Along with the other two villagers, Devara and Bhairava rob the ships coming on the sea. In the backdrop of some dramatic developments in the sequence, Devaraki gets into a fight with Bhairava Batch. Why did God turn against them?What is the reason for God’s absence?In the meantime, why is Deva’s son Vara (Young NTR’s character) scared?How was the love story of Vaibhav Thangam (Janhvi Kapoor)?How did the story end?What have you done for God? Thats the rest of the story.
The plus points:
As usual, NTR excelled in the roles of Devara and Varada (Vara). Tarak’s performance is the main highlight of the film. NTR’s way of acting as’ a man who instills fear in those who live with courage ‘is truly on that level. No matter what kind of film his fans want from NTR, this film went with huge visuals and ‘wild action and emotional elements’. NTR mesmerized the audience with his power-packed performance in the film.
Janhvi Kapoor made her debut in the Telugu film industry with the film Devara. Bollywood actor Saif Ali Khan is also playing an important role in the film. Saif’s performance was impressive. Koratala Siva plays NTR’s role in the film. Marathi actress Shruti Marathe is the female lead in the film. Her screen presence is also very good. Prakash Raj and Ramya Krishna are playing other important roles. Similarly, Shine Tom Chacko, Ajay and the rest of the cast also impressed with their performances in the roles of Aya.
The film is set in 1980-90. The way it has been made with a different concept in line with the commercial film is good. The underwater sequences in the climax and pre-climax are the main highlight of the film. NTR’s performance in the film is outstanding. The shots are particularly good. Accordingly, the action sequences that run in the sea have been effectively designed. Moreover, the background of the characters has also been designed according to the circumstances of the 90s. The color tone in the key scenes is very impressive. The suspense of Deva’s character from the point of view is good.
The minus points:
This’ High Action Emotional Entertainer ‘with heavy emotions and huge visuals is very impressive. Some scenes in the film are not up to the mark. He couldn’t sustain the hype throughout the film. The love track between Jr NTR and Janhvi Kapoor could have been better.
Director Koratala Siva, who has done a good job in the key scenes along with the main theme that he wanted to tell in the story, was slow in the rest of the scenes. Though there was a possibility of making those scenes even more interesting, the director was interested in elevating the emotional drama he wanted.
The Technical Department:
Talking about the technical aspects of the film. Cinematographer R. Cinematography work is wonderful. The rest of the film’s action scenes have also been shot according to the script. Editing by Sreekar Prasad is also good. Anirudh Ravichander is the music director of the film. Their performance is also good. The background music is also impressive. Koratala Siva is the director of this movie. The film has a good story and interesting characters. But in some ways, it would have been even more interesting. Producers Mikkilineni Sudhakar, Kosaraju Harikrishna and Nandamuri Kalyan Ram have produced the film without any compromise. And their build quality is fantastic.
The verdict:
This is an emotional action drama. The action sequences are good and so are the emotions. Especially, NTR’s powerful performance, Koratala’s direction and the good work received from the entire technical department. The entire film was a huge hit. However, some of the scenes are slow-paced and the love story is also not very impressive. However, NTR took the film to another level with his performance and his dialogue modulation. Overall, the film will entertain NTR fans and all other sections of the audience.
