Bottom Line: A Ravi Teja Mass flick that has its moments, and ends as a bland entertainer.
Story
After his Superhit comeback flick Raja the Great released on
Diwali 2017, Mass Maharaja Ravi Teja is back, this time with a typical
mass masala entertainer offering his brand entertainment, with the
Vikram Sirikonda Directorial debut Touch chesi chudu released today.
Let's see if Ravi Teja has managed to extend the winning form further,
in this exclusive first on net Touch chesi chudu review by team AP
Herald.
Karthikeya( Ravi Teja) loves
his family and shares a close bond with them. Situations lead to
confrontation with the evil Selvam, and as troubles arise for his
family, Karthikeya reveals his identity of a cool cop with a mission,
and his search for the dangerous Freddy Daruwala. What's the conflict
between Karthikeya and the antagonist, and whether he was able to
eliminate the villain and protect his family is what Touch chesi chudu
is all about.
Star Performance
Ravi Teja is back to his Energetic best, after playing a subtle and
different role in Raja the Great, and his humor filled body language
with his impeccable comic timing and his cool attitude while delivering
massy punches, come in handy, as he excels in a tailor made role. Be it
the anger against the villain or the love sequences or emotional scenes
with family sentiments, Ravi Teja aces it all. Freddy Daruwala looks
menacing initially, but ends up as a loud caricature with his cliched
characterization and weak portrayal. Raashi Khanna oozes oomph in the
songs, clad in skimpy outfits, and performs the role of an eye candy to
perfection while also getting to emote in few scenes, while Seerat
Kapoor is totally limited to glam show. The rest of the cast including
Rajesh, Suhasini and Jayaprakash fit their Roles, and are adequate.
Techinical Team
The Music as well the BGM fall flat. It is obvious that the
Post-Production values are too low and they are rushed. It is obvious
from the hush-hush cuts. Chota K Naidu's Cinematography has effectively
captured the stunning fight sequences as a treat for action lovers and
the smoking hot glam feast of the sizzling beauties Raashi Khanna and
Seerat Kapoor as well. Editing by Gautham Raju could have been taut as
the film lags in the second half at times. Ironically, the better scenes
come only in the second half! Debutant Vikram Sirikonda makes an entry
into films with a tried and tested plot and with the able Ravi Teja at
the control of the proceedings, returning as a cop 4 years after Power.
Analysis
While the plot is as old as the hills, Vikram Sirikonda is aided by
Vakkantham Vamsy's writing with mass moments placed perfectly, that
overshadows the drags in the second half, and cliched
characterizations. With routine story and unwarranted song placements,
Touch chesi chudu entertains in parts with the added family angle,
Sensuous glam show by the two heroines, and to top it all, Mass Maharaja
Ravi Teja in top form, rescuing the movie solely with his unmatched
comic timing and massy screen presence. All said, the predictable and
lengthy Touch chesi chudu emerges as a can watch for offering glimpses
of Ravi Teja brand entertainment.
