KUBERAA

watched #KUBERAA : there are a few kinds of movies which while watching you get sucked into the brilliant concept, near-realistic execution, career-best performances by the lead and supporting cast and yet you come out of the theatre with a feeling that something is missing…..and Kuberaa is one such movie where I enjoyed the offbeat concept and narration but I might hesitate to suggest others to watch this movie as I overheard conversations of a few audience members feeling that the movie is a test to their patience

Story wise, we have seen many movies with the storyline of Rich vs Poor which has scope for pure commercial formula!!! But its Sekhar Kammula’s vision to set up an Ultra Rich vs a Beggar in a near Realistic approach without any commercial elements should be appreciated 🙏

Especially the way he designed few scenes, only a director who gives ZERO FUCKS to Hero Worship and Commercial Story Telling can pull such things off 🙏

Acting wise Dhanush is sure-shot to get all the awards for his acting…His body language, Smile, Dialogue Delivery everything makes us believe that he has been a beggar since his childhood….The only thing that put me off was I felt Dhanush was a bit hefty in a couple of scenes for a Beggar 😂😉

In his Vast Career I personally feel that No Role has perfectly suited Nagarjuna’s body language and Voice Modulation as much as this role suited him 🙏 It's as if he was born to portray this role to perfection 🫡

Initially I was surprised why Sekhar ditched Sai Pallavi for Rashmika, but after watching movie I understood that out of all Sekhar’s movies this is the one which has weak arc for an actress but still it's yards ahead when compared to Heroine roles in other movies…and Rashmika though with her own limitations and regular trying to be cute expressions gave way more mature performance

The only commercial aspect of this movie is DSP’s Background Music….and he did elevate intense scenes with his terrific BGM which gives goosebumps.

Special Shout Out to the Thought provoking dialogues….especially the one where Rashmika indirectly makes all of us realise that we are Beggars in one way or the other is purely Philosophical 🙏

Length of the movie could be a reason for complaint for some….but that's the case with each and every Sekhar’s movie. I have seen a few reviews complaining about abrupt climax but I felt with no commercial elements included where the Hero is not educated to take on the Corporate system Intelligently nor has brute power to beat the shit out of them…then it's the only possible way to reach the climax of the movie, else it would have been a never-ending saga 🙄
