Story :

 Naresh is born in a small village to Naresh and Hema. Due to few situations in the village, he gets separated from their parents. He grows up some where in a city. A certain incident and fight sequence makes him a hero. He falls in love with Monal Gajjar. Knowing that Monal Gajja likes the classical dancers, Naresh learns dance and participates in a television reality dance show. He wins her heart but her father doesn’t agree to their marriage since Naresh is from a poor family. Following a rib tickling comedy sequence, Naresh challenges that he would become a rich man and the game starts. Will Naresh become rich? What makes Naresh search for his parents? Will Naresh meet his parents?

Wait. The above is just one thread. There is another parallel thread in which Naresh keeps killing various people using different movie strategies. Why does Naresh kill all these goons? Is there any reason behind that? By any chance, is he a undercover cop like Krishna Manohar in Pokiri?

Performances :

Starting from the first shot till the end, Naresh carried the entire film on his shoulders and did complete justice to his role. Without ‘Naresh’, this movie couldn’t have been made. You will see a lot of difference in his acting ability  and finesse in the comedy sequences. A special credit should be given for his dances. Especially, his dances moves where he imitates Allu Arjun’s dances from Badrinath,Desamuduru and Tarak’s dances from Shakti and Andhrawala.  There is nothing much to discuss about other actors. Besides Naresh, every other artist just filled the bill and brought some laugher.

Analysis :

It is very difficult to make a film like this. In tollywood, there are hundreds of films released every year. If you have to pick few famous scenes from all those films, it is a really challenging task. Besides that, a film like this requires an actor who could generate laugh with anything that he does on the screen. For the first thing, Bhimaneni did a great job for picking all the famous scenes from the films and etching it beautifully in the story. ‘Bhimaneni Srinivasa Rao’ is definitely a ‘Remka king’ after ‘Ravi Raja Pinisetty’. He showed his mettle while directing the remake films ‘suswagatham’ and ‘Annavaram’. He did a great job adapting the central story for the telugu nativity. For the second thing, Allari Naresh is the apt choice. This film would definitely join that favorite list.

Drawbacks :

• This movie is actually a bioscope of 100 films. When the movie begins, you will feel good when you watch various spoof scenes and dialogues. But as the movie progresses, when all such scenes keep coming, you will get bored and may not find anything new. For example, when the hero meets the heroine and says ‘O Suchi,  Nee yankamma….’ dialogues from Idiot, you may not feel the desired punch.
• Logic less scenes.
• Heroine to an extent.
• There are few scenes which are there in the trailer. But in the real film, those are not there. I guess, they used it as a marketing strategy.

Highlights :

• Usually in a regular telugu film, you watch bloopers, ‘Thank you’ messages, ‘A film by *’, messages, ‘anaganaga song with all the film crew in Magadheera’ at the end of the film. But when you see such things in the first reel itself, what would happen? The laugh riot starts from the beginning of the film itself.
• Allari Naresh’s performance.
• Allari Naresh’s dances.
• Racy entertaining screenplay.
• Hilarious scenes imitating Simham.

Verdict :

Confirmed hit. If there is good publicity, then it will be a Sudigali at the box office.
