Varun Tej, unlike the other mega heroes has chosen different paths. Varun Tej is still 9 films old and is currently playing the lead role in his 10th movie which is a sports based drama. He will be seen in the role of a boxer. Kiran Korrapati is debuting as the director with this film. It is still untitled and has only completed a single schedule.
Keeping this aside, Varun Tej in his 9 films old career, has done some memorable films. Now, let us have a look at some of the Varun Tej films that can be watched without any hesitation.
Varun Tej’s debut movie. The handsome hunk has decided to go for a non-starry launch and has teamed up with Srikanth Addala, who is known for his sensible films. Mukunda is a decent launch for Varun Tej. He has given the hint that he is looking for different subjects. Mukunda is a romantic entertainer with a different concept. Both the hero and heroine will not talk to each other throughout the movie. The director has conveyed the message that to fall in love even talks are not mandatory. Mukunda’s songs are memorable and still will be played here and there. Pooja Hegde played the female lead in the movie. Rao Ramesh’s character stands out in the film as well. The dialogues are so unique.
Kanche is another different attempt from Varun Tej. By this time he has made sure that he is not looking for regular commercial entertainers. Kanche is set up in the Pre Independence Era amid World War II set up and talks a lot about casteism that prevailed those times. Even these days we hear a lot about casteism. Kanche is a film that can be watched for its beautiful cinematography and art work. Indians struggle during the World War II era was shown very effectively. Varun Tej’s performance in the role of Dhupati Hari Babu is excellent. Chirantan Bhatt has done a fantastic job as the music director. Itu Itu Ani Chitikalu song is evergreen. The climax of the film is well conceived. Though it is Varun’s second film, his performance is effective.
Varun Tej after his decent first two films has scored back to back disasters with the movies Loafer and Mister. He has got one year gap in his career as well. At the time when his career is going nowhere, Sekhar Kammula approached Varun Tej with the concept of Fidaa. Sekhar Kammula is known for his sensible yet effective romantic entertainers. His films are feel good and can be watched repetitivly many times. Fidaa is a huge blockbuster. The film has received unanimously positive response and is the biggest hit in Varun Tej’s career. Varun Tej played the role Varun who is a doctor based in the US. He comes to a village for his brother’s marriage and falls in love with his brother’s wife’s sister. Sai Pallavi played that role Bhanumathi. She is mischievious, caring and too funny. She has high regards for her self respect. Varun is a soft spoken guy. These two extremeties fall in love and the rest is history.
Varun Tej used the title of his uncle Pawan Kalyan’s iconic film. Tholi Prema lives upto its expectations. The film deals with the concept of how memorable first love is in everyone’s lives. “Gnapakalu Manchivaina Cheddavaina Yeppudu Manathone Untay..Moyaka Thappadhu” dialgoue sums up the movie. Tholi Prema is directed by Venky Atluri, his debut film. The romantic entertainer that stars Rashi Khanna in the lead roles is a super hit and one of the best that year. SS Thaman’s tunes are chart busters and played key role in the success.
Not every film would turn out to be successful. Even the failure movies of some heroes will come out as memorable films. Antariksham 9000 KMPH is one such film. This movie is directed by Sankalp Reddy who made Ghazi. The movie is set up in the outer space and Varun Tej played the role of Dev, a scientist. The movie deals with hero working on a satellite Mihira which is losing its connection. Antariksham is made as a fictional thriller but the audience haven’t connected with the movie. However, it remains as one of the decent attempts of Varun Tej.
Varun Tej’s biggest hit now. He has teamed up with Victory Venkatesh in the movie F2: Fun and Frustration. Anil Ravipudi is the director of this movie which is a comedy caper. It deals with the struggles every husband face with his wife. Venkatesh and Varun Tej are hilarious in their respective roles as struggling husbands. Tamannah and Mehreen have played the female leads in the film. The movie is a laugh riot and it is another different genre attempt from Varun Tej. Now, a sequel to this movie titled F3 is on the cards.
This film is a testimony that Varun Tej is always looking out for different scripts. Varun Tej for the first time in his career played the role that had negative shades. He is menacing in the role of Gaddalakonda Ganesh. The film is a remake to Kollywood’s blockbuster film Jigarthanda. Bobby Simha has received national award for his performance in this movie. Gaddalakonda Ganesh is a different attempt and Varun Tej came out with flying colors. He proved that he can perform any kind of role with utmost ease. Pooja Hegde has played a crucial role in the movie and the song between Varun and Pooja Hegde, Elluvochi Godaramma remix has received thunderous response.
Varun Tej in a very short span proved to be a reliable hero. He is different from others in selecting the scripts and has decent track record with successes. As said before, he is playing the boxer in his next and that follows by comedy caper F3. Let us see what this handsome hunk has to offer in the years to come.
