Bhale Manchi Roju Movie Review
Story:
Ram (Sudhir Babu) works as delivery boy of a luxury car company. He gets ditched with his girl friend (Dhanya Balakrishna). A dejected Ram sets out to take revenge but on the way hits a car setting loose a girl, Seetha (Wamiqa Gabbi) who gets kidnapped by Shakthi’s gang (Sai Kumar). However the gang kidnaps Ram’s best friend and announces to release him only after getting back Seetha. But the young lady gets kidnapped by another gang. The events that followed later, forms the rest of the story.
Performances:
Sudhir Babu seem to be improving from film to film. This is a film where we see the actor right from the start to end and accordingly he shouldered it entirely. He came up with a good performance. Wamiqa Gabbi got a decent debut with good screen presence.
Posani is hilarious as a Church father and 30 Years Prudhvi’s track at the end is an asset. Sai Kumar lived up to his reputation as a baddie. Aishwarya Bhaskaran, Praveen, Paruchuri Gopalakrishna, Vidyullekha Raman, Chaitanya Krishna, Dhanya Balakrishna, Ghosh and others are okay in their little roles.
Technical Performances:
Sriram Aditya made an impressive debut as a director. He picks up a different story line and made sure it is executed interestingly. Though there is a little deviation post the interval but it got masked with twists, racy screenplay and hilarious climax. Definitely he is a prospect for future. The makers should be lauded for their excellent production values.
Camera work by Shamdat Sainudeen is top notch especially the aerial shots are very impressive. All the chases and fights which are needed for this Kidnap drama are also conceived well. Editing is good but the songs are speed breakers due to their poor placement.
Plus Points:
- Story and Screenplay.
- Performances of all the lead cast.
- Comedy of Posani & 30yrs industry Prudhvi
- Shamdat’s top-notch Cinematography.
- Modish Editing.
- Minus Points:
- Lack of wow factors.
- Songs looked forced.
Final Say:
Bhale Manchi Roju is an engaging and entertaining dark comedy. It is a different attempt in Tollywood which needs to be appreciated. Try it this weekend, it is certainly worth your time!
