Trailer Review: Babu Bangaram
- IndiaGlitz, [Monday,July 25 2016]
Venkatesh is back as a Babu Bangaram and a Bobbili Raja rolled into one. In a long time, the talented actor, whose intensity we have seen and thoroughly enjoyed in movies like 'Ganesh', 'Premante Idera', 'Gemini' and to an extent in 'Lakshmi', is seen in a light-veined-cum-angry-cop's role. Director Maruthi, for sure, is here venturing into a genre he hasn't before.
Playing ACP Krishna, Venky is seen as a cop with a difference. As he beats up a baddie, he feels funnily sorry for being violent. As Venky says 'ayyo.. ayyoo', Bobbili Raja-style, the quirk is there for all to see. With so much of 'jali' (sympathy) in his DNA, will the ACP ever turn a 'non-veggie'?
Yes, he does. "Tiger veg thinte vetakaranga choosaru. Non-veg lo digindi ra (You mocked at the tiger when it was a vegetarian. But it has now turned a non-veggie)," the hero thunders.
Once again, Venky as a lover boy is back wooing his dream girl, played by Nayanatara. As Prudhviraj and Vennela Kishore as his sidekicks, Venky's affair with Nayan is surely going to be a laugh riot. Lines like "Nenu propose chesi konni yugalu aipoindi" also hint that the hero's frustration is invoked to a comedic effect. Also seen are Prabhas Sreenu and Posani Krishna Murali, among others.
Get ready for Venky to lock horns with the 'Mirchi' villain - Sampath Raj, who seems to be playing the heroine's elder. The fight-to-finish, Maruthi-style, can be very curious.
