I've seen 7 episodes of this I felt this is very different than what I have seen before. This also follows the Sandeep Vangas's Pattern of Film making and one will love how consistently it is inconsistent throughout the whole proceedings. There are episodes that can be easily cut , such as the Nitya's episode's love track between Her and Rehan. But beyond that the monotonous storyline is well executed on screen and the Toxicity way beyond the reality at some places. Haven't watched Ray Donovan but would love spend some time on it in future for sure. Lastly , yes there are issues in the content like promoting cheating, infidelity and use of cuss words but at-least this won't waste your time.
Rana Daggubati garu and Venky mama are absolutely fantastic as Rana Naidu and Naga Naidu respectively!! Loved seeing them together! Really enjoyed hearing them speaking in Hindi.
Surveen Chawla is smoking hot and stunning as the wife of Rana Naidu! She's really great in her role.
Aditya Menon garu is freaking good, have seen him in many Telugu films and he's a great actor! He should do Hindi films as well.
Never seen Ray Donovan but very well adapted for Indian audiences. The nudity, sex scenes and cuss words are needed as it's what the script wanted
Don't mind all the bad reviews, just watch Rana Naidu and enjoy!

Pros : From starting to end, Its gripped storyline along with solid cast and acting. All roles are perfect and done justice with their respective screen time. Full marks to Ranna and Venkat for giving badass performance.
Cons : They can deal better with foundation of series where unnecessary put sexuality and minor sexual harassment (which is quite old now). Made benchmark to show higher class in such way which sometimes looks annoying and old fashion.
Netflix trying their best for Indian audiences. Its thrilling series which could be good time pass.
Rest is fine if you are not watching with family.

Well I didn't know Rana Naidu is a remake of Ray Donovan. So when i saw the teaser / trailer of Rana , i thought it would be a tale of a son and father who are pitted against each other where the father is hired to try to stop the son from his job. I expected terrific face offs and fight sequences but it wasn't to be.
Rana Naidu is basically a family crime drama where each character has a story of his own to showcase, from Rana Naidu to Naga the father to the youngest Jaffa, everyone's story is shown in this series. In between their own story lies the major one, the Rana Naga story . It's not what i thought. It's basically Naga trying to bring his family together only to find that there were secrets hidden from him and why exactly Rana hates Naga is the main story.
There's no sparks flying off like clash between Naga and Rana at all. I was dissapointed here. Just a mere collar holding and some threatening dialogues nothing else. Remaining series is only focused on others story and how the Naga Rana relationship moves .
It's a very slow moving series. The first 6 episodes are quite patience testing because there's not much happening at all other than world building. This where intense fight sequences would have helped but theres none other than sex. The last 4 is where the interesting parts start coming in and the series salvages itself a bit.
The series is filled with tons of slangs and sex, kissing scenes of all sorts . Definitely not a family series. One more thing to note, the series has no black and white characters, all have grey shades to their personalities. An aspect i liked.
Venkatesh was really enjoyable as the funny yet dangerous Naga . He seemed to be enjoying the role . Rana Daggu as Rana might not be liked by all considering his one stern expression throughout the series but you gotto understand, that was what his role or character was. Ashish Vidyarthi stood out amongst all. Man he was an absolute hilarious ride especially his journey from Hyderabad to Mumbai part was the best. Sushant Singh and Surveen chawla come together again after Hate Story 2 and they did a pretty good job . Abhishek Banerjee was also terrific as his character of a rape victim is extremely tough to play .
Music is good as well . My favourite being "Meherbaan", gave that retro Bollywood music feel.
Overall, a strictly one time watch series. Doesn't leave you excited even for any more seasons.

Watching this web series felt like i watched it already, then guessed yes!!! "a family man", saving his family and making them happy all the time. But yes it was a good experience, and more entertaining. Talking about actors and actresses, they all did best, but Rana Naidu really impressed with his role.!
Watching south movies is becoming craze amidst people, as it can be seen that they are coming with mysterious, thrilling contents and presentation of movies and series are spectacular so people are loving.
I would recommend should take a time to watch a his web series and have fun on weekends too!! Would love watching how a man is managing between family and work. Fighting to save both work and home!
