Among this week’s new releases, “35 Chinna Katha Bhaini,” directed by Nanda Kishore Imani, and featuring Nivetha Thomas and Vishwadev Rachakonda, stands out under Decent Promotions. Let’s dive into the review and see how the film fares.
Story:
The film revolves around a small middle-class family in Tirupati. Satya Prasad (Vishwadev Rachakonda) and his wife Saraswati (Nivetha Thomas) lead a content life with their two children, Arun (Arun Dev Potula) and Varun (Abhay Shankar). The couple is determined to provide their children with a better future. However, Arun’s persistent questions, especially regarding mathematics, leave them perplexed. Arun struggles with his math subjects, raising concerns about whether he will score the minimum 35 marks to pass. How does this situation affect Saraswati’s life, and how does Arun ultimately succeed? The answers to these questions form the crux of the story, which unfolds on the silver screen.
Plus Points:
This movie gives Telugu audiences the satisfaction of watching a genuinely ‘good’ film after a long time. From the beginning, the story, background music, and the atmosphere of Tirupati create a refreshing and enjoyable experience. The entire movie remains engaging, especially the school scenes, which are filled with humor.
The second half of the film builds interest, and the performances by the cast, from young actors like Arun to seasoned actress Gauthami, are commendable. Nivetha Thomas deserves special mention for her portrayal of a dedicated housewife, loving wife, and caring mother. Her performance, particularly in the second half, is outstanding, and the emotional dialogue with her son regarding the number ’10’ is impactful.
“35 – Not a short story” – A Heartwarming Family Drama ..!”
Vishwadev Rachakonda, who plays her husband, delivers a strong performance, with every dialogue feeling meaningful. Priyadarshi, who portrays a slightly negative role, impresses with his expressions in certain scenes. The young actors, Arun and Abhay, bring natural acting to their roles, making the emotional elements of the movie truly touching.
Minus Points:
The first half of the movie feels a bit slow at times, with a couple of scenes dragging. Additionally, the overall storyline is relatively simple, which might disappoint those seeking novelty.
Gauthami’s character could have been portrayed with more emotional depth. In some scenes, the emotional impact could have been enhanced, especially in the interactions between Arun and Nivetha Thomas during the second half, which could have been better placed earlier in the film.
Technical Aspects:
The production values of this film, brought to life by Suresh Productions, are impressive. Vivek Sagar once again delivers with his signature music, enhancing both the background score and songs. Niketh Bommireddy’s cinematography beautifully captures the natural visuals of the Tirupati region, making it visually appealing. TC Prasanna’s editing is crisp and neat.
Director Nanda Kishore Imani’s work is noteworthy, bringing a familiar yet engaging narrative to life. His blend of emotions, comedy, and solid performances from the actors ensures an enjoyable experience.
Verdict:
Overall, “35 – Not a Short Story” lives up to its name and offers more than a simple tale. It is a movie that will resonate with audiences who go in with modest expectations. Amidst the slew of big-budget films, this movie stands out as a small yet heartwarming family entertainer, making it a great choice for this weekend despite a few minor flaws.
Release Date: September 05, 2024 Telugu Bullet Rating: 2.5/5
Cast: Vijay, Sneha, Meenakshi Chaudhary, Prashanth, Prabhudeva, Mohan, Premji Director: Venkat Prabhu Producers: Kalpatti S Aghoram, Kalpatti S Ganesh, Kalpatti Suresh Music Director: Yuvan Shankar Raja Cinematography: Siddharth Nuni Editor: Venkat Rajen
The Greatest of All Time directed by Venkat Prabhu and starring Tamil star Dalapathy Vijay alongside Sneha and Meenakshi Chaudhary, hit theaters with high expectations. Let’s dive into the review of this Tamil-Telugu bilingual release.
Story:
The story revolves around Gandhi (Vijay Joseph), who secretly works for India’s special anti-terrorist squad. During a mission in Kenya, he crosses paths with notorious mafia don Menon (Mike Mohan). Later, while on another mission with his wife Anu (Sneha) and son Jeevan, things take a drastic turn. The movie unfolds as it explores the consequences of that mission, the evolving relationship between father and son, and ultimately, how they end up on opposite sides. To find out what happens to Jeevan (Junior Vijay) and how the story concludes, you’ll need to watch the film.
Plus Points:
Dalapathy Vijay shines as the movie’s highlight. While we’ve seen his signature style and heroism before, his portrayal in this film, especially in the negative shade, is impressive. Prabhudeva, Jayam Ravi, and Prashant deliver solid performances in their respective roles.
Sneha does justice to her role, while Meenakshi Chaudhary impresses with her key scenes, including her glamor show. The second half of the film picks up pace, delivering high moments with Vijay’s powerful dialogues and a climactic showdown featuring commentary on a Chennai-Mumbai match that will please fans. The cameos of Trisha and Siva Karthikeyan in the second half are also noteworthy, adding to the film’s appeal.
Review: “The Greatest of All Time” – Truly the Greatest?
Minus Points:
Unfortunately, “The Greatest of All Time” falls short of expectations. The lengthy runtime makes the movie feel stretched, especially in the first half, which struggles to engage. The film’s plot bears a resemblance to the Hollywood movie “Gemini Man,” which may disappoint those familiar with it. For others, the story may feel somewhat fresh, but it’s not particularly exciting.
Some scenes are over-the-top, lacking logic and becoming irritating. Meenakshi Chaudhary’s character doesn’t have much significance, feeling more like a token presence. Additionally, several predictable scenes and the post-climax portion, particularly for those who have seen “Gemini Man,” fail to impress.
Technical Aspects:
Production values are a mixed bag. While some aspects are well done, others fall short. Technically, Vijay’s de-aging look is commendable, and the team manages to present him convincingly in his younger avatar. However, the background VFX work in some scenes appears weak. Yuvan Shankar Raja’s songs are average, though his score elevates a few scenes. The cinematography is good, but the editing could have been tighter.
Director Venkat Prabhu, known for bringing something new to the table, seems to have missed the mark this time. While he incorporates fan-pleasing elements and attempts to adapt the “Gemini Man” concept to suit Vijay, his direction lacks the impact of his previous films.
Verdict:
Overall, The Greatest of All Time showcases Vijay’s talent, especially in a negative role, which will thrill his fans. However, despite a few decent moments, the film falls short of delivering a “wow” factor. With a stretched storyline and a predictable screenplay, those expecting something fresh from Venkat Prabhu may leave disappointed. Ultimately, the film doesn’t quite live up to its ambitious title.
The much-anticipated Dawoodi song from Jr. NTR’s latest movie Devara, directed by the Man of Masses, has finally dropped. Over the past few days, the film’s team has been building excitement, promising that NTR will captivate audiences with the Dawoodi song in this action-packed entertainer helmed by Koratala Siva. The makers have now released the song’s video, and it’s living up to the hype.
Devara’s New Song is Out Now – Don’t Miss It!
Tarak steals the show with his dynamic presence in this duet penned by Ramajogaiah Shastri. The stunning Janhvi Kapoor, who plays his sister-in-law, also adds her charm to the song. Anirudh Ravichander’s mass beats elevate the energy, making the dance performances by NTR and Janhvi electrifying. Fans are raving about the song’s visually captivating appeal.
Overall, Dawoodi has skyrocketed the expectations for this movie. Jointly produced by NTR Arts and Yuvasudha Arts banners, Devara is all set for a grand worldwide release on September 27.
