Dark Themes, Will It Trend?

Adult comedy served in the name of youthful romance has become a deep rooted phenomenon in Tollywood, thanks to the trend initiated by Maruthi and took forward by many of his followers. Although, many of the small film makers got their jobs done and producers happily enjoyed the profits in this genre but time has come for making some major changes to this existing trend and the process is initiated by Sukumar.  

‘Kumari 21 F’ is completely a teenage/youth centric film which speaks on attitudes of teenagers towards love and lust or the way they turn into criminals when side tracked for sexual comforts. Though, it’s hard to find someone like Hebah Patel character in real life but Raj Tharun’s love track is surely an easy connect with every teenager in early immature stage. Till this point, ‘Kumari 21 F’ is the usual adult game of love served in the form of youthful entertainment.

What makes Sukku different from other regular directors in this genre is the way he visualized a hard hitting or dark shaded climax. Generally, Tamil directors adhere to this kind of formula which rarely gets recognition in Telugu. Think different is what Sukku preaches here for budding writers and dark themes might become the new trend in Tollywood, if at all ‘Kumari 21 F’ succeeds extremely well at Box Office.
