Teja's KEKA (2008) Review by Great Andhra : Ridiculous and Senseless

Film: Keka
Banner: Chitram Movies
Rating: 1/5
Cast: Raja, Anup Kumar, Ishana, Dharmavarapu, Duvvasi Mohan etc
Editor: Shankar
Music: Chakry
Lyrics: Sirivennela, Veturi, Chandrabose
Cinematography: PC Sri Ram
Producer and Director: Teja
Released On: 23rd Oct 2008


The movie 'Keka' was churned a lot in publicity and it is true that this film has undergone big promotion than any other movie in recent times. But how far it tuned with the expectations? Let us go into details.

Story:

The movie begins on the backdrop of Kolkata and a home for the street children. Arjun (Raja) tries to teach music to the children and he is originally from Hyderabad. Apparently, he is staying away from the city for a reason and that reason is Sujata (Ishaani) his love. She is engaged to Kiran (Anup) who is the best friend of Arjun and so he does not want to be a cause for a disturbance in their life. An incident takes place between Arjun and Sujata and from then on she starts hating him. Who is responsible for the incident? Will Arjun ever get to see Sujata? How does Kiran help amidst the sorrow and separation? All this forms the rest of the story.


Performances:

New heroine Ishana's screen presence is impressive and she seems to be holding good future as glamorous heroine. Raasi dubbed for Ishana in this film.

Seeta Rama Sastry's son Raja is ok and he needs to upgrade in body language and expressions. Navadeep's dubbing worked well for him.

Anup's performance is ok and Ajay's dubbing suited well.


Music by Chakry and lyrics by Veturi, Seeta Rama Sastry and Chandrabose are impressive.

PC Sri Ram's cinematography is hyped in big way but it appeared quite mundane.

Teja deserves all sorts of criticism and it is true that he lost his grip on audiences that he used to have earlier.


Analysis:

Ridiculous narration forms the major part of the film. The much hyped film has ended up as a dud. It's receiving the curse of audiences and that's evident at the end of first day-first show. The talented Teja has made a senseless movie with no effectiveness is any aspect of his job.


The only plus point in the movie is music and lyrics and even that got clouded in the camouflage of shabby screenplay and scruffy dialogues. The movie tests the patience from starting till end. The much publicized PC Sri Ram's cinematography also deserves nothing great to mention. It appeared just as run of the mill. The special affects used in the movie are quite normal with present day standards.


Teja confused the audiences by incorporating 'orphan children concept' in plain love story. He struggled a lot to justify the mix, but failed openly. First half tests the patience while second half brings 'crack' in the heads of audiences.

Audiences have entered the theaters with enthusiasm and expectations and came out with dull blank faces. That implies the status and result of the movie.

ISHANI is the name of Teja's KEKA Heroine

Ishani and Raja - Keka's Heroine and Hero Photos

KEKA which is the movie in the making is said to release on October 23rd.The film is on the basis of the life story of street children and the total story will be narrated from last to first. I.e. in an innovative way the story’s climax will be seen first and then the beginning in the last.

Raja is the hero in this film and is new to the film industry. He is tall, well built and also his acting skills are also above average. While the teenage beauty who is playing the female lead in this film has been named as Ishani by the director Teja.
Ishani was born with a dosha in her horoscope and so the Vedic astrologers advised her parents not to name her till she attains puberty.

Recently, Director Teja and his assistants researched a bunch of latest names and then zeroed on the name Ishani after consulting with the astrologers.

So, from now on the nameless heroine in the film industry will be called as Ishani and it is reported that she is playing the role of an orphan girl.

Teja's Keka On Oct 16th

Keka which is the next project of Director Teja is going to hit the theaters on 16th this month. As earlier declared the date has been changed from October 9th to 16th on director request. The post production work is still going on and the movie DTS mixing is still in progress.

Coming to the actors and actress part, the suspense element of this movie is making the people curious. Already Teja’s movies are tagged as those which have mass and class elements. Teja always grooms and gives a chance to new comers. In his film Keka the actor and actress are new to the industry. Well the actress is a young girl who has just entered her teens and the hero is a student in graduation. Further, more details are kept as suspense by Teja.

Let’s see if his suspense pays him off!

Teja's Keka Photo Stills

Dynamic director Teja who has been working his heart out to make a successful comeback is all set to arrive with his new movie that has been titled 'Keka'. Interestingly, there is a special highlight about the girl who is doing the role of the leading lady in the film.

It is heard that this pretty one does not have a name as her parents have not given her one and added to the surprise is the news that Teja has come up with a steamy and hot bathroom scene of the pretty girl in the film which has already raked in a lot of curiosity among the film circles. The girl has no inhibitions in exposing and she is doing whatever Teja orders for. The girl is hot and sexier and at the same time sensual too.

The film is marking the debut of a new lad and the combination of him with this unnamed girl is said to be really throwing sparks on the screen. It now appears that Teja is just inches away from proving his mettle and silence all those critics who have doubted his caliber.
