“Ninne Premistha,” a pivotal film in Srikanth’s career, showcased his versatility by seamlessly blending entertainment with emotional depth. In the late 90s and early 2000s, Srikanth earned acclaim as a family star, contributing to the Telugu Film Industry’s success. The film, directed by R.R. Shinde and produced by R.B. Choudhary under Super Good Films, stands out for its unique narrative and notable cast.
The storyline revolves around Srikanth’s character, who, along with Rajendra Prasad, ventures into a village to work in a bank and provide loans to the villagers. The first half unfolds with a touch of humor and romance as Srikanth falls in love with the enigmatic Soundarya, who doesn’t speak until the interval but captivates with her singing. However, a surprising twist in the climax reveals that Soundarya was not romantically inclined towards Srikanth, adding complexity to the plot.
The second half takes an emotional turn with the introduction of Yuvasamrat Akkineni Nagarjuna in an extended cameo. His tragic end and the revelation that his eyes were transplanted to Srikanth, who subsequently loses his sight in an accident, add a poignant layer to the narrative. The film explores Srikanth’s struggle to convince Soundarya, whose focus remains on Nagarjuna’s eyes that now reside in him.
The unusual and emotional storyline is complemented by the impactful music of S.A. Rajkumar, making it a significant aspect of the film’s success. Nagarjuna’s charismatic presence and well-shot scenes contributed to the movie’s broader appeal, resonating with both his fan base and the general audience. The film concludes on an open note, leaving the fate of the central characters hanging and fostering anticipation for a potential reunion. “Ninne Premistha” thus stands as a unique blend of entertainment, emotion, and musical brilliance in the realm of Telugu cinema.
