Dasara

Dasara movie review: While the Nani-starrer uses every trick in the book, it succeeds in sucking you into a world you haven't experienced before.

Two of the film’s best moments come in the form of extremely well-choreographed action set pieces right before the interval and during the finale portion. Nani turns in such a believable performance and he sells his quest for revenge so convincingly. But the predictability doesn’t come across as a major grouse as the slow world-building really helps in keeping the viewer invested right till the end. When the transformation happens at a crucial juncture of the film, Srikanth has spent a great deal of time in building Nani’s character. Nevertheless, the film still manages to leave you in awe, thanks to the world it’s set in and how debutant Odella Srikanth presents it. The bar, which is reserved for the upper caste men, is the place where power as well caste dynamics come into play.

'Dasara' starring Nani has been released globally today. The movie has been shot in Telugu but will also be released in Hindi and Tamil.

Another user wrote that it was a "raw and rustic movie with beautifully narrated and picturized emotions." The release of Dasara has already sparked a lot of anticipation on social media. Nani explained that the concept of the film has mass appeal, which is why it was decided to release it in multiple languages. Nani while citing the examples of Baahubali: The Beginning, KGF, and Pushpa said, the idea of a pan-Indian movie has evolved over time. When Baahubali I was released, it was not a pan-Indian movie. The story is set in a world that is alien to both Telugu and Hindi audiences, making it unique.

Nani's outing as a rugged character is a massive departure for the actor and he owned it, but the movie lacks the bite, say Twitter users.

The movie was also dubbed into Hindi, Tamil and Malayalam. First-time director Srikanth Odela deserves appreciation for going with a solid story and aesthetic, said moviegoers. 'Natural Star' Nani's latest outing Dasara released with much fanfare on Thursday and has been receiving rave reviews too for its realistic portrayal of Singarein Coal Mines in the 90s.

[Google News](https://news.google.com/s/CBIwo7yAqUE) Cinematography, music, and direction are commendable ✌🏼👌🏽 [pic.twitter.com/ktyr6Np7Xu] First half is bonkers with flawless telangana slang but second half is slow and stretched. Given Dasara’s impressive star cast and the fanbase of ‘natural star’ Nani, the audience has huge expectations from the film. The plot starts with the story of a young alcoholic from Veerlapally who steals coals. Their movies are not just watched in the southern part of the country but pan-India.

'Dasara' movie review: Nani, Keerthy Suresh lead this gritty, emotional ride by debut director Srikanth Odela.

In a completely de-glam part, watch him cower in fear and later in shame that he cannot think straight under the influence of alcohol. Was it just a ‘mass’ moment to announce the arrival of a saviour? It takes a while to warm up to the world of Dasara, where alcohol excess is a way of life, a way of escaping the travesty of the daily grind. One of the earlier sequences in the police station helps to delineate the naivete of Dharani as opposed to the comparatively smarter approach by Suri. A backstory of the conflicts within a powerful family, involving the characters played by Saikumar and Samuthirakani and later Shine Tom Chacko, forms the undercurrent for the power dynamics in the village. First, to address the elephant in the room, Dasara is not a wannabe Pushpa or KGF.

Dasara box office collection Day 1: Nani and Keerthy Suresh's film has had a strong start at the box office. Dasara is competing against Ajay Devgn's Bholaa ...

Nani’s last release, Ante Sundaraniki (2022), which released in Telugu with dubbed versions in Tamil and Malayalam, earned Rs 7.3 crore on opening day. Dasara is facing off against [Ajay Devgn’s Bholaa](https://indianexpress.com/article/entertainment/bollywood/bholaa-box-office-collection-day-1-ajay-devgn-film-third-highest-opener-of-the-year-8529383/) in the Hindi belt. [Dasara](https://indianexpress.com/article/entertainment/movie-review/dasara-movie-review-nani-keerthy-suresh-8527862/) has started strong at the box office, minting Rs 17 crore nett on its opening day, as per industry tracker Sacnilk.

Even in the most melodramatic of moments, Keerthy Suresh retains control of her faculties and the scene.

Even in the most melodramatic of moments, she retains control of her faculties and the scene. The timid, responsibility-shirking man is forced to make a choice between being resigned to his fate and taking a stand. The altruistic Nani, who is meek-natured and believes in staying off confrontations, steps back and lets his best friend profess his love to the girl. The film is set in Veerlapally village, a speck on the map. The denuded landscape reflects the state of the lives that Dasara depicts. Its exploration of entrenched caste dynamics, bitter political rivalries and debilitating social ills in a coal mining village in Telangana pushes it closer to Tamil films from the Pa.

Director: Srikanth Odela. Writer: Srikanth Odela. Cast: Nani, Keerthy Suresh, Shine Tom Chacko, Dheekshith Shetty. Blazing. So much of Dasara's ambience is ...

Yet the climax is one of unkempt bravado, of one man pummelling a mountain of men; of him emerging from fire, untouched by its flames. Even the way Dasara treats Keerthy Suresh’s character feels apologetic, giving her a patch of dialogue to explain why the film is so cruel to her. A character asks in Dasara, “Are our lives greater than myths?” The film answers, shiftily, both yes and no, and I wish it had made a choice, one that it stuck to; one that it could put the full force of its cinematic might behind. The mines themselves are unrelated to much of the story. There is a creeping sense that the central tragedy that keeps the film afloat would not have happened had Dharani been drunk. There is the smaller intimate story of love and friendship. The evil of the story, pooled into Chinna Nambi, is unstable and shallow. Elections and electoral promises are flung into and out of the narrative as lazy asides, to push the film forward. Alcoholism, like most things in the film, is given a sudden, jerking arc. This extravagant blazing-ness, which characterises the world of Dasara, is refused to its story. He is the conventional hero. Nani propels Dasara with his coy, rambling patheticness, playing Dharani, an alcoholic who narrates the story, whose narration exits the film mid-way after providing the necessary context and the history of this village, Veerlapalle.

Due to his exceptional natural acting and good script selection, Telugu actor Nani enjoys a huge fan following from movie buffs across the film industry.

Nani could've easily hit the ball out of the park with the kind of energy it had, but it messes up at the root level - Dasara movie reviews out!

The film fails at the script level, and he can definitely better this with a good story next time.

Yes, he’s amazing with his moves, but just notice him processing heartbreak in the film, and you’ll see why he proudly owns the tag of being a ‘Natural Star’. With the ban on alcohol by NTR Rao, the political war between two families erupts, bringing chaos to the lives of normal people.
