Janatha
Garage
is
the
bilingual
action
film,
which
stars
Mohanlal
and
Jr
NTR
in
the
lead
roles.
The
movie,
which
is
simultaneously
released
in
Malayalam
and
Telugu,
is
directed
by
Koratala
Siva.
Janatha
Garage
Story
Satyam,
a
man
who
hails
from
a
small
village,
shifts
to
Hyderabad
upon
the
insistence
of
his
brother.
He
opens
a
vehicle
repairing
shop
named
Janatha
Garage,
which
solves
the
issues
of
vehicles
and
people,
both.
Anand,
Satyam's
nephew
is
an
IIT
graduate
who
has
immense
love
for
nature
and
insists
people
to
plant
trees.
He
joins
his
uncle,
which
makes
the
functioning
of
Janatha
Garage
even
more
strong.
But,
Satyam's
fondness
for
Anand
and
their
association
irks
their
rivals,
as
well
as
his
son,
who
wants
to
be
his
sole
heir.
How
Anand
faces
and
solves
the
issues
forms
the
crux
of
the
story.

and

Janatha
Garage
and
their
performances,
here.....
Mohanlal
As
Satyam
Mohanlal
delivered
a
power-packed
performance
as
Satyam,
the
man
who
fights
against
injustice.
He
makes
a
mark
with
the
extraordinary
screen
presence
and
brilliant
dialogue
delivery.
Jr
NTR
As
Anand
Jr
NTR,
who
plays
Anand,
has
succeeded
in
matching
an
exceptional
actor
like
Mohanlal
with
his
powerful
screen
presence.
He
deserves
a
special
mention
for
the
brilliance
in
action
sequences.
Samantha
Ruth
Prabhu
Samantha,
who
essays
Jr
NTR's
love
interest
in
the
movie,
has
nothing
much
to
do
in
her
minimal
role.
But,
she
has
managed
to
make
a
mark
through
her
chemistry
with
Jr
NTR.
Script
&
Direction:
Koratala
Siva
Even
though
it
is
a
cliched
revenge
drama,
writer-director
Koratala
Siva
has
succeeded
in
making
it
an
engaging
watch,
with
the
crispy
narrative,
entertainment
factors,
and
an
impressive
climax.
Nithya
Menen
Nithya
Menen,
who
plays
a
brief
yet
important
role
in
the
movie,
has
once
again
succeeded
to
impress
with
her
charming
screen
presence.
Kajal
Aggarwal
Kajal
Aggarwal
makes
a
special
appearance
in
the
movie,
with
a
sizzling
item
number.
The
actress
sets
the
temperature
soaring
with
her
glamorous
looks
and
hot
dance
moves.
Unni
Mukundan
Unni
Mukundan
scores
as
Satyam's
son,
a
jealous,
power-hungry
young
man.
The
actor
has
proved
that
he
is
perfect
for
the
negative-shaded
characters,
with
his
controlled
performance.
Music:
Devi
Sri
Prasad
Devi
Sri
Prasad's
signature
style
songs
and
background
score
iterate
in
this
movie
too.
It
is
a
fact
that
the
musician
is
still
sticking
into
his
comfort
zone,
and
has
nothing
new
to
offer.
Cinematography:
Tirru
Tirru's
classy
visuals
make Janatha
Garage
a
complete
visual
treat.
The
cinematographer
has
succeeded
in
capturing
both
the
lighter
and
darker
aspects
the
of
the
film
with
the
same
brilliance.
Overall
View
Even
though
it
is
a
cliched
movie
which
has
nothing
new
to
offer,
Janatha
Garage
is
a
perfect
watch
for
the
audiences
who
love
action-oriented
entertainers.
Other
Technical
Aspects
Koragiri
Venkateswara
Rao's
editing
makes
the
movie
a
crispy
watch,
especially
in
the
second
half
and
climax.
The
excellent
art
direction
by
AS
Prakash
and
brilliant
action
choreography
deserve
a
special
applause.
It
is
a
fact
that
no
dubbed
film
can
recreate
the
charm
of
its
original
version.
It
is
the
same
with
the
Malayalam
version
of
Janatha
Garage.
The
real
essence
of
the
movie
is
surely
missing
in
the
highly
artificial
dialogues
and
poor
dubbing.
Verdict
A
perfect
watch
for
the
action
movie
lovers
and
the
fans
of
Mohanlal
and
Jr
NTR.
