Finally the moment has come. After much delays, SS Rajamouli’s RRR starring Ramcharan and Junior NTR is out. First things first. It is grand, glitzy and engrossing.
Living up to his reputation, Rajamouli has ensured that there is a story to tell in a way audience would like without losing emotional quotient and ensuring it is bigger and beautiful to watch on big screen.
And, due credits to Vijayendra Prasad for the story. Fiction meets facts.
A technically superior RRR is a visual extravaganza. With state-of-the-art visual effects which even make gravity defying action scenes look believable, Rajamouli makes sure that audience come to the edge of the seat at regular intervals.
Senthilkumar’s camera, Keeravani’s background score and Sreekar Prasad’s editing add strength to the fare. The movie boasts of a huge star cast living up to its tag as pan-Indian film. Ajay Devgn, Alia Bhatt, Shriya Saran, Samuthirakani and a host of British artistes play their part well.
The story is set in pre-independence era.
Bheem (Junior NTR) is a man with a mission. A young girl from hilltribe is taken away by Britishers. He sets out to New Delhi to bring her back against all odds.
There is Ram (Ramcharan), a honest cop serving Britishers. Coming to know that a youngster is out in the capital to bump their officers and escape with the girl, British officials entrust Ram with the task to stop him. Without knowing that Bheem is the man he is looking for, Ram becomes a friend indeed for him. Turn of events lead to Bheem held captive thanks to Ram. Friends turn foes. The rest is what happens in their lives as both youngmen with different aspirations meet again.
Cheers to both Junior NTR and Ramcharan for transforming the ideas of Rajamouli well on screen. Their effort and dedication to excel make the film engrossing to watch. Both get equal screen space and leave right impact with their performance. Alia Bhatt plays Seetha, Ram’s ladylove. But has little to do. Ajay Devgn and Shriya Saran do extended cameos.
Though the movie lags post-interval, it picks up steam with Ramcharan’s character transformation. Loaded with stunts amd some emotional.scenes, it ends on a right note. A word of appreciation for Madan Karky whose Tamil dialogues sit well on the story.
All said, RRR, produced by DVV Entertainments and presented by Lyca, is a big-screen spectacle and Rajamouli truly deserves all the applause and accolades for his vision and execution of this mega-budget period project.
