Watch Trailer

Varsham is a 2004 Telugu-language romantic action movie that was produced by M.S. Raju under the Sumanth Art Productions label, directed by Sobhan, and starred Prabhas, Trisha, and Gopichand. Devi Sri Prasad provided the soundtrack for the movie. The movie was remade in Tamil as Mazhai (2005), Odia as Barsa My Darling (2004), and Hindi as Baaghi (2016).

Plot: An unemployed young man named Venkat meets a middle-class beauty named Sailaja on a train, and after dancing in a downpour, they become attracted to one another right away. Sailaja also captures the attention of Bhadranna, a cunning and deadly politician who has developed feelings for her. Every time it rains, Venkat continues running into Sailaja, and the two fall in love. Sailaja’s father, Ranga Rao, is a typical black sheep with a lot of undesirable habits. Ranga Rao accepts Bhadranna’s proposal to marry him after jumping at the chance. Later, a movie producer named Seenayya comes to Ranga Rao and offers Sailaja a role in a film.

Ranga Rao believes that her career as a movie actor would be more lucrative than her engagement to Bhadranna. He persuades Sailaja to act in a movie, then effectively foments disputes between lovers before heading into the city with her. Venkat departs for his uncle’s home in Vizag as well. Sailaja becomes a movie star in Vizag, and Venkat works alongside his uncle as a demolition specialist in a quarry. A few months later, after Ranga Rao has defrauded Bhadranna of some money, he discovers Sailaja’s current residence, kidnaps her, and attempts to convince her not to marry him. Ranga Rao tells Seenayya to approach Venkat because he thinks Venkat still has feelings for Sailaja. Seenayya becomes anxious because the shooting was stopped.

With Bhadranna, Venkat battles for Sailaja and concurs. Sailaja eventually realizes that she misunderstood Venkat and expresses her regret. They joyously make up, and both of them begin dating once more. Bhadranna kills his brother Kaasi that evening because he failed to bring Sailaja. From Hyderabad, Bhadranna is returning to kill Venkat and wed Sailaja. Bhadranna attempts to stab Venkat at the event but is stopped by his uncle Sivayya. Venkat defeats Bhadranna and congratulates Sailaja and Venkat’s allies after the fight. Bhadranna briefly regains consciousness before being crushed under the burning statue of Ravana and losing his life. In the film’s climax, Sailaja and Venkat reconcile.

Review by V ★★★½

Varsham is a genuinely made heartwarming movie, which feels like it was plucked straight out of life into celluloid, and Mammootty is back to doing what he is best at, to perform poignant portrayals with starkly real emotions that speak volumes and that is indeed Varsham’s biggest USP where Mammootty plays Venu, a relatable, life-like character with variegating humanly emotions who journeys through turmoils after turmoils in life and ultimately turning his upheavals into his success story bringing a meaning to his existence. With such a role in hand, there is absolutely no room for Mammootty to make an error, and he definitely has showered his most effective emotional performance in last 10 years since ‘Kazcha’, which again proves the…

Review by Ranga Anna ★★★½

Criminally underrated given the superb performances, emotional core, music and the ever relevant social message on toxic parenting. The final act felt too convenient and ended easy after a terrific second act.

The second best work of Ranjith Sankar after Su Sudhi Vatmeekam. Actually, in tie with Passenger.
