Dasara

There is really no new content in this movie. I was expecting at least a mediocre movie as the reviews were a bit mixed on social media. The first half is watchable and it met my expectation.

The real struggle started after intermission. The placement of song "chemkeela angeelesi" gave me instant disaster vibes. I liked Nani's previous outing ante sundharaniki but this character didn't really suit him. The entire effort went into cinematography and set pieces. Music is okay. Villain's character is under written and routine. Keerthy is forgettable. Climax is forced. Overall, I don't really remember at least one good scene in this movie.

A typical village based revenge story The only part which made me give it a few stars was the fabulous acting and a little bit of entertainment in the last 30mins, other than that this is just another time pass film. U can watch it if u want to sleep in an hour or if u have immense amount free time. I expected it to be atleast a little good because of the 7.3 rating, but it turned out to be a little bit better than a disaster. The hype it got because of its promotions was something they shouldn't have done. It was fine uptil a limit, but it was overdone. It's just the acting for me, nothing else. Most characters had no importance, it was just focused on few characters. One happy thing to be noted is that the ones ignored weren't female characters and the heroines, they were given equal importance.

I watched expecting it to be good based on the trailer and hype however was disappointed.

There was hardly any story though there were moments here and there. The movie is inconsistent and does not have that wow factor.

The locales and some of the scenes are shot nicely. The songs are different and couple of them are good.

From performance point of view, Keerthy Suresh does a superb job and is the best of the lot. She gives her character Vannela life and is one of the shining points in the otherwise dull movie.

Nani has his moments but is let down by the script. He is exceptional in some of the emotional moments. Some of his scenes with Keerthy are good.

Dasara is a high adrenaline action, revenge drama that is set in the backdrop of singareni coal mines. The movie, the characters and dialogues are all out and out Telangana.

The story is simple and as you have seen in many commercial movies, but screenplay and mass elements never let the pace of the movie down. But there is a unexpecting twist which changes the entire course of events and sets up tone for the latter part of the movie.

The way the director deals with the story and characters is fresh. Even though the movie has good entertainment, there are certain parts which are lagging and slow.

The village sets and props are amazing and well made. The songs are great. The action part is the king of this story, combined with high emotions.

This is Nani's one of the best performance in his career. Watch it for Nani.

Sorry but apart from few performances -scenes here and there, I got bored half way. Cinema is not engaging, villain is not powerful. Production values and cinematography is good.

Nani performed good and this is his first time trying a challenging character, he suited well. He worked hard for the character and we can clearly see it in the movie.

Keerthy suresh , I m not 100% convinced with her character. Just okay. I m happy that this movie made money.

People who love gore and violence.. its okayish movie to watch one time.

For people who want logical and neat movies.. you can skip this one.
