Narudi Brathuku Natana Movie Review
Narudi Brathuku Natana is a 2024 Telugu language emotional drama film written and directed by Rishikeshwar Yogi. The film has Shiva Kumar Ramachandravarapu & Nithin Prasanna playing the lead roles while Shruti Jayan, Aiswarya Anil Kumar, Viva Raghav, Dayanand Reddy, Krishna Prasad, Rishi Suresh & others are seen in important supporting roles. The music is composed by NYX Lopez while the film is produced by TG Vishwa Prasad, Sukumar Boreddy & Dr. Sindhu Reddy under People Media Factory, S Square Cinema & C For Apple Productions banners.
Story:
Sathya (Shiva Kumar Ramachandravarapu) is a self-centered aspiring actor who doesn’t really understand the art of acting yet believes he is destined for fame in the movies. After getting rejected in auditions and insulted by his father & best friend, he decides to come out of his home and live a life on his own. In this process, he travels to Kerala to understand emotions and life where he meets a stranger named D. Salman (Nithin Prasanna). How did D. Salman and the experiences Sathya faces in Kerala transform him as a person and as an actor? Forms the crux of the film.
What about on-screen performances?
Nithin Prasanna is the pick of the actors. He is very natural in the role of D. Salman and his comedy timing is appreciable in the film. All his fun scenes with Shiva Kumar in Kerala are a saving grace to this film.
Shiva Kumar Ramachandravarapu does a pretty decent job as the struggling actor, Sathya. He does well in all the fun portions but he is a bit off-colour in a few scenes where he performs as an actor. His expressions in these scenes could’ve been better.
Shruti Jayan is adorable as the Malayali girl who feeds Sathya and is impressive in her small yet sweet role. All her English dialogues are hilarious. Aiswarya Anil Kumar is neat as the lover of D.
Salman while Viva Raghav who plays the hero’s best friend and Dayanand Reddy as the hero’s father are fine in their parts. The rest of the supporting cast are adequate in their limited portions.
What about off-screen talents?
The story by Rishikeshwar Yogi is refreshing and had all the potential to be a good emotional drama but the way the scenes are written takes away the interest created by the core plot point of the film. The screenplay is very poor and is the biggest drawback of the film.
The film is about the journey of self-doubt which leads an aspiring actor to a crucial realization and makes him know the importance of empathy and compassion in becoming a successful actor. But this point isn’t conveyed properly through the scenes coz of the half-baked writing.
The scenes had the scope but the way they were written needed more shapeness and proper closures. There are many logicless scenes that fail to convey the emotions properly while a few scenes aren’t presented neatly on screen.
The whole football sequence and the scene where the hero tries to sell his mobile in the first half are good examples of this and the scene where the Malayali girl serves beef and the light goes off is another scene where the emotion isn’t conveyed properly.
Director Rishikeshwar Yogi does a pretty underwhelming job with his craft. Although he had a decent plot in hand, his execution falters big time and the film is technically not up to the mark.
He should’ve had a free-flowing screenplay to make this into an emotional tale but the scenes he had in the script looked very clumsy and half-baked. The songs by NYX Lopez are forgettable and fail to register with the viewers.
His background score is neat in a few scenes and is not up to mark in a few others. The camera work by Fahad Abdul Majeed is middling. There are frames where the focus isn’t proper and the lighting in the film is too dark in a few scenes.
The editing by Rishikeshwar Yogi is poor. The cuts are very lengthy and there is a lot of drag in a few scenes.
The production values by People Media Factory, S Square Cinema & C For Apple Productions are ordinary.
What’s Hot?
* Nithin Prasanna’s Performance
* Shiva Kumar’s Performance
* All Funny Scenes Between Nithin & Shiva
* Decent Second Half & Okayish Climax
* Ex-Marriage to Police Station Sequence In The Latter Half
What’s Not?
* Half Baked Writing & Poor Screenplay
* Clumsy & Not So Convincing Narrative
* Scenes Designing Lacks Clarity
* Weak Conversations
* Boring First Half
* Lacks Techincal Finesse
Verdict:
On the whole, Narudi Brathuku Natana is a half-baked drama that shows the emotional journey of an aspiring actor with too many half-baked scenes. It had the needed weight in the story and also had a few funny moments in the second half but the lack of good technical values and the weak scene closures with dull conversations are a major drawback of this film which more or less looks like a short film made for big screens!!
