Both actor Gopichand and director Srinu Vaitla have been struggling with successive defeats for years… Now both of them are aiming for victory together with ‘Viswam’ and they are standing in the ring of Vijayadashami. This is the first movie of their combo. Good expectations have already been formed on this.
The story is.. Jalaluddin Qureshi (Jishu Sen) is a hardened ISI terrorist. Living in India under the alias of Sanjay Sharma, he is preparing students as terrorists under the guise of the education system. With their help, he creates a plan to destroy India on a large scale. For this he takes the help of Bachiraju (Sunil), the brother of Union Minister Sitaramaraj (Suman). But when Sitaramaraj comes to know about his atrocities, Jalaluddin kills him along with Bachiraju. A little girl named Darshan sees this murder. Jalaluddin tells Bachiraju to kill that baby too and goes to Kashmir for some work. But when Bachiraju’s gang is about to kill the baby, Vishwam (Gopichand), who is introduced as Gopireddy to the child’s family, saves him. The stories in Srinu Vaitla’s films follow a theme. There is a threat to the country from some seditious forces. In order to destroy those conspiracies, the hero hides his identity and joins a house under a pseudonym and undertakes a secret mission.
Analysis: The films ‘Dookudu’ and ‘Baadshah’ from director Srinu Vaitla belong to this category. As this theme became routine, Srinu faced a series of defeats. That’s why this time he has completely changed his approach… he said in the promotional programs that he has prepared ‘Viswam’ with a story full of novelty that other audiences want. But, while watching the movie on the screen, it seems that he still hasn’t really come out of his old ways. In one piece, this film is like Gopichand’s version of ‘Dookudu’. If the father’s emotion is seen in Mahesh Babu’s ‘Dookudu’, then a child’s emotion is crucial. Everything else is Srinu Vaitla’s brand of entertainment.. Gopichand’s style of action goes on like a routine. The film starts interestingly with the bomb blast episode in Dwarka. The director immediately introduced the character of Jalaluddin and took him directly into the story. Seriousness is missing in the story. From here the fun of Srinu Vaitla Mark starts. Prithvi’s mischief as Jalibabu. Srinivas’s comedy track as a marriage broker will bring laughter to the audience. And the Italy Lovetrack episode between the protagonists seems boring. The seriousness of the story begins when Bachiraju starts plotting again to kill the baby. In this sequence, the way it is interspersed with the action sequence in the background of Goa is interesting. Gopichand, as usual, has adapted well in his usual action role. He burst out in his own style in action and comedy sequences. Kavya Thapar looked glamorous on screen with her beauty. The length of his character is also high. Got an opportunity to show talent in dances. Otherwise, he did not get a chance to show his talent in terms of acting. Jishu Sengupta as the main villain impresses with his usual villainy. Sunil was shown as a comedy villain throughout except for one or two scenes. Chinnari, who played the pivotal role of Darshan in this story, impressed with her fine performance. Naresh, Pragati, Vennela Kishore, Prithvi, VTV Ganelish, Ajay Ghosh… so many comedians appeared. Each of them tried to make people laugh according to the scope of their role. Srinu Whitela’s talent as a commercial director is not to be underestimated. If not, his routine is not out of the commercial format. Writer Gopimohan also seems to be riding the same theme. Story.. They are not able to show novelty in the stories. Chaitan Bharadwaj’s music sounds fine. The song ‘Gunguru Gunguroo’ by Bheems entertains the mass audience. The visuals are grand. We have to appreciate the courage of the producers who believed in such a routine story and spent a lot of money.
