Behind the Movie Mahesh:
Talented youngster Sandeep Kishan waiting for a break through in Telugu
films has finally got some sort of recognition in Tamil with ‘Yaaruda
Mahesh’ dubbed into Telugu as ‘Mahesh’ offered to us by Suresh Kondeti
in direction of Madan Kumar. Let us see what is this ‘Mahesh’ all about?
In the Movie Mahesh:
Story begins with introduction to two go lucky young Engineering
college guys Siva (Sandeep) and Vasanth (Jagan) spending most of the
time in bars and pubs. While Vasanth has a girl friend, Siva having 10
backlogs to complete the graduation falls in love with batch mate
Sandhya (Dimple). Due to the same youth attitude, Siva and Sandhya end
up in bed and Sandhya who has to travel US for future studies becomes
pregnant. As parents from both the sides agree, Sandhya and Siva get
married with a male kid born.
To Sandhya’s surprise, Siva still
continues to enjoy his life without responsibility. Here comes a twist
when Siva is locked in a doubt that the reason for pregnancy of Sandhya
is not him but one more anonymous guy Mahesh. Once Siva starts the
journey to find who this Mahesh is, there are plenty of episodes to
finally reveal on what is the actual truth behind?
Values & Out of the Movie Mahesh:
Into the same favorite genre of Good Cinema Group, even Mahesh is
targeted at youth audience with bundles of adult humor and aversion to
women. The sole purpose of movie is unknown till we reach the interval
block. In fact, audiences find it difficult to bear entire first half
although Jagan’s comedy (dubbed by Dhanraj) kept us in splits here and
there. Episode by episode, director Madan Kumar scouted for those
elements which can just keep youth audience in their seats. In this
process, screenplay is thrown into a dustbin with no purpose and point
established and Arava flavor oozing. When Madan Kumar tried to tie on
the loose ends in first half with justification in second half using
episodes of Gay Mahesh, Drummer Mahesh, Slumdog Mahesh blah blah…we tend
to lose the interest and excitement. Even in second half, Jagan and
Dhanraj were at their best. Direction of Madan Kumar, dialogues and
production values of Suresh Kondeti were loathsome; resembled of
watching a low quality TV serial. Rana’s cinematography was good for
canning of songs while editing missed the elementary standards. Music by
Gopi Mohan was also pathetic at its best.
Performance wise Sandeep Kishan is
pretty average without any changeover in his body language from first to
second half. Dimple is good looking and the bedroom song was well shot
on both. Jagan literally lifted the movie levels at least to reach one
section of audience else this is a dud. The way pre-climax and climax
were shot showed the exhaustion in entire team. No more artists to
mention in special. For youth public who love to enjoy those liberal and
unstoppable adult and double meaning dialogues, ‘Mahesh’ may be a hard
one-time watcher and for others this is horrible.
