DNK review: Mouli Tanuj Prashanth, who scored a hit with Little Hearts, is back with Donga Naa Koduku, renamed DNK due to certain issues. Backed by Mythri Movie Makers, the crime comedy hits theatres today. Here’s our review.
DNK Story
Eeshwar (Mouli) is a careless young man from Vizag who drops out of college and is determined to make a lot of money by any means. He loses a huge sum through online betting.
He also falls in love with a wealthy girl and uses her money to meet his needs. This leads him into unexpected trouble and links with a crime. The rest of the story follows Eeshwar as he tries to get out of it.
Performances
Mouli Tanuj Prashanth appears confident and tries to bring as much fun as possible into the proceedings. But he manages to do so in only a few scenes.
Sushmitha Shetty appears cute, and that’s all there is to her character. Ali, Rajitha, Priya, Raghu Babu, Gundu Sudarshan, Nanda Gopal and others are okay.
Analysis
DNK is directed by debutant director Sreenu Kambala, who tries to make a hilarious movie with whacky characters and proceedings. The attempt is fine, but the execution falters.
From the beginning, the film makes it clear that it is a no-brainer comedy and things are not so serious. There are a few moments where the fun works because of Mouli, but the robbery portions and the scenes that follow appear convoluted.
After a twist, one expects the film to get interesting, but the narrative goes on a random mode and delivers another twist at the interval.
In the second half, there are many silly, irritating and stretched proceedings. Only a few of them bring some fun, making the whole experience tiresome.
Towards the climax, the twists do not carry any impact and just prolong the already dragged film.
Positives
- Some Comedy Scenes
- Interval Twist
Negatives
- Weakly Etched Characters
- Forced Humor
- Tiresome Second Half
- Stretched Last Half An Hour
DNK Review and Verdict
Mouli and debutant director Sreenu Kambala try their best to make DNK a hilarious movie, but the film delivers only a few fun parts. It turns out to be an exhausting movie with silly proceedings and senseless characters.
