I give the first half of this film full marks. Sadly, halfway through it becomes a completely different story.

In the beginning we spend time with NTR jr as an arrogant tour guide. He's hilarious. The heroine is feisty. Her friends are a blast. Sadly in the later half she is given nothing to do. The movie becomes a little too heavy on religious themes, the humour vanishes, and the friends kind of diappear as well. It's a shame because I think NTR jr is at his most charming when he is given comedic material. Yes, he nails drama too, but the script wasn't engaging enough to make part 2 interesting, even with the capable actors.

I gave up trying to make sense of the Egyptian antagonists. Probably best not to think about it too much. Much was done with cgi, but given how bad it looks I wonder why they didn't cut those parts, or try to go for more practical effects.

I had trouble following the tonal jumps. One moment we're clowning around with two lovely characters, the next these innocents get brutally murdered.

I wish this film could have remained within the confines of an excellent road trip film with exciting hang gliding action sequences.

To end on a positive note: the songs are amazing. The dancing is some of my favourite from any Indian film. (There's a cowboy type number that was so fun.)

In the film Shakti, Pragati offers her husband Sayaji Shinde who's panting and puffing on the treadmill a glass of milk. Ileana freaks out on a cup of hot tea in the desert, we'd recommend the audience to drink either of them or err perhaps a bottle of chilled water to sit through the 15 reels of Shakti. Water will just revive you from unconsciousness but some tender coconut water will replenish you with some Shakti, the electrolytes.

Now that one has been warned let's know what Shakti's all about. It is synonymous with power, with strength and anything omnipotent. With such a heavy title and a cash rich producer who is dedicated and passionate about translating the inanimate stuff to reality on screen, the director is a really lucky man. The director too is known for his style that he displayed in Kantri and Billa but did he learn from his mistakes from those two movies or did he pick up some not to do's from Khaleja that played with saints and a superficial story line? Did he remember to put that soul and not get carried away by the attractive and wonderful packaging?

Its a very boring and idiotic movie.Do not watch.Don't waste your time and money.
