Karthikeya 2 Movie Review

 

Telugu360 Rating 3/5

Story :

Dr. Karthikeya ( Nikhil) is a rational guy who finds scientific reasoning behind superstitious things. He along with Swati ( Anupama Paremeswaran), Srinivasa Reddy gets into trouble with gangs who are in search for Lord Srikrishna’s ornaments. The theme is adventurous genre with shades of treasure hunt and mythology mixed adequately

Analysis:

Director Chandoo Mondeti had scored a solid hit with racy thriller Karthikeya – 1, and the scale is ramped up a lot for the sequel. Given the extra budget the team got, the theme has been changed as well. Story wise Karthikeya -2 is not a great one, but the different backdrop and introducing new elements at regular intervals the team had succeeded in engaging the audience. Second half is focused on elevating Lord Krishna’s characteristics. On many occasions, it has been played well to the galleries.

First half of the film is primarily revolving around Dwaraka, Krishna devotees Abhira tribe thread is interesting premise. By the interval, multiple threads in parallel create curiosity and in second half ties them well. The Hinduism fervor spread across India at present helps this movie commercially. Good thing about the film is there is no routine love track as such between the hero and heroine.
Production values are very good given the limitations.

Performances:

Nikhils carries the film on his shoulder effortless. Anupama Parameswaran did her part neatly. Comedian Srinivasa Reddy got a lengthy role after a while. Anupam Kher in his short presence elevated the film very well. Main villain could have been played by somebody else of bigger stature, but Aditya is okay.

Positives :

The script offers freshness
The Genre has universal appeal
Smart usage of Hindu Card
Engaging drama
Nikhil’s neat performance

Negatives:

Very cinematic liberties at times
Story is all over the top

Verdict:

Karthikeya-2 is an engaging travelogue through Hindu pilgrimages. It’s an adventurous concept clubbed with Hindu Mythological theme. The scale of the script is humongous, and the execution is appreciable. Overall, a decent film to watch

Acid Test for Nithiin and Nikhil

1

After two months of disastrous run for Telugu films, Bimbisara and Sita Ramam brought back the glory of Telugu cinema. Both these films are performing exceptionally well and they proved that the Telugu audience will always shower their love on cinema. Trade analysts expect that the films will have a dream run at the box-office and the new releases will not have an impact on their run. Nithiin’s Macherla Niyojakavargam and Nikhil’s Karthikeya 2 are the Telugu releases apart from Bollywood biggies like Aamir Khan’s Laal Singh Chaddha and Akshay Kumar’s Raksha Bandhan.

Both Nithiin and Nikhil have pinned high hopes on their new releases. Nithiin’s Check and Rang De ended up as duds and Maestro headed for a direct digital release. Nikhil was absent from the past two years because of the pandemic. Both Macherla Niyojakavargam and Karthikeya 2 are carrying decent expectations. With two big hits in the recent week and many releases over this weekend, the audience will have a lot of options. Macherla Niyojakavargam and Karthikeya 2 should live up to the expectations to end up as hits. Else, they would be rejected badly considering the current trend and taste of the audience.

The much-anticipated premiere of ‘Karthikeya 2’ has caused issues for the young actor, Nikhil Siddhartha though. In a recent media interview, Nikhil stated that he now realised how challenging it is to set a release date and then carry it out.

According to him, ‘Karthikeya 2’ was initially slated to hit theatres on July 22, but that date was later changed to August 12. As the producers are now required to reschedule the release for October starting on this date. The actor admitted, “The powerless situation made me cry.”

Nikhil, a rising star in Tollywood, has a number of intriguing projects planned for the future. He will star in the ‘Karthikeya 2’, the sequel to his super hit movie ‘Karthikeya’, as well as the suspense thriller ‘118’ alongside Anupama Parameswaran. With their intriguing concept art and trailers, both of these movies have generated a lot of talk, but have been facing issues related to their release dates.
