#BRAHMOTSAVAM 2016 REVIEW MOVIE#

Mahesh BabuвЂ™s performance, rich production values and camera work works in this movie that has many issues. Srikanth Addala as writer and director has failed this time.Д«rahmotsavamВ has a grand theme but the director failed to narrate the movie in a convincing way as it is laced with tedious sequences and unending songs. The movie is killed by bad screenplay and worse editing. Mickey J MeyerвЂ™s music is good but the background score composed by Gopi Sundar is not perfect. Although the film is set in Vijayawada, it is primarily filmed in a set environment and Tharani has brought in the atmosphere of the city in his sets. Padmashree Thota TharaniвЂ™s grand production design is another major plus. The renowned cinematographer has not only filmed in the brightest possible way as the film is all about celebrations, he also filmed in the most creative way. R RathnaveluвЂ™s splendid camerawork works wonders. Revathy and Jayasudha have lent credence to the story with their acting. Pranitha has a brief role but has added glamour to the screen. Kajal Aggarwal has got an important role and she looks beautiful. Vennela Kishore in the second half in a brief role also is good. Whenever he mouths the dialogue, he brings liveliness to the movie. Sathya Raj as Mahesh BabuвЂ™s father is good but the actor one who steals the show is Rao Ramesh. The movie is filled with dozens of actors, many are seasoned stars. His acting, his charm, his dialogue deliveryвЂ¦all are perfect to the core. The film is shot on a rich scale (grander visuals, frames filled with seasoned actors).

This is one of the richly made movies in the recent time. Despite the story and screenplay being weak, the movie shines on technical department. Most of the dialogue is too hard to comprehend. Although he takes us to various locations, it fails to impress. This idea on paper is actually great but the director has killed it with his boring narration. In the second half we are introduced to Samantha and then the hero heads off to his family that is scattered all over North India. It is only post the interval the movie tugs at our heart with its emotional point. The situation of the audience is no different from this. Just before the interval, Ram Ramesh comments - вЂњEntra life ante patalu padukovadam, kolatalu adukovdam.idenaвЂќ. and let us not forget, Mahesh sings and dances with Kajal too. The movie begins with Samantha narrating how she met the hero and immediately we are taken to Mahesh Babu and his family that is constantly singing songs, plays kolatam, performs kalyanam to Lord Venkeshwara and the like.

It is more of an attempt to pass off some disjointed thoughts put together as a movie. While the theme is grand, the narration is awkwardly tedious. This seems to have been inspired by the famous novel Alex HaleyвЂ™s Roots: The Saga of an American Family. The film has two different stories - first half of the film revolves around Mahesh Babu and his father and the second half is about Mahesh tracing his family lineage to seven generations. While his last outing with Mahesh Babu - Seethamma Vaakitlo Sirimalle Chettu focused on the bonding between two brothers, Brahmotsavam delves on the relationship between a father and a son and a son finding his roots. Right from his first movie Kotha Bangaru Lokam, director Sreekanth Addala has written stories that are rooted in family structure.

Already disgruntled Rao Ramesh canвЂ™t take it more and leaves the joint family. His brother-in- law, who is already feeling low because all the credit is going to Sathya Raj, is hoping to marry off his daughter (Pranitha) to Mahesh Babu but Mahesh Babu falls in love with his fatherвЂ™s friendвЂ™s daughter Kasi (Kajal). His son played by Mahesh Babu also follows his path but he faces one problem - his brother-in- law cum business partner (Rao Ramesh). A rich industrialist in Vijayawada played by Sathya Raj has only one ambition in life - to live with all his extended family and lead life filled with celebrations and festivals.
