Rakta Charitra

Before starting about RGV and all the hype he does. Primary factor to be discussed here is the Story of the movie. As everybody knows Raktacharitra is a make of popular rivalry between Paritala Ravindra and MaddelaCheruvu Suryanarayana, most of us in Andhrapradesh knows the facts of the story. But the unknown facts hidden are always hidden under the darkest corner of the history. And to find them all in a movie is greater experience. The movie provides wonderful and powerful story which Indian audience are missing since years. As the title shows it, the soul of the story is revenge, power and politics; And all the three factors not in tuxedo style, but on pure Indian grounds. All the three factors played significant role to make the story powerful.

But, the movie, play and storytelling could be better. The movie opens with a murder scene in daylight; Which introduces us with the emotion and heat of the story world. When story slowly unfolds a stretch of scenes are merely visual and audible, No scene development is done; which resulted in no emotion and banal storytelling and a feeling of watching Discovery Documentary show. Adding to the fuel, RGV's Voice- over is a partial disaster but he was able to carry the emotion of the scene and intention of the story in his voice. The scope of the first half is huge. A director can ask for no more. There is lot of politics going around in the first half which would've resulted in an epic drama if scenes are well planned. Unfortunately, no ideas in Storytelling and screenplay were used and all drama was wasted. Maybe the director doesn't wanted the screenplay to dominate the story? Wat soever, It could've been an epic.

After the first episode, The big time drama starts and audience lost themselves in to the dramatic world of the story. Politics, Power, Revenge and Powerful Characters are the life of this movie. Every scene is linked, has value and content. Raktacharitra is gore story and demands gore scenes. You cannot see a Gandhi with a missile and Adolf Hitler preaching Peace. This movie is presented as it is chosen by Story and the story is chosen by reality.

Other Factors

RGV could've concentrated on the dubbing artists which brought previous movie experiences and confused audience unknowingly.

Screenplay and scene development cud be better.

The idea of voice-over is good to make the lengthy story short and a direct interaction of story teller to the audience.

One song is an abuse to the movie.

We need more movies with content. Thanks to RGV

RGV has done it again and it is a complete Varma's movie. It is no less than a movie that remains forever. Story narration by RGV in Telugu is apt for the genre of the movie that he selected. Story goes as it is supposed to go with no flaw in any corner of the movie. Varma did a great job in selecting appropriate characters for the roles. Vivek was stunning in the role as Paritala Ravi. Portrayal of characters with no compromise is what every director has to learn from RGV. Am eagerly waiting for its sequel to release which is going to hit screens on 19th Nov. There would not be any look back in going to movie on first day even for its sequel (Rakta Charitra 2).

First of all if u don't like movies having blood defying action, then this one is not your flick.

For all those action lover guys, Rakhtcharitra is one of the best action movie in 2010. Based on the true events of AP, the movie never disappoints due to the marvelous action and acting of the stars.

Vivek is kind of actor which has specialized himself in Gangster kind of roles. Raghu of company, Mayabhai of Company and now Pratap of Rakhtcharitra. He has portrayed the character of Pratap with an ease and never let you down.

But the surprise act was from Abhimanyu singh (Bukka Reddy). He has proved his acting skills in Gulaal, but he still needed a big one to solidify him self. And he come with Bukka reddy: A character which reminds you of a Rakshash. He has snatched this movie from all other actors. You must watch this for Abhimanyu Singh.

And lastly the King of Dark movies in India: Ram Gopal Verma. He always make good movies pertaining to Politics, Gangster and Horror. He is the Quentin Torrentino of Indian Cinema. Great work by him behind the scene, which makes this movie a delight for eye.

For action lovers: Strongly recommended.

Last movie of rgv i viewed in a theater was Aag. I have never expected this to b like the way it is. It has no unnecessary scenes no stupid dialogs and every one in the movie has been their best in their roles.... although the best 1 being of Bhukha. There are nice & unexpected scenes in the movie which made the movie more interesting. The first half killed almost 75% of the villains so i thought there would not be much in the second half but vivek transforming into a politician and using white ways to kill the Gundas made the movie 1 of the best 1 for rgv. It contains a lot of Blooody scenes, so i ask them who never liked movies like Saw or Wrong Turn don't go u may not like this one. "Topic is over"

rakta charitra has only one feeling throughout, that of revenge. yet it makes you feel it non-stop for more than two hours. at the end of it you cant wait for rakta charitra 2. varma is at his violent best. without unnecessary flashbacks and narratives he starts with a voice over and right away gets to the heart of faction violence, the revenge. basic human emotions like love and revenge can push ordinary men into extreme situations. the story is unique and most of it is true. the cast in this movie did excellent job, vivek, shatrughan, singh, just eased into their roles. background score reflected the mood and dabbunnoda song in varma style reflects the lone moment of celebration. cinematography is good and never too colorful which suits the mood and content of the film. this movie certainly lives up to the expectations. whats more? surya is joining the cast for RC 2. surely its gonna get better.
