Story :
Baadshah (NTR) is the youngest and most aggressive player in the international crime syndicate headed by Saadhu Bhai (Kelly Dorji). Baadshah’s father Ranjan (Mukesh Rushi) operates a very profitable casino in Macau and he is a trusted aide of Saadhu Bhai. Baadshah’s intelligence, ambition and aggression soon put him on a collision course with Saadhu Bhai and the Don wants to finish off the young upstart. With the help of rival Dons Crazy Robert (Ashish Vidyardhi) and Violent Victor (Pradeep Rawat), Saadhu tries to eliminate Baadshah and his family.
Saadhu also plans large scale terrorist attacks in all the major metros of India. Baadshah vows to foil the plans of Saadhu and to do this, he takes the help of Janaki (Kajal) and her father Jai Krishna Simha (Nasser). Jai Krishna Simha is the Police Commissioner of Hyderabad and he is a very strict head of a joint family that also includes Padmanabha Simha (Brahmanandam).
As the story progresses, it becomes clear that there is more to Baadshah than what meets the eye. He has a tragic past and a powerful motive for taking on Saadhu Bhai. What is that motive? Who is Baadshah? How does Padmanabha Simha fit into the plans of Baadshah? That forms the rest of the story.
Artists Performance
baadshahNTR: NTR has changed his looks and tried a different character. His hairstyle and projection looks more like that of don Dawood Ibrahim. He has got a role that has purpose, action orientation, family bonding and comedy. He is very stylish in action sequences and his comedy timing in second half is very good. He has danced with renewed vigor in all songs. There is a ‘Justice Chowdary’ scene in the second half and NTR resembles his grandfather very well. You will see him imitating NTR in some entertaining item songs.
baadshahOthers: Mahesh Babu has given voice-over for the main characters of the movie. Kajal Agarwal is very good as the female lead who ambition in life is to convert good-for-nothing people into achievers. Siddharth did a guest role. Navdeep did another important character. The man who clicked the most in the film among comedians is Brahmanandam. Brahmanandam is excellent as the man who thinks that he is in dream phase (inception film). Nasser has been slowly transforming from a character actor into a comedian. His work in this film turns him into a total comedian and his own dubbing for the character is good. Nasser is the second best comedian after Brahmanandam. MS Narayana portrays the character of a film director ‘Revenge Nageswara Rao’ who is known for violence (targeted directly at Ram Gopal Varma) and whose tweets are infamous. Vennela Kishore provides entertainment as side kick of hero. There are many other actors and all of them are properly cast.
Technical department
baadshahStory - screenplay - direction: Story of the film looks little familiar. Seenu Vaitla has used his strength of comedy/entertainment again in this movie. First half has the comedy of Kajal Agarwal, Vennela Kishore and MS Narayana. Second half has the comedy of Brahmanandam and Nassar. NTR character is the one that is responsible for comedy threads to be initiated in the entire film. Brahmanandam has performed ‘kotha bangaru lokam’ screenplay and reality show screenplay in Ready and Dookudu respectively. The writing team of Baadshah has come up with another humorous screenplay concept (they call it ‘psycho splitism’ - done with China piece developed for inception concept) that mixed the both concepts above and still looks fresh. The sangeeth dance episode by ladies is entertaining in second half. You get to see legend NTR’s item songs Puttintollu Tarimesaru, Gudiwadakellaanu, Nee Illu Bangaram Kaanu and Gu ggu ggu gudesundi performed by Sudha, Pragati, Surekha Vani and Satya Kishnan respectively.
Final Say:
Baadshah has many similarities to Srinu Vaitla's early movies but still he manages to keep the audience engrossed with some good comedy tracks. The first half of the movie is good with some excellent performance by MS Narayana supported by NTR and Kajal. The movie slowed down a bit towards the interval bang. The second half of the movie is a total laughing riot with all the comedians unleashed. Go for it!
