Single Review – Sree Vishnu’s Youthful Comedy Offers Lighthearted Fun

Single, starring Sree Vishnu and directed by Caarthick Raju, is a lighthearted romantic comedy that resonates with today’s youth. Featuring relatable themes and situational humor, the film is an entertaining weekend watch—though it lacks emotional depth.
Plot Summary:
The story follows Vijay (Sree Vishnu), an insurance agent in his 30s, grappling with the pressures of remaining single. While he harbors feelings for Purva (Ketika Sharma), she doesn’t reciprocate. The twist arrives when Harini (Ivana), a much younger woman, proposes to him—only to be rejected. The film explores whom Vijay ultimately chooses and how.
Direction & Writing:
Caarthick Raju, known for Chaavu Kaburu Challaga, crafts a simple, relatable narrative centered on modern-day singlehood. While the film nails the comedy and pop culture references, it falls short emotionally. The first half drags at times with repetitive scenes, but the second half picks up with stronger humor and a satisfying ending that teases a potential sequel.
Performances:
Sree Vishnu delivers a solid performance, showcasing impeccable comic timing and expressive body language. His chemistry with Vennela Kishore is a standout, providing many laugh-out-loud moments. Kishore, in a substantial role after a long time, adds significant value with his signature wit.
Ivana makes a decent Telugu debut, though her character lacks development. Ketika Sharma surprises with a more layered role and gives a commendable performance. Supporting actors perform adequately within the film’s comedic tone.
Technical Aspects:
Music: Vishal Chandrasekhar’s soundtrack is underwhelming, with no memorable songs.
Cinematography & Production: The visuals and production quality are strong, adding polish to the film’s overall look.
Editing: The film could have benefitted from tighter editing, especially in the first half.
Verdict:
Single is a time-pass comedy made purely for laughs. While it doesn’t offer emotional depth or dramatic heft, its youthful energy, pop culture humor, and relatable premise make it an enjoyable watch—especially for younger audiences.
