Ranga Marthanda

I haven't seen Natasamrat and this remake showcases the acting prowess of legends Prakash Raj and Brahmanandam considering is is their scenes that leave a lasting impact. The film focuses on a legendary theatre actor Raghava Rao (Prakash Raj), who is bestowed the title of Rangamarthanda. He announces his retirement from him acting, distributes his wealth among his children and decides to be the best husband he can to his wife for the remaining days. But money changes people and his own loved ones push him out of the house. His inner struggle while coping up with his roles being cut off abruptly in real life, forms rest of the story.

Rangamarthanda's family conflict seems age old and so is the drama surrounding it. Be it the way, their daughter in law uses her daughter to convey she doesn't want the in-laws living with her or how the free spirited daughter starts ill treating her parents, reminded me of those late 80s, 90s films. But what stood out is how Prakash Raj's Raghava Rao deals with these scenario. There are couple of scenes specifically written to showcase Prakash Raj and Brahmanandam's range as actors and they both excel. Ramya Krishnan's role could've been etched better than just a loyal wife.

Overall, despite the slow dated narrative, this is worth watching for the two legendary actors' standout performances.

Must watch movie. You will learn how to respect your parents, your partner and your best friend. Please don't miss it. If possible try watch this movie with your kids and family. Thank you very much to Krishna Vamshi Gaaru🙏 for making this fabulous movie for us. Outstanding performance by Prakash Raj gaaru, Brahammananadam gaaru and Ramya Krishna gaaru. We want more movies like this. After watching this movie your not able to see into your parents and your in-laws eyes directly. After watching this movie I'm unable to control my tear's and I called my in-laws and I asked them to forgive me for mistakes. I'm very lucky to have them in my life.

If you are look for some wisdom and perspective on life. You should watch it. A great story and an amazing performance by Brahmanandam and Prakash Raj. The movie speaks will take you through a roller coaster of emotions. Everyone see's their lives with a perspective, this movie will give you a holistic view in it. Brahmanandam, you are simply the best actor in the industry. I was personally Never bored at any point in the movie, the flow if the movie is really good. I would highly recommend all the age groups to watch this movie. It gives out a great social message to everyone. We are a young Nation and I hope it brings out a positive change.

Filled with a lot of emotions. Liked how they kept the movie real, not some fancy ending. A harsh truth faced by many families these days, which we all stray away from.

No matter how educated, advanced or rich you become, it doesn't matter if you don't have your parents or well wishers around you. How you disrespect or disown your parents today, your children would do the same with in your future. They are quick learners, aren't they? Don't know come most of the people miss this basic simple point.

Anyhow, loved Prakash Raj, Brahmanandam & Ramya Krishnan in this movie. They acting never fails us and the story just fits in with their characters.

Right from the start off the director's choice of outdated narration and dragged screenplay were slowly overlooked by the emotional connect that he's presented and character progression we come across throughout the movie.

One of the best emotional family drama, the movie runs on the lead actor's perspective with underlying concept of Indian theatres.

The occurrence of events in the storyline are quite realistic and relatable!!

The entire lead cast has showcased us the brilliance of the performance!!

As the new conflict points arise during the narration still the main motive always remained same which makes it a bit predictable... yet a good way of storytelling.
