For a movie that relies entirely on its newbie lead pair and a contemporary support cast, with no help whatsoever from experienced character actors (who are usually seen hanging around in these films, to resuscitate the proceedings), SMS does pretty well for itself. And that is an impressive feat.
Siva Manasulo Sruthi is the kind of simple and simplistic romance that is aimed at the campus crowd, and that takes the box office more seriously than art. The Super Good Movies banner helps its cause, mounting the movie on a scale larger than it deserves.
