It is Telugu new year UGADI for all of us and much more
bigger festival for fans of Pawan Kalyan as the Power Star’s “Sardaar Gabbar
Singh” releases with lots of hopes and anticipation.. Director Bobby who
earlier directed “Power” has directed Powerstar this time.. Eros produces the
film along with Sharath marrar.. Kajal Aggarwal plays the female lead.
Plot: If you have seen the trailer you have seen it all..
Rattanpur and its surroundings are under clutches of cruel Bhirav Singh(Sharad
Kelkar) who grabs all the fertile land for mining . It is then our Sardaar
gabbar singh arrives as CI to the town.. So you have to watch on Big screen how
Gabbar singh helps the villagers and wins the heart of the princess Arshi
(Kajal).
One man show of Sardaar..
Pawan kalyan wants to continue the tradition of Gabbar singh
like that of James Bond. He himself has provided the Story and Screenplay.
Pawan Kalyan as an actor has given more than double what his fans are waiting
to see on screen… There are good number of action sequences … He is cool and
fresh in romantic scenes with Kajal .. there are not many one liners like in
the first part but this time he tried good dance movements and he even imitated
his brother the Megastar chiru with very famous Veena step from Indra.. It is
completely mass oriented subject and so it is entirely on his shoulders and he
is at his usual best..
Kajal for the first time shares screen with Pawan Kalyan and
she is gorgeous as princess. She is also big plus for the film.
Sharad Kelkar plays the man villain Bhirav Singh. He acted
in lot of hindi serials and recently dubbed for Prabhas for Baahubali(hindi).
His voice is his biggest asset and he plays his part well.
Ali is seen as Samba. Mukesh Rishi, Brahmaji , Tanikella Bharani,Krishna
Bhagawan, Rao Ramesh, urvashi etc play crucial roles.. Brahmanandam role is
good this time. Laxmi Raai does item.
Kabir as sidekick and Sanjana as villian’s wife are wasted.
Good first half..
The plot and premise are neatly set up and the way Gabbar
Singh enters the Rattanpur.. his meeting with the Kajal .. And the way the Hero
jovially takes charge and brings the things into his control and his bigger
tiff with the villain at the interval.. All summed up makes promising first
half..
Graph comes down towards the routine climax
It’s after 30 mins after the interval break.. Everything
that ran smoothly till then starts rushing up and at the same time becomes repetitive…
one mass song “Khakee Chokka” is badly pictured in foreign locales. While Pawan
dancing for chirus Song is good but the entire wrapper of that Sangeet dance
competition is badly choreographed. It
is poor follow up for the brilliant Gabbar singh’s Anthakshari episode. And Climax turns out be routine shooting fare.
Other departments…
DSP music is not up to the mark of the first Gabbar Singh.
But “O Pilla Subhanalla…” and “Tauba Tauba” stands out musically and on screen
.. Nee chepakallu comes next.. Arthur Wilson provides rich visuals. Director
Bobby handles the introduction scenes and elevation scenes well but not
conclude it safely.
Purely for Pawan Kalyan..
After having the bad
experience with Jhonny.. Pawan kalyan did not experiment much and tried out the
time tested plot with needed commercial ingredients. He has done his best in
giving what his fans are waiting for… Flaws are seen in second half due to
rushed up shooting which happened mostly towards the end. Pawan Kalyan..
Romantic track… Definitely a bunch of good scenes and a decent first half
collectively make it an ok watch. Now it
all depends on Power Star’s stamina to keep the collections ringing ….
