It is Friday time and so it is the time to have a look at what is hitting the theatres to entertain us. Well, this week we have only one film which was in the pipeline since quite a while and after a series of postponements managed to dare other films and readying up for release.
We are talking about the film ‘Daruvu’. This has Ravi Teja in the lead along with Taapsee Pannu while Brahmanandam and Vennela Kishore have got two very important roles to play. The film is directed by Shouryam Siva while Burugupalli Siva Rama Krishna is the producer.
Slated to be a complete wholesome entertainer, the inside talk says the comedy quotient is very high. This is an important film for Ravi Teja given his recent string of flops and also for Taapsee who is yet to register on sizeable hit as a solo heroine. Let us wish the film works at the box office then.
In what is being seen as a rather unusual situation, the film ‘Daruvu’ is gearing up to hit the screens on May 25th and till date, the film has not made a single noise to create a hype or hungama. However, the inside talk has slowly begun to come out and here are the details.
Though the audio has turned out to be weak, the picturization of the songs is said to be good. On the other hand, few are estimating that the film is going to be a silent killer and the sequences of Ravi Teja and Brahmanandam would be the highlight. The glamour feast of Taapsee would be sufficient for the masses.
Even if all these speculations are true, it is still not clear to many as to why the film of such a noted star has to come up with such silence. Of course, the overdose of ‘Gabbar Singh’ may prompt the audience to look for another entertainer and that could work in ‘Daruvu’s favour. Let us see what happens.
There is always a fine line between going naughty and going vulgar and this is usually seen in films between heroes and heroines. Hero Ravi Teja is one actor who has been known for his mass masala movies and especially his dialogues with his leading ladies. Of course, most of the times, it is done in good humour.
However, in his new movie ‘Daruvu’, it appears that the Mass Maharaja may have gone a little vulgar with his leading lady Taapsee. Recently, few stills of the film were released and one such still showed as though Ravi Teja was literally going to reach the assets of Taapsee.
Even in ‘Racha’ a similar still was revealed showing Charan and Tamannah in one pose. It was as if he is eager to touch Tammu’s assets. Those who saw the stills are saying Ravi Teja is doing things without concern to his age and gauge. Wonder what the senior star has to say to this.
Mass Maharaj Raviteja has been going through a slump at the moment. His upcoming release Daruvu found it tough to get buyers, which wasn't the case with Raviteja's films a year ago. A row of flops have raised doubts over Raviteja's minimum guarantee tag. However, failures haven't slowed him down and he is in a hurry to as many films as possible at a quick rate.
Raviteja is into mid forties and the age is already showing on him. He can't rely on romantic comedies or action entertainers for too long. He should start picking matured roles and subjects, which isn't a safe bet for him. It is hard to say what Raviteja would do after three years from now. Audiences didn't accept him other type of roles except for entertaining characters.
Hence, the ageing star is trying to make hay while the sun shines. He is in a bit of hurry with signing up films. He is also setting particular benchmarks for the directors in winding up the film. Raviteja is only giving a maximum of sixty days per film and the directors will have to wrap them up in that time. Don't be surprised if you get to see a new Raviteja release every two months from now on!
Pawan Kalyan's Gabbar Singh is slated for release on next Friday. Following the latest trend, this film is going to release in highest number of theaters in Pawan's career. Gabbar Singh is surrounded by huge expectations and too much hype. Buyers have spent big bucks on it. So this film will need some space at the box office to recover the investment.
Unfortunately, Gabbar Singh is not going to enjoy that free time like Racha or Dammu did. Racha had three weeks of time before Dammu hit the teaters. Dammu is also having the coast clear until two weeks. But Gabbar Singh is going to face immediate competition from Raviteja's Daruvu, which is also a mass entertainer like the former.
Both the films target audiences are same and hence Gabbar Singh will have to be pretty impressive to counter the competition and stay on top in the second week too. There will be one notable release per week from now on. So, Gabbar Singh is not going to be benefitted by the external factors like having no competition. It would have to do well on its merits. Good luck Gabbar!
