If there's any problem with Hushaaru, it's the cinematic convenience. Through Rahul's character, the director takes a dig at corporate life and arranged marriages and the actor's terrific spontaneity ensures some rip-roaring laughter.

The first hour borders on the predictable while it's the presence of Rahul Ramakrishna that livens up proceedings post intermission. Hushaaru, like most recent Telugu films, goes overboard in glorifying alcoholism but this thread is smartly connected to the brewery that group of friends establish, where they brew their own beer to heart's content. The film serves as a mirror to the transient nature of our relationships today, the lack of commitment, financial pressures of millennials and on the rosy side, how online friendships can sometimes can spring a surprise too. The main conflict point of Hushaaru is with the protagonists' careers and how they stand by each other during thick and thin. But for Tejus Kancherla, the lead cast comprises new faces and it helps Hushaaru be the carefree, light-hearted film it aspires to be, without much pretension. The film taps their desperation to fall in love, following their heart and their tryst with personal and professional hiccups. Hushaaru takes off where Happy Days left, and the unlike the former, this outing has four aimless characters who don't have girlfriends during their college days, have modest academic records that don't even aid them in attending corporate interviews. Well, Hushaaru's similarity with the film ends there too. The director Sree Harsha balances the film's commercial appeal with good music and breezy, slice of life treatment.Ī graduate on the farewell day at commencement of the film blames Sekhar Kammula's Happy Days to have romanticised engineering life. It may not be the surprise of the year yes, although it's a spirited and an eventful narrative that rises above its flaws and stereotypes. Four best buddies, parallel love lives, parental conflicts and their pressures to make a career, Hushaaru ticks all the boxes you expect out of a 'feel good buddy film'. Review: Hushaaru is a proof of how you can tread the 'tried and tested' path and still make a reasonably engaging film. How they rise above this and help their friendship stand the ultimate test of character is Hushaaru for you. Just when the going seems fairly smooth, a personal setback hits them hard.

Story: Four engineering graduates, clueless about what life is bound to offer them, enjoy being in each other's company, making the most of their vivacious energy, sometimes desperate to get into relationships.
