with the headline : review / film : diggstown ; a duel of cynics , with wits and fists .
even without benefit of hindsight , duel looks like the work of an unusually talented young director .

duel is great , the tension and cinematography was incredible and i loved it .
although most of it was filmed in thailand and despite its flashy production and groundbreaking ideas , “duel of fists” is probably one of chang cheh’s most halfassed attempts in the early 1970s . it’s hard to believe that this is the same guy and literally the same stars that did the rock solid “vengeance” and “anonymous heroes . ” not that “duel of fists” is a bad movie , but considering its brutal themes , it could have been better .
popular shaw brothers babes ti lung and david chiang star in yet another chang cheh film about fraternal love , duel of fists . this came runner up to the big boss in the 1971 hong kong box office , but it’s much better .
duel of fists is similar to the anonymous heroes in that it’s ultimately a minor chang cheh film , but that doesn’t stop it from being highly entertaining and interesting in its own right . despite having a similar title to the duel , the story in duel of fists is much more straightforward . but where duel of fists breaks ground and offers chang cheh another opportunity to step up his game is in its location shooting , taking the shaw team on the road to bangkok and offering up the exotic sights of 1970s thailand to enthrall viewers . the film also explores the subculture surrounding the muay thai boxing circuit , becoming one of the first , if not the first , film to feature the style . i can’t find any information on any films prior to this that featured muay thai , but as info is hard to come by on these films i think it’s best to say it’s “one of the first” instead of making unfounded , broad claims .
although duel of fists ended up being a bit overshadowed by bruce lee’ coming , its initial success and the riveting fierceness found in muay thai left enough of an impression to have led to the emergence of a minor thai boxing subgenre in its wake . such movies as king boxer , the boxers , greatest thai boxer , maui thai fists , fist of steel , the dark alley and bloody ring ( action choreography by sammo hung ) were either centred on muay thai or had a kung - fu meets kickboxing angle . actress pawana chanajit was even hired to be one of king boxer’s
for chang cheh , duel of fists is a rather bloodless film , so it’s all the more surprising when david chiang puts his hand into a dude’s stomach during the finale . whoa ! didn’t see that coming ! chang also utilizes small bits of editing to recall previous martial feats by chiang ( breaking wooden posts with his hands , etc . ) , cutting in shots of these feats upon impact to emphasize the hit chiang just laid down on his opponent . i really loved this technique , and it added a lot of the brutal , wince - inducing “oh shit ! ” factor that gouts of blood usually bring , without resorting to those huge gouts of blood . while i’m glad he often chose to go the gory route , i enjoyed the simple and effective artistry of the editing techniques seen in the final fight of duel of fists . and besides , if chang cheh made this film overly bloody it would have robbed david chiang’s final , red - tastic costume change of its visceral impact . 🙂
duel of fist was another hit from the
iron triangle
of director chang cheh and stars david chiang and ti lung . and , as with all the director ' s classics , one good hit deserves another , so . . . see full summary »
for one thing , in real life ti lung was a diligent wing - chung exponent and even after making duel he continued training in muay thai . he may not have been a master or a champion in the way that bruce lee was but he was genuinely adept at martial arts . duel’s big villain chen sing was a seasoned karate practitioner who conveyed a raw and gritty power that more than matched ti lung’s own . while in duel chiang’s fights were done in the conventional swingy arms way , chang cheh’s desire to display both realistic kick - boxing matches and ti lung’s own impressive physicality showed that he was going toward a similar goal of martial art authenticity later solely attributed to bruce lee . if anything , bruce lee’s instant success must have shown chang that with duel he was going in the right direction .
over all then , duel is therefore not overly recommended to anyone who isn’t a ti lung , muay thai or kung - fu cinema dedicated appreciator . for the first the movie shows ti lung at his bare - chested fighting furious best while for the second it offers the rare and offbeat showcase of a muay thai centred k - f movie . finally for the third , beyond an appreciably gritty fighting spectacle duel gives an instructive glimpse into the formative years of h - k made kung - fu cinema at the very threshold of bruce lee’s arrival .
bruce lee’s earthshaking arrival broke chiang and ti lung’s blood brothers movies popular momentum . two more were made , including a sequel to duel titled the angry guest ( feb . 72 ) , but neither of them added anything new . thus duel of fists had seen the cycle reaching its creative apex . chang cheh , ti lung and chiang therefore moved on , the first to help launch kung - fu medalled champion chen kuan - tai as shaw’s answer to bruce lee but that’s another story . within two years bruce lee died while chiang and ti lung enjoyed lengthy film careers in martial art cinema and beyond . director chang cheh himself continued to be an innovative martial - art director for most of the decade but past the mid - seventies his movies never enjoyed the popularity they had from 1967 to 1972 .
the film pits the awesome talents of richard matheson . . . with spielberg , delivering one of the best genre films of the past 50 years .

. some of the exterior scenes would even be done on location . chang’s series of unprecedented choices was probably led by the desire to both have a nice change of scenery as well as making the martial - art fighting more realistically fierce and brutal than ever , a set of qualities that are found in muay thai kick - boxing . in any case , as nearly all of chang’s movies were dominated by the imagery of muscular young men cutting or gutting themselves with swords , daggers and hatchets , it can be safely assumed that the mere sight of a muay thai match with it’s young boxers in tight , colourful shorts fiercely fighting one another with fists , kicks and knee jambs must have made quite a vivid impression on him .
duel of fists isn’t as good as it could’ve been , but i still enjoyed the hell out of it . it felt like a good mix between chang’s previous non - martial arts focused films such as stuff like dead end , the singing killer , or the anonymous heroes , and his more well - known , action pictures . it’s also interesting to see how he balances the film between the civilized brutality of the sanctioned ring fighting , and the more traditional shaw brothers free - for - all brawls . and no matter if you like this film or not , david chiang’s wardrobe was just killing it in this movie . if i ever go to bangkok , i should be so lucky as to walk off the plane with as much style as he had here .
that being said , some of the fights are a bit lame . even with tang chia and lau kar - leung choreographing everything , there’s still more than this movie’s share of boring group battles . it’s especially sad because they managed to create such iconic , impressive group fights in the duel , so i would have thought that they’d at least be close to that level here . it’s not a big concern because the fights are always fun , but more than a few times they could easily be better . the in - ring fights , though , are a lot more interesting ( at least to me ) . they aren’t going for flashy there either , instead trying to craft realistic , but exciting movie battles that look like real fights . coupled with the rather static filming of these fights , i think they pulled it off really well . and besides , after so many shaw films featuring variations on similar kung fu forms , the muay thai here was fascinating and a real treat . but that’s me , and i imagine many modern viewers will be bored and fail to see the exotic allure that a lot of duel of fists is built upon . after tony jaa , it’s a little hard to go back to this , and i totally understand that .

yes , you could probably say action is what this film is all about , but to me it was all about style . as one of the few shaw brothers films set in the present day , duel of fists has license to be a 70’s film , with all that that entails . david chiang has never looked more comfortable than in the varying succession of groovy threads he gets to wear throughout the film ( watch out for the cowboy - pimp outfit he sports at the end of the film ) . even the henchmen get to dress up , and the group brawls are given a visual boost as our heroes are surrounded by goons in a myriad of brightly coloured shirts , offset by painfully tight looking flairs . if that’s not enough , david chiang also demonstrates the best way to avoid a car and pick up a date at the same time ( take note people ) . ti lung also gets some good outfits , but none to rival david’s . if the fashion isn’t enough , there’s a great funky soundtrack and more whip pans then you can poke a stick at .
over the years ti lung developed a following in the west among hong kong cinema fans , while david chiang on the other hand became one of the most overlooked k - f star - players . some fans it seems even developed a strong deprecating view of him , questioning his looks , acting and screen - fighting skills . they were a bit annoyed by his usually wily and perpetually smirking screen persona and strongly resented that chiang regularly upstaged ti lung in the fights or as the film’s real dramatic focus . duel of fists probably helped to develop such ill appreciation . indeed , while in the film a bare - chested ti lung delivered a fierce , gruelling and authentic looking fighting performance in the ring , swingy arms chiang on the other hand was seen easily besting half a dozen opponents at a time in those stylized whirlwind fights . it was also the slender chiang who was given the film’s final showdown against karate powerhouse chen seng while ti lung was on the sideline . finally , as the film was set in the early seventies , chiang was forced to wear some of period’s most horrendous examples of garish fashion run amok , not the best way to make a good impression .
mr apicha said he was later informed of pawana ' s death at about 3am .

as chinese boxer ended up the box office champion of the year , it’s likely the huge success met by wang yu prompted chang to follow suit with a k - f movie of his own . instead of making a film around chinese kung - fu though he hit on the idea of making one centred on thailand’s muay thai . he also decided to set the film in contemporary time as well as outside of china ; in thailand’s own capital bangkok

unusually for a shaw brothers film , much of this was shot in thailand . having the real locations instead of cheap sets ( though there are still some in there ) really helps this film , and sets it apart from many of the run of the mill efforts that came out that the same time . it also adds an authentic touch that grounds the picture .

urltoken back in the day before steven spielberg became an enormously acclaimed filmmaker irresponsibly recognized by the oscars for directing epic , arty , classy dramas , he was unrecognized for his talent in the thriller genre . when he began he directed his incredible debut feature , a little monster of an exploitation movie called
duel .
although it was filmed on a micro budget and was regarded as a throwaway b movie by the studio that backed it ' s production , it remains one of the most skilfully crafted television movies ever produced , and to a greater extent it is among spielberg ' s greatest films if not the very best of his prestigious cinema legacy . interestingly ever since it ' s creation a number of spielberg ' s well known films pay homage to duel through similar uses of camera shots and characters originating from this film , including that of close encounters of the third kind , and jaws . needless to say that it is incredibly tense and endlessly terrifying . it it essentially the perfect demonstration that ambition and imagination is superior to massive cgi creations when it comes to making the most skillful and enjoyable horror films for both genre fanatics and the general popcorn audience . not only is dennis weaver ' s twitchy , quirky , paranoid performance absolutely terrific , but the direction is absolutely phenomenal for a feature debut . spielberg get ' s just about everything in this genre movie correct , it has an opportunist plot , a fantastic lead , endless tension and sets his career up for greater triumphs . it has a marvelous hitchcock meets
the twilight zone
influenced narrative that makes for a great atmosphere enhanced with spellbinding music and sound effects as well as eery voice over work and silent suspense . duel is basically a darkly haunting benchmark in demonstrating how a finely ambitious small screen director can be instantly transformed into hollywood ' s most admired , all due to one influential and timeless hit .

this new film somehow transcends its rather parochial roots to become a first - rate work of legitimate if eccentric order .
this 1971 made - for - tv movie was one of steven spielberg ' s auditions for jaws , and the same slickly impersonal shock effects prevail .

one thing’s for certain , this film is trendsetting . it is one of the earliest attempts at making action packed “tournament” films like “rocky” and the “karate kid . ” more importantly , it was also one of the first films to showcase thai kickboxing , a sport that was made a household name by van damme over a decade later . even lo wei’s “the big boss” ( also filmed thailand around the same time ) didn’t take advantage of this brutal thai martial art .
during chiang’s initial time in thailand , the film has something of a travelogue - like quality , showing us the sites as he travels around . eventually he finds himself at the boxing arena , and here the allure of a foreign culture continues to take precedence over story for chang cheh . the first muay thai match is
set in contemporary bangkok , it ' s partly a proto - kickboxer , partly a tourism promotional film , and partly standard chang revenge fare . the other two sides of the
iron triangle
, david chiang and ti lung , play long - lost brothers reunited on the thai fight circuit but few of the fights stand out .
the film ' s rusted , growling tanker truck is an obvious predecessor to the man - eating great white of jaws . and it ' s every bit as terrifying .
at 24 , spielberg demonsrated his technical virtuosity with his first made for tv feature , a nail - biting suspenser of a salesman pursued on the roadby a mad trucker .

i’m not a practitioner or a scholar of muay thai or anything , so i can’t comment on the accuracy of the depiction here , but the movements felt true and i was impressed with how well both ti lung and ku feng were able to make their fighting look believable . neither actor looked like they were performing anything close to the kung fu seen in previous shaw bros films , which is mighty impressive . we often place our barometer of acting quality on an actor’s ability to convey realistic drama , but this type of psychical acting should not be discredited . at this point it’s probably unnecessary to say , but i don’t think chang cheh could have made this film a few years earlier with jimmy wang yu . while i have come to respect and enjoy a good wang yu film , he just didn’t have the martial ability necessary to make something like this believable . this also hammers home how different martial arts films had become at the time , just six short years after temple of the red lotus kicked off the modern era of fight films .

i suspect that the thai government or the thai tourism dept . had a role in making this movie happen . it was noticeably generous and fair in it ' s depiction of thailand and bangkok , with several scenes of straight tourism from the hong kong hero . the plot was very slight . the fights were frequent , unspectacular , and unbelievable . people magically heal overnight . does the long time muay thai champ called
killer
really have a title fight every day ? best part of movie were the increasingly gay outfits worn by the hk hero on vacation . forgettable .
the static in - ring footage is finally pushed to the side for the climactic battle between ti lung and ku feng . the camera gets inside the ring ( at times ) , and actively tries to deliver both a stunning action sequence and a realistic portrayal of a heart - pounding fight . i don’t think it fully succeeds at this , especially with so many of the blows clearly not hitting the other fighter , but it still works despite the flaws . the choreography here is noticeably more movie - like too , making this one of the most exciting moments in the film .

gabe ' s intended mark is john gillon ( bruce dern ) , the soft - spoken , politely menacing mr . big of diggs town , who came into his position some years before as a result of a legendary bout that is still spoken about in hushed , somewhat embarrassed tones . everybody knows that the bout was crooked , but not to what degree . gabe and gillon are perfectly matched in their sparring outside the ring .
the film opens at songkran , the thai new year festival traditionally held from april 13th–15th and celebrated by throwing water on random strangers . we are given a taste of things to come , before being quickly whisked back to hong kong , where david chiang plays a civil engineer . one day , his father confesses on his deathbed that he once had an affair with a thai girl during one of his business trips , and he asks david to find his half - brother that he never knew he had . so off chiang goes , and we go with him to experience the exotic culture and country , as well as a different breed of martial arts film .

chang cheh’s direction in non - action scenes have never been a problem , but this one drags . at one point , i wanted it to end . there was enough action , it just wasn’t hard - hitting enough . the bad editing ( or lack of ) didn’t help either . a lot of the bullshit could have been toned down , for example : the two ugly wenches – one did nothing but cry and the other was like a giddy filipina mail order bride on heroin .

another thing that sets this film apart is the fight choreography . it ' s some of the best i ' ve seen , and it should come as no surprise that it was done by the legendary lau kar leung . lau has always taken care to showcase the real martial art where possible and you can see that here are some very accurate muay thai bouts . ti lung makes a credible thai boxer , showing why he was one of the shaw brothers best screen fighters . the action outside the ring is purposefully less pure : it ' s not kung fu , it ' s brawling , and there are some really well staged group battles . there ' s a lot of action in this film ; the two distinct styles ( and inventive choreography and camerawork ) keep the film from getting repetitive . you could argue that there would probably be more guns around at the time , but when we get to see chiang and lung kicking and punching their way through hordes of goons , we can ' t complain .
the scam takes him to diggstown , a small georgia town that seems to be as fantastic as brigadoon but far less benign . gabe has learned of the place through his cellmate . halfway between nowhere and nowhere , diggstown looks like any other sleepy , utterly corrupt speed - trap , but it ' s different . it ' s the center for what ' s known as cash fighting , epic boxing matches that are supervised by no one except the high rollers who arrange and bet on them . they aren ' t the kind of matches that are recorded in the almanacs .
pol lt - col pinyo muksiksarn , the duty officer at nakhon chaisri station , said on monday that he received a report about 3am that pawana ' s body had been found on the ledge of a pond near her house on nakhon chaisri - pinklao road , near the thai human imagery museum .

, without any flourish to the filmmaking . it simply allows us to take in the battle as an audience member would , also capturing the fighters’ ritualistic praying and dancing prior to the match . this isn’t a real match , though , so some of the illusion is broken when that becomes apparent , but it doesn’t hurt the film too much .
chang cheh keeps things very simple in terms of plot , leaving as much room as possible for the action—on his fathers dying wish , fan ko ( david chiang ) goes to thailand to find his brother wen leih ( ti lung ) , a thai boxer . the boxing world is rife with crime , and it’s not long before the boys get caught up in the mess .
chang cheh’s films are often , for no readily apparent reason , more enjoyable than they should be . the hokiness seems only to add to the films . many elements of this film are quite strange : for example , the photo chiang has by which to identify his brother with shows his distinguishing tattoo , although he’s only about 10 years old . the plot manages to be simple while still not making much sense . the sound effects guy must have been trying something new when they shot this , because all punches and kicks sound like bits of wood smashing together . yet somehow all these elements come together to make the film a really fun experience . it also provides more than enough reason for a jaded moviegoer to fall in love with the 70’s again .

while shaw leading lady ching li would play ti lung’s . her own real life father , character actor cheng miu , would play david chiang’s dying old man . thai boxers were also hired to serve as fight - extras and most likely fight trainers and advisors as well . the role of ti lung’s big ring opponent though was to be played by shaw’s chameleon - like character - actor ku feng

opens in bangkok in mid - april during song kran , a festival where the entire country gets into public waterfights . then cuts to hong kong , where fan ko ' s dying father wants his son to quit his civil engineering job to take over his boxing school . then father tells him a secret - he had another son with a thai girl . to honour his father ' s dying wish , fan ko goes to thailand to seek his half - brother wun li . wun li is in trouble . he ' s a good fighter who hates gamblers , but the gamblers are trying hard to rope him in . as part of their plan , they ' ve matched him against the killer , the national champion , two of whose opponents have died in the ring . wun li explains to his girl , yu lan , that he simply must win .
diggstown
is acted with immense style by mr . woods , mr . dern and mr . gossett , as well as by some members of the supporting cast . these include oliver platt , who plays a card - sharp and pool hustler , the decoy gabe sends into diggstown to set up the scam , and heather graham , best remembered as the unhappy nadine in
drugstore cowboy ,
who somehow manages to be memorable in a movie that scarcely recognizes women .
his choices made , chang and his usual writing partner i kuang then cranked up a script , while lead star ti lung went on to daily training in kick - boxing . a local thai film crew was hired to help shaw’s own team and the movie exterior scenes were shot in april 1971 during thailand’s water - festival and the few shots of many water - fights inserted later on captured the local ambience quite well . a thai actress pawana chanajit was cast to play david chiang’s love interest

a funny and vulgar fable about con artists so cynical that signs of simple skepticism can be taken for religious epiphanies . adapted by steven mckay from a novel by leonard wise ,
diggstown
is rough and improbable , its plotting sometimes opaque ; yet it moves with such speed and cheerful nerviness that it ' s almost as irresistible as its fast - talking hero is reputed to be .
more than a year and a half into the blood - brothers cycle , chang cheh had yet to make a fully - fledged kung - fu movie . meaning by this a film really centred on the martial arts themselves not just in its fighting displays but in its narrative as well . this had just been achieved by chang’s own former protégé martial art cinema super - star wang yu the star and director of the chinese boxer ( nov 1970 ) , widely considered today as the very first modern kung - fu movie . produced by shaw , the film’s kung - fu fights had been handled by the very same action choreographers and stunt - crew that chang used in his own movies .

we almost thought of 40 - 50 titles to get the aptly suitable title for the film . one fine day while i was listening to an old song ‘oohalu gusagusalaade……’ from the film ‘bandipotu’ , i felt that the first line got connected to the story . that’s how i selected the title ‘oohalu gusagusalaade’ .
now , venkat’s cinematography in oohalu gusagusalade is being lauded for befitting the narrative and not trying to rise above what’s being demanded by the script . this is his first telugu film and venkat feels he has come full circle . “i was born in guntur and did mechanical engineering from chennai , before moving to the us , ” he says .

but let us warn you that the kind of humour in oohalu gusagusalade and slow narration may not be everyone’s idea of a romantic film . however , those who like slow - paced romantic entertainers and intelligent comedy are bound to enjoy the film . also , the film’s length should have been cut short and the director should have taken care to give equal prominence to supporting cast .
‘oohalu gusa gusa laade ‘ is a romantic comedy that will make for a great weekend watch with its good entertainment levels . this is a film that will do well in multiplex areas .
the movie is releasing in over 200 theatres all over the world . director srini avasarala and the lead pair naga shaurya and rashi khanna are very happy with the interest being shown by big budgeted films producer sai korrapati regarding the publicity of a small film like ' oohalu gusagusalade ' . they have also wished sai korrapati , who is celebrating birthday today ( 19 . 06 . 14 ) , a very happy birthday .
a common friend , bala rajasekhar , sent venkat’s work to srinivas avasarala and he got to work on oohalu gusagusalade . “looking back , i feel grateful for the faith srinivas avasarala and producer sai korrapati had in a debutant like me , ” he says . shooting a film with limited budget had its challenges . “coming from a film school , i love challenges . the prospect of having to work around limitations triggers creativity , ” he adds .
varahi chalana chitram has produced the romantic film oohalu gusa gusa laade . the movie has released across the world and srinivas avasarala is making his debut as a director . let us see how this movie is now .
the film has completed all the formalities including the censor work and is ready for a release on june 20th . talking about the film , sai korrapati says
srinivas avasarala has filmed ' oohalu gusagusalade ' very well . the songs composed by kalyani koduri have attracted both the youth and the family audiences . our film has got a clean u certificate and will be released on june 20th . we hope that this film will become another good hit in our banner
.
naga shaurya is the lead actor and raashi khanna of ' madras cafe ' and ' manam ' fame is the lead actress in this film . sai korrapati , the producer of big films like ' eega ' and ' legend ' , has produced this film on vaaraahi chalana chitram banner . this film will be hitting the screens on may 20th and hope ' oohalu gusagusalade ' turns out to be a big hit for srinivas avasarala and he makes his mark as a director .
but avasarala’s performance and impressive lead pair more than make up for these shortcomings . the director also manages to pull off the love track between the lead pair successfully . he proves that he can deftly handle other emotions apart from comedy . of course , he does fail to fill in some gaps especially towards the climax . had he taken care of them , he would have been a complete success in his very first attempt . in all , oohalu gusagusalade will attract class audiences who prefer subtle romantic comedies .
the story of ‘oohalu gusagusalaade’ revolves around a guy who aspires to become a news anchor and how changes occur in his life with a girl’s entry . it’s a complete romantic comedy film . posani and prithvi’s characters will catch audience’s attention .
i prepared the script of ‘oohalu gusagusalaade’ with the intention to direct the film by myself and approached several producers with it . all like the script but had their own reasons for not making the film . at one point of time , few producers even planned to make the film with my script and other directors . but finally , my script went into the hands of sai korrapati garu . kalyani koduri introduced me to him and that’s how i got the opportunity to direct ‘oohalu gusagusalaade’ .
what is “oohalu gusagusalade” about ? after going through numerous marriage proposals uday bhaskar ( srinivas avasarala ) finally likes a girl immensely and wants to marry her at any way possible . but his ways to win over the girl forms a bad opinion in her mind . sirisha ( rashee khanna ) agrees to marry him only if she finds someone even worse than him in behavior . uday sets up venki ( naga shourya ) to be that person . what happens in the end is what the film showcases in a very classy manner with lots of comic situations in second half .
of late many actors , actresses and directors are making their debut in tollywood with small films . ' oohalu gusa gusa lade’ is one such film with the director srinivasa rao avasarala and the lead pair naga shourya and raashi khanna making their debut with the film .
after a good reception from audience within india and from the us , avasarala took to facebook and shared his views on the script and characters in the play . he was deeply thrilled when people asked why he chose nara rohith in the movie . “i think nara rohith fits the part perfectly . i was looking for someone who could act as an elder brother and he did a great job for me . i am really happy with the response . naga shourya is also a wonderful actor and in this movie he expressed his emotions with much more intensity than in oohalu gusagusalade , ” said avasarala .
oohalu has opened new doors in the telugu film industry but venkat is looking forward to return to the us . “i want to work on both international projects and telugu films . it will be tough , but i hope i will be able to work in both countries , ” he signs off .
a self - confessed woody allen fan , srinivas avasarala went all out to indicate that his directorial debut , oohalu gusagusalade , will have allen’s influences with the first still where the principal characters stand against a poster of annie hall . as the film unfolds , the references get pronounced . in the initial scenes , characters express themselves to the audience , with a little help from a voiceover . midway into the film , we see avasarala in his library where books on woody allen figure prominently . but for most part of the film , avasarala moves away from these obvious references and soaks in the story he wants to narrate . when he gets down to doing that , he reveals fine writing skills that blend smart humour into the narrative , and his ability to execute a good script getting enough support from actors , the technical team and the composer .
srinivas avasarala , has put an impression on the audience’s minds by showing great ease in his performance in ‘ashta chemma’ . later he worked for few films as an actor and writer as well before he turned director for this romantic comedy ‘oohalu gusagusalaade’ . sai korrapati of ‘eega’ and ‘andala rakshasi’ fame , who has passion for small films with good content , encouraged this young talent to bring out his directorial skills . introducing naga shourya as hero and rashi khanna of ‘madras café’ as heroine , srinivas avasarala made his directorial debut with ‘oohalu gusagusalaade’ under sai korrapati production banner with rajani korrapati as producer and sai sivani as its presenter . the film has hit theaters today ( june 20 , 2014 ) across two states andhra pradesh and telangana and at overseas in over 200 theaters . on this occasion , an interview has been given by actor cum director srinivas avasarala . here are few excerpts from his interview .
uday babu is a channel owner . ub ( avasarala srinivas ) an aged bachelor likes prabhavati sireesha ( rasi khanna ) . he decides to marry her only . he tries to impress in several ways . but fails to work out . venkateswarlu ( naga sourya ) is his employee . his ambition is to become a news reader and a very tactfully flirts girls . uday wants to use venkat and his ideas to trap prabhavati . uday plans a plot to send venky for first looks ( pelli choopulu ) and tries to thinks of convincing sirisha to reject him so that ub’s line would be clear . uday offers a news reader post if sirisha marries him . in a can’t but situation venky accepts and goes to the first look meet . venky discovers that sirisha is none other than the girl whom she loved two years ago in vizag . why sirisha and venky separated ? will he sacrifice his news reader post for love ? will he ensure success of his boss ? the answer to these question is oohalu gusagusalade . .
this year , i watched more films than ever before ( over 65 if i’m showing off ) and enjoyed every second of pouring over their details , scrutinising and analysing them and their merits , and just generally being a nerd . i did have a full list of ten ( it included haider , jigarthanda and dedh ishqiya if you were wondering ) but i had nothing to say about them . they were perfect , solid , inventively sculpted pieces of cinema . i agreed with their aesthetics and politics . but it’s really hard for me to say what makes them so great . they just…are ! so the films in this list are simply the most interesting ; the films which are perhaps not always perfect , but could not have been made in any other way , for any other audience , in any other language or cultural climate . they are works that have surprised me , will continue to surprise me , and that i’m sure will prove to be of great cultural importance to the industries they were produced in . i hope that all makes sense ! so here we go : 7 . oohalu gusagusalade

venkateshwar rao or venky ( naga shourya ) has a way with words . he strikes conversations with ease , has many young women as friends at his workplace and dreams of being a newsreader of repute like his father but is stuck with tele - advertising , peddling one product after another . his boss uday ( srinivas avasarala ) has no intention of letting him be a newsreader . despite being well read and suave , uday is at best clumsy when it comes to women and can put no amount of textbook gyaan to practice . uday needs venky’s help to help him woo a potential bride his family zeroes in on through a marriage broker .
as much as avasarala lets his lead characters bloom , he doesn’t ignore the small characters . there’s the dhobi who slyly notes down the phone number rashi scribbles on a dirty car glass ; there’s a supportive mother who nudges naga shourya to listen to his heart and there’s the father who hardly speaks a word , limited by his paralysis , and shows a flicker of hope on seeing his son play act a news - reading session .
humour prevents the later portions from getting boring and predictable . the tussle between a man who , despite all the hand - holding , can make a mess of expressing his love and the man who knows to charm his woman but is restricted by circumstances makes for an engaging watch .
both naga shourya and rashi khanna match up to avasarala and prove they are actors with potential . kalyani malik’s melodies and background score are an asset .
you can update your channel preference from the settings menu in the header menu .
many actors have turned directors in the past after making some successful films , but only a few are successful . in the recent past , vennela kishore had tried his luck at direction , but he was not successful . now he is back to acting . even veteran actors like m . s . narayana have not tasted success in direction .
sai korrapati , the producer of films like ' eega ' and ' legend ' , has produced this film on vaaraahi chalan chitram banner . the songs composed by kalyani koduri were released recently and got a good response .
naga shaurya was ���on the verge of calling it quits��� when varahi chalana chitram banner issued a casting call for young actors . ���having waited for over four - and - a - half years to get that elusive break , i was beginning to have second thoughts about continuing in showbiz , ��� recalls shaurya , who decided to take one last crack at being an actor and went for the auditions , where he was asked to do a comedy scene by director avasarala srinivas .
���i was very nervous because he ( avasarala ) is such a fine actor , ��� admits shaurya who managed to convince the filmmakers that he had it in him to be a solo lead . ���when i look back , it feels unreal , ��� says the actor who made his onscreen debut with chandamama kathalu recently . he is now playing the lead in the romantic comedy ,
. shaurya is paired opposite raashi khanna in the movie ���it���s a clean romantic entertainer that will ring a smile to people���s faces .
the romance will be heartwarming and will connect with the audiences of all age groups , ��� says shaurya , who is playing a guy called venky in the movie set in hyderabad and vizag . ���the film explores how the idea of being in love changes from late teens to the mid - twenties . i play an engineering graduate who falls in love with prabhavati ( raashi ) . how the love story twists and turns until i get a job is the crux of the plot , ��� the actor informs .
apparently , director srinivas avasarala plays naga shaurya���s overbearing boss in the movie . ���the episodes between me and avasarala are going to be the most hilarious ones in the movie , ��� says the actor .

around 2000 applications have come for the casting call ad which we gave for the film . naga shourya’s photos caught my attention . i was also impressed with his show reel and okayed him instantly . similarly rasi khanna’s performance in ‘madras café’ was pleasing . so i approached her and signed for the film . she played a tricky role in the film . i’m very happy with the casting of this film . both perfectly suited for the lead characters and showed great ease in acting . they did cent percent justice to their roles .
yes , you heard it right . i played the ceo of a tv channel . producer sai never encouraged me to do any role and suggested me to focus completely on direction . but i managed to shoot few scenes in two days in his absence . later he couldn’t deny it after watching the rushes .
i worked as an actor and writer for few films . and for the first time i directed a film . i prepared three pucca scripts and choose to do this film first because it’s a safe bet for the producer . i still have two scripts in hand . on the other hand , i got bored with comedy and romantic roles . i aim to do variety roles and wish to be part of a good film . so i neither want to settle down completely as a director or an actor .
yes , kalyani’s music is an asset to the film . he composed beautiful songs . response was fabulous for all songs .
sai korrapati’s production values and aggressive publicity have helped your film to reach theaters fast .
i’ve signed yet another film for producer sai korrapati garu . film with naga chiatanya has not yet been finalized . i’ve decided not to take any hasty decision and step forward with proper planning . on the other hand , i’m playing a role in gopichand’s film which is being made under uv creations banner . i’m also doing a character in allari naresh’s ‘bandipotu’ .
debut cinematographer venkat c . dilip feels honing his skills in the us helped him take a new look at cinema
venkat c . dilip submitted his thesis as part of his course in cinematography only to be told by the professor that his work was overshadowing the film instead of seamlessly blending with it . venkat made the necessary changes and re - submitted his thesis . he remembered this lesson when he stepped out of film school to work as a camera assistant for hollywood projects like savannah and crackerjack and short films such as passing through traveling down and the visions of dylan bradley . “i observed that the work of many cinematographers tends to dominate a project and didn’t want to do that , ” he says .
like many youngsters aspiring to learn the basics of filmmaking , venkat too decided to train to be a director . but rather than taking up courses for script writing and direction , he was drawn to cinematography . “the course also taught me editing , which is essential to be a filmmaker , ” he says .
during the three - year masters programme at savannah college of arts and design , he got to intern on the sets of robert redford’s the conspirator . “i was the only asian on the sets . from guntur to training with robert redford’s unit , it was a big shift . my father had egged me on to go to the us . i am so glad he did ; my learning and work experience there changed my thought process . i learnt to look at a film differently , ” he says . venkat’s parents are film buffs and academicians now working in swaziland .
the portions between rashi khanna and naga shourya in vizag have drawn attention . “the vizag locales were refreshing . i wanted this portion of the film to look beautiful , yet not artificial , ” he says . appreciation had been coming in from his ilk as well . “senthil kumar appreciated the beach song for its colours and texture and p . g vinda liked the night photography . that was a bit tricky ; we had limited lights and had to make the scenes appear natural , ” says venkat .

story n venkateswara rao ( naga shourya ) is an youngster whose ambition is to become a famous tv newsreader just like his bedridden father . he works in a tv studio that is owned by uday ( srinivas avasarala ) . uday is a socially awkward guy and is bad at communicating with women . venkateswara rao falls in love with prabhavathi ( rashi khanna ) few years back when he visits a relative in vizag . they break - up because of a misunderstanding . the rest of the story is all about what happens when uday wants to impress upon prabhavathi .
actors : naga shourya looks sweet and lovable despite having a body language that suits aggressive characterization . for a first timer , he does a decent job . rashi khanna is impressive with her looks as well as performance . she has a pleasant screen presence . srinivas avasarala has got very good scenes in the second half and he excels with extempore performance . he reminded me of bill murry ( especially in lost in translation ) when it comes to facial expressions in close - up shots in second half . music director kalyann koduri has done a cameo of a black ticket seller and he exudes confidence . all others are appropriately cast and has performed well .
story - screenplay - direction : the story penned by srinivas avasarala is interesting . he gave a different treatment to the plot . it’s a plain and simple narration with loads of dialogues . it’s a kind of plot that also works for theater ( plays ) as it has limited characters and limited locations . srini has his own style of tongue - in - cheek classy humor and he implemented the same for the characters in this movie . it worked very well for the scenes he is involved in the film as an actor . for other actors , it partly worked . the screenplay of the film is very convenient . for example , when the director want to break the pair off he made hero talk about heroine’s character ( bad influence of delhi culture and warring parents ) . there are a few flaws in the story which should have been ironed before going to the shoot . the hero of the film is made spineless in the second half as he blindly helps srini avasarala by sacrificing his own love .
other departments : songs composed by kalyann koduri are melodious . there are only four songs . background music is different . srinivas avasarala has excelled as a dialogue writer . cinematography by venkat c dilip is alright . art direction of ravinder deserves a mention . editing by kiran ganti should be more crisp . producer sai korrapati deserves a pat on his back for trusting the director who tried making a film that doesn’t follow the current ‘entertainment format’ . he has also promoted the film aggressively and brought a lot of visibility .
an impressive beginning while establishing the main characters is very important for any film . but the way characters are introduced in this film is lacklustre . however , the momentum picks up with a beautifully narrated flashback episode . second half should have been balanced among three characters with a nice play among them . the positive points of the film are tasteful dialogues and music . on the flipside , snail - paced narration and uninteresting screenplay hampers the movie . on a whole , it’s a good attempt to provide a clean and healthy film . we have to wait and see how crowds embrace the movie .

sai korrapati of ‘eega’ fame has produced the film and srinivasa avasarala , known for acting , has turned to direction with this film .
a simple and cute love story with loads of entertainment awaits the audience . venkateswara rao or venky ( naga shourya ) is a television anchor and his ambition is to become a good news reader . but his boss uday bhaskar ( avasarala srinivas ) does not give him the opportunity to do so . venky ends up anchoring tele - marketing ads . uday bhaskar sees a girl sridevi ( raashi khanna ) and wants to marry her . awkward in the presence of girls , uday seeks venky’s help to talk to sridevi . initially reluctant to help his boss , venky agrees when uday promises him a promotion as a newsreader . venky meets sridevi and realizes that she is none other than his ex - girlfriend prabhavathi . a flashback sequence shows how he fell in love with prabhavathi when in vizag for a vacation . a triangular story from here onwards , the film shows how venky sorts the tangled relationships .
avasarala srinivasa rao has to be appreciated for wearing many hatssuccessfully . apart from direction , he has also given a good performance as an actor . the scenes where avasarala impresses sridevi at the hotel and at the house are hilarious . avasarala has also written the screenplay and penned impressive and witty dialogues . the lead pair , naga shourya and raashi khanna , in their debut appearance , have done excellent work . naga shourya is perfect for the role of venky ; he looks fresh and has performed with ease . he has proved that there is bundle of local talent in addition to the star kids .
raashi khanna is definitely a good find for telugu cinema . she is very impressive with her performance and has done her homework well . she has a bright future ahead . rao ramesh puts in a brief appearance , but his present is felt in the film .
technically also the film is good with some beautiful locales captured by the cinematographer venkat . the songs are lovely with music by kalyani koduri and excellent picturisation . theclimax scene and the comedy routines fall a bit flat , still this breezy romantic entertainer is breath of fresh air . after watching all the regular masala action films , you can watch this film for its clean comedy sans double meaning dialogues .
directed by avasarla srinivas , this film had naga shourya in the lead roles . we caught with this talented actor for a brief chit chat . let’s see what he has to say .
a ) i was sick and tired or being a struggler , and when i almost decided to give up , i saw the casting call and applied for this role . after a huge round of auditions , i was finally selected for this role . though i signed this film first , chandamama kathalu released first .
a ) as i have already told you , i have been auditioning from the past five years . i have lost the camera fear , and found it very easy when we went on sets . i also did a 20 day work shop with the other star which helped me do my role .
