Dongala Mutha Telugu movie Review

Story:

Sudhir (Ravi Teja) and Rani (Charmee) are married couple whose car faces a problem and nearby, they see a resort. On entering there, both of them come across unusual staff with unusual names (Subbaraju, Supreet, Brahmaji).

While Sudhir, Rani try to escape the story takes a twist with the arrival of Shiva (Lakshmi Manchu) and her assistant Richard (Sunil) who claim to be thieves as well. What happens after that forms the rest of the story.

Performances:

Ravi Teja has come up with a decent act. However, he has a mild body language and minimal energy levels in this one and this may not go well for his fans.

Charmee looks naturally seductive and she does her bit aptly. The impressive thing about her is the diction in Telugu which has come out flawlessly from her. She can start dubbing for her own voice from now on.


Prakashraj was consistent, nothing different from him. Subbaraju was effective, Supreeth brought few smiles, Brahmanandam was usual and did his bit as required. Brahmaji was unique with his body posture. Sunil was literally silent.

Highlights:

The making of the film with Canon 5D cameras


Theme song

Charmee and Lakshmi Manchu’s sensuous appeal

Drawbacks:

No storyline
Fickle comedy in second half
Analysis:
First things first, Ramgopal Varma must be appreciated for his self conviction in thoughts and beliefs. The very idea of coming up with a film in barely 5-6 days and that too with a paltry budget is commendable. Added to that, the making is technically efficient and it is on par with the regular mainstream cinema.

However, what Ramu must realize is audience is choosy and when a brand like him is coming up with a project, the level of expectation is high. While the experimental thought is acknowledged, Ramu should also realize that there is an aspect of entertainment, content required to give the audience their money’s worth.


Overall, the team must be appreciated for their efforts and the cast for their convincing performances despite a hollow script. At the same time, this is not a film meant for the regular audience or those who seek formula films.

Raaj telugu movie Review

The class hero Sumanth has now arrived in a commercial formula treat and this time he has enough ammunition in the form of the heroines Priyamani and Vimala Raman. Let us see how the film is.

Story
Raaj (Sumanth) is a fashion photographer. He loves Priya (Vimala Raman) but he loses her whereabouts and reluctantly gets married to Mythili (Priyamani). But he is unable to tell Mythili about Priya and finds it difficult to adjust with her.

However, things change and they get close. Just when things look to settle, Who is Priya? Why does she leave Raaj without a word? What happens to Raaj-Mythili’s relation after Priya’s arrival? All this forms the rest of the story.


Given his sophisticated looks, Sumanth is a total misfit to this character. He failed in romance, fights, dance and looked disinterested while enacting the emotional scenes. Despite having strong steamy scenes with Priyamani, Vimala Rama he could not deliver that chemistry.

Priyamani goes totally extreme in her skin show and does justice to her remuneration. However, she should have taken care in the make up and costumes department. Some scenes make her look like a C-grade heroine.

But she scored better than Priyamani in the makeup, costumes departments. The flip side is the dubbing for Vimala which reminded of a monotonous TV artist. Already, her performance is weak and the dubbing put her in negative scale.

Srinivas Reddy gives an overdose of adult comedy and Ali has no limits to his flavor of adult comedy. His characterization makes you feel that the old timers Nagabhushanam and Rajanala were much better.

Despite many attempts, it is clear that Sumanth fits the best for classy roles and is a total misfit for commercial and mass roles.

Either he is being misguided or he is not aware of his own limitations. If only he stuck to classy roles and sophisticated image, he would have got the backing of select audience and could have made his career as a minimum guarantee hero.

‘Raaj’ is one of those masterpieces which belong to the category of torturing the audience in every scene and camera movement.

Right from first scene, the audience goes through third degree torture and becomes a victim of the director’s creativity. The film reminds many of a C-grade Malayalam movie and if you thought that tsunamis happen only in the seas, ‘Raaj’ will give you the experience in cinema theatre.
