muLlapooDi used to write that it is very easy giving messages through the
movies and most of the writers do that very often and do not let an
opportunity go waste. I used to entertain a few of my friends with some of
them, at times with my own too. Here are some of such expressions from
telugu movies, just from the top of my mind. They may be 'great, good,
romantic, funny, silly and stupid'. Add to the list, if you remember any
such expressions.

sineemaa expressions:
