SS Rajamouli has just confirmed that the clash is on between his RRR and Prabhas’ Radhe Shyam. The two movies will be releasing in a gap of one week in January 2022 and are two of the most anticipated projects pan-India.

Speaking about the upcoming clash between RRR and Radhe Shyam, he said, ” Clash won’t hamper the business. There are many instances in the past when multiple films coming together did well. People are going to watch all good films. Wish all to make money.”

Incidentally, Rajamouli looked to avoid this clash earlier in bid to ensure both the films have a great run. The RRR team reportedly requested the Radhe Shyam makers to make space for Rajamouli’s magnum opus. However, this request was rejected outright by Prabhas’ Radhe Shyam.

Radhe Shyam is all set to release on 14th January 2022 and the recently released glimpse has heightened expectations. RRR on the other hand has locked 7th January 2022 as the release date and the promotions have been planned in a grand manner.

Romantic review: A typical Puri Jagannadh presentation

0

Movie: Romantic
Rating: 2.25/5
Cast: Akash Puri, Ketika Sharma, Ramya Krishna,
Director: Anil Paduri
Produced By:  Puri Jagannadh, Charmi Kaur under Puri Connects
Release Date: 29th October 2021

Right from the release of the first poster the audience had an idea of what to expect from Akash Puri and Ketika Sharma’s Romantic. The subsequent teasers and trailer made it clear that the film is going to be a raunchy love story with action sequences and Puri mark sprinkled all over. While Akash Puri has played lead roles before, this his entry into the world of formulaic commercial entertainers.

Story: Vasco De Gama Alberto (Akash Puri) is a young gangster with a good heart. Like most Puri heroes, he is an orphan and has a different and wild take on life. Monica (Ketika Sharma) is a girl Akash is deeply passionate about. What unwinds over the next couple of hours is the couple’s passionate romance generously laced with steamy scenes and countless cuddles and kisses. There is a gangster angle and a cop angle where ACP Ramya Gowarikar (Ramya Krishna) comes in and what happens next is one bizarre and inexplicable scene after another.

Performance: Akash Puri is entering the world of commercial cinema with this one but doesn’t look the part. He is too unconvincing as a gangster and doesn’t exude the menace that Puri’s gangster/heroes usually do. He looks ripe and its better if he chooses softer scripts at the moment. Ketika Sharma is there doing what is clearly expected from here. The scope for performance is rare but there’s plenty of space for bold scenes and glamour display which she does a good job at. Ramya Krishna is stuck in this strange action-romance story and still manages to do a decent job

Analysis: Even though Romantic has been directed by Anil Paduri, there’s Puri mark written all over the movie, the over-the-top dialogues, the Goa beaches, the hero who doesn’t differentiate between romance and harassment, there’s everything that you’ve seen before. While the movie has some high times, the lack of depth in characters and absence of emotional connection often makes you wonder about the director’s intentions. Apart from Akash, Ketika, and Ramya Krishna, other characters are mere props and that’s one more disadvantage for this film.

Plus Points:

Ketika Sharma

Dialogues

Pre-Interval

Minus Points:

Cliched writing

Senseless scenes

Music

Second half

Verdict: Romantic is primarily aimed at the youngsters who will be drawn by the sizzle of Ketika Sharma. Once that sizzle fizzles, there isn’t much underneath and one would be distracted by Akash’s baby looks and the loudness of the film. The know it all character is something that only a few actors can carry well enough and at this point, Akash isn’t one of them. Watch if you’re an ardent Puri fan.

Varudu Kaavalenu review: has great potential but falls short

0

Movie: Varudu Kaavalenu
Rating: 2.5/5
Cast: Naga Shourya, Ritu Varma, Nadhiya, Murali Sharma, Vennela Kishore
Director: Lakshmi Sowjanya
Produced By:  Suryadevara Naga Vamsi under Sithara Entertainments.
Release Date: 29th October 2021

Naga Shourya is returning to the screens with his latest release Varudu Kaavalenu after a gap of more than a year. His last film Ashwathama was an experimental thriller and failed to create the desired impact. This time he is returning with his safe zone- a romantic entertainer. Co-starring with Ritu Varma, the film has created a positive vibe before release with its music and fresh star cast. Has the debutant director Lakshmi Sowjanya managed to engage the viewers? let’s find out.

Story: The basic premise of the story is about two youngsters who are poles apart in their character, ambitions, and lifestyle. How they meet each other and how the relationship fledges forms the crux of the plot. Akash( Naga Shourya) is an architect who moves to India and looks to impress Bhoomi (Ritu Varma), a fierce and independent woman averse to the concept of a traditional wedding. How Akash faces these obstacles and marches towards his love is what the movie follows.

Performance: Naga Shourya has given a mature and perhaps the best performance of his career. He looks fit and sharp in the formals and as a young architect, his look is on point. Ritu Verma’s characterization is one of the movie’s highlights and is well written. Lakshmi Sowjanya has done a great job in taking great care of ensuring Bhoomi’s character comes across as a strong woman and not as a stubborn one. Murali Sharma and Nadhiya have done a good job as Bhoomi’s parents and have some great dialogues and moments in the movie. Vishal Chandrashekhar’s music and Vamsi Patchipulusu’s visuals are to be appreciated as they elevate the movie to great heights. Despite these many highs, it is the dull second half that brings down the movie’s tempo and what was supposed to be a great concept starts testing your patience.

Analysis: One of the biggest problems with the movie is the lag in the screenplay. The second half starts picking the movie’s tempo apart one by one and by the time the movie ends, even a runtime of 2 hours and 15 minutes seems too long. The movie starts losing the emotional connect and that usually is bad news in this genre. Apart from the dialogues, the other writing part lets the movie down and limits the movie’s potential. Vennela Kishore and Sapthagiri’s comedy have their moments but the overall impact is missed

Plus Points:

Naga Shourya’s look

Ritu Varma’s characterization

Visually great to watch

Minus Points:

Sloppy second half

Lack of emotional connect

Repetitive premise and familiar story

Verdict: Varudu Kaavalenu shows great potential right from the word go. The effort put in by Naga Shourya in terms of his looks and fitness is quite evident and it must be appreciated. Ritu Varma eases in Bhoomi’s character and gives a good performance. However, the movie could have provided a better experience had the writers tried to focus on the couple’s emotional connection more than the misplaced fights and cliched scenes. Overall it’s a decent watch for the festive season could be your pick if visuals and grand sets are your cup of tea.

Netizens Talk : DSP failed to impress

0

Pushpa’s third single ‘Saami Saami’ dropped in yesterday and has evoked mixed reactions. The song still is the better of the earlier two singles released so far. However, the netizens’ response to the music released so far has been quite underwhelming which is not the norm for a DSP and Allu Arjun album.

The duo has always given chartbuster albums and this time it needs some serious ramp-up through the remaining songs to save the album. Reportedly, Allu Arjun took extra care of the songs and has been quite particular about the output. Despite his constant efforts, the album’s response has been cold.

The first two singles from Pushpa ‘Srivalli’ and ‘Daakko Daakko Meka’ have not exactly created a rampage that we expected. These songs failed to reach the masses the way Ala Vaikunthapurramlo songs did.

Now all eyes are set on the upcoming mas number. The duo of Allu Arjun and DSP have given some sensational mass numbers starting from Arya back in 2004. Let’s hope this number becomes the chartbuster as expected.
