Ori Devuda movie review: Fun and engaging entertainer

Movie: Ori Devuda
Rating: 2.75/5
Cast: Vishwak Sen, Mithila Palkar, Venkatesh
Director: Ashwath Marimuthu
Produced By:  Prasad V Potluri
Release Date: 21st October

Vishwak Sen’s Ori Devuda has created the right buzz before release with its teaser and the latest lyrical ‘Avunanava’ impressing the netizens. His last film Ashoka Vanamlo Arjuna Kalyanam did well and his performance was well appreciated. Now with, Ori Devuda, he wants to repeat something similar.

The biggest drawing factor of the movie though is Victory Venkatesh who is playing a crucial guest role in the film. Let’s find out if the movie has managed to capture the audience’s attention or not

Story: Arjun (Vishwak Sen) and Anu (Mithila Palkar) are childhood best friends who decide to get married. However, things take an ugly turn and the couple applies for a divorce. At the court, Arjun encounters a mysterious person at the court and through a strange turn of events, Arjun encounters God himself (Venkatesh). How God gives him a chance to rectify his mistakes and what transformation Arjun undergoes forms the rest of the story

Performances: Vishwak Sen is in a great form and performs well in comedy and emotional scenes. He has improved tremendously since his initial days and shoulders the movie well. Mithila Palkar in her Telugu debut impresses with her acting and looks great on screen. She has performed on par with Vishwak Sen and the fresh pairing has given the movie a great touch. Venkatesh as always is amazing in his extended cameo and lights up the screen whenever he appears. His comic timing and amazing screen presence are a great asset to the film. Asha Bhat is ok and doesn’t have much in terms of performance. Her dubbing and some scenes are quite off-key and disturbs the flow of the film

Analysis: Ori Devuda is a neat adaptation of the original Tamil film Oh My Kadavule. The biggest strength of the film is its casting and Venkatesh, Vishwak Sen and Mithila Palkar had done a great job. Ashwanth Marimuthu has done a good job at presenting a screenplay that appears fresh and film has plenty of fun moments to enjoy. Barring a few creative liberties taken by the director, the film is enjoyable and a good watch for the weekend.

Plus Points:

  • Vishwak Sen and Mithila Palkar’s pairing
  • Good entertaining moments
  • Venkatesh
  • Interval block

Minus Points:

  • Asha Bhatt’s track with Vishwak Sen
  • Predictable scenes
  • Second half drama

Verdict: 

Overall Ori Devuda is a good attempt at presenting a new-age rom-com. The God element and his influence on the lead character’s life have been well presented. Overall the film has enough moments to entertain and would have been even better if certain scenes were written better and editing was crisper.
