Bhola Shankar the upcoming mass entertainer starring Megastar Chiranjeevi as the lead, is going through a tough phase before its release. It is very well known to everyone that the film has not been able to get the required craze of a star hero film. Also, the film unit faced a shocker from the Andhra Pradesh government as they were denied an RS 25 hike in the ticket price.

However, during this process, a shocking thing about the film’s budget has been revealed that the film is actually a huge budget film. Now this is surprising news for sure, because if we look at the making quality and genre of the film, it looks like a regular commercial entertainer, but the makers have told that they have made this film with a budget of 101 Crores excluding the remuneration of Megastar Chiranjeevi.

This news has appear to be a shocker because Bhola Shankar’s making budget was expected to be very normal as it does not need any lavish sets or any grandeur/ VFX. But the makers had submitted to the AP government for ticket hike and mentioned that the making cost of the film was 101 Crores without Chiranjeevi’s remuneration.

They said it is a huge budget film and requested for ticket hike and the government denied the hike by saying a few documents related to the making were missing. So now according to the makers, Bhola Shankar’s budget is 101 crores apart from Chiranjeevi’s remuneration and if we take his remuneration, which will definitely more than 50 Crores, so totally it amounts to a150 Crores budget film.

Jailer Movie Review – Superstar excels in an adequate outing

0

Movie: Jailer
Rating: 2.75/5
Cast: Rajinikanth, Vasanth Ravi, Ramya Krishnan, Tamannaah Bhatia, Jackie Shroff
Director: Nelson Dilipkumar
Produced By: Sun Pictures
Release Date: 10th August 2023

Story: Muthuvel Pandian (Rajinikanth) is a retired Jailer who lives with his wife (Ramya Krishnan), son (Vasanth Ravi) who is also a police officer, daughter-in-law (Mirnaa) and grandson happily. Pandian’s son tries to go investigate a crime gang, goes missing and is assumed dead. Enraged by this, Pandian vows to take revenge. Was he successful in his mission? What kind of troubles he faced in this process? Answers to these questions form the rest of the story.

Analysis: The first half of the film starts on a decent note with showing Rajini in a calm role. The background setting of the crime world, the relation between father and son was also shown in a good way. Though the pace appears to be too slow, the impact gets better after a serious turn. After the Rajinikanth’s role takes the charge, things get interesting and the interval episode also came well.

The post-Interval flashback sequence, had an excellent impact but after that, the film loses grip with some uninteresting comedy scenes which give a feel of boredom and deviate from the main plot. The proceedings keep getting dragged out without any impact and the Sunil – Tamannaah’s episode was turned out to be a big disappointment. But the climax episode came good, and it makes the overall effect a bit better.

Performances: Rajinikanth was too good in his role and carried out the entire film on his shoulders. Vinayakan was good and portrayed the evilness in his character very well. Shiva Raj Kumar made a terrific impact in a cameo, while Mohanlal was also good. Vasanth Ravi, Ramya Krishnan, Mirnaa and others were fine.

Plus Points:

  • Rajinikanth’s performance and screen presence
  • Anirudh BGM
  • Shiva Raj Kumar cameo
  • Climax

Minus Points:

  • Misplaced comedy
  • Dragged moments after flashback
  • Sunil – Tamannaah track

Verdict:

Rajinikanth’s superb performance, Anirudh Ravichander’s Background Score and a few terrific sequences along with the Climax work well for the film. However the misfired comedy and dragged second half work against it. Overall the film can be a decent outing if you watch without much expectations.

Baby actress Vaishnavi Chaitanya became super popular, with the movie registering a massive and sensational success. People who have seen Baby movie went crazy over her performance. In her first film as a heroine, she made everyone stunned with her superb performance. However, the actress is not getting big offers like other young actresses such as Krithi Shetty and Sree Leela.

With Uppena, actress Krithi Shetty received a huge number of films continuously because of the big success of the film. However, with the consecutive bad results, she has gone through some bad phases in her career, but she has good crazy movies in the pipeline.

Meanwhile, Sree Leela is now rocking as the top heroine in the Telugu film industry. With a super successful debut with Pelli Sandadi, which continued with a blockbuster like Dhamaka she went on to receive massive offers. However, unfortunately, it is not the same with Baby actress Vaishnavi Chaitanya.

It is a well-known fact that Vaishnavi delivered a spellbound performance with her debut film, Baby, but still, she is not getting offers like Krithi Shetty and Sree Leela. This raises a doubt that Tollywood is still not interested to rope in Telugu actresses for the female lead roles?
