HAPPY DAYS MOVIE CHARACTERS FULL

All the masti, hungama, zing etc is interspersed. The first half establishes the characters and sets the pace of the film. Komalini Mukherjee is impressive in her cameo.

Any viewer may feel connected or relatable to the characters or the essence of college life portrayed.Д®ach character is so well etched with particular traits, temperament and characteristics so believable - a hallmark of Sekhar, who's casting is excellent. Sekhar is on familiar terrain and may even 'sound autobiographical' to some extent. Chandu and Madhu take a liking to each other, Tyson loves Sonia (a senior), Shankar loves Sangeeta who turns the tables on Shankar, Nikhil initially has a crush on the English teacher Shreya (Komalini Mukherjee) but later likes Apu.

Sekhar is indeed a good raconteur - his Anand and Godavari were simple stories well told. But it's here that Sekhar spins a perfect yarn deftly weaving a story with perfect characterisation. The storyline of Happy Days is very simple. Watching a Sekhar Kammula film is indeed sweet and refreshing - a whiff of fresh air which has permeated the celluloid horizon otherwise replete with mostly stereotypical and run-of-the-mill fare. The film is indeed a huge slice of college life - the days and years which are embedded in most minds.
