feb 2nd week: Avva & Hani Hani

This week, Avva directed by Kavitha Lankesh and Hani Hani directed by Sharan are releasing. Avva features Duniya Vijay and Smitha and Shruthi in the lead. Though the film is beeing promoted using the romantic scenes and kisses betweenn Smitha and Vijay, the film's main character is Shruthi's who plays the role of Avva.

Avva is based on a collection of stories by P. Lankesh Mussanjeya Maathu. The story has already been adopted on stage by some drama groups. The story is about a girl belonging to higher caste loving a lower caste boy. The film is weaved along the societal conditions in a rural area, the money lending business of a lady, how she manages her family and how a love story also starts in between.

Another film releasing this week Hani Hani directed by Sharan has Pooja Gandhi and Tarun in the lead. The songs of the movie have not been much impressive. Shran earlier directed the film Poojari and the film was out of the theatres in two weeks. Lets see how this film runs.
