A remake that doesn’t disappoint
Evaluate: Shekar takes on the duty of narrating a narrative that’s already identified to followers of Malayalam cinema. A Telugu remake of Joseph, the movie manages to carry its personal regardless of just a few tweaks, sticking to the soul of the unique.
Sekhar (Rajasekhar) is an ex-constable who has seen his share of ups-and-downs in his private life. He has a troubled previous along with his daughter (Shivani Rajasekhar) being the one ray of sunshine. However earlier than he will get too snug, life decides to deal him one other blow, which shakes up his life greater than ever. It implies that he’ll now take issues into his personal palms, main an investigation that turns up greater than what he anticipated.
Rajasekhar provides up his ‘indignant man’ picture to play a personality that’s mellow and crushed down by life. The primary half of the movie establishes his dynamic with the remainder of the household, together with his daughter. The emotional bits don’t look synthetic however as soon as an unlucky incident takes place, the tempo of the movie slackens. The pre-interval does what it’s presupposed to do, make you wish to know extra.
Whereas director Jeevitha Rajasekhar veers somewhat from the unique, the investigation nonetheless stays air tight, so does the story. Sekhar finds the necessity to reign in his feelings because the layers are peeled again. The dialogues which dwell on info concerning the medical infrastructure and kingpins are properly researched. The best way each minor element is solved is fairly spectacular. The movie takes you on an emotional journey after maintaining you on the sting of the seat, however the transition will not be clean. However the climax finally ends up answering all of the questions.
Rajasekhar actually carries Sekhar on his ready shoulders. His salt and pepper look is on-point and he shines within the emotional bits. Shivani too is nice in her function, with actors like Sameer and Prakash Raj completely positioned. The background music by Anup Rubens might’ve been higher.
In case you’ve watched Joseph, you’re already accustomed to the story and Shekar may not impress you. However when you’ve not watched the unique, this movie will certainly not disappoint.
