Mahesh is the SRK of Tollywood

Labels: Mahesh Babu, Shahrukh Khan, Telugu

Mahesh Babu is the number one hero among the current generation heroes is what his fans believe. Other heroes fans contradict this and show various weak points of Mahesh to prove that he has long way to go to reach that point. But every hero fan should agree that Mahesh is the number one when it comes to overseas territory.

No hero comes close to him in terms of popularity or crowd pulling ability in this region. Dookudu has set a new landmark for this region showing that there is so much untapped market for Telugu films in overseas. We can compare him to Shahrukh Khan especially in this area.
SRK proved he is undisputed king in overseas with numerous instances and Mahesh is following the suit. Stars like Salman Khan are kings in India but couldn't come close to Shahrukh in overseas. Same is happening with stars like Jr NTR here. We have to wait and see if Pawan Kalyan, who was once a big crowd puller in this region could bounce back and match up with Mahesh or not.

Story:

A thoughtful tale, the story begins with PJ (nani) who is filled with pride and headstrong nature. He dreams of owning the Rs 5000 crores property of his grandfather (nagineedu) as he is reaching major status. However, when the time comes, the grandfather's will is read out and it implies that PJ must complete his graduation in three years and that too at a college in Siripuram. If he doesn't, he would not get the property. PJ decides to go for it. There he meets more than he can chew. But what starts as a mission for property soon gets PJ into various situations and incidents which change his perspective towards life and people. What happens after that forms the rest of the story.

Artist performances:
Nani has given a sensible performance and he carries the role very well. Haripriya looks hot and seductive with her natural beauty. She deserves to be seen more onscreen. Bindu Madhavi was sweet but her role was limited. Srinivas Avasarala was effective and added good value. Ravu Ramesh was good. M S Narayana was impressive, Vennela Kishore was funny. Nagineedu was mild as usual. Sivaprasad was standard. Nani's group of friends was very good and brought a lot of humour.

Plus points:

Comedy
Making and taking
Dialogues
Locations and feel

Minus points:

Second half
Sentimental overdose
Excess Melodrama during second half
Weak pace in few scenes

Analysis:
The good side of the film is that the script has been met with a different treatment altogether. Luckily, most of the time the film is made on a lighter note and there is a very realistic approach to everything. Technically, the film has been made well and there are those few scenes wherein the energy levels come down due to slow etching at critical points. Overall, this is a film which suits the regular audience and family folks. At the box office, the film has good chances of success.
Verdict: Enjoyable but a bit slow in second half
