Performances:
Krishnam Vande Jagadgurum is Rana’s challenging role and he proves he is the perfect fit for the bill for the role of B.Tech Babu. Rana’s different getups and his dialogues and diction in dramatic characters impress you. KVJ is Rana’s career best performance considering his emotional scenes, dialogue delivery and body language.
Nayanatara is beautiful and has a significant role in the story. Her performance is good, and it’s commendable that she dubbed herself for her challenging role in the film.
Venkatesh’s cameo in song brings loads of cheers from fans while Sameera Reddy is hot in the song with sizzling dance moves.
Kota Srinivasa Rao is brief but leaves his mark, Posani Krishna Murali as Tippu Sultan and Brahmanandam as Rampam are entertaining; Raghu Babu has a crucial role, LB Sriram is fine. Others were adequate.
Technical Analysis:
Mani Sharma’s music is good and the songs were well-shot with Jaruguthunnadi Jagannatakam, Arere Pasimanasa and Sameera Reddy’s song standout. Mani Sharma’s background score is the biggest asset. Gnanasekhar cinematography is top-class and dialogues by Sai Madhav Burra are brilliant. Screenplay is good and editing is crisp. Production values are standard.
Analysis:
Director Krish takes up a challenging plotline for KVJ like his previous films and he successfully conveys a message through it incorporating the commercial. Few of the dialogues “Kala anedhi brathuku ichide kadu brathuku nerpedhi”, “Adhi kalaa nidhra lo kanedhi...idhi khala nidhra lepedhi” and Nayanatara’s dialogue on birth are quite good ones. Besides Rana, and Krish’s narration, Krishnam Vande Jagadgurum dialogues and Mani Sharma’ background score are special highlights. Songs placement hinders the flow of the screenplay. Graphics could have been much better in the first half and the film has some bloopers, nonetheless the minor loopholes can be overlooked for a meaningful film KVJ. The interval bang and pre-interval scenes, pre climax episodes are well-shot while the climax song and scenes are excellent.
Final Verdict:
A Good Watch… Go for it!!!
