Khaidi No. 150

Well, the anticipation was that of Megastar returning to big screen after 10 years. Nothing else. if you have watched "Kaththi", then it will be obvious that you will like it better than the telugu version. As it is a remake, I have to compare the two movies, or else the whole sense of remake would be simply be stupid. The only good or better that happened with this movie is Chriru, rest all is just a ride of stupidfest of the writers, director and as well as the musician. I have one simple question. "Why would you remake a movie which is already a blockbuster in other language and with this level of globalization many people have watched it. why?". This doesn't make any sense at all. Coming to the writing, its just the hero worship of the protagonist rather than focusing on the story or the script. Few characters were created just for that, for example: Doberman. If a Star comes to big-screen after a long gap, all he needs is a powerful story with gripping screenplay, definitely not this kind of a movie. So, please make some sensible movies and employ some sensible writers and please come out of the notion that you should entertain the mass audience. there are other kind of people too who watch movies. Please. Have some sense.

One of the worst movies ever by the MEGA STAR. For his comeback film that too 150th he chose a subject which was already made in Tamil which is block buster in Tamil but the Telugu version failed miserably. The charm of his acting and screen presence has lost its value. The hype created before the release just fell flat. This movie is only for the die hard fans of Chiranjeevi as they will like and praise the movie even if doesn't work well. Screenplay is also not too good , music also average except for one song ( SUNDARI ) The plot loses its way as the movie completely revolves around the HERO. it had a very good subject but Over hyping the ACTOR as his comeback film and 150th film it fails and could not connect with the Audience.

Well I am not a die hard fan who watches on first day. I bought a ticket to watch from one of my friends.. So don't take it as a review by a fan who is biased. Mine is an unbiased review. It is a great family entertainer. This movie does not have any vulgar scenes. So you can have fun watching this with your family. Chiru fans seemed less vocal and well behaved which I didn't expect on the very first day of his comeback movie. So I watched the movie pleasantly.

Now coming to the review: 1. Chiranjeevi- Great actor for a reason. His comeback was highly anticipated from the audience and he did a great job. His style, dance and action were great. There is no scene in the movie which showed any decline of Chiru's performance. He is still great. I can't believe he is 60+ years old. I appreciate his dance moves for such an aged person. He looked young and energetic. His action is awesome. The interval fight scene stands out! 2. Kajal- Looked hot and did good acting. Her role was limited and she gave her best. 3. Ali,Brahmanandam: Great fun watching them. Specially Brahmanandam garu's character was a complete surprise. 4.Others: All the other actors did well and the villain was decent.

Positives: 1.Highlights of the movie were the 1st half interval scene & 2nd half coin fight scene. 2.Dance moves of graceful Chiru is always a treat. 3.Songs are beautiful with great costumes. 4.DSP gave great background music. Raised the movie level. 5.VV Vinayak's direction was excellent. I was more impressed with the movie than the trailer. The trailer looked average but after watching the movie I really appreciated his direction.

Negatives: Nothing. I didn't find any. Although if you are a womanizer then you will not have any sexy scenes to watch and this is expected of Chiru's movie(because they are mostly intended for all including children). However I felt the villain could have been someone who spoke Telugu. His dubbing was not that great but he did a decent job and was not awkward. So nothing really negative.

Conclusion: Overall an excellent comeback movie from the Megastar. The social message in the movie also makes it a must watch. Even though it is a remake, one should not look down because it has brought a nice story to our Telugu audience. There are few changes in the story. I appreciate the superiority it showed over the original Tamil version. This movie can also be commercial super hit because the response I saw around during the movie was incredible. Huge positive response!! I appreciate all the artists of this movie and wish them all the best!

Writing this for the sake of Non-Telugu Audience. Don't let the rating fool you into watching this cliché-filled drama made worse with over-the-top acting and lame humor. It's a movie suited to last decade, not worth your 142mins. The bloated rating is a result of Actor's huge following, and something around 5 would've been ideal. You can probably go for it if you like Masala flicks which are light on brain, we have better ones in same genre though.

Chiranjeevi film carrier ending.... Remake baba chiranjeevi. Total megha family depending on remake films.
