Balupu: Telugu Movie Review

Telugu Movie Review: BALUPU

Mass Maharaja Raviteja after long time came with another mass entertainer Balupu. Gopichand Mallini came with this Balupu after his previous directorial venture Bodyguard was a Blockbuster. Even Sruti Hasan is come from Gabbar Singh success. Lets see how it fared at Box Office? Does Mass Maharaja break his flops streak??

Cast: Ravi Teja, Sruthi Hassan, Anajali, Prakash Raj, Brahmanandam, Asutosh Rana and more.

Plot: Ravi Teja works as an loan recover officer and stays with his father Prakash Raj in Bangalore. In the mean Raviteja will get to know how Sruthi Hassan along with Brahmanandam (Crazy Mohan) fools fellow people with their ideas and Ravi teja plans to teach a lesson. In the process Sruthi falls in love with hero and informs her parents about her love and breaks her previous engagement. Now Asutosh Rana entires scene and kidnaps Sruthi Hassan. Need to watch movie to know who is Asutosh Rana? Why he kidnaps Sruthi Hassan? What is link between Raviteja and Asuthosh Rana?

Plus Points: After Mirpakay same energy levels were carried by Ravi teja in this movie. Dialogue delivery and variations which we expect from him are pleasant and entertains audience. Comedy scenes with Brahmanandam worked out really well. Entertaining first half with full dose of comedy makes you enjoy the movie a ton. Brahmanadam's gangman style dance moments will remain highlight in movie. Interval twist was good and laid very good foundation for second half. Anjali in Flash back episode was good and glamorous.

Minus Points: Movie was carried with high energy quotient in first half which was missing in second half and seems like dragged and misses charm. Preclimax scenes should have been taken proper care which effected overall output of the movie. Thaman has lost his charm and all his tones and recording seems to be like copied from his previous movies. Preclimax comedy scenes like jamping japang dance was monotonous and effected the flow of movie.

Verdict: Is Raviteja back??? May be a bit if proper care would have been taken in second half by director. Cheap comedy in climax, placement of song before climax should be chopped to make movie more crispy. Movie goes well in B & C centres, but misses charm for A centres. Audience who like Ravi Teja energy levels and variations can go and watch, remaining its up to you.

Prema Katha Chitam - Telugu Movie Review

Movie Name: Prema Katha Chitam

Cast: Sudheer Babu, Nanditha and Praveen

Director Maruthi after his last 2 ventures EE Rojulo and Bus Stop came with an interesting subject called Suicide and mixed horror elements to make the movie more interesting.

Plot: Sudheer, Nandita and Praveen three friends meet in a cafe and decide to commit suicide and selects a farmhouse outside the city which is haunted by a Ghost. In the mean Giri another friend also joins them in dhaba and decides to join them in committing Suicide. Things seems pretty cool and then Nandita slowly falls in love with Sudheer. Praveen tries to help Nandita and convince her to proceed each other sexually so that Sudheer mind can be directed from Suicide. Will all commit suicide?? What will Nandita does after hearing Praveen suggestion?? what was haunting the farmhouse and how they resolve the issue need to see at Big Screen.

Plus Points: Intresting concept from Maruti and mixed thriller elements brilliantly. Comedy and adult dialogues at right mixture which makes the movie more fun. Sudheer improved in acting compared to his first movie SMS. Nandita was looking pretty good and her emotions where good in dramatic situations where she turns to ghost. Praveen and Giri has done an wonderful job and justified there presence in the movie with good timing. Background Music was convincing. Dravpadi Vastrabranam scene makes you laugh most and came out thoughtfully.

Minus Points: Snail walking first half and peaks pace only at interval time where twists are revealed and gives good foundation for second half. Some unnecessary scenes in first half would have been chopped. Very weak and silly climax makes the movie hazy.

Final Verdict: As the movie made at modest budget of 2 crores, the amount can be easily collected as its seems movie will work at A center as like his previous movies. Watchful second half makes audience to seat and watch movie but weak climax may hamper the outcome of movie. My suggestion stay at movie and watch once it telecasts at Home. Thriller movie lovers can go and watch at big screen for the effects.

Dhanush has yet again proves why he deserves National Award again. Its a great love story, wonderfully scripted, intelligently directed and thoughtfully appreciated. Movie never lacked in its pace and keeps your mood high.
