Desa Muduru Telugu Movie
First the good things about Desa Muduru:
The comedy track of Ali getting kidnapped and then landing up with the police, from police to Naxalites, from Naxalites to the Border Security Forces, from BSF to Al-Qaida, and from Al Qaida to the Himalayas is a very original and creative comedy work. The continuation of misery for the comic was definitely funny.
The next good thing is that a super fit Alu Arjun.
That's about it for good things in Desa Muduru…
Now, the bad things:
No great story, no great acting, and just one good song and too many bad scenes are what Desa Muduru is all about.
The analysis:
Well, Puri Jagannath has every right to come up with a super duper flop. And he claims his undeniable right with Desa Muduru. It is bad luck that Alu Arjun was part of the misadventure called Desa Muduru. While Puri Jagannath has a Pokiri and several hit movies to fall back on in times of career slumps like this, Alu Arjun doesn't have such great cushions to fall back and move ahead with his career. Desa Muduru is the first flop by Puri, whereas it's one more flop for Alu Arjun. This makes the going tough for the young star.
The excitement of Alu Arjun for getting a chance to work with Puri was palpable in every shot of the movie. He danced with frenzy and acted like a man possessed. But too much of enthusiasm doesn't help either. Sadly his over enthusiasm tainted his performance by making it senseless. The viewer had no clue to his shouting, ranting, and raving.
Puri Jagannath should not be reminded that if people want to watch bronzed bodies they would go to a gym or sit before the TV to watch a Mr. Universe competition. Alu Arjun doing a Salman Khan every now and then did not make any sense. The hero being super fit is welcome, but showing off the body time and again should have some purpose.
When a good director experiments with novel themes sometimes they don't work. One flop can hardly have any impact on his career. He has miles to go and one flop is nothing. Hope his next movie would be better than Desa Muduru.
Meanwhile viewers can definitely watch Desa Muduru once. They owe it to Puri Jagannath who has given hits like Pokiri.
