Ranga Maarthaanda

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Right from the start off the director's choice of outdated narration and dragged screenplay were slowly overlooked by the emotional connect that he's presented and character progression we come across throughout the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

Prakash Raj and Brahmanandam magnum opus. I had never this duo together except in comedic roles. But this heart wrenching story brings out the best in both of them. The dialogue between them re-enacting the dialogue between Dhuryodhana and Karna, during the last moments of Karna on the battlefield of Kurukshetra is so complex and yet so subtle, Words fall short to describe their incredible chemistry and performance.

The story items if a poetic ironical events that play out in the life of Prakash Raj's character, Ranga Marthanda. The story depicts the different characters that perform their play in the stage of life.

Must watch family movie.

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.

As we all know Prakash sir is the greatest artist..he will definitely exceed your ecpectation. The movie narrates the life of an artist , telugu culture and especially the pain of a father and mother. Inspite of all the odd situations they face they stay together..they respect each other..that is beautifully narrated by Krishna vamsi sir. The bond between Prakash raj and Bramhanandam is the other highlight of the movie...hospital scene will definitely make you cry. Take a bow ramya mam prakash sir bramhanandam sir for your acting skills. I would like to see bramhanandam garu more like this.

Must watch family movie.
