Parama Veera Chakra Movie Review :

Story:

Balakrishna plays a role of renowed telugu film star and sheela plays role as his co star who gets attracted to him.Chakradhar’s mother (role played byJayasudha) never likes her son getting into films. She wishes to see him in Indian Army as Major. But things take different turn and Chakradhar continues as actor playing varied roles like Ravana, Komaram Bheem, labor leader etc.

A team of Army officers come to Chakradhar to narrate a story. An officer (Murali Mohan) narrates him the character of a great Army officer Major Jayasimha. Listening for a while Chakradhar gets Major Jayasimha into him. He started carrying that character with him after getting inspired to the maximum.

Then what happens? Will that story becomes a film or a reality? Who is Major Jayasimha? Why Army officers come to meet Chakradhar? That forms rest of the story with various twists.

Performances:

There is nothing to point out Balakrishna. He attained his trade mark in acting and getting continued with that. On a whole he is marvelous in the role of Ravana and labor leader. He also showed his prowess while delivering a dialogue on film actors. Except the signs of catching up age, Balakrishna looked as usual with respect to his theatrical skills.

Sheela has no proper role. She appears just for some glamour sake. Indeed, her glamour is not used properly.

Ameesha Patel has some character but that too very small.

Coming to the comedy part the Robo spoof appeared like a rotten egg. Nasty comedy with C grade taste disgusts the audiences. Brahmanandam, Ali and Hema carry in that spoof till the end. Raghu Babu and Krishna Bhagwan got wasted as they got no role at all.

Dasari pulled many film celebrities on to the screen right from Boyapati Srenu, Srinu Vaitla, Kodi Ramakrishna, Jonnaviththula, Singeetham Sreenivasa Rao etc.

Cinematography is very primitive, make up is below poverty line, dialogues are tasteless, and screenplay is dull.

Highlights:

A portion of Ravana Brahma’s scene
Balakrishna’s dialogue as trade union leader explaining the pride of khaakhi
Dialogue while elucidating the importance of film actors
Sensible dialogue in court at climax

Drawbacks:

Weakest comedy
Dull music
No gripping screenplay
Feeble dialogues
Outdated histrionics of 1980s
Predictable line
Artificiality in make up and background
Technically dull

Analysis:

On a whole 95% of the film, fails to pull the attention of audience. Entire blame goes to Dasari Narayana Rao, the captain of the movie. He would have taken enough care in pulling the interest of audiences.

• Instead of the song ‘Thalli Kadupulo..’ he would have presented a remix version of ‘jananee janma bhoomischa..’ which would have given better ignition for audience to get enticed to screen. But still, the lyric is sensible even in ‘thalli kadupulo’.
• He would have presented the terrorists and fights with them in realistic way instead of sticking on to the Before-Christ styles.
• He would have avoided the Robo spoof that brought C-grade image to the film
• He would have avoided the song ‘Arjuna Phalguna..’ as it appears the placement is wrong

The film begins with ‘Bobbili Puli’ scene of NTR. First few minutes confuse the audiences as the film takes off with Balakrishna’s ‘Ravana’ scene. The scene is very long that audience doubt if they are watching the trailer of ‘Sri Rama Rajyam’. But slowly the presentation style chosen by Dasari will be understood. There is no story in entire first half but only incidents role. The idea is good but the execution is very weak. The actual story and ploys start in second half.

The movie is not a great deal. Even the favorites of Balakrishna may be happy just for 2 or 3 scenes and nothing more. Dasari’s obsolete ideas and narration scheme disturbed the movie.

Balakrishna should take enough care in choosing the director and story line but shouldn’t jump into the project.
