Varudu

The film is loosely based on ‘Ramayanam’ and the same concept has been later adapted in films like ‘Varsham’. Apart from this, parts of ‘Varudu’ have been clearly inspired from Gunasekhar’s own film ‘Okkadu’. ‘Varudu’ works to a large extent, thanks to powerful performances by Arya and Allu Arjun, especially during action sequences. The film is definitely loud and over the top at times, but perhaps there is no other way to narrate it when Gunasekhar chose to mould Arya’s role as Diwakar as seen in the film. It’s a well written film which could have been much better.

Could have been made carefully

"A good marriage leads to good off springs, good off springs lead to a good family, a good family leads to a good society." This is what the movie wanted to convey. But we have to wait and see whether this message has been just reflected in the dialogues or has it reached the audience's hearts.
