Katamarayudu Movie Review

Story

Katamarayudu (Pawan Kalyan) leads a do-gooder life with a high dosage of violence for the evil in a certain village with Rayalaseema backdrop with four brothers and his friend-cum-lawyer, Ali. Rayudu is against women and the concept of marriage as he majorly feels that a woman entrant into the family might disrupt the relationship between the brothers who are bonded like Pancha Pandavas.

Rayudu's three brothers (Apart from Ajay) and Ali are actually in love and the fact is hidden from the caring brother, respecting his opinion and also out of extreme fear. This makes the team hatch a plan and eventually gets him close to Avantika (Shruthi Hassan), who actually visits Rayudu's village for a cultural event. Avantika reminds Rayudu of his childhood girlfriend, and a series of cooked up scenarios by Rayudu's brothers and lawyer-friend gets both Rayudu and Avantika into the love mood set.

Avantika's father, Nasser (Ex-Justice), a man who practices and preaches non-violence, supports his daughter's decision and asks the former to introduce him to his future son-in-law. It's only upon the journey does Avantika realize that Katamarayudu is not a peace loving person similar to the characteristics of her family members but instead, the opposite of it.

Rayudu persuades Avantika and wins over her father's trust through the non-violence path. He eventually saves the entire family from the wrath of Tarun Arora, the supposedly third antagonist of the movie after Pradeep Rawat and Rao Ramesh.

Read on to know how the cast and crew members of Katamarayudu have fared for the movie..

Pawan Kalyan

Pawan Kalyan

What else do you need when there is Pawan Kalyan all the way? His attitude, typical dialogue delivery, mannerisms and few unusual dance moves make it a paisa vasool watch for his fans. He excels in comical and romantic sequences and is definitely the biggest plus of the movie.

Shruthi Haasan

Shruthi Haasan

Shruthi Hassan is neat with her character and has a restricted amount of scope in the movie. Her dance moves are worth mention.

Rest Of The Cast

Rest Of The Cast

Rayudu's brothers does justice to their roles and it's Ajay who stands out in terms of performance amongt the other brothers.

Pradeep Rawat and Tarun Arora appear on screen for the sake of antagonist characters but their roles lack clarity and importance. It's Rao Ramesh who steals the show with his language dialect and dialogue delivery.

Ali is entertaining and is sure to tickle your funny bone at parts.

Director - Kishore Kumar Pardasani

Director - Kishore Kumar Pardasani

Kishore Kumar Pardasani (Dolly) has taken the story line from Veeram and has added quite a few ingredients in order to satisfy the Telugu audiences. However, the screenplay could have been even snugger with powerful antagonist characterization and strong flashback line for a better revenge episode.

Editor - Gautham Raju

Editor - Gautham Raju

Editing by Gautham Raju seems a bit choppy as transitions from one scene to the other and from songs to sequences, are very haphazard and not smooth.

BGM & Music - Anup Rubens

BGM & Music - Anup Rubens

However, Anup Rubens, the music director comes with a mixed package. Mira Mira Meesam song and the hero introduction BGM at the very beginning of the movie gives a top-notch feel making the audience go ecstatic over his work, at the same time he fails to impress with rest of the average songs and very ordinary BGM. Pawan Kalyan's screen presence deserved a better quality level of background music.

Verdict

Watch Katamarayudu if you are a Power Star Pawan Kalyan fan without forgetting papers for celebration.
