Analysis
Actually `Jatiratna’ is a magic. Even if there is no story, the actors’ comedy acting and scenes have brought laughter. It’s a hit. If you apply the same formula to everything, it is sure to fall flat. It can be said that almost the same has happened in the case of “Like Share Subscribe”. The story in this cannot be found even if you look for it with a magnifying glass. One after another the scenes come like that. There are only comedy scenes here and there.
But this movie is a proof that if you plan to create comedy in every scene, it will turn into a farce. In order to tell the story, the director has created conflict episodes between the police and the PPF force, but there is no strong conflict in it. They went to increase their following on YouTube and were caught by the revolutionary forces and their efforts to escape from there failed. But in most cases it is boring. Feeling overdone.
The lack of soul is a big minus of the movie. Without laughing scene wise, Soul Connect is not. Brahmaji is the main strength of the movie. Comedy is born from him. The actions of this gang are laughable in order to prove that they are Brahmins expelled by the PPF force. Their episodes are the highlight of the movie.
But the scenes between the hero-heroines and the scenes between the hero-comedian Sudarshan seem boring and overdone. On the other hand, they could not say strongly about the activities of the PPF force. The episode seems to be used only to drive the scenes between the heroines. But finally the didactic aspects of them are good. But they are not new. This turned into a routine comedy movie. It’s like releasing an OTT film in a theater.
Actors
Santhosh Shobhan acted well in the role of Vilabol. He tried to impress. But his scenes and dialogues seem over in many cases. The feeling of the hero imitating Nani is seen in every scene. Faria Abdullah brings laughter with her comedy. She became an asset to the film. Sudarshan, Brahmaji, and the team did it. The rest of the artists acted within the scope of their roles.
Performance of technicians
It is known that director Merlapaka Gandhi turned into a director from short films. This film is proof that he still has such feelings. His courage to make a film without a story should be applauded. Emotionally, this film does not connect in any way. And in terms of music, it is good. But the folk song is romanticized and the audience fails to connect. Rest of the songs sound ok. Visually okay. Editing still needs work. Build values are okay. It seems to have been shot on a low budget.
