BAAHUBALI 2 - The conclusion REVIEW

Cast: Prabhas, Anushka Shetty, Rana Daggubati, Satyaraj, Ramya Krishnan, Nasser

Music: M M Keeravani

Direction: S S Rajamouli

Baahubali 2- The conclusion is a visual extravaganza revealing ‘Why Kattapa Killed Bahubali?’, which created a huge buzz over the past two years. The state of the art buildings, appealing costumes, visual effects are just enough to watch the film. But Baahubali2 is not just about visual treat, it’s a emotional drama with strong characters . Sivagami (played by Ramya Krishnan) is a commanding woman who maintains justice in the kingdom. None other than Ramya Krishnan could have done this role. It’s unfair to say her performance as a positive, as it could undermine it. Nasser proves it again why he is the best character artist. The cunning face while he persuade Sivagami is a proof to it.

Satyaraj (as Kattapa) had a chance for some comedy scenes. As it’s his forte he fairs enough to bring laughter. While expressing emotions, sad or happiness, he make the audience emotional. Prabhas will most probably called as Baahubali after this film. He probably be loved more by the audience than the people of the kingdom. Devasena, played by Anushka Shetty, is her career best performance. Either it’s graceful dance or vigorous fight, she nails it. Rana Daggubati ‘s character and his portrayal of Pallvallthevan has made everyone love Baahubali more. His portrayal is that heinous and their rivalry is just awesome.

All these strong characters written by Vijayendra Prasad and Rajamouli’s gripping screenplay makes this long film interesting. The screenplay is engaging enough that one forgets about the question and get more involved in the story. The movie has back to back goose bump moments. The interval scene will give a orgasm. The intense dialogues just elevates the emotions.

M M Keeravani’s background score is a reason for hair raining moments. But the songs are average and are the only portions where the film is boring. The stunt scenes are jaw dropping except the climax fight. It’s disappointing when the film has many authentic fight scenes and the main climax is little hilarious. Anyways that is not a big concern.

Verdict: Not just visual extravaganza. A brilliant emotional rivalry.

Mayaanadhi Review

Cast: Tovino Thomas, Aishwarya Lekshmi, Illavarasu Year: 2017 Music: Rex Vijayan Direction: Aashiq Abu It took me hours to come out this film. Mayaanadhi is a type of film that traps you into its world and leaves you enthralled. In the opening sequence we hear Maathan (Tovino Thomas) taking about his future and we see sky as the visual. The future is vast and so far away like the sky. Mayaanadhi is a romantic thriller. The romance of Maathan and Aparna (Aishwarya Lekshmi) is just amazing and used wonderfully to the crime part of the film. Tovino as Maathan not only looks good but also his acting is brilliant. His small facial expressions like getting frustrated for a phone call or while motivating Aparna over call adds value to the character. Aishwarya Lekshmi as Aparna Ravi is also brilliant on screen. I loved the scene where she slaps Maathan, walks away fast, and then gradually slows down till she stops. One of the biggest things that Malayalam cinema doe...

Arjun Reddy Review

Cast: Vijay Deverakonda, Shalini, Rahul Ramakrishna, Music: Radhan Direction: Sandeep Vanga When the film gets over and while you walk out of the theatre have you heard a few people saying “It’s a normal same old story” (No one did for this film). Arjun Reddy is such a film with same old story. Arjun Reddy (played by Vijay Deverakonda, about whom I will talk in a while) is a topper in his medical college and a short tempered guy with zero anger management. He meets a first year girl, Preethi (played by Shalini) and they fall in love. What happens to Arjun after his love failure is what explored in a unique way. So this not a film that you can expect every year. This is a film that has a beautiful narration enthralling you for 3 hours. The initial scenes when Arjun frequently visits Preethi are a little surprising as Preethi never utters a word whenever he visits her. You start thinking what kind of love it is. But the love that Arjun has on Preethi is explained in...

Aramm Review

Cast: Nayanthara, Ramesh, Vignesh Music: Ghibran Direction: Gopi Nainar I don’t know whether director wrote the district collector character to be women or changed it when Nayanthara was on board. Whatever it maybe, the female IAS officer has added the movie more authenticity. The decisions which Madhivadani (Nayanthara) takes towards the end of the film are emotional ones which we can’t see in a hero-centric films. We are used to hero diving into the situation, however tough it is, and completing the mission. The film is about the rescue mission of a small girl, Thanshika, who falls down inside an unclosed borewell hole. This is not that one day or one incident (like Gautham Menon’s hero tells) of Madhivadani, rather the issue is given more importance. So the most we know about Madhivadani is her name. The news channel debate that fills in the gap between two scenes is little annoying as it stresses the same point that of people of the village. The people o...
