Mahatma is positive from the first day first show watchers. Telugu Movie Mahatma is released on 9th oct 2009 and is 100th film of actor Srikanth which is based on the present day social and political scenario.
In Mahatma film Srikanth plays a charectar of a rowdy by name Das who gets attracted to film industry . Das then he gets influenced by the ideologies of Mahatma Gandhi
The take-off of the movie is pretty hysterical with the title song ‘Talayetti jeevinchu Tammudaa..’ But the actual story wouldn’t start till the interval bang. The beginning of second half promises bigger things but that goes with various ups and downs. First 45 minutes of the movie goes in run of the mill style and that could have been confined to 20 minutes jumped into actual story.
The song ‘Indiramma inti peru kaadura Gandhi’ that raised controversy was changed to ‘Konthamandi inti peru kaadura Gandhi’. But Censor didn’t bother to cut down the word ‘f...k off’ used by artiste Jyothy for Kalarani character in first half.
Director seems to have ignored masses and that is evident through his selection of heroine and the get up given to her. Any other heroine would have aptly fitted in the requirement.
On a whole, the spirit of non violence, truth, accepting the mistake and perseverance are conveyed in this attempt through some scenes. But more homework should have done to make it a better product since the title is ‘Mahatma’!!!
Watch it at least to know the value of Gandhiji once again.
