Creative director Krishna Vamsi is back after a brief gap with a movie named Ranga Maarthaandada. The film has hit the screens today on the auspicious Ugadi festival day. Let’s see how it fares.
Story: After enjoying a rousing career as a renewed theatre actor Raghav Rao (Prakash Raj) bids goodbye to to the stage to allocate quality time to kids children? In the process, he and his wife Raju garu grapple with the general disconnect,forms the crucial crux.
Performances: Prakash Raj is yet again impressive in his role as a natural performer. His acting as stage artists brings depth to the proceedings.
Ramya Krishnan is equally good in her performance oriented role. Anasuya acted beautifully in the modern day independent women role.
Shivamitmika Rajashekhar and Rahul Sipligunj is impressive in their key roles. Ali Reza, Satyanand, Ali among others are fine is their extended cameo roles.
Last but not least, important role portrayed by brahmanandam brought to life to the Prakash Raj and Brahmanandam segment.
Technicalities: The character esblishment between Raghava and Chakrapani by interlinking mythological parallels between Duryodhana and Karna are terrifically explored.
Despite having starwelt dialogues and smart use of body language and minute gestures, she communicated her character is the wind beneath her husband’s wings. Aadarsh Balakrishna, Anasuya Bharadwaj, and Ali Reza make a mark in their brief roles while Shivathmika Rajashekar needs more time to come of age as a performer.
The director Krishna Vamsi’s re-built himself after a brief dull period as he presented himself to relate to the current generation audience.
Analysis: Krishna Vamsi’s act and scene established is fine is he somewhere in lost connectivity with the old school drama with the contemporary generation.
If he would have worked even better the results would have been much better. To summarize, Ranga Maarthaanda is impressive at parts but surely not everyone cup of tea.
Verdict: Emotional Exhaustion!
Rating: 2.5/5
