For the first time, Mega hero Varun Tej played a full-length mass role in Harish Shankar’s directorial Valmiki which is the official remake of Tamil hit Jigarthanda. Pooja Hegde is the leading lady and Atharva Murali will be seen in a key role. With a decent post-release buzz, Valmiki is released today. Let’s check-in detailed.
Story:
An assistant director from the film industry ( Atharva Murali ) is struggling for a chance to direct a film on the life of a real gangster. He finds Gaddhalakonda Ganesh ( Varun Tej ) as a perfect person as he is the real gangster who is searching for. He reaches Ganesh’s home town and tries to get to know more about him from his gang. The rest of the story is about the difficulties of the director while convincing the gangster, Ganesh accepts for the director’s wish and the rest is the story.
Analysis:
A hero with a class image has been roped in for an out and out mass character and his story is directed by a man who is struggling for the debut the film’s structure itself is unorthodox, Harish Shankar’s storytelling and narration is commendable that even its two hours and fifty-minute runtime seems negotiable except for the pre-climax. Valmiki is a film with all genres. Also, It’s like full meals for the audience except for the last 30 minutes. Director Harish Shankar shows his strength in comic scenes.
Varun Tej, performance as Gaddhalakonda Ganesh stuns the audience. Pooja Hegde is superb in “Elluvochi Godaramma” Song. Atharva Murali, Mirnalini Ravi done a decent job. Also, Comedian Satya plays an important role. Brahmaji did well ( a+b)2 scene. Tanikella Bharani, Annapurnamma performed well. Mickey J Meyer songs and background score are good.
