Superstar Maheshbabu’s “Aagadu” is of course undoubtedly most awaiting movie of the season and it hits maximum number of theatre this Friday. Trailer filled with punches.. Mahesh’s hatrick producers 14 Reels and the Dookudu’s directors Sreenu Vaitla’ combination and Thamans peppy tunes and Tamanna pairing with Mahesh.. All garnered enough craze for “Aagadu”.
Single line: Aagadu tells how a clever Police Shanker puts an end to crooked local don Damu(Sonu Sood) .
Actors:
Mahesh has done this before in Dookudu.. So it is more easy now.. and this time he just amplifies his comedy timing.. He utters punch after punch with no gap while himself imitating punch dialogues.
Tamanna has finally got a chance to share screen with Mahesh.. She does her best in songs and has very less screen presence beyond that. Sruthi hassan need not act in such a cheap item.
Vennala Kishore is very apt as side kick and he gives his best yet again. Brahmaji is good. Nazar tries hard to bring out some laughs but I did not laugh at all then. But Raghu babu and Posani’s roles clicked well and provided needed pace to the first half.
MS Narayana and Brahmanandam are less than half effective than in Dookudu. Last Reel comedy of Brahmanandam will not give that Kikk always!!
Watching Rajendra prasad in the titles might expect a similar sentiment scenes between father and son like in Dookudu.. but his role disappoints as there is no scope later. Sonu Sood is good as villain who has just body but no brain.
No story.. only dialogues..
There is no story to take home as such .. and all the dialogues in the trailer are covered in first 5 minutes.. So there is lots in store for the audience. While many are good and had good timing, there are as many which are so fastly used .. that many might miss them. May be time would come when audience start hating them.
Without second thought, First half is much entertaining. It runs reasonably fast with comedy episodes of Posani, Raghubabu etc . Just like anthakshari episode in Gabbar singh, we have “Meelo evaru Potugadu” here, which is reasonably hilarious. Love track plus songs in Tamanna are good too. Audience are almost half content by interval expecting to fill in that gap with later half.
But the same old entry of Brahmanandam and redoing almost what is done before leading to expected climax making the villain (as well as the audience) the bakras belittles the second half.
Finally..
First half is fine as it had sustaining comedy episodes and nice songs. Liked “Bhel Puri” and title track on screen.. Excess of graphics spoiled Aaja Saroja a bit. Had the second half been more fresh and gripping.. it would have been worth a wait..
Nevertheless it is adequate for a weekend time pass and grab as much as collections possible for a week or two.
