Selfie Raja Movie Review
Post Sudigadu, Allari Naresh ran out of luck and has been running through rough patch in his career. He had huge hopes on Selfie Raja to put him back on track. However, G. Eshwar Reddy couldn't deliver the goods for him. Selfie Raja turned out to be a boring barrage of spoofs that hardly clicked.
What is it about?
Raja (Allari Naresh) is a mad selfie lover. He falls in love with Police Commissioner's daughter Swetha (Kamna). They both get married and get separated immediately due to a misunderstanding. Raja decides to end his life and in the process makes some enemies. He also hires a contract killer to kill him. Meanwhile differences between Raja and Swetha are cleared but his life is in danger. Now Raja has to save himself and his family from his enemies.
Performances:
Allari Naresh did everything he could to save this film, but sadly the weak script and pointless direction made it a tedious watch. Allari Naresh dual roles failed to make an impact. Kamna lacked the features of a heroine and Sakshi Chowdary is limited to few scenes. Prudhvi is fine with his spoof dialogues. Ravibabu, Shakalaka Shankar did their bit. There is nothing much to say about rest of cast including Saptagiri.
Technicalities:
Eshwar Reddy didn't have proper script on hands. He made desperate attempts to create humor with a plenty of spoofs thrown in. Few scenes are okay but it turned unbearable after a point. Cinematography is average. None of the songs are impressive. Editor cannot be blamed for disjoint scenes. The film is made on a tight budget which is evident in its poor quality of visuals.
Thumbs Up:
Few Spoofs
Thumbs Down:
Script
Music
Direction
Analysis:
Selfie Raja doesn't get anything right including the title. Hero taking selfies is just used in introduction scenes which has no relevance in the actual story. In fact there isn't plot in this film. Seems like they have written spoof scenes for the sake of comedy and tried to connect all of them using revenge as the plot device.
Spoof scenes in the first half will appeal to the frontbenchers, but even those scenes failed to make an impact in the second hour. There is a glimmer of hope when Allari Naresh's dual character is introduced in the interval scene. Second half completely goes off track and makes us wait for this torture to end.
Allari Naresh has been churning out some bad comedies in recent times. Selfie Raja will make them seem alright. This is totally avoidable stuff from the ace comedy hero unless you could laugh at every petty joke. If you are seeking entertainment, watch any Naresh's film on youtube for free rather paying to watch this one.
Verdict: Unbearable Raja.
