Story :
Balaram (Venkatesh) is a good hearted strongman of
the village of Bheemarajapuram. He treats everyone with fairness and
takes care of their needs. But there is one thing that Balaram cannot
tolerate and that is lying. If he catches someone lying, Balaram metes
out a severe punishment to the offender.
Into this scenario comes in Rahman (Ram). Along with
his sister Sania (Anjali), Rahman comes to the village in search of a
job. With a brave deed, he falls into the good books of Balaram but
circumstances force him to change his name to Ram. He soon becomes a
trusted aide of Balaram and all is well for a while.
However, Balaram catches Rahman while he is offering
Namaz and asks him for an explanation. Out of desperation, Rahman
reveals that he has a younger brother named Rahman. (He says the
brother’s name is Rahman, since Balaram knows the original guy as Ram).
This Rahman character is portrayed as a gay and Balaram tasks him with teaching his sister (Shazahn Padamsee) the art of dance.
Rahman struggles to manage the roles of Ram and
Rahman and a confusion drama ensues. As can be expected, the truth comes
out in the end and Balaram is outraged. Will he forgive Rahman? That
forms the story of ‘Masala’
Plus Points :
Venkatesh is quite entertaining as Balaram. Some of
his butler english dialogues manage to evoke a strong response from the
viewers. Ram looks good and he has managed to portray both the
characters of Ram and Rahman quite effortlessly. He manages to make
people laugh with his gay comedy.
The movie has some entertaining moments in the first
half. A few comedy scenes between Venkatesh and Jayaprakash Reddy have
come out well. In the second half, Ram’s gay comedy sequences have come
out well.
Minus Points :
Rohit Shetty liberally borrows ideas from Telugu
films and ‘Bol Bachchan’ is no exception. To ‘remake’ a film like that
in Telugu is a strange idea. Rohit Shetty’s films work due to the good
entertainment quotient but they usually do not have strong story lines.
‘Masala’ too suffers from this issue.
The plot is quite stale and outdated. Kovai Sarala’s recording dance scenes look garish. The twists and jokes are quite predictable.
Another big issue is the placement of songs in
the film. The songs are quite mediocre and they do not help the film in
any way. Shazahn Padamsee needs to brush up her acting skills as she
has one single expression for all emotions. Anjali has been wasted in an
insignificant role.
The climax block is terrible, with poor graphics and unnecessary hungama.
Technical Aspects :
Cinematography is quite average. Editing is not smooth as there are a number of jump cuts in the film. Thaman’s background score is ok but the songs do not have his trademark energy levels. Anil Ravipudi’s dialogues are good in places.
Vijay Bhaskar’s direction is not very impressive. Entertainment quotient and pace keep dipping at a number of places.
Verdict :
‘Masala’ has a few good moments. Venkatesh and Ram
have tried their best to carry the film with their comedy timing. But a
stale plot and outdated screenplay hamper their efforts. Any Masala gets
a perfect flavour and taste only when the ingredients are blended in the right proportions. Sadly, that is not the case with this ‘Masala’.

Review : Singam (Yamudu 2)
Title :Singam (Yamudu 2) (2013)
- Star Cast : Surya, Anushka Shetty, Hansika…
- Director : Hari
- Producer : S Lakshman Kumar
- Genre : Action – Romance
- Music : Devi Sri Prasad
- Released on : July 05, 2013.
Narasimham (Surya) is a powerful police officer. He earns reputation as a brave police officer after solving a difficult case in Goa. With confidence on Narasimham, CM gives the responsibility of a special case to Narasimham. An international gang is importing illegal arms and weapons from foreign nations to Kakinada. Narasimham has to nab that gang. Surya goes to Kakinada on that mission, not as a police but as a NCC master. By working as NCC master itself, Surya finds out that Thyagaraju, Bhai and Dolly are main culprits in that illegal activity. Only after finding out these details, he takes charge as DSP. How Narasimham nabs these three baddies and saves Kakinada is rest of the story.
This is a pucca mass and action story. Though there isn’t any story, action sequences abound. Director Hari has planned action sequences pretty well. Story runs slowly till Surya takes charge as DSP. It gathers pace after caste clashes in Kakinada. Though it appears that Hansika’s character is just for running story, her character attains significance with drama created in the final stages of the movie. Audience get to see foreign chase scenes in climax, as Narasimham goes to South Africa to catch Dolly.
Compared to Yamudu, Singam has less twists. For that matter there are no twists at all. Yamudu runs with Surya and Prakashraj plotting against each other and outsmarting each other. But there is no such drama in Singam. It’s a complete one sided war with Surya bashing goons at every possible instance. Though action sequences appear as coming just for the sake of action episodes, B and C centre audience will enjoy no doubt.
It appears, just because Anuska starred in Yamudu, director decided to cast her in Singam also. There is no special role for her except dancing in songs. Hansika’s situation is also more or less same, but she has been useful in creating drama in the end. Though Anjali appeared sexy, camera could not capture her beauties perfectly. Lack of a powerful villain is the main drawback of Singam. Santhanam comedy is artificial.
Surya excelled in action scenes. Someone has dubbed for Surya. All through the movie Surya appears shouting in such a loud voice that dubbing artiste’s voice might have sure damaged. Surya has done dances also like fights, unable to come out of police emotion. Devi Sri Prasad music is on the lines of a dubbed movie music. Even in RR, we don’t find his mark. Producers have dished out huge money. Movie appears very rich. Tamil flavour is visible in each and every frame.
Singam has shown the power of Police in an effective way. Though action scenes are excellent, Hari mark narration and twists are missing. As a result, Singam limits itself to mass audience.
