Almost everyone is good at heart which inturn forces us to concentrate on the budding love story. If you have closely observed Karunakaran’s films then you will realize that there are hardly any villains or grey shades in the character. It’s the little moments of joy which drive the story forward. There are a bunch of actors goofing around to have a jolly good time be it in Switzerland or Araku. ‘Darling’, as a film never takes itself too seriously. The rest of the story is about how Prabhas and Nandini meet and how they fall in love with each other. He forces Prabhas to accept his daughter’s proposal but before Prabhas accepts, he narrates the story of how he met Nandini. Dejected with this decision, Shraddha Das attempts suicide which irks his father (Mukesh Rishi). When his friend (Shraddha Das) proposes her love to him, Prabhas turns it down. Prabhas starts as Prabhas, a Generation Y punk who’s waiting for his childhood sweetheart Nandini (Kajal) to walk into his life once again.

It narrates the love story of how Prabhas meets his childhood sweetheart Nandini. The film starring Prabhas and Kajal is set in a world where everyone is good by nature. His latest film ‘Darling’ is yet another love story which has all the essential ingredients of what you expect from a Karunakaran’s film.

However, Karunakaran stuck to when he knew best and continued to make more love stories. Quite a few others continued to ape his style and technique and succeeded. In 1998 when A.Karunakaran, made ‘Tholi Prema’, he was described as a pioneer of a new wave in the genre of romance. Starring : Prabhas, Kajal Agarwal, Prabhu, Shraddha Das, M.S.Narayana, Ahuti Prasad and others.
