Plot

Veerayya is a loving and doting father, whose life revolves around his young son Raju. Raju is a brilliant and lovable boy. His biggest dream is to sit in an airplane. However, Veerayya is physically handicapped and extremely poor. He works in the slums of Hyderabad and has no family, except for three friends in the area that he lives in.

One day, Veerayya receives some devastating news. Raju has leukemia, and only has a few days left to live. Veerayya is shaken, but he gathers resolve and becomes determined to fulfil Raju's wish. What follows is a moving tale of love, sacrifice and dedication, all of which can be condensed into one simple phrase: the love of a father.

Analysis

Vimanam is a film that can strike a chord with any kind of audience in the universe, as it operates on a relatable plotline: the love between a father and his son. The film capitalizes on this very aspect, but there are some executional flaws.

Firstly, the film is not very engaging. As it progresses, Veerayya is only bombarded with more and more difficulties, and the narrative just gets positively bleaker. While this does help to gain sympathy for the character, it also means that the audience may lose interest in it after a point. The storyline has bits of humor here and there, but it is not enough to lighten up the overly depressing plot.

Secondly, some plot points were unnecessary, such as the parallel storyline between Koti (Rahul Ramakrishna) and Sumathi (Anasuya Bharadwaj). All it accomplishes is added baggage to the already heavy film.

However, the emotional scenes are bang on. Samuthirakani's acting skills are elevated by the touching writing. The film nails each and every one of these sequences especially in the last part of the film. The scene where Veerayya curses at God, and the one where him and Raju finally board a plane to Tirupati, are sure to bring you to tears.

What's There?

Great writing
Amazing acting

What's Not There?

Unnecessarily added plot points

Verdict

Vimanam is beautiful and touching film. It plays on a story that is relatable to all: the love that father holds for his son, and the lengths he is willing to go for him. It is a masterpiece worth watching.
