Review – Murder – An over dramatic tale of emotions

RGV is the only maker who has released multiple films during the lockdown. After a film called Coronavirus, he has released yet another film called Murder based on a real-life story of a boy named Pranay who was killed in Telangana. Read on to see what this film has in store for us.

Plot

Madhava Rao(Srikanth Iyengar) is a respectful person in society and leads a happy life with his wife Vanaja(Gayatri Bhargavi) and daughter Namrata(Sahiti). He raises his daughter so well and is so close to her. Whatever his daughter asks, Madhava Rao fulfills it. But things go wrong when Sahiti falls in love with a young boy and even elopes and marries him. What extreme steps did Madhava Rao take after seeing his daughter ditch him forms the story of Murder?

Performances

Srikanth Iyengar is the main highlight of the film and draws you with his spellbinding performance. The way he shows love and care for his daughter in the first half and transforms himself like a man filled with hatred and anger, Srikanth has shown it so beautifully. Gayatri Bhargavi also gets a meaty role and she does well to evoke an emotional outburst that will bind you with her act. Sahiti, who plays the main girl is also neat. RGV has trained her well but she could not get the needed impact in the film as a more mature actress could have made wonders to the film.

The film is shown more in Srikanth Iyengar’s angle and is mostly supporting his act and this might raise an issue with many. Too much hardcore BGM also makes some scenes a bit irritatable. The film has nice scenes and the major performances are good. More the plight of the girl’s story, this film highlights Srikanth Iyendar’s action and in a nutshell, ends as a predictable drama which is nothing great.
