Duvvada Jagannadham

Plus: 1. Allu arjun performance 2. Pooja hegde glamour 3. Songs(except box baddali poye) 4. Cinematography 5. Production values 6. Different ending Minus: 1. Rehashed story of gentleman 2. No valid reason for shastri becoming DJ 3. Crass comedy 4. No emotions Verdict: Allu saved this routine entertainer

DJ, right from the first minute, is a complete package of Masala. It is too high on comedy and action, what people look for to make them entertained. The story was above average, creates conflicts, interesting to watch. Pooja Hegde was stunning and gorgeous. The antagonists were okay, could have been stronger. There were multiple things which didn't seem to be believable although they did add to the masala entertaining the audience with loads of comedy and action.

If you want to get entertained, this is a proper package and you shall like it. If you look up to why this and why that, you might still like it.

Not a must watch movie but if you have a lot of time or you are a fan of allu arjun then you can watch it.

Dj:Duvvada Jagannadham (2017):

When we buy a ticket for an Allu Arjun film, we known what we sign up for: a popcorn entertainer, nothing more or nothing less. But with Sarrainodu he tried an entire "Oora Mass Role" which may brought him a super hit but critically the movie was panned.So when he teamed up with Harish Shankar,we may not expect a different movie but entertainment is guaranteed at least in parts.So how is the movie?

Plot:

Dhuvvada Jaganadham(Allu Arjun) is a small time brahmin boy who goes against all odds and helps others. Seeing this quality of his, a high-profile cop(Murali Sharma) asks him to become DJ, a man who fights crime in disguise.This is the same time when Dhuvaada falls in love with Pooja(Pooja Hegde) the daughter of a high profile minister(Posani) involved with yet another crime lord Royyala Naidu(Rao Ramesh) who also operates in disguise.On the other hand, DJ decides to take on Royyala Naidu in his mission but does not know who he is in actual life. Rest of the story is as to how Duvvada Jagannadham alias DJ manages to finish Royyala Naidu.

Plus Points:

1)Pooja Hegde: After a long time,I found an actress in a movie to be a real gorgeous lead.She may have same limited clichéd glamorous role but her glamour is the major pro of the movie.Her bikini show is one of the most eye stunning beauty in Indian Cinema.She matches equal steps with Bunny and her chemistry with the star hero is just awesome.

2)Other Performances: Allu Arjun looks stylish in Dj role.Rao Ramesh emulates his dad, Rao Gopala Rao from Aa Okkati Adakku and does his best.Subba Raju is decent.

3)Gudilo Badilo song: A chart buster already.Visually the song looks ravishing with beautiful locations and neat choreography.

4)Dialogues: Harish has written some genuine funny dialogues which worked most of the time and made a lot of clichéd scenes bearable.Harish Shankar has left his stamp as writer than director. He is known for writing clever punch lines and he has many such here.

Minus Points:

1)Routine story and Screenplay: Dj runs on the same lines of Shankar's Gentleman where a Brahmin Caterer is a secret vigilante (Which is not at all a secret here). But the screenplay is so predictable and clichéd.If not for Harish's dialogues this movie could have been a complete disappointment.

2)Duration: Throughout the movie's run time I have frequently checked my watch.Movie is so much lengthy with no matter at all.

3)Allu Arjun as Brahmin guy: Allu Arjun severely tried to be a Brahmin guy as naturally as possible.But we can clearly see that he is trying to,so he definitely didn't give his best output.

So,Dj is a routine commercial entertainer saved by Pooja Hegde's glamour,Harish's dialogues.

My rating 5.5/10

Overall its fantastic movie.. Allu always stylish acter.
