Oosaravelli Review



Watched Oosaravelli today@INOX, ICON Mall

               After the disastrous Shakti, NTR comes with Oosaravelli with lot of hype and expectations. The audio of Devisri Prasad has already become a chartbuster. The movie starts with Jr.NTR being kidnapped by the terrorists. He meets Thamana who is a fellow passenger in the Bus. The movie is of the Variations of the Character justifying the title Oosaravelli.

Well, straight to the point...I feel that the movie is Average. The storyline has the required Adrenalin of a commercial flick and has the entire required plot where it has all the stamina to test the Director’s skill. I strongly felt that this characterization would be an apt one for Ravi Teja or Allu Arjun. Coz of their energy levels. Though Jr.NTR has done his part well, he doesn’t seem to be similarly built throughout the movie. He has put on weight in some scenes and he is slim in a few scenes. This might be coz of the long duration for which the movie has been taken.

Punch line: Storyline and Background

Highlights:
  • Production values of Sri Venkateswara Cine Chitra are Impeccable.
  • Cinematography is good apart from a few glitches caused by VFX.
  • Few comedy scenes and expression by Jr.NTR.
  • The VFX for the Introduction of Jr.NTR needs a special mention.
  • Thammana’s performance in the second half should be tremendously applauded. She has yet again proved that she isn’t just for the glamour part like any heroine. She has done a wonderful job for the performance part.
  • Background by Devisri Prasad just adds the required amenity to the movie.
  • Story by Vakanta Vamsi is good.
  • My favorite songs on screen are Sri Anjaneyam (it carries the emotion of the movie to the next level), Niharika Niharika, and Brathakali.


Lowlights:
  • Getting bored of Prakash Raj’s same old DON roles, who lives in abroad and comes in the middle of the movie.
  • 2nd Half seems to a bit boring with slow paced narration.
  • The entertainment Quotient in the second half could have been a bit more.
  • Yelango Yelango & Dandiya songs have been spoiled.
  • Jr.NTR’s mismatching weight throughout the movie and his hairstyle does suit to the character.


Well coming to the rating, it is 3/5 (This is my personal opinion on this particular movie - U watch the movie and decide for yourself).
