Devadas

May be it is due to the dosage of mafia movies nag has done like ragada, don, super, don sreenu,Bhai makes nagarjuna's looks and acting seem routine and obvious which lacks freshness but nanis performance moves our state of mind from boring and routine to slightly interesting. Routine and common first half screenplay where at one point we doesnt seem story moving forward. Naveen chandra and sharath kumar were wasted.

9/10

One of the funniest films I have seen in a while. The bromance between Das and Deva is beautiful and funny.

Plot: When father of Don Deva (Nagarjuna Akkineni) is killed, Deva comes out of shadows to exact revenge. And after being shot he meets Das (Nani), a naive idealistic doctor down on his luck. This meeting changes both their lives.

The film starts like a gangster film and gives the impression of an action film. Lots of character and events are shown that are not very interesting and could have been edited out. The film gets interesting after 45mins mark. I am happy that I stuck to it till this point because once the momentum starts the comedy between Deva and Das is amazing. There are lots of laugh out loud moments in the film. Nagarjuna Akkineni played the role of Deva with ease, he looked like he was having fun. Nani did justice to his role as well. The lead actresses did not have much to work on but they looked really pretty. I liked the songs Chettu Kinda Doctor and Vaaru Veeru.

At its core Devadas is light light-hearted comedy film to enjoy with family and friends. The lead duo does an excellent job carrying the film, they are the strength of this film. The film does not take itself seriously and all the drama scenes are downplayed. There are some action scenes. Also few twists here and there.

I had lots of laugh watching Devadas. Though it takes some time to get started, it is worth sticking for first 45 minutes.

It's definitely not boasting to say that Devadas is well known name in Indian household. Right from 50s, movies were made almost all the '___woods'.

When Devadas is again announced in Telugu, where Nagarjuna is the lead while his father immortalized the character earlier, it was thought is it worth a risk.

Whereas when we book a seat to checkout Nagarjuna's Devadas, a major relief is it's not "The DEVADAS", it's a Devadas.

And here comes Nani onto share the screen as Das with Nag as Deva. The story is the fight between good and bad. The villain is just a role with hardly 3appearances overall. And nonetheless the idea good and bad was still kept intact. An innocent good guy striving to change egoist bad guy is the theme and handled very well.

1. Producer Ashwini Dutt's project 2. The title 3. Nag and Nani combination Handled the script with maturity keeping upto the tag of Vyjayanti movies. An extra star was subtracted for few glitches.

I don't watch trailers for Telugu movies and the only thing I knew were actors. I had no expectations from this one. Das character is written and performed well by Nani. But Dev character was stereotypical and Nagarjuna didn't capture it well as it was weird to see him kill ppl brutally. Few songs were good. Together both actors were good which was the lifeline of the film. Comedians like Vennela Kishore and actresses didn't add to the movie to make it better. A one-time watch.

It could ave been better. Dragged a lot by unnecessary comedy. Emotion at towards the end and then a mediocre climax. Both the talents are wasted. Nagarjuna does his best. He is legend and he proved it. Nani is not bad. Everything is fine otherwise the long length.
