The Family Star

I recently watched "Family Star" and found myself thoroughly entertained. Vijay Deverakonda and Mrunal Thakur have fantastic chemistry, and their performances carry the film beautifully. The music adds another layer of charm, with catchy tunes that set the mood perfectly.

The film has its strengths in the comedic scenes, where Vijay Deverakonda shines. His dialogue delivery is spot-on and genuinely made me laugh out loud. While the story may have some familiar elements, the performances and the heartwarming moments keep it engaging.

Of course, there's always room for improvement. Some dramatic portions could have had a little more emotional depth. But overall, if you're looking for a feel-good film with a talented cast and some genuinely funny moments, "Family Star" is a solid choice. It's the kind of movie that leaves you with a smile on your face.

So watching this movie wt first is different in first half movie focus on hero and it's family and then someone come and started entering this family and after l that main movie start the first half is fully entertainment and joy and I liked but I don't like fighting scence because the movie has its own joy without fight scence after 2 half the movie focus on hero and heroine love story it's ok but the climax is not satisfied me but starting was too good the story what I want but in the end it's didn't satisfy me so I think I would be grate ending for the flim but seeing Vijay in old look makes me happy.

Govardhan is a young man from a middle-class family, who is shouldering the responsibility of supporting his struggling family. A wealthy girl named Indhu falls in love with him and decides to write a thesis about him and his family's struggles without their knowledge or consent. When Govardhan discovers Indhu's actions, he becomes deeply hurt and decides to break up with her. He also chooses to ignore her, leaving Indhu feeling devastated and desperate. Will Indhu be able to clear his misunderstanding and prove her innocence, or will she be unable to reunite with Govardhan ?

Firstly, I must say that this movie was a major disappointment. The trailers and teasers showed a completely different film, and I was expecting something much better. Secondly, I've reached a point where I'm skeptical of movies featuring Vijay Deverakonda as the lead actor. His acting has become monotonous and unengaging, and I find myself ignoring his films more often than not. The only reason I decided to watch this movie was because of Mrunal Thakur's presence. Unfortunately, even her talent wasn't enough to save the film from Vijay's subpar performance. His acting throughout the movie was average at best, and his expressions lacked depth and emotion. All I could see was a low-budget version of Arjun Reddy, with Vijay rehashing the same alpha-male character that he's become known for. Upon researching his filmography, I noticed that 99% of his films feature similar roles, with little to no range or versatility in his acting. My honest opinion is that he needs to be more selective with the scripts he chooses and work on improving his acting skills. I desperately waited to watch Mrunal Thakur, though that also left me disappointed. After appearing in some of the best films, like Sita Ramam and Hi Nanna, this one is a completely bad script selection. I don't know whom to blame, whether Mrunal or the director of this film. Her acting and chemistry with VD was good, but her character has nothing much to showcase. But I must say that she was a saving grace of the film. I desperately waited to watch Mrunal Thakur in this film, but unfortunately, it left me disappointed. After appearing in some of the best films, like Sita Ramam and Hi Nanna, I thought this one would be a great choice. However, the script selection was completely off. I'm unsure who to blame - Mrunal or the director of this film. Despite her acting and chemistry with VD being good, her character lacked depth and didn't have much to showcase. However, I must say that she was a saving grace of the film, making it somewhat bearable. My first impression of Rohini Hattangadi was a remarkable one. Although I hadn't seen her films before, she left me speechless with her performance, despite having a small role. Her impact on me was more profound than Vijay's, and she looked absolutely adorable throughout the film. She gave her best to elevate this mediocre movie, which was a commendable effort. Jagapathi Babu and Vennela Kishore were also excellent in their roles.

The first half of the film seemed promising, but everything changed when a twist was introduced during the interval. The second half took a completely opposite direction, becoming illogical and nonsensical until the climax. The storyline became increasingly senseless and lacked any connection to reality. It's hard to fathom why a middle-class boy would harass a high-class girl simply because she wrote a thesis about him, and it's equally puzzling that a high-class girl would tolerate such behavior and even hire him at her company. Such toxic films have no place in the cinema. It's difficult to believe that the writer wasn't under the influence of something while crafting this storyline. The majority of the film revolves around Govardhan's relentless tormenting of Indhu, simply because she wrote a thesis about him and his family without their permission. The dialogue is equally appalling, with cringe-worthy and toxic lines that are hard to bear. For example, Govardhan beats up a man who had tortured his sister-in-law, yet he brutally mistreats Indhu, his lover, who wrote a thesis about him and his family in a positive light. On a slightly positive note, the climax was somewhat engaging and heartwarming.

The cinematography of the film is impressive, featuring some enchanting visuals of the United States. While the song choreographies are decent, none of them are particularly memorable. The action scenes in the first half are illogical and defy the laws of physics, reminiscent of a 2000s Tamil film. However, the fight scenes in the climax are somewhat intense and engaging.

The soundtrack by Gopi Sundar is another saving grace of the film. While it may not be an extraordinary or chart-topping album like some of Sundar's other works, all the songs are still enjoyable. However, "Madhuramu Kadha" by Shreya Ghoshal and "Nandanandanaa" by Sid Sriram are particularly noteworthy and worth listening to. The background score is equally impressive, with a soothing quality that is hard to ignore. Unfortunately, the score's beauty is somewhat undermined by the fact that it doesn't quite match the tone of the film, which is unfortunately subpar.

In conclusion, 'The Family Star' is an average masala film with a few notable strengths, including its good music and cinematography. Watch this film only when you don't have any other films to watch.

Few months before Katta kushthi movie came in Tamil. Good 1st half with plot set. Then worst 2nd half.

Family stat is worse than that. Such a good family loving here goes brainless all of a sudden. Story/research on him is almost predictable and his immediate reaction made me felt like Aiyo!!!

Absolutely thoughtless movie making. Mirunal has acted well for her part. Vijay is good in 1st half. But how he accepted for such reckless behavior in 2nd half - I am clueless. Probably actors do not really know anything about Audience heartbeat.

We all miss Bhagyaraj sir for screenplay. Or even Visu sir. Poor us!!!

Yes, A failed try to Glorifying Middle class Men, Middle class people are 90% of indian Population. Their is a family star in every family but this try to glorify middle class men or family star didnt justify. The hero's elder brother sequence didnt quite make sense and middle class people dont get happy with money is a ideology but the theory represents all the sequence that proves otherwise in most scene. Not a joy ride but series of various scene put togather to prove what director wanted. Better luck next time guys. Please dont make people call this typical telugu film, Next time add some quality and sence.
