Madhu becomes emotional and tries to convince them that she can handle the situation.
HAPPY DAYS MOVIE DATE HOW TO
The troubled parents act maturely, discuss the issue, but also feel helpless in not knowing how to deal with it. The father doesn’t fly off the handle and thrash Madhu or create a scene with Chandu. However, the film handles the daughter-parent relationship with care and sensitivity. When Chandu falls in love with Madhu and wants to kiss her, the latter's father discovers his feelings in an unpleasant manner. The portrayal of their friendship - having lunch together, attending classes, studying during exams - are also close to reality. For example, in Kotha Bangaru Lokam, which released a year later in 2008 with the same lead, Varun Sandesh, though he studies Biology, Physics and Chemistry in Intermediate, he eventually becomes an engineer. When we say that Happy Days is true to life, we mean that few college stories are not given the same amount of care and research as this film. But also peeps into the less discussed parts of college life as well. The film tells stories of the evolution of friendship, love, betrayal and sacrifice, showing the good, bad and bitter experiences of college students. The film is meant to be a nostalgic glimpse of life for urban college students, one that many may recognise from their own experiences. While Sekhar has said that the film is not an autobiographical representation of his own college experience, he noted in interviews that it was deliberately shot at his alma mater, Chaitanya Bharati Institute of Technology (CBIT) as a tribute to the institution.
Aside from Shankar, all of them come from the same upper caste background, which helps them bond over quickly. In quick succession, Madhu (Tamannaah), Arjun aka Tyson (Rahul Haridas), Nikhil Siddharth (Rajesh), Appu (Gayatri Rao) and Shankar (Vamsi Krishna) become the film’s centre as a tight-knit group of friends. Happy Days is narrated and told from the perspective of the film’s protagonist Chandu, portrayed by Varun Sandesh in the actor’s Tollywood debut. It simultaneously gave former students a chance to reminisce about their college days, while perhaps giving somewhat unrealistic expectations for Intermediate students entering engineering colleges. Happy Days, which follows a group of friends in their college years, felt both real and refreshing. Earlier films set in colleges used the backdrop to tell dark and violent tales, such as Shiva, Ram Gopal Varma’s 1989 directorial debut, or college life was merely used as an afterthought for comic scenes. The Telugu film industry has a severe dearth of coming-of-age stories, particularly around the college experience.
