Five Reasons Why You Should Watch 'Dhruva'

It's only a few hours left for the release of 'Dhruva'. Coming from the prestigious Geetha Arts banner, this December 9 release has at least five stellar ingredients that make it a cut above the rest. Read on...

The script:

A remake of the blockbuster Kollywood movie 'Thani Oruvan', 'Dhruva' is rightly touted as a script-based movie. As Surender Reddy tells IndiaGlitz, it's not hero-centric or villain-centric.

In an industry obsessed with hero-centric scripts like 'Sarrainodu', 'Sardaar Gabbar Singh' and the like, this is a refreshing assurance for sure.

Since there is no reason to believe that 'Dhruva' is a non-faithful remake, let's look forward to a film where every episode is gripping. Ram Charan says that, at 159 minutes, it's an arresting and edge-of-the-seat fare.

Ram Charan:

Make no mistakes, the Mega hero is coming back with a vengeance. His conviction in turning machismo says it all. With unimaginable drudgery, he has grown to be, what director Sukumar has called, the country's best biceps.

His strict regimen has been a matter of talk, thanks to the attention given by the media. While it's a foregone conclusion that he has sacrificed many a comfort for the sake of metamophosing into a six-pack abs wonder, Surender Reddy feels that the amount of hard work he has pulled off shouldn't have to be put up by anyone else.

Interpreting the cop's role in his own way, Cherry must have left his own imprint on one of the most-admired cop characters in recent times.

Aravind Swamy:

As Allu Aravind and others have said, Aravind Swamy is not a or the villain. He is a character. We would say, he is 'the' Siddhartha Abhimanyu. A ruthless scientist-businessman par excellence, he is that super antagonist whom the 'Magadheera' wants to eliminate because he is Hundred In One.

For a generation that still watches this talented actor's class act in 'Roja' and 'Bombay' (and also 'Merupu Kalalu') with admiration, 'Dhruva' comes as a must-watch.

Dialogues:

'Thani Oruvan' is not only a script-based film, but also a dialogue-oriented one. Dialogue writer Vema Reddy must have gone through a litmus test.

Expect dialogues, not panegyric. Expect the hero to talk like a gutsy human who happens to be a conscientious, upright cop. Don't expect him, or the characters referring to him, talk as if he were a super human.

Expect Posani Krishna Murali to throw repartees, may be.

All in all, expect wit and wow.

Surender Reddy:

As someone who is conscious that his technical knowledge is no less to that of his Bollywoodian counterparts, Surender must have used every lesson in the book to make 'Dhruva' better than 'Race Gurram' when it comes to the technical stuff.

Why not, when he has the likes of PS Vinod and Hiphop Tamizha on board? Naveen Nooli's editing, one hopes, will be another major highlight.

All in all, expect 'Dhruva' to become blockbuster.
