Jayam (transl. Victory) is a 2002 Indian Telugu-language romantic action drama film written, produced and directed by Teja under the banner Chitram Movies. The film stars Nithiin, Sadha (both in their debut) and Gopichand in the lead roles and music was composed by R. P. Patnaik.

Jayam received mixed reviews from critics with praise towards the cast performances and music, where it went on to become a critical and commercial Blockbuster Hit at the box office. It was remade by M. Raja in Tamil with the same title in 2003 with Sadha and Gopichand reprising their roles.

Plot

Venkataramana alias "Venky" is from a poor family who meets Sujatha at his college and falls in love with her. After many meetings, Sujatha falls in love with Venky. However, Sujatha's father learns about this from an astrologer where he fixes Sujatha's marriage with her cousin Raghu, a womanizer and rogue. Raghu falls in love with Sujatha at first sight, where he warns her to never fall or marry anyone. After her engagement, Sujatha meets Venky at the temple, where Raghu also arrives with his gang and thrashes Venky. Despite this, Venky gets determined and warns Raghu that he and Sujatha will get married and will take Sujatha at 7:00 am. Enraged, Raghu tells the family to complete the wedding. Sujatha goes into the room to change, but she is actually waiting for Venkat after learning about his message. Venkat and Sujatha escape before Raghu arrives. After an intense chase, Venky and Sujatha are cornered by Raghu and his men in the forest. Venky and Raghu challenge each other in an intense hand-to-hand combat, where Venky finally defeats Raghu. With Sujatha's father's approval, Venky and Sujatha get married in presence of Raghu and her family members.

Reception

Jayam received mixed reviews from critics with praise towards the cast performances (particularly Nithiin, Sadha and Gopichand) and music.

Critical reception

Jeevi of Idlebrain wrote "First half of the film would be liked by class people as the style of narration is very poetic. Second half would be liked by masses compared to first half as it has got good action scenes. Over all, it's an average film."[3][4] Arpan Panicker of Full Hyderabad wrote "The second half drags and looks silly at times. The fight scenes especially are quite undigestable. There is only so much credit you can attribute to a flag. Jayam turns out to be just an average flick at the end of the day."[5]
