Krishnam Vande Jagadgurum_Lost Opportunity of the Decade




Krishnam Vande Jagadgurum


Jaraga ledu Jagannatakam…Jaragaledu Jagannatakam.

Awesome plot in binder, raw resources at disposal, eager audience to celebrate……Krish you lost a chance to produce trend setter of the decade. Rana nowhere it’s a “Khaidi” for you. The 9 minute title track lost the punch.

Movie is culmination of independently dependent superb scenes. You spend first half waiting for second half to arrive and then start waiting for the final “Dashavatar” high. But sorry, you realize at the end you are watching any other Telugu potboiler, where a hero was forced by circumstances to kill the baddie that’s it.

Rana was stone faced for most of the part with those “Heman” moves. Strangely the protagonist is not clear with his purpose till 12th reel of the movie. The movie flows with leading lady’s findings and purpose. Surprisingly supporting cast is more watchable than mail lead. Brief stint by Posani was worth mentioning.

May be high expectations from Krish or hype created by the title track or enthusiasm created by the promos…….not able to find the reason but the movie nowhere near to the likes of Vedam, Gamyam.

As the title track says…Nuvvu nilichina ee nelanu adugu,
Nee oopirilo gaalini dugu,
Nee adugula akashannadugu….

But you fail to find “Krishnam Vande Jagadgurum…. Krishnam Vande Jagadgurum… Krishnam Vande Jagadgurum”

CMGR : Ordinary Movie with Extraordinary Scenes...




Ordinary Film with bunch of ExtraOrdinary Scenes : CMGR


Right dose of ointment for all the media menace & T agitation itching. Pawan continuing the ride post Gabbarsingh and Puri found the Midas touch. Thanks to unknown aunty for serving all those coffee shots in beach (Bankong), during this scripting.

Puri tried to break the norm by introducing the movie plot with an “Fever” item number and continued the heat through out to end it with an unconventional silent climax (though graphic part was weak). Visuals of the tracks were colorful and back ground score is up to the mark of Mani Sharma. Beauty of the movies was, every character elevated at some point or the other. Tamanna is as glamorous as any other her recent movie with different mannerism this time minus belly moves.

Pawan continued his satirical saga, including one on him with élan.  Testosterone level move up in few scenes, in the order of “Extra Ordinary scene with Tamanna”, “National anthem scene with Prakash Raj” and the “Climax “ra” “raa” scene”.

The hard work of Pawan and perfect planning of Puri are clearly evident on the screen. A note about a junior dancer to the left of Pawan in the song “Extraordinary” is also worth mentioning. He deserves a break in Tollywood.

Movie equipped with all the ingredients of Pavanism, Cheguvera print at the back drop, satires, trademark gestures and dialogues with mega power.

If you are a fan of him, this is an extra ordinary movie, if not an ordinary movie with extra ordinary scenes.

Check out the screens for a MATINEE show, O Panai poddi ra ra.
