When Anand was released a couple of years back, there was not much talk in the first few days. But the film's quiet dignity, its understated sunny optimism and above all, it sensibility touched a favorable chord among the public. And quickly Shekar Kammula was taken as a director of skills and style. So when that Shekar Kammula is now ready with Godavari, a movie that he has poetically and painstakingly made in the backdrop of monsoon areas, the expectation is naturally high. Godavari starring Sumanth and Shekar's own find Kamalini, is a sensitive story about life and the emotions thereof.
Story
Sreeram (Sumanth) is a principled chap with an inclination towards politics. With an altruistic attitude he goes out of the way to help others. Seeta (Kamalinee Mukherjee) is a girl who does not want to confine to home and wants to live independently as an entrepreneur. Sreeram is seriously fascinated by his maradalu Raji (Neetu Chandra) and wants to marry her. But she feels that he is not her kind of guy. Raji’s parents settle her marriage with an IPS officer (Kamal Kamaraju). Seeta meets Sreeram and his relatives on their boat journey from Rajahmundry to Bhadrachalam. The rest of the story is all about how Sreeram and Seeta realize how perfect they are to each other.
