Plot

Cast
The insertion of Karrodu in the film induces warmth and comfort to the audience and makes return to the audience more the simple things that are almost taken for granted.
The performance of Poo Ramu as Seenaiah in this film is extraordinary to say the least. This includes feeling joy, satisfaction, fatigue and even pride.
It is one of the highlights of the film and the climax is indeed the most impressive section of the movie. Deepavali is such a film because the story is simple and the emotions that have been built in that last scene make one remember the movie much longer after it is over.
Poo Ramu’s characterisation of Seenaiah is the crux of Deepavali Many memories. When he later played the role of a grandfather in the late actor’s performance, it was unobtrusive and very warm, as it would obviously be a man who would go to any extent for his grandson.
Which is why, Ramu’s expressions and how he moves his body in relation to the scene is overwhelming most especially at the height of the film’s drama.
How Ramu embodied the character’s love, his resolve as well as her quiet strength is an indication of his acting skill. Poo Ramu has left his imprint on the film audiences and his efforts are well documented and especially in this case out ranks his peers.
The fact that he is able to project Seenaiah on screen makes sure that the character stays in the audience’s mind making Deepavali a right accessory to his glory.

The story is simple yet appealing and relevant to all age groups. One feels that there is only one’s life and family and one cannot even think of families without sociological concerns and effects.
The exemplary portrayal of Seenaiah by Poo Ramu is impressive and appealing making Deepavali a memorable film. Deepavali successful comes to an end with a good climax thanks to love, determination and hope.
With that, the story does not end all. As Deepavali is being brought to more and more people, there will be development in terms of how simple yet powerful storytelling can be.
