Lakshmi's film criticism on NTR: RGV's inept exercise in propaganda

Lakshmi film star NTR actor: P Vijay Kumar, Yagna Shetty
director Lakshmi NTR: Ram Gopal Varma, Agasthya Manju
The NTR movie rating: A star

Lakshmi is the third time biic Rama Rao, the god of cinema, will be released in just three months. Director Krish divided the life of the late morning idol into two parts: N.T.R: Kathanayakudu and N.T.R: Mahanayakudu. While the first dealt with the rise of NTR, the second was about his subsequent transition into active politics and how he emerged victorious from the power struggle with the central government then led by Indira Gandhi.

Director NTR director Ram Gopal Varma almost resumes where NTR: Mahanayakudu is over. The story of the latest biopic begins in the aftermath of NTR's 1989 electoral defeat. RGV's voiceover, which opens the film, claims that his Loyalists and his family abandoned him shortly after the election debacle. It was already before his controversial second marriage that is at the center of this film.

NTR (P Vijay Kumar) is going through a difficult period and he is about to leave the theater and politics for good. Enter, Lakshmi Parvathi (Yagna Shetty still sobbing). She brings a breeze of fresh air into the life of a loving NTR. Lakshmi asks NTR to allow him to write his biography in a long speech that gives hope that everyone will be able to watch a good honest film through the window. You realize that you are going to have yawning melodrama.

Lakshmi Parvathi was an avid follower of NTR. So much so that, apparently, she even had the picture of NTR alongside other gods she adored. That's why she hid her ambition to write NTR's biography for housework at NTR. She eats a lot in NTR to the extent that he does not eat unless he feeds it by hand.

NTR took risks and never hesitated to do things in which he believed. This is what makes him a legend in the film industry and the first leader of a regional party that shook the power of the central government. Given NTR's bold attitude, one understands why he defended Lakshmi, despite growing murmurs within his party about his new relationship. He was not the only one to worry about what others are talking about him. Either he will not surrender to a propaganda apparatus that claims to have formed the new center of power in the "kitchen" of NTR

The Lakshmi NTR, however, fails terribly to create any tension in the film. The film is directed by Ram Gopal Varma and Agasthya Manju. Surprisingly, both directors were unable to see that none of the scenes worked in the movie. With the exception of the scene where NTR is facing public humiliation, the film as a whole is considered an inept propaganda exercise.

RGV must cultivate new storytelling tricks if he ever wanted to re-create a decent film. Lakshmi's NTR is not just the product of bad cinema, it's also a little studied biopic. We have virtually no idea what happened in the corridors of power that led to the Superman's collapse of Indian cinema. The film only recalls the information already available without any added value.

Some scenes that look like a parody of the NTR family caused laughter. And then I realized that the movie was a missed opportunity. Lakshmi's NTR could have been the Deadpool of the NTR gun. This could have been the antidote against NTR fatigue. Krish's films are more like masterpieces.
