 What happens when feelings of love are grown for a person but then it has to be removed, how can love be born again, is it in human control? All these are the aspects of ‘Current’ and how clearly has it been conveyed, let us see.
Story
Sushanth (sushanth) and Sneha (sneha) are like two poles apart. While Sushanth is more the happy go luck guy who believes in living for the moment and does not believe in thinking about the future, Sneha is the opposite. However, their paths cross each other and Sushanth falls in love with her at the very first sight. Though Sneha turns him down initially, in no time she also starts developing feelings for him. Soon, they fall in love and the time comes for Sushanth to meet Sneha’s father (Charanraj). He arrives late as usual and also talks very casually without any seriousness to him. Sneha’s father does not approve of this but leaves decision to her. Even she tries to convince Sushanth but then he is adamant on living like that. Then Sneha asks Sushanth that he should take away those feelings of love from her heart since he was the one who started it all. Sushanth gets pricked and from then on starts his attempts to kill those feelings for Sneha. Is he successful or not forms the rest of the story.
Performances
 Sushanth looked trim and energetic during the dance sequences which was a good thing but then his expressions are restricted to just two or three and not more. Sneha Ullal was regular and did her glamorous part, she looked good. Geetha was also looking pretty and she has shown potential. Vennela Kishore did a neat job, Tanikella was effective, Charanraj was okay, Brahmanandam was not used to the fullest, Raghu Babu was hilarious, Shafi was good.
Technical aspects
The dialogues were not penned with strength and the script was not that effective. Screenplay was just okay and the music was good at few parts, the songs were alright and three numbers were good. Editing was alright, costumes and art department did their bit with skill. Cinematography was good at few angles but overall, it was not able to capture the foreign locales or the moments correctly. The pace of the movie was okay.
Director’s portrayal
 The director came up with an idea of twisted romance but then he was not able to narrate it convincingly. It must be said that the emotion in the romantic scenes was missing and the chemistry was not generated by him. Also, the comedy track could have been worked in a better way which would have filled the gaps. However, he must be appreciated for coming up with a new thought of removing the feelings of love from someone but he could have portrayed it better.
Critic’s view
The film has been made with decent technical values but then the content part should have been more streamlined. While the first half of the film goes with the regular elements of comedy and songs, it is just before the second half that the plot actually gets into shape and though the second half has also got some intense moments, the climax could have been more polished and could have caused some anxiety for the audience. The lack of consistent comedy is another factor that needed to be worked. Overall, the film would generate interest at few parts and keeps fluctuating on highs and lows. It appeals for youth audiences especially with second half for the emotional depth in it.
Verdict
Passable entertainer
