A Perfect RomCom

Warning: Spoilers
Suhas as Krishna and Chandini as Deepthi are perfect roles for this movie and Suneel vilanism is too good and Kala Bhairva's music is biggest plus every actor has given their best in this film . Even it is his first film Sandeep Raj direction is fantastic & fabulous great action by Suhas. We have to bow for his action . good film Great speech by Suhas has a great impact. "Because Engineer's are future"

Yem Cheppamantarandi?
cchaap-7588325 October 2020
What should I tell? Should I complain? Worst love story, worst screenplay, worst direction, worst music & worst worst worst... If someone thinks about the "worst" even in his dreams, he/she are the worst. If you complain about this movie, there's some mental illness in you. I would say, the movie is "Extremely" opposite to the word "Worst".

There are many scenes, I keep streaming them again & again. No doubt, after "Alaa Vaikuntapuramulo", this's an outstanding movie of this pandemic year. This movie has dominated at all the departments. Kudos to the team.

Many people are saying that it would've been good if it had a happy ending, but we can expect happy ending in every story that's the hard reality which the movie ahowcased

Great film making by the team
hnmaheshreddy24 October 2020
Movie was fantabulous. The actors did their part at their best. I heard few saying they lack comedy but for a movie like colour photo with great story, dialogues, music, screenplay. Comedy isn't required. Made me engaged whole time, Never got bored. The climax sequences were "WOW", too emotional but delivered perfectly. A very nice to be watched.

East Man Color Story as Colour Photo
harishmadireddi1 November 2020
The story and the idea of elevating the racism in rural areas around late 90s wasnt a unique story..there have been numerous stories coming our way since east man color times. Finally what i wanted to say is, colour photo isnt a story untold during its time. Just that its retro love story it doesnt necessarily sell. It should have its selling point. And having said that.. it had huge resemblance with Pariyerum Perumal which released in tamil in 2018. Chandini and viva harsha stood out for their performances. Certainly they have rroved that they both has the potential to perform. Suhas has done well but his character arc wasnt consistent, its the flaw in writing i guess, because he had his moments of being confident unlike pretending to be one like in proposal scene. That ending would have been a heartbreaking one in 1999(according to timeline used in movie) but it wasnt the same(for me atleast) and I was in the exact state how deepu reacts to her dads death but at the same time if it doesnt end that way, it would have given the vibe of pariyerum perumal so we had nothing else to take this. But it did address some issues genuinely and didnt tried to polish the bad consequences of love which were prevailing during late 90s. I wish director doesnt get carried away with the appreciations this film gets and correct his flaws in writing for his next. Its not a bad one, its not very good. Give it a try.

Not recommendable!
harelives26 June 2021
It's a dissapointment for me because some friends suggested this as a good Telugu movie to watch. But there was nothing exciting about it for me. It's the same kind of movie with just a different way of telling it. So I continuously expected something miraculous to happen and make my time worthy.

Maybe it's even stupider with skin colour becoming a key role. And even promoting suicide as a solution is not acceptable. So it's not a socially conscious movie at all.

I like the acting, some dialogs and bgm. But it's not a recommendable movie for me.

Ok movie but not great
shrivishwa21 December 2020
If you can survive the first 20 minutes the rest of the movie you can survive through barely. It would be a great movie if it was released on 90s but not now. Suhas & Sunil are the 2 wheels the movie runs on. Instead of Chandni chowdary they should have casted someone else. Overall, its a ok movie to watch when you have nothing else to do.

Emotional& touching movie
ranikaith2 November 2020
I really liked this movie, its different from the telugu movies ive seen before. The underlying topic(colourism) is a really important one, embedded in a romantic love story in the 90s. Especially the main characters were drawn out well& were interesting , except for the brother of the girl( he was potrayed as a narcissistic, mysoginistic and controlling psychopath, but for my taste his character was over the top and his motives quite immature). I also liked the dialogues, they were really thoughtful and deep, and encouraging the viewer to think about them, but at the same time you had really funny punchlines. The cinematography was astonishing ! and the music was fitting perfectly into the film. What i didnt like was the ending because it kind of feels misplaced and maybe encourages the youth to do things, which will harm them, instead of finding better solutions to deal with hardships in life ( by the way the high cigarette consum was also critical). The topic spoken about is important, but it would have been more brave and even groundbreaking, if the woman had been darker and the men fairer, because colourism affects woman much more than men.( but this is a minor aspect ) Otherwise a really touching movie, with amazing perfomances especially from the main character ( its the first movie after a long time, which made me cry) :)

A Colourful Black And White Film
vishalpurushotham23 October 2020
One of the most finest well made and emotional driven film of the year! Or maybe in my lifetime! I'm so moved right now! Actors technicians all did a fantastic job! Director sir, Sandeep Sir! Thank you for your existence into this world! If you wouldn't there, Then, this story wouldn't have been made! And I wouldn't have been felt this feeling what I'm feeling right now! Thank you so much!! In the end, I want to conclude by saying, 'Colour Photo is A Colourful Black and White Film'

Movie explains why we need Black Lives Matter in India as well
deepak_on_air19 November 2020
This is a pretty depressing movie. One could see this movie to understand how dark skinned people are discriminated in India. The movie explains why we need Black Lives Matter in India as well

Ok
nikhil-3117923 October 2020
Suhas and chandini performance is ok Sunil from first shot he did good until some point of time later in second part he missed track that completely director mistake he should check that . Production values are very cheap Songs are ok only trailer BGM is good. Idea is good but when is developed into story is ok Screenplay and direction lost track good choice to release in ott Dialogues are v good Sri Vidya ,Divya did good performance.

Vibrant and Painful
naveensankaran187 November 2020
It was 2016, when I came across a Marathi movie #Sairat. It was a roller-coaster ride filled with emotions throughout its runtime. The impact of caste and class on the love world, left me perplexed. It impacted me on a level that I never imagined.

Colour Photo had similar impact in me; the movie made me laugh and smile, as much as it made me cry! Though both the movies deal with love affair amidst caste issues, they are true to their own background. That's what make it special.

#Suhas as Jayakrishna carries the movie on his shoulders, with his non-dramatic portrayal of a young college lad. After an impressive performance in #UmaMaheswaraUgraRoopasaya, he stamped his presence in this movie as well. It will be curious to see him portray a variety of roles in future.

Though the screenplay had enough space for puns from our Bala yesu (Child Christ!), the supporting characters could've been backed up by better performances. There were situations where the plot was about to change directions, but the screenplay tried its best to get it back on track.

The editing pattern caught my attention throughout, using windows to convey the emotions of the contrasting worlds of the lead. Combined with the background score, they helped us in getting glued to our screens without much hassle.

The YouTube gang of #ChaiBiscuit getting on to make a mark on the big screen, is a massive step ahead in Telugu Cinema. I hope many young talents can follow their suit up the ladder. As said by Hriday Ranjan of Film Companion South, these people really developed the negatives of their industry into a beautiful colour photo!

Overall, the Colour Photo movie is definitely a welcome move for the Telugu Cinema industry and I hope it will be appreciated by everyone alike. It is a worthy watch.!

Heart touching movie
mohanprashanth24 October 2020
What a film. Last 20 mins of the film changed entire opinion on it. Climax of the film gonna make u cry if u really connected. Brilliant performances by suhas and other lead cast. Excellent bgm by kaala bhairava. Sandeep raaj did a great job irrespective of debut film.
