Allu Sirish and Regina Cassandra New Telugu Film Kotha Janta Movie Review:

Director Maruthi, who is known for his youth entertainers, has teamed with young actor Allu Sirish for his latest directorial venture Kotha Janta, which has released in theatres worldwide today (April 30). Besides receiving critical acclaim, all his previous movies have been big hits at the Box Office. Now, he has once again made sure that his latest release Kotha Janta will also impress the film goers in Andhra Pradesh.

Story:

Programme director Sirish (Allu Sirish) and Creative director Suvarna (Regina Cassandra) are selfish individuals, who team up to make a new programme Kotha Janta to increase TRP of Y Channel. While they are working together, they start feeling an emotional bond between them. Daring Sirish proposes Suvarna, but an expected twists splits them and makes them rivals. What happens next will form the crux of the story.

Artists Performance:

As a selfish guy, Allu Sirish has delivered good performance in Kotha Janta. He has shown lot of maturity and improvements in his acting when compared to his debut film Gouravam. As his partner, Regina Cassandra has done her best. She wins the heart of viewers with her glamour. Saptagiri has tried his best to tickle the funny bones of audience. Madhurima's item number is good. Others have also done justice their respective roles.

Technical and Other Departments:

Kotha Janta has rich production values and JB's music is main attraction in the technical front. His songs and background score are big assets of the film. Richard Prasad's picturisation is another big strength of the film. His camera work in song sequences is superb. Selection of beautiful locales and costume is commendable. Ashok Kuruba's editing is also good, but he could have chopped some boring scenes in the second half of the film.

Movie Analysis:

Kotha Janta is a romantic comedy entertainer with all commercial elements to woo mass audience. Allu Sirish's performance is one of the big highlights in it. Maruthi's interesting story, screenplay and punch lines, Regina Cassandra's glamour, Saptagiri's comedy timing, JB's trendy music and Richard Prasad's beautiful cinematography are other attractions in the movie. The dragging and boring narration in the second half is its one big drawback.Maruthi has taken a unique concept for Kotha Janta and tried his best to execute it on screeb with some interesting twists and turns. The story is all about what happens when a selfish boy and girl fall in love with each other. The director has done brilliant screenplay and made it a colourful romance drama.The movie Kotha Janta opens with the funny introduction of the hero and heroine's selfish childhood days. The first half of the film has a racy and engaging narration. Allu Sirish and Regina's romance and Sapthagiri's hilarious comedy keep you engaged and entertained in this portion. Following the break up of lovers before the interval bang, the movie hits a rough patch and the narration goes very slow in the second half. Though the climax is predictable, it is interesting.

Final View:

Overall, Kotha Janta is another youthful and colourful entertainer from director Maruthi. Allu Sirish, Regina Cassandra and Saptagiri rock you with their performances. The movie can be a good entertainer for family audience this weekend.

ANAMIKA MOVIE REVIEW

Film: Anaamika(Telugu, 2014)
Cast: Nayanathara, Vaibhav, Harshavardhan Rane, Pasupathi and others
Music: M M Keeravani
Lyrics: Seetharama Shastry
Cinematography: Vijay C Kumar

Nayanthara New Telugu Film Anaamika Movie Review:

Prior its release, Telugu movie Anamika has garnered huge positive buzz as it is the remake of hit Hindi suspense thriller Kahaani starring Vidya Balan. Critically-acclaimed director Sekhar Kammula and popular South Indian actress Nayantara's association with this project has added more to the curiosity of the viewers. Released in theatres today, the movie manages to live up to the audiences' expectations.

Story:

Anaamika (Nayanatara) lands in Hyderabad to find the whereabouts of her now missing husband Ajay Shastri (Harshavardhan Rane), a software employee. The police to whom she complains shows cold shoulder, but Parthasarathy (Vaibhav) is an exception.  He goes out of his way and some times beyond the call of his duty to help the hapless woman trace her husband. 
Does she find her husband?  What is the role of the police in it?  Who is Ajay Shastri and what is the role of Milind Damji in his life?  Why is the Home Minister (Naresh) on tenterhooks?  Does Anaamika have the ability to rock the boat by getting in possession something that can shake the nation?

Artists Performance:

Nayanatara is seen in an author-backed role. She is convincing when she sobs, she is good when she is assertive. She has portrayed various emotions well. This is quite challenge for her in a role that was done by Vidya Balan. Nayanatara has succeeded. Pasupathy makes an impact and even brings out a smile or two in us. Vaibhav emotes more and talks less.  He, again, fits the bill.  Harshavardhan Rane has brief role. Naresh is just about ok.

Technical and Other Departments:

On the technical front, it is senior music director MM Keeravani whose work gets noticed first. With his effective background score, he lifts to the movie in many sequences.  The two songs coalesce with the film and we do not know when they come and go. Addamlo Ammayi song that come as the end credits roll is too good.

Cinematography is neat. Vijay C Kumar has captured the old city of Hyderabad well. Although the film is not lengthy, the film has slow pace for a thriller. Editor Marthand Venkatesh should have fastened the pace in the first half. Art work is good.
As writer and director, Sekhar Kammula this is quite different genre. His strength has been lighthearted urbane movies. Although, the genre is new to him, he has managed to pull off.

Movie Analysis:

First things first.  By accepting the challenge of adaptation of a one-woman narrative like Kahaani, Shekar Kammula has proven himself to be a filmmaker who is game for challenges. For the first time in his bright career, he has remade a film. Anaamika is not exact remake of Bollywood film, Kaahani. Director Sekhar Kammula and veteran writer Yandamuri Veerendranath has taken the basic plot from the movie and have told in a different manner. So it is more of adaptation than the remake.

Besides taking some amount of creative liberty with the original plot, Kammula doesn't violate the soul of the original. The essence of the original is not harmed. But here in Anaamika, the heroine is not seen with baby bump unlike the original. Yet, Nayanatara's character surprises us with her perseverance, ability to challenge the authority of the cops and so on.  She breaks down when she is alone, does a tear jerker in the presence of Vaibhav, but she is more than any of these.
The film starts off on a slow note. Entire first half lacks mojo but as the film grows in tempo, it makes us root for it.  Second half of the film is truly engrossing. And the climax is very good. The best moments in the film come post interval.

Final View:

A serious film and has topical subject, Anaamika is a nice thriller. Although it doesn't look as novel as the original movie, this is fairly good adaptation of Kaahani by Sekhar Kammula. Post interval sequences work out so well. For those who have not seen Kahaani, surely Anaamika will be a treat.

CHANDAMAMA KATHALU MOVIE REVIEW

Film: Chandamama Kathalu(Telugu, 2014)
Cast: Lakshmi Manchu, Kishore, Naresh, Aamani, Krishnudu, Chaitanya Krishna, Abhijeet P, Naga Shaurya, Vennela Kishore, Amitha Rao, Richa Panai, Shamili Agarwal, Krishneswara Rao, Prithvi Raj, Kondavalasa, Surekha Vani
Music: Mickey J Meyer
Cinematography: Suresh Ragutu
Editing by: Dharmendra Kakarala

Release date: April 25, 2014
Watched Theater:Harihar Cinema's, Guntur
Rating : 2.75 / 5

Manchu Lakshmi and Others New Telugu Film Chandamama Kathalu Movie Review:

In an anthology film with eight stories, some are interesting, some are touchy, and some are not so interesting. Few sequences are very creative, few are routine. Quite a few scenes are illogical too. But Praveen Sattaru has tried to present a different movie with Chandamama Kathalu although anthology films are new to Telugu audiences.

Must say it is kind of novel effort. A writer narrating his stories, and they are unfolding on screen with an unusual end is novel to Telugu cinema. Also I stress that better handling of some stories would have made a lot of difference.

Story:

Chandamama Kathalu is an anthology of eight individual stories. People involved in these eight stories are Venkateswara Rao (Krishnudu) - a obese, Krishneswar Rao - an aspirational beggar, Lisa Smith (Lakshmi Manchu) - a falling model, Saritha (Aamani) - a widow and Mohan (Naresh) - Saritha's Ex-boy friend, Saradhi (Kishore) - a widower, Raghu (Chaitanya Krishna) - a college going guy, Ashraf (Abhijeet) - who runs a Kirana Store and Raghu (Naga Shaurya) - an accidental husband.

Artists Performance:

Of all the actors, it is Krishneswara Rao in the role of a beggar that makes strong impact. He is natural. Lakshmi Prasanna is suited well in the role of model. Kishore is another actor who leaves his mark. Naresh and Aamani in the roles of aged lovers are apt. Chaitanya Krishna gets noticed with his short role. Richa Panai, Abhijeet Pandla and Shamili Agarwal are okay.

Technical and Other Departments:

Of the music, the title song is good and haunting. Cinematography by Suresh is first rate. In fact, he has shown Hyderabad city in rather different light. Anthology films need effective editing and Dharmendra has done the job well. He should have trimmed some unnecessary scenes in the first half though.

Writer and director Praveen Sattaru proves that he has penchant for trying something different. He has shown his mark in many scenes. If he had focused on lesser characters with better etched out characters and given emotional touch to some sequences, Chandamama Kathalu would have a been a quite good movie.

Movie Analysis:

What is interesting in this anthology of the movie is the way the writer-director Praveen Sattaru has given a twist in the end. Many people may not get the final twist but the underlying theme is that there is no bigger creator/writer than the God. In fact the film's biggest strength is the final moments despite some stories fail to create any interest. Yes, first half of the movie moves at snail pace.

The beggar’s episode and the ending moments are the best. As I mentioned earlier, the premise is good but Praveen Sattaru has not etched the characters properly. The Krishnudu story is  silly. Nobody worries today if one doesn't get married at the age of 30. The story of Lisa Smith, the model, hardly has any novelty.

Final View:

Chandamama Kathalu is an anthology film with eight stories. Has its own moments, some interesting episodes too. But it is burdened with too many stories and some dull sequences.

Producer : Sambasiva Rao
Written by : Anand Ravi

Nara Rohit and Shubra Aiyappa New Telugu Film Prathinidhi Movie Review:

Nara Rohit, who is the Nephew of Nara Chandrababu Naidu, made his acting debut with hit film Banam and later proved his mettle as a commercial hero with the movie Solo. Fourteen months after the release of his last outing Okkadine, this young and talented actor is back with his next film Prathinidhi, which has released in theatres today (April 25). The trailer of the film has created lot of positive buzz, prior its release.

Story:

Manchodu Srinu (Nara Rohit) is a commoner who is vexed with the flawed political system. He decides to repair it and kidnaps the AP Chief Minister with the help of a minister's son. Unlike normal kidnappers, Srinu makes peculiar demands which expose the flaws in the system. He tries to make amends to those flaws with his demands. There occurs a twist towards the end of the film and it has to be watched on screen.

Artists Performance:

As Prathinidhi, Nara Rohit has delivered wonderful performance and he is the showman in the film. When looked at his previous movies, he has improved his acting in Prathinidhi. He will impress the viewers with his dialogue diction. Shubra Ayyappa has less scope and she has failed to use the available space to impress the viewers. Kota Srinivasa Rao, Posani, Sri Vishnu, Ravi Prakash and Jayaprakash Reddy have done their job well and their performances are the big assets of the film.

Technical and Other Departments:

Prathinidhi has decent production values and Sai Karthik's music is the main attraction in the technical front. His background score elevates several scenes. Chitti Babu's cinematography is another big strength of the film. The dialogues written by Prashanth Mandava are also good and among big assets of the movie. Nandhamuri Hari's editing is commendable.

Movie Analysis:

Prathinidhi is a political thriller with a few commercial ingredients. Nara Rohit's sterling performance is the main highlight in the film. Anand Ravi's interesting story, Prashanth Mandava's arresting narration and dialogues, Sai Karthik's music and Chitti Babu's camera work are other attractions of the film. The lack of entertainment quotient, poor execution of the script and a few illogical scenes are its drawbacks.Anand Ravi has written an innovative story for Prathinidhi and its concept is quite fresh and unique. The plot is based on a common man's struggle against the corrupt system. Director Prashanth Mandava has done a good screenplay out of this story and he has very good grip on the narration. But he seems to have taken certain things for granted. Especially, he has dealt the scene of kidnapping of the CM very lightly. He should have given it a more realistic touch.

Final View:

Finally, Prathinidhi ends up as an average. The film suffers due to the inexperience of a debut director lest it should be a super hit. The movie may sell well in the political heat of the state provided the publicity is good.

Allu Arjun and Shruthi Haasan New Telugu Film Race Gurram Movie Review:

Race Gurram is one of the most-talked about and highly-anticipated Telugu movies of 2014. The film has been creating positive buzz in the media, ever since it hit the floors. The promos of the film have soared up the viewers' expectations to the sky high. Released in theatres across the globe today (April 11), the movie has been receiving positive response from film goers. Superb performances and rich production values are its big assets.

Story:

Ram (Shaam) and Lucky (Allu Arjun) are brothers but both have sibling rivalry from childhood. Ram grows up to be an honest police officer, while Lucky turns out to be mischievous youth. Lucky completes his studies and hoping to go to USA for a job. He meets Spandana (Shruti) who is trained to control her emotions by her father (Prakash Raj). After some funny initial encounters, they get along well and fall in love. Meanwhile, there is a strong rowdy Siva Reddy (Ravi Kishan) who wants to be minister while Ram vows to prove that he is involved in many crimes. This leads to rift between them. Siva Reddy hatches a plan to kill Ram but wrongly attacks on Lucky. Then Lucky takes the matter on his hand to save his brother and his family.

Artists Performance:

Allu Arjun comes up with a fabulous performance as a racy youngster, chivalrous boyfriend and a family man. He has changed dialogue modulation and its excellent. His mannerisms and the way he says ‘daevudaa’ is cute. His dances are superb and his performance in action sequences is extraordinary. He matched the comedy timing of Brahmanandam in combination scenes. This film has given him excellent scope to give an allround performance.

Shruti Haasan plays the role of an unemotional and unresponsive girl who is transformed to a normal one. She is pretty good. Shaam is extremely fit as a cop and executed his role with finesse. Bhojpuri star Ravi Kishan played the role of main villain. He is good, but his characterization is eccentric. Prakash Raj plays a comical role with limited screen time. Posani Kishna Murali comes up with another entertaining performance. Brahmanandam is extremely good as ‘Kill Bill Pandey’ - a special cop. His entrance and screen presence creates a roller coaster ride of entertainment. Saloni plays love interest of Shaam. Ali does the role of fake doctor effectively again after Kick film. Jaya Prakash Reddy is good as chief cop. MS Narayana plays a delightful role in the first half.

Technical and Other Departments:

The basic story is about two brothers who fight with each other realizing the brotherhood when pitted against a baddie. The writer has added all possible commercial angles to the story. The screenplay is good in the second half. All characterizations in the film are good except for that of villain which is highly eccentric. Director Surender Reddy has made sure that he didn’t miss popular commercial elements in the movie, at the same time his technical standards are in tact. There are ups and lows in the narration, but he has made sure that he ended the film on a high note. It’s a good comeback for Surender Reddy.

Cinematography by Manoj Paramahamsa is of top notch quality. Good color grading and nice visual effects added glitz to the visuals. Songs scored by SS Thaman are alright. But the background score in second half is very good (especially Allu Arjun’s bike entrance in a new avatar towards climax). Cinema Choopista is my favorite song. On the visuals front, I liked Boochade and Down Down. Picturization and art direction for these two songs is excellent. The placement of first two songs in second half is not good. But the title track towards climax is excellently shot. Art direction by Narayana Reddy deserves a special mention. Dialogues by Deepak Raj - Vikram Siri are very good and mostly entertaining. All action sequences are stylishly choreographed by Ram - Laxman. Editing by Gowtam Raju is fine. Production values by Nallamalupu Srinivas (Bujji) and Dr. Venkateswara Rao are of high standards.

Movie Analysis:
Initial half of the first half is entertaining. Interval fight is pretty heavy. Second half is neatly done. The last 20 minutes of the film which features Brahmanandam gives a high. Plus points of the movie are Allu Arjun, Brahmanandam, Cinematography, second half screenplay, all round orientation and production values. On the flip side, eccentric villain characterization and uneven tempo of the film should have been taken care of. On a whole, Race Gurram with it’s allround commercial elements should do well at box office! And watch out for Brahmi as ‘kill bill pandey’!

Final View:

Racegurram is regular commercial entertainer with dose of comedy in the second half. Allu Arjun and Kill Bill Pandey steal the show.

HRUDAYA KALEYAM MOVIE REVIEW

Film: Hrudaya Kaleyam (Telugu, 2014)
Cast: Sampoornesh Babu, Kavya kumar, Ishika singh, Mahesh Katti, Guru Charan & Ajay etc

Banner: Amrutha productions & VSS Creations
Art: Murthy
Stunts: Stunt Jashua
Editor: Karthika Srinivas

Rating: 3 / 5

Sampoornesh Babu New Telugu Film Hrudaya Kaleyam Movie Review:

Director Steven Shankar's latest directorial venture Hrudaya Kaleyam is a comedy action entertainer movie, which has hit the marquee today (April 4). Burning Star Sampoornesh Babu and Ishika Singh have played the lead roles in the film, which has been produced by Sai Rajesh Neelam under the banner of Amrutha Productions. RK has scored music for the songs, while Srikanth Pendyala has composed the background score.

Story:

Sampoornesh Babu (Sampoornesh Babu) is a thief who steals various items from electronic shops and provisional stores. A battalion of cops headed by Bhairav Rathore (Mahesh Kathi) are searching for this mysterious thief who leaves no clues. A dangerous looking Black Mamba is frantically searching for Sampoornesh Babu. The rest of the story is all about why Sampoornesh Babu is stealing and what happens when cops catches him.

Artists Performance:

Sampoornesh Babu has funny looks. But those funny looks are not enough. He needs a good characterization and a director who can project him well. The image and following created for Sampoornesh Babu in social media has so much influenced the viewers that whatever he does on screen turned out into a great performance. This film will create a new genre and Sampoornesh Babu should nurture his career by acting selectively in films where the director can produce magic with him. If he accepts a couple of mediocre projects, he will be forgotten as hero. He has the special talent of dancing in a funny way as well as in a professional style as well.
New actress Kavya Kumar has a bit of features of actress Roja (pouting lips and similar eye/eyebrows). She does a decent job and her dubbing is cute. Kathi Mahesh is impressive as a short and funny police commissioner Bhairav who has a thing for smelling. Guru Charan played the role of doctor. Most of the actors in the film are new. Ishika Singh did a glamorous role.

Technical and Other Departments:

Most of the writers for commercial films write with a purpose of making a great film and they end up delivering illogical film. This story takes a potshot at those serious shot films. Hence the writer has deliberately has written illogical scenes and silly dialogues. And they worked amazingly on the screen with right characterization and with the casting of Sampoornesh Babu. Writing such deliberate illogical story and convincing it is very difficult for any director. First timer Sai Rajesh (Steven Shankar) succeeds as a writer first and then as a director. There are timely and well intended references to films like Samarasimha Reddy (cop saluting hero), Daddy (hero’s profession in flashback), Bommarillu (love episodes), Black Mamba (Kill Bill) etc. The pre-climax episodes appear bizarre, but is followed up with a nice climax. The director has also given right explanation why this movie is titled ‘Hrudaya Kaleyam’ and why Sampoornesh Babu is called ‘burning star’. The statutory warnings that come at bottom of screen are creative.

The major asset of the film fun dialogues written by the director himself. There are several witty liners like ‘Thalam Thailand vaadu cheste, danni baddhalu kotte brain bharateeyudidi”, “Aakarshana bed room ki velte teeripotundi, kaani prema smasanam varaku venta vuntundi’, “Snehithudante evaru? Snehitudu kathi tho podisthe, Naa snehithudu naa pottalo katthi dachukunnadu ani cheptharaa” etc. Music and background score by RK is good. Most of the songs have ample scope for Sampoo dances. Cinematography by Chiranjeevi is decent compared to the limited resources budget allows. The effects used for hero introduction and build-up shots are good. Stunts composed by Stunt Joshua are effective. Editing by Karthika Srinivas is fine. Producer and director Sai Rajesh should explore making this a franchize series as it’s a new genre and will become a popular genre in years to come.

Movie Analysis:

Hrudaya Kaleyam is first straight film in Telugu in this genre (Sudigaadu was little similar, but was a remake). One has to be tuned to Sampoornesh Babu and Hrudaya Kaleyam teasers in order to enjoy the film to fullest. The theater I have seen (INOX, GVK) is full with people who came to theaters after getting impressed with trailers. They started chanting Sampoo name and going through the motions of hero throughout. Few of them dances in the songs and a few of them jumped out of chairs in the climax. Hrudaya Kaleyam is a film that should be watched in theater to enjoy it because the shouts and chants of fellow moviegoers are as entertaining as the content on the screen.

Final View:

Watch it on a big screen and watch it with crowds. If you liked the trailers of Hrudaya Kaleyam, it’s a must watch film for you in theater!

ROWDY MOVIE REVIEW

Film: Rowdy(Telugu,2014)

Dialogues: Gangothri Vishwanath
Cinematography: Satish Mutyala
Music: Sai Karthik
Produced by: R. Vijay Kumar, P. Gajendra Naidu, M. Parthasarathi Naidu
Written and directed by: Ram Gopal Varma
Release date: April 4, 2014

Rating: 2.75 / 5

Mohan Babu & Vishnu New Telugu Film Rowdy Movie Review:

Rowdy has been creating positive buzz in the media, ever since Ram Gopal Varma launched it. In addition, its promos have not only garnered great response from fans, but also soared up the movie lovers' expectations to the sky high. The movie, which has released in theatres across Telangana and Seemandhra today (April 4), will not disappoint the audience from what they have been hearing about this film.

Story:

Rowdy is set in Rayalaseema region. A faction leader in Seema is revered by his people as Annagaaru (Mohan Babu). He has two sons - elder son Bhushan (Kishore) and younger son Krishna (Vishnu). Bhushan is full of vices, while Krishna is upright guy like his father. A rival group hatches a plan to kill Annagaaru as he is against the Nandavaram project. The contractors of Nandavaram project attack Annagaaru but he survives. Rest of the film is how younger son takes on the rival group.

Artists Performance:
Mohan Babu comes up with natural performance and controlled dialogue delivery. This film will become a good addition to his portfolio. Mohan Babu shows his conviction as an actor and excels with natural performance. The way he pronounces respect as ‘raspect’ is superb. Vishnu did a role that has no heroism in first half, but rises to the occasion from interval. He impressed with controlled dialogue delivery and subtle performance. Shanvi has a limited role and does justice. Jayasudha is nice. Kishore is very good as a bad son. Paruchuri Venkateswara Rao did a vital role and he is satisfactory. Tanikella Bharani’s vedantham dialogues and freezing expression after each of those dialogues didn’t workout. Ravi Babu is excellent as cop. Gajendra Naidu (one of the producers of the film) did a role of hero’s follower and he is pretty good.

Technical and Other Departments:

The basic story and plot of remind us of RGV’s Sarkar which is inspired by Godfather. The initial scene of hero helping a poor man and the hospital episodes remind us of Godfather. Ram Gopal Varma has concentrated on building family bonding at one end and has shown fights and violent attacks parallelly. The twist that comes towards end of the film is also good. However, the tempo in second half should have been more gripping.
Dialogues by Gangothri Vishwanadh are apt. Cinematography by Satish Muthyala is good. Ram Gopal Varma who started using weird angles/shots from Rann film has made sure that camera work is proper and traditional in Rowdy. Warm tone to the visuals added to the feel of the movie. Songs and background music by Sai Karthik is in Ram Gopal Varma’s style. Stunts composed by Ram Sunkara are fiery though a lot of violent at times. New producers should be commended for making a film with a realistic tone to it.

Movie Analysis:

Mohan Babu is a superb actor. After M Dharmaraju MA and Rayalaseema Ramanna Chowdary, this is the most compelling character he has done in his career. It took a director of Ram Gopal Varma calibre to present Mohan Babu in natural avatar. Plus points of the film are Mohan Babu, Vishnu Manchu, and their characterizations. On the flipside a toned-down violence and a compelling second half would have made the movie more universal. On a whole, Rowdy is a special film that adds a feather to the cap of Mohan Babu.

Final View:

Rowdy shows us that Ram Gopal Varma is not tired of telling us  Godfather again and again. This film is a remix of his Sarkar and Sarkar Raj, only Mohan Babu's performance is saving grace. Rest gives you nothing but déjà vu feeling.

Balakrishna and Jagapathi Babu New Telugu Film Legend Movie Review:

Almost two years after the release of Srimannarayana, Nandamuri Balakrishna has made a grand comeback with his latest movie Legend, which has hit the screens across the globe today (March 28). The actor has teamed up with director Boyapati Srinu, who has earlier given him a big break with Blockbuster film Simha. The duo have together made sure that they rock the viewers again.

Story:

Film starts off with the story of a goon like politician Jitendra (Jagapathi Babu). He kills the village head (Suman) in Vishakapatnam. Years later, village head's younger son Krishna grows up to be a businessman in Dubai. There he falls in love with an Indian beauty Sneha (Sonal Chauhan). To marry her, he comes down to India to her granny's house in Vishakapatnam He accidentally gets involved in a fight with Jitendra's son. Few days later, Jitendra's son is killed and the father thinks that it was Krishna who was behind the killing When Jitendra shoots Krishna, enters his older brother Jayadev (Balakrishna). Now we are pushed into flashback. Jayadev like his father stands for people takes on Jitendra who is now dreaming to become CM. When his wife (Radhika Apte) is killed by Jitendra, he goes all out to kill him.

Artists Performance:

Bala Krishna has a powerful dialogue delivery and ferocious screen presence while doing serious and righteous characters. He has shown it to the maximum extent in Simha film. He follows it with his performance in Legend film. The dialogues written by Ratnam aided the characterization. He is excellent in fights.
It’s a big gamble for Jagapathi Babu who has an image of a family hero to do a villain role - that’s too in a mass film starring a massive hero Bala Krishna. His gamble paid off and he has done complete justice to his role as an antagonist. His character has two timelines and he has changed his dialogue modulation for these two time frames. His get-up with beard has suited him very well.
Radhika Apte is very good with traditional looks as female lead for Jai Dev character. Veena Ghantasala’s dubbing is nice. Sonal Chauhan looks glamorous and has a few fun scenes with Brahmanandam in the first half. Since it’s a joint family for the hero, there is a huge casting of character artists. Brahmanandam has good screen presence in the first half of the movie.

Technical and Other Departments:

The basic story is about a righteous man standing for his people against all odds. Boyapati Seenu understands the strengths of Bala Krishna and knows how to use them effectively. Like in Simha, Boyapati Seenu projects Bala Krishna’s strengths (great dialogue delivery and terrific screen presence) in the right way. Some of the scenes are of the film are exceptionally handled. However, he should have come up with a gripping screenplay. There is a bit of confusion regarding two characters in the beginning part of flashback.
Dialogues written by M Ratnam are highlight of the movie. He has written powerful political as well as social-responsibility dialogues in the film. Devi Sri Prasad composes music that suits Bala Krishna’s style. Cinematography by C Ram Prasad is good. Editing by Kotagiri Venkateswara Rao is fine. Fights composed by Ram - Laxman and Kanal Kannan are being liked by masses. Producers (14 Reels and Vaarahi) who are great fans of legend NTR has done their part well in making a film with Bala Krishna that appeals to all the fans.

Movie Analysis:

First half of the film is okay. Interval bang is good. Second half has powerful moments and emotionally charged scenes. Plus points of the film are Bala Krishna’s ferocious performance (as Jai Dev) and powerful dialogues written by M Ratnam. On the flip side, there is a lot of bloodshed. On a whole, Legend is a feast for fans and will be liked by masses.

Final View:

Legend is made for Balakrishna's fans and intended to get political mileage. Full of punch dialogues with beaten to death script. Balakrishna's screen presence and his dialogue delivery is highlight. Regular mass masala movie.

BHADRAM MOVIE REVIEW

Film: Bhadram (Telugu, 2014)
Cast: Ashok Selvan, Janani Iyer, Kaali, Pradeep Iyer, Jayaprakash, Jayakumar
Music: Nivas K Prasanna
Cinematography: Dinesh Krishnan
Editor: Leo John Paul
Producer: Good Friends & B Rama Krishna Reddy
Story, screenplay and directed by: P Ramesh
Release date: 21 March 2014
Watched Theater: Siva A/c, Guntur
Rating:3 / 5

Ashok Selvan and Janani Iyer New Telugu Film Bhadram Movie Review:

The much-hyped Telugu movie Bhadram, which has hit the screens across Andhra Pradesh, is the dubbed version of the Tamil film Thegidi starring Ashok Selvan and Janani Iyer in the lead roles. Ashok, who has impressed Telugu audience with his performance in Pizza 2, will once again rock the viewers with this murder mystery film, which has hit the screens in the state today (March 21).

Story:

Fresh out of college, Venu is recruited by a detective agency. Venu's passion is to become a detective as he has got good observation and analytical skills coupled with patience. His job is to do surveillance and shadowing on his subjects and give a detailed report on them. He meets Madhu (Janani Iyer) in an odd situation and she becomes his next subject. He starts falling in love with her. He realizes that all his subjects are getting killed in mysterious circumstances. The rest of the story is all about how he changes the mystery and protects his love in the process.

Artists Performance:

Ashok Selvan who had a unidimensional character in Pizza 2: The Villa, has given fabulous performance. The way he emotes in scenes which involve the conflict of being a lover and being a secret investigator is perfectly done. Big-eyed Janani Iyer suited the role well. Kaali provides ample humor as cook-friend of hero. Jayaprakash, Jayakumar and Pradeep Iyer are aptly cast.

Techincal and Other Departments:

It’s a screenplay based scripts that revolves around ‘whodunit’ concept. There is a nice conflict of profession (job) vs passion (love) for hero character. These two aspects whodunit investigative approach intertwined with girlfriend/job conflict makes the film interesting. Since it’s an investigative film, a lot of research is done and detailing is taken care of. Director P Ramesh does a nice job both as a director and screenplay writer. He reveals the identity of killer just after interval. But there is a lot more to it and director solves the puzzle systematically as the climax approaches. 
Cinematography by Dinesh Krishnan is good. Background music by Nivas K Prasanna helps in establishing thrills and emotions at right moments. Writing dialogues for dubbing films is a difficult task and the dialogue writer does a decent job. Editing is fine. New banner Shreyas Media done good job in dubbing and promoting the film in association with other banners. However, they should have taken care of showing Telugu newspaper clippings in place of Tamil newspaper clippings in most of scenes.

Movie Analysis:

Movies starts off in an interesting way. The romance-establishment part of it didn’t go well. However, the murder mysteries keep you engaged. The second half is interesting as the puzzle gets unfolded. Plus points of the films are suspense elements, author-backed roles and fully-baked script. I have also liked graphic-style title cards design. On the flip side, the way protagonist behave in crime scenes (without taking precautions as he could become the suspect as he leaves trail) is amateurish. On a whole, you can throw caution (Bhadram) to the wind and may watch Bhadram safely (Bhadramga)!

Final View:

Bhadram is a neat thriller. Has some engrossing moments but with predictable penultimate scenes, it ends up more like a well-made CID TV episode. Yet, Bhadram is better than Villa 2 Pizza, that came from the same stable.

Editing: Dharmendra Kakarla
Action: Ram-Lakshman
Banner: Guru Films

Rating:2.75 / 5

Navadeep and Swathi New Telugu Film Bangaru Kodipetta Movie Review:

Telugu actors Navdeep and Swati Reddy have made a grand comeback with Guru Films' debut film Bangaru Kodipetta, which has hit the marque today (March 7). The title of the movie has created lot of curiosity among film goers as it has been named after the super-hit song of Chiranjeevi's Gharana Mogudu. Having a fresh storyline, the flick is a good masala entertainer that will impress Telugu audience.

Story:

The story of Bangaru Kodipetta starts off with a shootout when Vamsi (Navadeep) accidentally fires his gun at a guy in his car on highway. When he steps out from his car, a speeding vehicle runs over him. Then the story starts revolving who Vamsi is, and the other person is.
In a linear format the story goes like this… Bhanumati (Colors Swathi) works at an energy drink company. She is in dire need of money and comes to know that a truck will be coming to Hyderabad from Bangalore carrying gold bars. She hatches a plan to steal them with her friend Vamsi (Navadeep), who has a past history as a petty thief. A Pizza delivery boy who came to Hyderabad to become hero and a rich farmer in Bheemavaram are interlinked with their story. What happens next is the rest of the drama.

Artists Performance:

Navadeep is a fine actor who is not getting the right scripts. BKP film gives him ample scope to show his work. Swathi is pretty good as a girl who is desperate for a kill. She sets the ball rolling in the film. Santosh plays the role of a wannabe actor and he is nice. Ram Laxman are natural in the roles of rival siblings. Sanchalana is cute as Shruti. Harsha Vardhan plays a vital role has various shades and he plays it very convincingly.

Techincal and Other Departments:

Raj Pippalla excels in this film as a screenplay writer. He has written three stories and intertwined them with nice screenplay. The way each character enters during the heist phase is well written and executed. Though all the three stories converge well, I expect bonhomie and liveliness in presenting characters and establish them in the first half. His scenes of auditions and the concept of bheja fry didn’t work well on screen. The lacklustre execution in first half lets us down. However, second half works due to situational strength. It’s nice to see director coming up with moralistic ending despite having attractive theme of robbery.  Music by Mahesh Shankar is alright. All songs in this film are used for montage shots. Background music is fine. Cinematography by Shahir Raza is normal and we except glossy cinematography for a film of this nature. Dialogues by Prasad Varma Penmatsa go are okay. Editing by Dharmendra Kakarala and Chandrasekhar GV should have been crisp. The graphics (letters used for the dialogues uttered by Pizza delivery boy) are cool. Producer Sunitha Tati should be commended for choosing a new storyline and delivering it fresh.

Movie Analysis:

First half of the film is little boring. It’s the second half that matters for any heist film. Second half of the film is nice and is well executed due to situational strength provided by good screenplay. We have a few anthology films (multiple story lines) in Telugu. Our Telugu audiences are yet to get used to these kind of films. Bangaru Kodi Petta is such attempt to make a good anthology film with the backdrop of heist. We have to wait and see how regular movie lovers embrace it.

Final View:

A bit slow but Bangaru Kodipetta has interesting second half. It is Multi-narrative film with dash of romance and robbery-gone-wrong elements.

Raja Gowtham and Alisha Baig New Telugu Film Basanti Movie Review:

Comedian Brahmanandam's son Gautham made his acting debut with 2004 film Pallakilo Pelli Kuturu, which bombed at the Box Office. After seven years, he played hero in movie Vareva, which also failed to give him a break. In a bid to get a hit, he has done lot of hard work for his third movie Basanti, which has hit the screens today. Even leading stars like Chiranjeevi, Mahesh Babu, Pawan Kalyan, NTR, Prabhas, Allu Arjun and Ram Charan have helped to promote the film.

Story:

Arjun (Raja Gowtham) is a final degree student in Basanti College, Hyderabad. He falls in love with Police Commissioner's daughter Roshini (Alisha). On the other hand, an ISI terrorist Ghaji comes down to Hyderabad to plant bombs at international conference. Police come to know his plan and chase him. He escapes from Police firing and lands in Basanti College taking students as hostages. The rest of the story is how Arjun handles the situation.

Artists Performance:

Raja Goutham is decent as an actor and did well in serious scenes. However, he need to improve in performing casual scenes and dances. New actress Alisha Baig has average looks but performed well. Ranadhir played his part well. Naveena Jackson is bubbly in the role of Ranadhir’s girlfriend. Tanikella Bharani is natural as hero’s father. Sayaji Shinde enacted his part well, but his English diction not good (for an IPS officer). Dr. KSI who is basically a noted theater actor in Hyderabad has donned the role of terrorist and he performs extremely well. Bhanu is good as a sleeper cell member.

Technical and Other Departments:

The story idea is good and different from the run-of-the-mill stories we are offered. Director Chaitanya Danthuluri has succeeded in setting the plot up well. The entire first half is concentrated on introducing characters and driving the story to the main plot point. The heart of the film lies in the episodes related to hero saving hostages. These episodes should have been more intelligently written and more effectively handled. Background music by Mani Sharma is outstanding. Songs are good. I expected Thitugubatu song to have some situational strength. But the director used it for a song on hero’s gang in introduction episodes. Vellakura song is good. Cinematography by Anil Bandari and Varma is nice. Dialogues by Srikanth Vissa are good. Fights choreographed by Dragon Prakash are impact making. Production values by producer Chaitanya Dantuluri complements the story.

Movie Analysis:

First half of the film is decent. The hostage rescue episodes should have been gripping in second half. Chaitanya Danthuluri is a promising filmmaker and takes up a potential subject, but falls short in making it a well-made film. Plus points of the film are different plot point and background score. On the flipside, the second half should have been more impact making. We have to wait and see how movie lovers embrace this movie.

Final View:

Basanti deals topical theme but the way it is told is not convincing. Good attempt, better execution would have made a lot difference.

Nani and Vani Kapoor New South film Aaha Kalyanam Movie Review:

Bollywood producer Aditya Chopra has made his debut in South Indian film industry today (February 21) with the movie  Aaha Kalyanam starring Nani and Vaani Kapoor in leads. Yash Raj Films' bilingual movie is very funny and entertaining, but it has lot of Tamil scent and lacks Telugu nativity. It is not simultaneously made in Telugu and Tamil. It is shot in Tamil and dubbed in Telugu with the same title.

Story:
Nani and Vani (Kapoor) have tried their best to make this film work as the movie proceeds in a slow manner. Starting off on a dull note, the film picks up the momentum post interval. Best sequences that have really worked are climax moments. But your patience will be put to test with this movie. An unnecessary song in a wedding in the second half, silly fights between the lead pair also mar the mood post interval.
Twenty-years-old Sruthi (Vani Kapoor) dreams of launching her own wedding planning business inspired by Chandra Lekha (Simran), a leading wedding planner in the city. She meets an aimless student (Shakti) who enters into a wedding to have free dinner. They soon hit off well and become partners in business. She believes one should not mix romance with finance but as they journey together she falls in love. A twist in the tale makes them part ways.

Artists Performance:

Nani is the backbone and connect to Telugu audiences for this movie. It just comes natural for him to improvise and entertain audiences. He has made sure that there is a rustic charm is his characterization and dialogue delivery. He delivers big time with his improvisation in the climax. Vaani Kapoor is beautiful and natural with her work. She looks so sweet that it’s odd to look at her while she is crying on the screen. Simran played the role of a sophisticated wedding planner, but she didn’t bring the sophistication to her high-profile role. All other actors are from Tamil and are aptly cast.

Techincal and Other Departments:

This film is a faithful adaptation of it’s Bollywood original Band Baaja Baarat. Hence almost entire film is similar. New director Gokul Krishna has partly succeeded in getting it alright. Nani compensated a lot with his dialogue improvisation during dubbing, but a film of this nature needs native actors to make it appeal to the Telugu audiences. A fast paced narration is needed in the second half.

The visuals in the beginning of the film are very slick and at par with the standards of Yashraj films. The cinematographer Loganadhan Srinivasan has done a nice job. Music by Dharan Kumar is decent. The title track and the punch dialogues song are winners. Dialogues written to Nani are witty. Art direction deserves a special mention. Editing by Sreenivasan is fine. Production values by Yashraj Films are efficient.

Movie Analysis:

Aha Kalyanam is a Tamil remake of Bollywood film Band Baaja Baarat which is simultaneously dubbed in Telugu with the same name. I belong to the category of people who have already watched Hindi version. Since it’s a faithful adaptation, I can only comment on the value that is added in Telugu version. Nani’s dialogues and improvisation is something that differentiates from the original. The rest will depend on how the Telugu audiences lap up this romantic comedy where the conflict point arises out of lead pair having premarital sex!

Final View:

Aaha Kalyanam is faithful remake of Band Baaja Baaraat, Hindi film but it lacks the abundant exuberance the original had in it. Okay movie.

Editing : Thiyagurajan

Nani and Catherine Tresa New Telugu Film Paisa Movie Review:

Pasupuleti Krishna Vamsi, who is known for his message-oriented movies, is back with another wonderful theme in his latest directorial venture Paisa starring Nani and Catherine Tresa in leads. He throws light on how money has become everything for some people in the current world. But the director seems to have lost grip on the subject as he fails to engage and entertain the film goers.

Story:

Prakash(Nani) is a desperate guy, who wants to earn money and settle down. He works as a model for an old city Sherwani firm. A Muslim girl named Noor (Catherine Tresa) falls in love with him at first site. But Prakash is after Sweety (Siddhika Sharma) for some financial gains. He lands in a big problem, when he finds Rs 50 crore (Hawala money) in the trunk of his car. Who does money belong to? How the money came in his car? What will Prakash do with it? Will Prakash marry Noor? Answers to all these questions will form the crux of the story.

Artists Performance:

Nani has given brilliant performance in Paisa. With his matured acting, he impresses you in all kind of scenes like action, romantic and comedy. As Noor, Catherine Tresa looks cute. Siddhika Sharma, who has played second female role manages to impress with her glamour in a brief screen presence. Tabar tries his best to tickle your funny bones. Others like Bharath Reddy, Charan Raj, Raja Ravinder, Duvvasi Mohan and Raju Srivasthav have also done justice to their roles.

Technical and Other Departments:

Paisa has sound production values and Sai Karthik's soundtracks and brilliant background score are the main attractions in the technical front. Santosh Rai's camera work is another big strength of the film. Thiyagurajan's editing is good, but chopping a few unnecessary scene would have made the film even better watch. Other technical departments have done commendable job.

Movie Analysis:

Paisa is an action entertainer with a nice blend of romance and high entertainment quotient. Nani's performance is the main highlight in the film. Krishna Vamsi's brand new story, Sai Karthik's music, Santosh Rai's cinematography, Tabar's comedy timing and power-packed dialogues are other big strengths of the movie. A few unnecessary scenes, which bore audience, are its drawbacks.Krishna Vamsi, who wants to deal with Hawala and money laundering issues in a different way, has chosen wonderful story for Paisa, but he has failed to execute his ideas on screen. He tries to showcase how politicians squander their black money during the election time. Although he has added all the masala elements to it, the director could not hold the attention of the viewers. The reason is that his screenplay lacks interesting twists and turns to engage them.The movie opens with the title track 'Paisa' and it heads to show how two politicians competing to spend heavily to become MLA. The first half of the film has three beautiful songs, a chase scene and a few comedy moments. The movie runs on same pace and an interesting twist at the interval bang sets a momentum for the narration. However, the second half fails to carry forward this mood and it bores the audience.

Final View:

Overall, Paisa is a good commercial entertainer, but it is not upto the mark of Krishna Vamsi's previous ventures. Nani's performance is the saving grace in the film. You can watch the film, If you are a hardcore fan of Nani or Krishna.

Nithin and Adah Sharma New telugu Film Heart Attack Movie Review:

After working with biggies like Mahesh Babu, Pawan Kalyan and Allu Arjun, Puri Jagannadh has now chosen actor Nitin for his latest directorial venture Heart Attack, which has hit the marque today (January 31). It is a formulaic movie made in Puri's style. The lead actors' performances and rich production are the big assets of the movie.

Story:
Varun (Nithin) who lost his parents in his childhood roams around the world as hippie. He doesn't believe in commitment in love. When he is in Spain, he falls for a Telugu beauty Hayati (Adah Sharma) who lands in Spain from Goa to meet a friend. He follows her and her friend daily. Hayati hates his advances in the first, but slowly develops soft corner towards him. When he asks an hour-long kiss from her and nothing else, she agrees on one condition and leaves him after that. What is that condition and what happens after that?

Artists Performance:

This is the best character done by Nitin so far in his career. He has interpreted his character excellently and performed it to perfection. His dialogue delivery, expressions and body language are just perfect. Nitin is completely at home and in his comfort zone while enacting an exotic character designed by Puri Jagan. Adah Sharma looks exotic and performs well. Voice dubbed to her in the movie adds another dimension to her character. Kesha Khambhati is vivacious with her work. Brahmanandam comes up with another hilarious performance as ISKON Ramana who is serving for ISKON in Spain. Ali provides entertainment in second half as a Tamil vendor in Goa and as a fan of Rajnikant. Ajaz Khan played the role of main villain and he fits the bill. Ajay played a baddie and his mannerisms and expressions in a few scenes are praiseworthy. Prakash Raj plays a cameo and gives a happy ending to the movie.

Technical and Other Departments:

The basic storyline is very thin. This film is about small moments and characterizations. After introducing the character of bounty hunter with Ek Niranjan, Puri Jagan introduces another unusual character of a hippie with Heart Attack film. He has narrated the entire movie from hero and heroine point of view and didn’t compromise on any aspect. He has shown the pain of love in an intense way. He has effectively used craigslist website for hero’s employment, which in turns helps him to achieve the goal in climax. The way he cut the Titanic film and interpreted from Brahmanandam’s point of view is hilarious. I liked the way clock is shown in pre-interval kissing episode. The threads of Brahmanandam and Ali are used for familiarising with the proceedings as the entire film is shot in exotic locations (Spain, Thailand and Goa). There is no Andhra Pradesh backdrop to it. Puri Jagan has maintained the same texture to the entire film.

Cinematography by Amol Rathod is a huge asset. Camera angles and framing of shots is in exquisite taste. The visual effects and color grading complements the visuals (you can see the finesse of visual effects in the blade flying in the climax). All songs scored by Anup Rubens richly accentuates with the spirit of the movie. All songs have good beat and are hummable. Background music by Anup Rubens is excellent. Lyricist Bhaskarabhatla sums hero’s characterization up as ‘ee life ki sequel ledura mama’ in introduction song. The editing cuts and styling patterns deserves special mention. Action episodes composed by Ram Laxman are extremely stylish. Art director Brahma Kadali does a neat job as we see almost virgin locations on a Telugu screen. Editing by SR Sekhar is crisp. This is the first film produced by Puri Jagan on his Touring Talkies banner (earlier films were done on Vaishno Media banner). One can see his uncompromising attitude as producer when you look at lavish visuals on the screen.

Movie Analysis:

Heart Attack is one of the few Puri Jagan’s films where the characterization of hero is consistently and convincingly maintained from the first frame to last frame. It is also probably one of the few films where the entire story is set outside AP. Puri Jagan takes a lot of risk and sticks to his story and characterizations without bothering for other commercial aspects. Liking or disliking this movie depends on how you connect and travel with the character of hero in the film. These kinds of movies have potential to do well if made in Bollywood as national market supports them. This is the best stylized movie done by Puri Jagan so far. We have to wait and see how Telugu audiences embrace the movie.

Final View:

Heart Attack definitely has style and rich visuals but the love story is told in too simplistic manner to take it seriously.

Mohan Babu, Vishnu Manchu, Manchu Manoj New Telugu Film Pandavulu Pandavulu Tummeda Movie Review:

Manchu family starrer Pandavulu Pandavulu Tummeda, which has garnered a lot of positive buzz due to its ensemble cast, has released in theatres today (January 31). The movie, which seems to have been inspired from hit Bollywood movie Golmaal 3, is good commercial movie, which is high on entertainment quotient.

Story:

Naidu (Mohan Babu), tour guide and his former lover (Raveena Tandon) live in Thailand unknown to each other. Both are single parents now, Naidu is a father of three children (Manoj Manchu, Varun Sandesh and Tanish) and she mother of two children (Vishnu Manchu and Vennela Kishore). In the beginning both their children don't bond well and fight with each other. Honey (Hansika) brings Naidu and his former lover together and gets them married. Honey is also in love with Vijay (Vishnu). On other hand, a gang from India is searching for Honey (Hansika Motwani) and soon they find her in Bangkok. She is kidnapped and taken to India. How Naidu's family including five children land in India to bring back Honey forms the rest of the story.

Artists Performance:

This film totally belongs to three actors Mohan Babu, Manoj and Vishnu. Mohan Babu plays the role of Naidu that has different shades like a doting father and a strategist. And has two different get-ups: a tour guide (first half) and an astrologer (second half). Vishnu looks very good in action episodes and his chemistry with actress Hansika is nice. It’s Manoj Manchu steals the show with Mohini character in the second half. He plays a character that has three different dimensions - a conman, a lady and a cop. He has shown nice variations in these three characters. His portrayal of Mohini character is superb. Varun Sandesh does a character who has the knack of coming up with hatke one-liners. Tanish plays the role of a mute guy and is alright. Hansika Motwani adds glamor with her looks. Praneetha looks good as modern girl. Raveena Tandon is paired up with Mohan Babu and made a re-entry into Telugu after a huge gap. Brahmanandam is entertaining as Bapure - a Telugu language/culture lover. Vennela Kishore had less screen space, but does well. Supreet will get a break as comedian with this movie as his character is well written for entertainment in the second half. Dasari Narayana Rao did a cameo as Raveena Tandon’s father in flashback episode. Telangana Sakuntala is good though she acted in a couple of scenes. Rukesh Mukhi, Shravan, Giri Babu and others are adequate.

Technical and Other Departments:

Story of the film is divided into two parts. The first half story of the movie is inspired by Golmaal 3 film. But the writer has added another element in the story which leads us to the part in second half. The concept of getting inspired by Narthanasala movie and enacting 13th year of Pandava Vanavasam in Kaurava’s place in disguise is a novel idea. The comedy of errors that are generated due to the screenplay of Manoj doing two roles Mohini/Mohan adds up to it. The director who didn’t show his grip of narration in the first half managed to get things right in second half mainly due to a good screenplay technique.

Pandavulu Pandavulu Tummeda reviewOther departments: Dialogues written by Diamond Ratna are partly good. Music scored by Achu and Bappa Lahari is okay. Chinna has effectively used a few nice old songs in background music to help the situations. Cinematography by Palani Kumar is fine. Some of the action sequences composed by Manoj himself are good. Editing is alright. Producer Vishnu is concentrating more on entertainment aspects in his films which is turning out to be a right thing to do.

Movie Analysis:

First half of the film is okay. Second half has some nice entertaining moments. Plus points of the film are main leads, screenplay in second half and the lady get-up of Manoj Manchu. Pandavulu Pandavulu Thummeda is a kind of film that caters to everybody. With entertainment as it’s strength in the second half, the prospects of Pandavulu Pandavulu are good at box office.

Final View:

In Pandavulu Pandavulu Tummeda, there are few genuinely comic moments but rest are lowbrow. It is clearly aimed at mass audiences. Manoj and Brahmanandam provide comedy in the second half. Watch it for comedy.

Ram Charan, Allu Arjun and Kajal Agarwal New Telugu Film Yevadu Movie Review:

Yevadu is a romantic action entertainer, which has all the masala elements to woo the mass audience. Ram Charan Teja's energetic performance is the main highlight in the film. Vamsi Paidipally's racy narration, Devi Sri Prasad's music and background score, Shyam K Naidu's beautiful picturisation, well-choreographed stunts and dance scenes, Brahmanandam and Kota Srinivas' comedy and exotic locations are other attractions in the movie.

Story:

Two lovers - Satya (Allu Arjun) and Deepthi (Kajal Agarwal) get into trouble with a local don Veeru Bhai (Rahul Dev) in Vizag city. Deepthi wants move away from Vizag to avoid further problems. Bhai’s men attack the bus in which the lovers are traveling in and set the bus on the fire. Deepthi is killed in the incident while Satya is left to struggling for life with major burns. A doctor saves his life and does plastic surgery to his face with another man’s face. Now, he is Ram (Ram Charan). With this new identity he starts killing the Bhai gang one by one. On the other hand, another gang is after Ram. Who are they? And What is Ram's identity?

Artists Performance:

Ram Charan is excellent in a role that carries emotions of two souls. His dialogue delivery, screen presence and dances are superb. Allu Arjun is very good in a pivotal role. Shruti Hassan has a bubbly character and did well. Amy Jackson has a role in the first half. Kajal Agarwal did a small yet important role. Sai Kumar is superb as the main villain. His looks, solid body language and captivating voice helped to elevate the villain role. Kota Srinivasa Rao though has a limited role provides entertainment with Nellore dialect. He is so good that when says ‘yow, podisemundu choosukovakharla’ while dying people were laughing amidst climax. Jayasudha gets a vital role in this film and she is adorable and brings balance to the film with her work. Shashank is very good and it’s nice to see him different characters. The characterization of Brahmanandam’s role should have been entertaining. LB Sriram gets a good role of a suppressed elderman and he perfectly essays it.

Technical and Other Departments:

The story provided by Vamsi paidipalli and Vakkantham Vamsi is intriguing it helps the screenplay. It’s a revenge story with an unusual angle. Director Vamsi Paidipally has been the director who has good grip on action orientation (Munna) and family emotions (Brindavanam). He has used these two strengths with a commercial screenplay to deliver Yevadu. Jayasudha’s thread in this film is a big plus for family crowds. The emotions of all basti episodes will attract masses. I really liked the way director gave credit to his team with end title card with ‘a film by Vamsi paidipalli and team’. 

Yevadu reviewOther departments: Songs by Devi Sri Prasad are good. Background music is very good. The background music scored for Basti episodes has helped in getting emotions across very well. Cinematography by Ram Prasad is a plus. Dialogues by Abburi Ravi are alright. Editing is fine. Action episodes composed by Peter Hein and Selvam cater well to the masses. Dil Raju’s decision to release Yevadu for pongal seems be working well as this film has all the ingredients that are required for a commercial hit.

Movie Analysis:

Movie starts off in an interesting mode. First half is alright. Second half has pretty good emotional elements with the Jayasudha (family emotions) and Sai Kumar (mass emotions). The plus points of film are Ram Charan’s performance, commercial screenplay that has an inherent factor that arouses curiosity and director’s ability to handle mass and family emotions. On the flip side, the first half of the film has no conflict point as hero continues to kill the targets with zero opposition and there is lot of violence in the movie. On a whole, Yevadu is a film that has all ingredients to work at Box Office this Sankranthi!.

Final View:

Yevadu provides novelty in the beginning episodes promising a different commercial film but ends up as a regular revenge drama. Has many clichéd moments but it is also a film that works to some extent. A masala fare.

Mahesh Babu and Kriti Sanon New Telugu Film 1 Nenokkadine Movie Review:

Superstar Mahesh Babu's 1: Nenokkadine, which has been directed by Sukumar, is one of the most-talked about and highly-anticipated Telugu movies. The promos of the film have created lot of curiosity among the viewers. Having released in theatres today, the movie is much more than what has been expected from it. Made on par with Hollywood standards, this film is sure to become a landmark film in Prince's career.

Story:

Gautham (Mahesh Babu) is a rock star. Past demons haunt him. He believes he has a past in which three people killed his parents. The world around him thinks that he is an orphan. A journalist Sameera (Kriti Sannon) captures an episode in his life and tries to unravel the mystery behind his past. Soon they become lovers. Together they are on the mission to find the answers to the mystery behind his past that leads to them Goa, London and Ireland.

Artists Performance:

My respect for Mahesh Babu has increased multifold after watching this movie. His decision to accept a thriller, that's too with psychological issues is a daring one. This film and his character in this movie will remain as one of his best accomplishments in his career. There is lot of underplaying in his characterization and it’s multi-layered. He is simply superb. On the commercial front, his work in interval episode and the shadow step he has done in ‘You Are My Love’ are of top-notch. The final conversation with the main villain and his dialogue to the kid at graveyard is excellent.

1 Nenokkadine reviewOthers: Mahesh Babu’s son Gowtam made his debut as childhood Mahesh. He is another superstar in making. Ease in acting and lovable looks! Kriti Sanon is pretty good and suited the height of Mahesh Babu. Kelly Dorji, Pradeep Rawat and Nassar played important roles. Posani Krishna Murali’s role is the only character in this film where the director tried providing regular entertainment. Naveen Polisetty did a vital role. Sophie Choudry has done the item song in this movie..

Technical and Other Departments:

The production values of 1: Nenokkadine are on par with Hollywood standards and Ratnavelu's cinematography is the main attraction in the technical front. Devi Sri Prasad's music and background score are also among the big strengths of the film. Though all his songs are good to listen, a couple of them have been misplaced. International stunt coordinator Conrad Palmisano's stunts and chase scenes are also one of the main highlights of the film. Other technical departments have also done commendable job. Karthika Srinivas' editing is also good, but he could have trimmed a few scenes in the second half.

Movie Analysis:

First things first. 1 Nenokkadine is not an universal film like Dookudu. It belongs to psychological thriller genre. Thriller and psychological are two rare genres that are least attempted in Telugu film industry. It’s also a multi-layered movie. Plus points of film are Mahesh Babu, screenplay, cinematography, production values and technical values. On the flip side, the sluggish narration and excessive runtime hampers the tempo. When three big names - Mahesh Babu, Sukumar and 14 Reels are involved in making such a high-budgeted film, there are bound to be a lot of expectations. 1 Nenokkadine is not a commercial potboiler. Film lovers who have exposure to Hollywood films and world cinema will appreciate this movie. 1 Nenokkadine is a film that makes Mahesh, Sukumar, producers and entire unit proud. We need to wait and see how a common movie lover who is used to formulaic films lap it up.

Final View:

In 1 Nenokkadine, individual sequences seep coolness but the same cannot be said if we see it in totality. Apart from Mahesh Babu’s stunning performance, the drive of the film is completely off the track. It tests the viewer's patience as it drags on.
