‘Bhartha Mahasayulaku Wignyapthi’ movie review: Ravi Teja’s comedy is watchable but generic

Bhartha Mahasayulaku Wignyapthi’s team did good to hole viewers for what they could expect from the Sankranti release. Despite its done-to-death premise of a cheating hubby sandwiched betwixt 2 stubborn women, it was deemed to beryllium a departure for Ravi Teja from his large enactment fares, successful the susceptible hands of manager Kishore Tirumala who is known for his lighthearted entertainers.

Ravi Teja is successful reasonably bully institution successful his latest outing to present connected the promise. Apart from the starring ladies Dimple Hayathi and Ashika Ranganath, a formidable clump of drama actors — Satya, Sunil, Vennela Kishore, Getup Srinu and Muralidhar Goud — supply the histrion capable fodder to beryllium his bully aged cheery self.

Yet, if you expect a festive fare that would spell each guns blazing, you mightiness beryllium successful for a mild disappointment. These are hopeless times successful Telugu cinema erstwhile viewers are expected to beryllium blessed with the bare minimum. For starters, the movie consciously avoids thing high-stakes. Every scope for high-pitch play is converted into a gag, laced with pop-culture references and unusual coincidences.

What begins arsenic a casual fling betwixt a joined man, Ram a.k.a Satya (Ravi Teja), and Manasa (Ashika Ranganath) successful the mediate of an planetary concern trip, balloons into an out-of-the-blue messiness erstwhile the second lands successful Hyderabad, disrupting Ram’s different unchangeable matrimony with Balamani (Dimple Hayathi). The much Ram tries to conceal the truth, the deeper helium lands successful trouble.

The self-aware archetypal hr is simply a breeze and serves arsenic a reminder of the director’s flair for comedy. Ravi Teja is astatine location playing a flawed hubby consumed by guilt implicit a one-night stand. The hostility astir his infidelity is explored good done the supporting formed — the loyal adjunct Leela (Vennela Kishore), an occasionally straying Sudarshan (Sunil), and the young Trinetrudu (90s: A Middle Class Biopic child histrion Rohan Roy).

Tirumala uses an old-time instrumentality — the alter-ego — to grow connected Ram’s guilt, a originative prime that helps Ravi Teja flaunt his famously unabashed dialog delivery. However, with an anxious husband, a liberated woman, and a loyal woman astatine the helm, 1 expects the penning to instrumentality banal of changes successful modern-day relationships and upgrade the template. Instead, it resists immoderate effort to propulsion the bar.

Post intermission, though the humour works successful parts, the manager runs retired of ideas to escalate the conflict. The subplot astir Manasa’s rowdy member Rakesh Shetty (Tarak Ponnappa) is simply a failed bid to make hostility successful betwixt the flippancy. The edifice occurrence astir the generator starts well, but is stretched beyond necessity. The combat series excessively feels needless.

The dumb-charades occurrence with the full formed successful spot should person been a firecracker, but it lacks vigour and lone contributes to the cacophony. The effort to cater to the Insta-reels assemblage is evident with the enactment versions of the Karthika Deepam rubric way and the Pinni song. Despite the opus and creation routines being casual connected the eyes and catchy, they look randomly squeezed into the narrative.

The climax is besides a reflection of lazy, convenient writing. The premix of lengthy monologues and absurd events tin permission the assemblage confused connected whether it wants to beryllium a cautionary communicative for men oregon poke amusive astatine itself. Bhartha Mahasayulaku Wignyapthi works champion erstwhile its pb quality admits his mistake and makes a valiant effort to enactment it down him.

The hopeless bid to warrant Ram’s matter and overgarment himself arsenic a unfortunate of an over-protective woman successful the last monologue feels unnecessary. The movie could person been a amusive instrumentality connected changing narration norms, though its blimpish attack makes it a mislaid opportunity. The gag astir a Spanish woman’s tattoo and however she is ‘sold property’ (referring to her OTT and outer rights) is despicable.

While this is not the quintessential Ravi Teja movie 1 expects, the actor’s restraint successful humour is an advantage, and helium is aided by Sunil who is backmost successful his constituent and Vennela Kishore successful a regular but entertaining appearance. Satya’s ‘bellam’ occurrence starts with promise, though it doesn’t detonate enough.

Both starring ladies, Ashika and Dimple, clasp their ain with their assured beingness and creation their hearts retired successful the catchy people fig ‘Vammo Vayyo’. Yet, much could person been done with their parts than reducing them to representations of the ‘wife’ and the ‘other woman’ who combat for the antheral and occasionally groove alongside him successful imagination sequences.

Bhartha Mahasayulaku Wignyapthi is simply a mixed container connected the whole. Although it hints astatine the manager and the actor’s instrumentality to signifier successful flashes, it is hardly a reflection of their implicit potential. It is similar paying for a afloat summons but stepping retired partially satisfied.
