Story: Shaurya is a happy-go-lucky guy who does not take his life seriously, and he wants to stay in his hometown for a lifetime and mainly has an attachment to the center named Rangabali. For a reason, he comes to Vizag and falls in love with Sahaja, a medico student. Sahaja also falls for Shaurya and when everything seems to go smoothly, Sahaja’s father does not agree to the marriage. Why did he take that decision? What connection does Shaurya have with the Rangabali Center? Answers to these questions form the rest of the story.

Analysis: Debutante director Pawan Basamsetti made it clear with the promos that his film, Rangabali is aimed at entertaining the audiences. He was very much glued on to the target in the first half where things worked well. The hero’s introduction and his bonding family, friends, and his hometown were well established. The combination scenes between Naga Shaurya and Satya came out very well and the romance track with the heroine was also good.

Towards the interval, the movie hints at a serious turn in the second half and though the initial portions seem to work, slowly the narrative drops and never gets back. The flashback, which was too routine and melodramatic, did not add any value to the film. Also, the scenes towards climax looked very silly for the premise it had.

Performances: Naga Shaurya looked good and tried his best to excel, but his character lacked the energy in the second half. Comedian Satya got a meaty role, and he did full justice to it. Actress Yukti Thareja was fine, and she looked damn hot in one song. Shine Tom Chacko Was Fine. Murali Sharma, Goparaju Ramana, Subhalekha Sudhakar, and Sarath Kumar were ok.

Plus Points:

  • First half
  • Satya’s comedy
  • Few dialogues

Minus Points:

  • Dull second half
  • Routine flashback
  • Songs

Verdict:

Overall, Rangabali could have been a nice entertainer if the second half had been handled well. The fun filled first half, comedian Satya’s role work for the film but the dragged and boring moments, routine flashback portions work against it. You can watch the movie only if you can overlook the flaws in it.
