are dramatic with fake expressions

The movie is a visual treat with beautiful village scenery and wedding scenes. Director wants to convey a good message - wedding is more than an event with each and every ritual has a meaning. However, that message appears to be forced into scenes than smoothly blending in to the story. Prakash Raj is exceptional but others don't really make an impression in acting. Overall, a good movie to watch with whole family.

The concept of Telugu culture and sentiments which director wants to show is great but the way he took examples to show that is not at all convincing in many scenes. This movie shows the Telugu marriage traditions very beautifully and why our ancestors consider marriage as a festival and not as an event in life. Nithin's acting is not upto mark in climax scenes. Having a bit comedy in between is a plus point of the movie.

Nice family movie. I would have give 2 more stars if at all the actor was not giving unnecessary advices at each point. Can be easily avoided ao that more love and family related scenes can be shown.

This movie is just like pure Gold...

I have seen so many movies but yes others movies are having High VFX, actions,etc but this movie doesn't have all these then also it's a masterpiece.... It is a must watch movies for all... Here goes the reason

1. Pure Indian Culture Marriage. 2. A very Good message for married/unmarried peoples 3.The Dialogues are pretty cool .. 4. This movie is not too lengthy.. 5. It's like Real life as this movie can be turned in real life if everyone tries.. 6. Don't think that any people will hate this movie... 7. A must watch movies for all age group.. I recommend 😍😍.. 8. I Guarantee u won't regret after watching this movie.😍😍 9. Totally Family Movie .

Terribly stupid direction. Mental torture.... how did the actors even agree to such stupid storyline.

It's really nice character what nithin played, movie is full of sentiments .. Such kind of character is very hard now a days but if it exists we felt in love with the person. I was one of the same character for my family, i love watching the movie. Many things really i liked in movie the dialogs, rich character how came down to earth, girl beauty, hero speech so and so.. Keep watching once , i watched in prime with subtitle.

Watched this film few weeks ago and I can't believe this was made in 2018. One of the most boring films I've ever seen. Would have been a perfect film for 90s. Felt like a daily soap opera.

The director has tried to give out a plain feel good movie hoarding with advises, however it feels very cringe and cliche, the plot could easily be anticipated. Additionally, the antagonist character is very poorly designed and the climax changeover of the antagonist isn't really convincing.

Nevertheless, if you don't mind re-reading an advice book that you have already read ample times - use this movie to kill your time.

A beautiful movie very cleanly presented so you can watch with your whole family. Srinivasa Kalyanam helps you remember the value of a marriage and family values. The film does a great job explaining why marriage is not just an event like many people consider it these days. I wish they would make more movies like this. Thank you Dil Raju, Satish, and team for making this movie. Our whole family enjoyed watching it, and we hope more production houses make family-oriented movies that you can watch even with kids.

Awesome movie. Best direction, awesome cinematography. Sprinkled indian culture all over that will astonish everybody. Must watch movie. Had a great time.

Clean family picture with lots of love and affection in family members, Marriage is not an event its a memorable moment to share happiness with everyone

Finally a decent movie that whole family can watch together, really good.

Marriage is a life time memory not an event! Traditional and a very clean movie finally!

Such movies are so important in today's world when everyone is focussed on money rather than relationships

I watched it without any expectation and it really surprised me. How can a writer write such a beautiful story and Director as well as all the member of the film delivered it, which taught us the beautiful tradition which we have, the family value, the love of living together, the Sacrament which we got from our elders, the respect of each other.

But the bad thing is that, this movie is a flop. I don't know how these kind of beautiful moving got flopped.

I truly loved the movie and also recommended many of my friends and everyone have same feelings.

Marriage is an important process of life, its just not an event but a festival which happens once in a lifetime for many of us and this movie depicts the great qualities of marriages and why this one festival should be celebrated as a great one.

Srinivasa Kalyanam is not just a movie, it's an emotion, a sentiment and a thought provoking journey. Challenging the ideas of how the modernist views ideas such as marriage, family and traditions this informative piece of cinema is the right balance of humor and introspection. The family orientated nature of this flick makes it to be an enjoyable experience for both young and old!

Very beautiful picturisation, good potrayed of our Indian culture

Nithiin and Raashi Khanna - starrer Srinivasa Kalyanam begins with a voiceover, rendered by actor Venkatesh, where the importance of marriage is underlined since the time of Lord Rama and Krishna. And thus, we are slowly introduced to the saga of Vasu (Nithiin) and Sri (Raashi Khanna) in the 21st Century, where the importance of a wedding and marriage as an institution has diminished considerably.

Vasu hails from a close-knit joint family and is the kind who likes to call home at the beginning and end of the day to talk to his grandmother and rest of the family. Sri hails from a family that's the polar opposite, consisting of a business minded father (Prakash Raj), who believes the only thing that deserves his time is his work, an elder sister going through divorce because she's exactly like her father and a mother wanting for attention and love.

When the two fall in love and decide to get married, the super-idealistic film makes it clear right from the beginning that the focus will solely be on the importance of wedding ceremonies and traditional family values. A film which explores the theme of an Indian wedding is fertile ground for an emotional outburst or dramatic confrontations between different characters. But Srinivasa Kalyanam bypasses this route completely and instead focuses on traditions and the importance of celebrating a wedding like a beautiful moment in one's life.

Nithiin's role is extremely one-dimensional. He is an architect in Chandigarh but his heart lies in his village. To put in simple words, his characterisation is the embodiment of his Nanamma's beliefs, but trapped in a young man's body. Having grown up in a city, Vasu has no qualms in believing in the regressive age-old traditions.

Vasu's entire family never acknowledges Prakash Raj's work schedule. All they have in their mind is that the girl's family should drop everything they do to take part in pujas or go on that family shopping trip. Vegesna succeeds in only glorifying village life and traditional marriages.

The most appalling scene in the movie is the proposal scene. You look forward to it, but when it actually arrives, it is a massive letdown. Until then, Vasu doesn't acknowledge Sri's love. He sees his name saved as 'My Heart' on Sri's phone and boom, he proposes to her in the next scene! This might be the most pointless proposal scene ever.

Raashi Khanna emotes beautifully throughout the film. But her character is reduced to a woman who just nods her head to everything the groom's family says.

Vidyullekha Raman's characterisation is just another major flaw in the film. She is ridiculed for eating 'so much'. Vidyu is someone who is vocal about body positivity in real life. Seeing her humiliating herself with this role in the film is a major setback.

There are certain romantic moments and family sequences that work to an extent. But it is sad not to see such well-written scenes throughout the film. For example, there is a scene where Prakash Raj realises that money isn't everything. Without taking a preachy route, the scene conveys the message beautifully and convincingly.

Srinivasa Kalyanam, in the second half, looks just like a wedding film. If only it had some amazing twists and turns!

Please do watch this film to know the values of marriage and relationship with family!
