Bommarillu

World and International Narrative Cinema

Bommarillu, whose title means Toy House, is a 2006 Telugu-language romantic comedy family drama from India. It was the directorial debut of Bhaskar, who also co-wrote it, and it was produced by Dil Raju. Siddharth, Genelia and Prakash Raj lead the cast, with cinematography by Vijay C Chakravarthy, editing by Marthand K. Venkatesh and music by Devi Sri Prasad, whose soundtrack was well reviewed. The story centres on the bond between a father and his son, where the father's constant worry and interference in the young man's life breeds bitterness in the son. The film opened to Indian audiences on 9 August 2006, won several Filmfare Awards and other honours, and was among the highest grossing Telugu films of its year. Its success led to remakes in Tamil as Santosh Subramaniam in 2008, in Bengali as Bhalobasa Bhalobasa in 2008, in Odia as Dream Girl in 2009 and in Hindi as It's My Life in 2020.
