Description: After a year-long delay due to the pandemic, *30 Rojullo Preminchadam Ela* has finally hit the theaters. Promoted as a fresh love story, the film fails to live up to expectations, coming across as drawn-out and lacking in depth and soul.
The story begins in the rural areas of Andhra Pradesh, where a deeply in love couple faces challenges. Pradeep Machiraju’s character, who loves wrestling, is restrained by Amritha Aiyer’s character, leading to heartbreak. Centuries later, they are reborn as college students, Arjun and Akshara, who carry forward their animosity. The narrative follows their journey over 30 days as destiny pushes them to fall in love again.
Initially, the film shows promise but quickly succumbs to predictability. The interactions between the lead characters are cliché and often cringe-worthy. The director leans heavily on overused tropes, from the constant bickering to lackluster college humor and a supernatural subplot involving a bearded sage who reveals their past lives.
While the core premise of *30 Rojullo Preminchadam Ela* is intriguing, the execution falls short. The screenplay feels disjointed, making it hard for viewers to stay engaged as the story jumps between scenes without clear connections. Overall, the film struggles to deliver on its potential.
