We have found the genius!

Have you ever felt that you were in a long pleasant dream and you never wanna come out of it!? Well Lucia is such a beautiful dream. A dream where the meaning of life is simplified to a statement "your small life is somebody's big dream". A complex story is marvelously narrated by Pawan Kumar. Spectacular cinematography by Nuni. Amazing acting by Satish Neenasam, Shruthi Hariharan and upon that stunning performance by Achyuth. I can't think of anybody else who could have managed it so well. Background score is magnificently done by Poornachandra Tejasvi and so are the songs. I don't really like songs in the middle of a movie as they take the story off the plot sometimes but here the songs doesn't interrupt anything and instead they be a part of the movie and carry it forward. I watched it with my friends on a weekend. There was too much hype already but i wanted to make sure whether it's worth it. Oh man..! it was more than any expectations i ever had on any movie. Sometimes i ask myself, how can someone think of such a confound story, succeed in such a breathtaking picturisation and narrate it in such an astonishing way. If Pawan Kumar can make such a movie in a budget of 100,000$ and a canon 5D camera (yeah you heard it right! canon 5D) then just imagine what he is capable of if he is given a chance. . a chance to change the way Indian movies are!! I enjoyed every bit of the movie,nothing more nothing less.. an almost perfect movie. . a wonderful journey. I was so happy that i watched such a movie. I cried at the end of the movie, not because it has some emotional bits in it but because of the happiness that it was not directed by Christopher Nolan but by our own Pawan Kumar.
