A brief look at two Barry Jenkins films that have established him as one of the greatest filmmakers of our time.
Ammayilu Abbayilu
Well Ammayilu Abbayilu is just that and more. The story revolves around Vara Prasad( Vijay Sai) a four foot something midget with a repulsive nasal drawl and equally repulsive chest hair.(His dad has the same and he is proud of how the genetic transfer happened). Vara Prasad is in love with the sexiest girl in the neighborhood, Manju(Vidya). But Manju falls in love with a new boy who moves into the neighborhood, Sanjay(Mohit). Sanjay meanwhile has his eyes set on another girl in the neighborhood, Anju(Debina). Unfortunately Anju is engaged to be married to Rakesh(Sonu Sood). Vara Prasad has no other option but to settle for wannabe witch Ranjani(Swapna Madhuri). The story goes through many a romantic twist and turn before all the characters finally get what they want and the bad guys what they deserve
