"Lakshmi's NTR", criticism: BGM fort and melodramatic play make this film intolerable

Hitchbad is known to have said that the length of a film should be directly related to the endurance of the human bladder. Unfortunately, Hitchbad did not take into account the dynamics of a typical RGV film where, leaving an empty human bladder, you want to find the excuse that allows you to leave the room.

Lakshmi's NTR can be dissected, like all supposed biopics, into two points – for the sincerity of the story and for the quality of the film itself. In the first case, the film may be accused of having an extremely one-sided opinion, but since no one really knows the truth except the lady to whom it alludes, we can put this discussion aside. On this last point, we can not denounce it enough, but the public is now watching RGV films with a pinch of salt to take advantage of the ridiculous. , another mediocre film that is far from what a great man like NTR deserved. If it was a film about the fact that CBN could not be wrong, either in politics or as an administrator, it explained that CBN – Sritej is worked well in his minimalist articulation to imitate the real CBN – was nothing less than pure evil. Lakshmi – Yagna Shetty adores NTR and pbades for an incomprehensible and incomprehensible woman – is the guardian angel who only wanted to give NTR peace. He was very decried and completely demonized, thanks to the stratagems of CBN and his journalist. allies.

The problem with one-sided movies is that you lose interest in these films quite easily. After all, everything is gray in real life. If RGV wanted to talk about the other side of the story, it could have been a little more nuanced, choosing a slightly moderate middle way that would have allowed the viewer to be "logically" integrated into the story. But, RGV works differently and the nuance, to tell the truth, has never been its strong point. BGM loud and boring, darker images with odd angles and bad actors are part of the RGV movies at the stop and Lakshmi's film NTR remains faithful to this tradition.

wanting to watch the film as a neutral empathy against the loneliness of a widower who finds solace in an understanding woman – who asks her for help for the biography-thesis she wants write about him – the movie distracts you with its melodrama. P Vijay Kumar and Yagna, who play the lead roles, never seem to have a normal, human conversation. It's almost as if they were pronouncing heavily scripted dialogs, that you would not expect two people to use in a normal, user-friendly setup. Secondly, the film describes how CBN and the rest of the NTR family are top-level hypocrites who leave NTR alone, to come back later and complain about Lakshmi's growing influence within the party – as many alleged allegations by CBN.

It's up to the decision makers who chose this story and the family to react to this portrayal, the film – political plots, propaganda (with imminent elections) and truth set aside – is as bad as a usual RGV film in the second part of his career. The Eyesore costumes (lawyers close to military leaders, deputies and famous children, we would expect them to be better dressed than in the film) and a bad artistic design greet you on every street corner. In addition, the main characters seem almost synchronous with the dialogues that were probably suggested by the mimic artists to make them sound the same way.

The careful treatment of each character also makes you angry. NTR, for example, begins to lose interest in politics, but is pushed by Lakshmi and finds a new wind. This arc of character and transformation is barely recorded. Lakshmi moves away from her other life (husband and son) and they do not recognize him. The family turmoil of NTR, which is very well documented in public space, is reduced to a few scenes where all they see is how they will lose everything if Lakshmi dominates the decision making. Are they children in kindergarten? Was it logically their biggest concern? If so, what was the basis of their fears? None of these issues are addressed, and the blame is attributed to CBN, while Lakshmi only serves tea at meetings.

Lakshmi's NTR seems to spark controversy through the scandalous nature of the plot. The relationship between NTR and Lakshmi is described as extremely pious and clean – not even an inappropriate insinuation, thank god. He divides the story into two shades. NTR is melancholy and lonely, loves her people, is loved by all and wants to do good for them with Lakshmi by her side. Lakshmi is the ubiquitous and altruistic presence in the end of NTR's life, thinking only of himself and his peace. CBN and the NTR family are selfish and venomous in the way they use the NTR name to win elections and then part with everything that goes on under the paw.

The scenario offers no idea, no character badysis and no empathy (even for the main characters – NTR talks about Lakshmi bringing him peace, but such a conversation is hardly developed, viewers listening to a terrible music seems to be lost in a deep conversation – why make the effort to write good dialogues, huh?), despite the pretensions of it to the outside. NTR's interviews with members of his party are interrupted by BGM. NTR has never had a single conversation with anyone, just doing what CBN or Lakshmi ask him to do. It's hard to digest and justify the characters RGV is trying to describe as perverse – an obvious contradiction.

All this, combined with the mediocre performance of a group of amateur and melodramatic actors, an OST slotted head, oversized costumes, bad make-up (the small budgets do not really have to be blamed these days), make the film a forgotten case. the film. Neither TNM nor any of its reviewers has a professional relationship with the film's producers or other members of the cast and its crew.
