Telugu industry has been careof for mass commercial movies. No matter how much the audience’s tastes have changed, new types of stories continue to flow, but occasionally, purely commercial films are raining collections at the box office. That’s why our heroes and director-producers often lean towards mass masala stories.
Vaishnavitej, who started his cine journey with different stories, this time he got ‘Aadikeshava’ with a solid mass story. Even though it was postponed several times… Vaishnav – Srileela acting as a pair and the film coming from Sitara’s company, the interest of the audience has continued. (Aadikeshava Movie Review)
How is this movie that finally came out to the audience? Let us learn
Story: Balu (Vaishnavitej) is a young man who grew up like a bonded child to his mother. He roams wildly with his friend. Baladur, the term we use here but… if he encounters any injustice in front of him, it is his philosophy to resist the same and fight against any number of people. He is portrayed with lot of love towards children and women.
With the help of his parents, he joins a job in a cosmetic company. During the interview itself, the CEO of the company Chitravathi (Srileela) admires him. After they both fall in love.
Meanwhile, an old man walks in from Brahma Samudram in Rayalaseema and takes the hero with him to the village to reveal him his real family which was different and also reveals his real name as Rudra Kaleshwar Reddy. Who is Rudra Kaleswar Reddy? What was his family and connection with the village? After going to Brahma Samudram, how did he fought with Chengareddy (Joju George) who was potrayed as ten-headed Ravana. Did hero end his Ravals anarchy there? If you want to know all these things, you will have to watch the movie (Aadikeshava)!
How it is: The thing that makes the protagonists… mass image. In an attempt to seem like a mass hero, films are made by choosing stories with heroic heroism and action elements. And the protagonists who come from famous families are seen to be satisfied with such efforts in the first steps. Coming from a mega family, Vaishnavtej made that effort with his fourth film ‘Adikesava’. This is a story with a combination of action, seema faction, love, sentiment and other elements. (Aadikeshava Movie Review) Apart from a couple of twists and turns, there is nothing new in the story. The director narrates the story the same way similar to old faction movies. The first half of the movie is filled with friendship, love and family. A turn for break time.
The second half of the story takes place with the collision with Chengareddy in the Brahma Samudram of Seema. In this story, love, family ties, drama, anarchy in the village, politics and other topics though present, are not touched strongly.
There are many scenes in the movie that sounds not logical. Although the writing lacks here, the director’s conveying is clear. Whatever he wanted to convey has been clearly brought to the screen with his technical team.
How the cast did it: Vaishnavtej looks like a guy next door in the first half. In the second half, Rudrakaleshwar Reddy was seen showcasing a heroic performance. He did full justice to his role. Srilila’s beauty is an added advantage. She once again showcased her talent in songs. Her character is introduced only through dance scenes. Radhika and JP will be seen as Vaishnavitej’s parents. (Aadikeshava Movie Review) Although Joju George looks like a brutal villain… the role looks not effective on screen. Aparnadas, Suman, Tanikella Bharani and others acted to the extent of the roles. Sudarshan smiled here and there. Technically the film is superior. visuals are impressive. Jeevi Prakash’s songs are not so memorable but Background music is good. All other departments have performed well. But it seems story lacks novelty.
Finally…: Aadi Keshava… another normal action movie (Aadikeshava Movie Review)
