    A MUST WATCH MOVIE

    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.

    Epic

    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.

    You are born alone and die alone, everything else in-between is just an epic play.

    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.

    Best Family Emotions

    One of the best family emotional drama on screen, in the recent days.

    Prakash raj, as usual he is the best. He lived in that character of Raghava rao. His wife played by Ramya Krishna.. she has become a lot matured and too good.

    Brahmanandam, a friend of Raghava.. my god he did a fantastic job. I have never seen him play such a versatile character apart from just being a comedian.

    The story is all about a retired stage artist who has to face his next generation kids and not able to live with the their ideology revolving around money 💰, even at the cost of fighting with their parents 😞

    There are moments where you will end up with tears in your eyes!!

    Also some places, where it feels like the movie is going slow !!

    Overall, i liked it. It's a good message to all the youngsters to take care of their parents.
