Keerthy’s character comes and leaves the tale as and when it suits the story but she does a good job of pulling off her kooky role.
Brahmotsavam movie review in imdb skin#
The former seems much more relaxed and in the skin of his character, he makes even the silliest of dialogues seem legible – at least in the moment. Where the film does work is when it comes to Mahesh and Keerthy’s performances. One does have to admit that it's refreshing the protagonist wants the antagonist to learn a lesson and be a part of the solution rather than just die. These plot points really demand more screen time than they’re given. While the messaging Parasuram chooses is valid and even relevant, he makes the odd choice of choosing the option of ‘tell and not show’, with Mahesh delivering long dialogues. What starts as a love story turns into an unnecessary ego war between two men and soon snowballs into a mini revolution against the banking system, nay exploitation. The film has a social message backing it up. The VFX and green screen work could've definitely been better. Parasuram also plays up a physically challenged man for unnecessary sympathy. While all that’s well and nice, he also problematically finds it comfortable to slap people (including Keerthy and Brahmaji) and infantilising his supposed girlfriend.
The love soon turns to harassment, with Mahi veering between toppling boats and bonding with strangers at airports. Mahi and Kalaavathi’s love story, apart from Kishore’s character, emanates some genuine laughs in the first half of the film while an action sequence involving a lorry in the second half invokes some unintentional laughter. Yes, yes, we know that’s how commercial cinema works – with a little bit of everything – but what happens when none of those tracks seem to reach the potential they have. Sarkaru Vaari Paata suffers from a lack of focus when it comes to the tone of the film. But what Rajendranath and Kalavaathi don’t know is that Mahi has another agenda. When reality hits, he sees no choice but to head to Vizag to collect the debt she raked up from her father, a politician and tycoon called Rajendranath (Samuthirakani). While the red flags she emanates can be seen from a mile away by his friend Kishore (Vennela Kishore), Mahi is too much in love to see any of them and she finds it easy to swindle him.
She walks into his life in a pretty saree, flowers in her hair, books in her hand, pretending to be anything but the gambling addict she really is. He puts those stalking skills to good use when he meets Kalaavathi (Keerthy Suresh). While he’s mostly easy going, he’s also prone to stalking people who owe him money to any corner of the world, irrespective of how much the amount. Despite his troubled past, he has made a name for himself and established his own finance corporation in the US. Mahi (Mahesh Babu), a money lender and debt collector, has a sad back story. Now, his mass entertainer Sarkaru Vaari Paata wobbles between being a commercial cinema where anything goes and a film that tries way too hard in drumming up sympathy for some of the side characters.
Sarkaru Vaari Paata Review: Parasuram Petla’s last film Geetha Govindam was a rom-com that was a massive hit but seemed to not grasp the concept of consent. While he comes to India to collect his debt, he decides to stay back and do his bit for the country's financial health. Sarkaru Vaari Paata Story: Mahi, a money lender, is swindled by a gambling addict called Kalaavathi in the US.
