Veera Simha Reddy

Despite major flaws in the 2nd half the movie fares well coz of sr balayya swag and style carrying alone all over the movie... 2nd half could have been trimmed nearly 30nins would have been a larger impact... The most poor thing is the young balayya character that's not written well or could have omitted for a super success and his style or dialogue especially make-up is a hell .... Varalakshmi is a only notable where she fares well and the one who scores well be it affection or revenge she literally lived upto the role... Compared to "AKHANDA" this movie is a better to watch .... Overall watch if ur diehard fan of balayya.

Unlogical film .To watch this movie u have to take any drugs 😂😂😂😂 then only you can watch , must put in garbage film . From 1st scene to last hero have only an expression 😂😂😂 don't waste your time , honey rose,varalakshmi, lal done good but sruthi hassan is very boaring . There is no story only to show off heros mass scene and fights . And mass scene is like watching comedy movie fight scenes as a drunken guy fighting in a street . What a pathetic film , i think the hero didn't see any other films in indian film industry like bollywood, kollywood,tollywood and especially mollywood . In mollywood this movie don't see the theatre.

I'm late to the party with this one so i'll keep it short. I was informed by my Telugu speaking friends that NBK is still seen as a comedy piece of sorts, but has kinda sorta turned things around in the last two films. That's all I knew going into this one, expected a.....Legend (Saravana) kinda film, and while it certainly does fall under that genre, it was very different from what I thought it would be. Rather, the what was expected, the how, pleasantly surprised me.

Long story short - great music, good cinematography, questionable casting with a 90s storyline. Close your eyes and listen to the 'mass scenes' and you could totally imagine an Ajith/Vijay/Rajini still making films like these, and perhaps so would their counterparts in Tollywood. If 'bigger stars' can still make ridiculous, over the top 90s movies, I don't see why NBK should be judged for making Veera Simha Reddy. With 'proper' casting, YOU KNOW the film would have been a boxoffice hit.

I have to say, I enjoyed watching this more than Pathaan and maybe Kisi Ka Bhai as well. Watch it with friends for the collective experience.

If I am going to watch ridiculous movies, I'd rather give props to films that embrace it and make me roll my eyes the least. At least Reddy garu didn't hold down two helicopters with his bare hand, John Abraham can perhaps watch and learn.

The rating is 3 only because the age of the hero. In this movie balakrishna's mother looks younger then him. How even audience go to the theatre watch a movie. South Indian film industry should go away from this concept that a big star in their 40s-60s can play a role of college students. It looks so ridiculous. His heroine shruti hassan looks like age of his grand-daughter. Music is terrible too. Cheaply dubbed songs are anyway bad to hear. I mean honestly don't this guys feel ashamed when they go out and shooting abroad? The fight sequences are very slow and un-realistic (i can't complaint as i see south Indian dubbed movies for this reason only). The punches and kicks of hero are very slow and bad. It clearly indicates his 70 years age. Varalakshmi and Honey were decent, Duniya Vijay was let down by poorly written character, Shruti's forgettable.

I know what I am signing up for whenever I am watching a movie like Veera Simha Reddy. I am there to see the larger than life characterization, ear crunching background music effects and a lot of goosebump moments. About 10-12 years ago when I still had the patience, I used to watch many of such South Indian movies in theatres. Off late, I just wait for such movies to show up on OTT and casually watch them for such moments. With NBK's movies these moments are taken up to a different notch. 2021's release Akhanda surprised me pleasantly and it was very refreshing to see that the movie had a crisp screenplay. This and some of the ridiculous (yet unique) goosebump clips from the theatre which I watched on Twitter made me decide to go and watch this film in the theatres. Also maybe I had too much time that weekend.

Veer Simha Reddy starts off quite energetically like typical NBK movies which involve him playing the dual role. The introduction of the 'mass' and 'dark' NBK character roars on the screen with a superb background score (I hope SS Thamans releases that song soon). However this film lacks the setup for such a great character introduction. There is no suspense or any significant events leading to it. Even the flashback story for this character isn't strong enough to justify the suspense and action. NBK suits very well for his look as Veera Simha Reddy but however it cannot be said the same for him playing the role of his son again. May be it is time for him to explore playing the only senior part and then giving up the junior lead to someone else in such movies so that his main character's impact gets better even if it is for a lesser time. The lack of a decent screenplay for many of the strong characters including Bhanumathi (played brilliantly by Varu Sarathkumar) lets this film down. There are many actors and characters in the movie but they all end up becoming less significant. Duniya Vijay looks and also acts menacing as the baddie but his character doesn't carry enough threat because of how it's written. Shruthi Hassan looks gorgeous as usual and Honey Rose gets to show off her beauty in a song as well.

Veera Simha Reddy had a very good potential to be a better NBK blockbuster but it falls short and how.
