Welcome to the world of superviolence .........courtesy the greatest exponent of it ,Ram Gopal verma........
As the name suggests , this film is not for sissys ,kids or vegetarians........
........And Ram Gopal Verma himself has gone on record to say that ,as far as this film is concerned ,women should stay at home.......
That explains why the theater was 2/3 rd empty.....on the second day itself....
Because the audience has been cut down to only males ,that too the non- veg eating ,blood and gore loving types......
And what a feast for them !!
Rivers of blood flow ,enough to make a vampire overnourished for weeks.......
Women are abducted , literally in broad daylight ,and raped like whores.......
Boulders are smashed on peoples heads ,and other innovative methods of killing people like boring holes through their skulls are invented......
The place seems to be alive with rifles ,knives ,pistols ,koytas,and other such weapons.......
And masterminding all the mayhem is Nagamani Reddy ( played by Abhimanyu Singh ) ,the villain of the film......
His performance is the stellar performance of the film ,what holds the film together.....
..........For he plays with with absolute perfection , the role of a sadistic ,savage ,absolute brutal despot of a small town ,with animal- like instincts ,that too the carnivore type............
The small town is Anantpur in Andra Pradesh , and the film is based on a true enemity.........
Which means that such a person really existed !!
And who's his enemy ??......Vivek Oberoi ,who else ,who also has to murder and kill in equal measure........
And he does that with determination and skill........a good acting performance from him too........
Shatrughan Sinha does a brave effort to fit into the mighty shoes of N T Rama Rao.........but only a Telgu can tell if he succeeds........
And what a Telgu can enlighten us is also about the real-life happenings in Anantpur in the past........since they were considered worth making a film on them......
Verdict--not bad , if barbaric violence is your cup of tea......
