Racha...my view

His name contributed to the title and his charisma worked wonders for the movie. All the way Ram Charan.

The movie is not one of the intellectual movies but full plate Andhra meals for “Mega” Fans. From reel 1^st to 12^th name of mighty mega star has liberally been used, which worked in the favour of the movie.

Charan has come up with a stunning screen presence and of course with trade mark dances and stunts.  He is only three movies old and already in the big league with contemporary stars of his uncle Pavan Kalyan.  

It reminds me how Chiru planted his early roots post blockbuster “Khaidi”.  It is said that the core strategic team of trio “Chiru, Allu Arvind and Kodandarami Reddy (Director of ”Khaidi”), used to plan the movie mix for Chiru.

Coming back to Charan, he is arrived as Mass hero with “Racha” post brief hiatus of “Orange”, though it was a clean sensible movie. The movie hit the bulls eye with the success mantra of typical mass elements i.e songs, dances, stunts and glamour. If you talk about glamour “Tamanna” is luring through out the movie. Specially the legendary “Vana vana Velluvai”, she is notch above the original lady Vijaya Shanti, with those Shakira moves and wet saries. Her kitty is probably full with more masala movies, by this time, with this success.

The presence of Mani Sharma can be felt after a long time.   Highlight is the remix of “Vana Vana Velluvai” song and the back ground score. Album of the movie is average, but with the kind of picturisation the songs are more entertaining on screen.

A person needs special mention here is the director, Sampant Nandi.  A pharmacist by education has shown a maturity of veteran in handling the movie of masses. Cavity, Starch, caramine and Narcotine are perfectly blended to make this medicament full of adrenalin rush.  Kudos to him, the way he handled a story. Though the story line is run of the mill, the crisp screenplay and the multi layered revelation in the second half is praiseworthy. The supporting caste is up to their metal. Almost all the major comedians of Tollywood can update their CVs with this movie.

The collection horizon is safe till “Eega” by Rajamouli is released. Surely this Cherry movie is a cheer moment for RBS Choudury (the producer) and distributors. The mix of Telugu and Tamil caste is another positive sign for collections in other territories of Tamilnadu and Kerala.

Guys….if you are missing Mighty mega start, watch this movie. A mini Mega Power star is in the making. .....................Venkatesh.
