'Sarocharu' Review: The script lacks depth
'Sarocharu' Review: The script lacks depth
The film has renowned actors Ravi Teja and Kajal in the lead role.

Cast:Ravi Teja, Kajal Agarwal Richa Gangopadhyay

Director: Parasuram

With 'Sarocharu', Ravi has officially added another dud to his list of films. Ravi Teja, who is colloquially the superstar, shifted away from his usual avatar to make way for a class appearance, and yet gets introduced as usual in a fight sequence.

At this juncture, not only does he fights the baddies, but takes the effort to mouth a few cliched dialogues as well. Ravi may have done well in his role, but sadly the film doesn't quite impress in any.

The film revolves around three key characters Karthik, Sandhya and Vasudha, played by Ravi, Kajal and Richa, respectively. Kajal, who considers herself the most beautiful girl on the earth, firmly believes her Prince Charming doesn't exist, until she meets Karthik.

Sandhya falls in love at first sight with Karthik and wishes to spend the rest of her life with him. But, as destiny has it, Sandhya's love rejects her. It is after Karthik reveals that he is married already.

In the flashback, the film shows that Karthik is married to Vasudha, daughter of a rich businessman, whom he met in Ooty, where he used to work as football coach at an academy. Unfortunately, the marriage doesn't last long enough and all comes to an end.

Despite knowing about the marriage, Sandhya still wishes to spend her life with him. What follows is a discovery of a hidden truth about the Karthik's past. What is the truth?

And knowing it, will Sandhya still wish to be with Karthik forever? that's what forms the crux of the the entire script.

Even though director Parasuram attempts to paint a perfect love story, which attempts to convey to the audience that extreme fondness between two won't pave way to love, but sincere understanding will, yet the film on the whole lacks deft screenplay.

The story meanders through so many sub-plots, making the audience wait patiently for the climax, which unfortunately appears as cliched as would have anticipated.

Though Parasuram succeeds in delivering what he wished to at the first place, he doesn't quite impress or inspire the audience in the whole story telling. The director presumed that the twist in the second half will work in favour of the film, but it only backfires in turn, annoying the viewers.

Ravi played his part well and as promised at the beginning of the film, mostly maintains class appearance. But he still finds reasons to throw some punches solely to entertain his fans. It is high time Kajal says no to corny roles and scouts for challenging roles with some amount of glamour a la Vidya Balan in "The Dirty Picture".

Richa's role before marriage is a repeat act of 'Mirapakaya', while her part post marriage, hardly boasts anything worth discussing. MS Narayana in a cameo is completely wasted, while Rohit in his role, is good to watch.

Devi's music is far below expectations, while other technicians have little or no scope to portray in the output.

'Sarocharu' may work for Ravi's fans, but doubts are if it can even entertain others.

What's your reaction?
