Ramayya Vasthavayya (2013) Telugu Movie Watch Online
Directors, especially the ones who are entrusted with a project of an established actor, have become fan-pleasing authorities. That has literally made them divide each of their work into various segments designed to appeal diverse strata of the movie watching society. Ramaiya Vasthavaiya had everything in hand, a bankable producer of good taste, an in-form cast and a director of a decent commercial repute, except for a proper reason (easy money) for them to unite for a movie.
Don't indulge yourself deeply into the story of such works, which is merely a taken for granted license to flaunt the lead's histrionics or essential strengths, the factors that make them look like kings in front of fools. If this is a dose that we're very used to, the screenplay, the much hyped presentation attributing to lack of quality screen writers, is a pain, a mere rehash of the successful products of both the maker and an actor who go endlessly in their strenuous pursuit of glorifying gore and revenge.
There is an air of purposelessness in the first half catering to desperate cravers of entertainment. This is indeed a word that is enough for the makers to suffice someone with done-to-death plastic romantic tracks with an Ilayaraja number humming in the background, where manliness is attributed to the male while the so-called comparisons of rain and moon are confined to his lady love.
A flashback is a 'sure-shot' safe device to add weight to the first half. Remember the very recent Mirchi, Balupu? Harish Shankar wastes a lot of time here too. There's hardly any amount of depth in this section of the running time. The contradictory discussions add up to the list of woes. Even though lawlessness is acceptable in the supposed massy films, how is murder/revenge, meaning NTR going on a rampage to kill hundreds in the name of vengeance, more justifiable than rape, just because we're dealing with a hero?
NTR takes immense pain to talk about women and their self respect which suddenly take a backseat when the cinematographer blatantly reduces the female leads to objects of glamour in the dream sequences. How convenient? In comparision, even pointless one-liners, overacting grandmas and high handed heroines in the initial parts are very tolerable for they aren't at least pretentious in their desire to bring in some laughs.
Once the painful retraction barges in, the cracks of the inexperienced director are put to display, especially when he stumbles to end the flashback in a subsequent hurry to get back to the present, by which a viewer loses all the patience. NTR as an actor gives his best and goes out of the way to instill some momentum to the non-existent story. None apart from him come close to even registering a proper impact. Not even Rao Ramesh or a catchy soundtrack from Thaman is a worthy reason even for a diehard film lover who wants to substantiate his/her obsession.
Shruti Haasan's dubbing is not apt but the actress is surely working her way out to better her expressions film after film and the effort is surely visible. Samantha beyond adding a high profile project to her filmography, is of minimal use in this flick. Ramaiya has definitely arrived, but his stay in the theatres doesn't look to be long this time around.
