    A good family entertainer movie.

    "Bhagavanth Kesari" offers a refreshing change with Bala Krishna portraying a character more suitable for his age, a welcome departure from his usual roles. Unfortunately, Kajol Aggarwal's potential is underutilized, leaving her with an unremarkable role that fails to make an impact.

    Anil Ravi Pudi's direction shines in the first half, which is filled with intrigue and excitement. However, the second half of the movie takes a disappointing turn, becoming rather dull.

    SS Thaman's music is a letdown, with the exception of "Roar of Kesari," which stands out. Sree Leela delivers a strong performance, but her youthful appearance contrasts with her character's maturity.

    The action sequences, though entertaining, lack logic and physics, but they still manage to engage the audience. The villain's acting falls within the realm of mediocrity.

    Overall, "Bhagavanth Kesari" can be described as a family entertainer, suitable for a one-time watch. It's a film that showcases Bala Krishna's age-appropriate role but falls short in utilizing the potential of its cast and soundtrack, ultimately leaving room for improvement.

    Wrong Message...Wicked Stereotypes

    Just couldn't finish full movie. Protoganist is a violant maniac and movie was clearly trying to justify this non sense character. Its one thing to fight to save someone's life but totally wrong to hit somebody for merely using bad words against you.

    Also, its unfathomable for even a villain to kill his own son just for the sake some monetary gain.

    Typical scenes in movie seems again like a superhero strength of a 60+ years old progonist who will not even take a single hit and kill people like ants. This is usual formula of indian movies and unfortunately thats what is bringing money into the business. People simply don't like sensible stories and thats really worrisome for talented directors. Its probably one of the worst times in movie history.

    Weakest piece of writing by the director Anil Ravipudi

    This is one of the weakest works by the director. It seems like the director wrote this story in their childhood and forgot to update it for the current generation, resulting in some inconsistencies. There are some flaws in the plot that don't make sense.

    The movie's success appears to hinge solely on the hero.

    The director should consider taking a break to analyze and refine their writing skills, checking you writing skills in this movie and F3. Without improvement, the next movie might risk becoming a flop, leading to the director fading away after just a few films.

    We loved your work in your early movies, I hope you will come back strongly.

    Overall you will like it #Tags

    Action Comedy Musical.

    The film may not have a good story but you will like the Action Comedy Drama Emotions Screenplay Note: Some good messeges are also given like girl safety good touch and bad touch, women's capabilities gender discrimination etc. Which you will find acceptable in present generation also.

    Everyone Justified for their given roles and NBK carries the film on his shoulders.

    Sree Leela is good in dance but could have been improved in acting areas. Kajal's role is okay Villan is new highlight.

    Just another commercial movie you will definitely find worth watching. Go with your family for better experience.

    You Know

    Oh, what a cinematic masterpiece we have here! The story is an absolute gem, filled with groundbreaking, never-before-seen plot twists that will surely blow your mind... if you've been living under a rock for the past century. And who doesn't love those silly, forced elements that make you question your life choices?

    The narration, oh, the narration! It's a comedy goldmine that will have you in stitches from start to finish... or maybe not, because apparently, the jokes are so advanced that they're on a whole other level. We should all take a moment to appreciate Bala Krishna's valiant effort. His looks and acting are just okay, but let's not forget his courageous attempt at speaking in Telangana slang, which is obviously a linguistic masterpiece.

    And now, Kajal, the shining star of this film. Her impeccable acting skills and stunning looks are truly a sight to behold. I mean, who doesn't find her utterly irritating? It's almost like she's trying to be a comedian or something.

    Sri Leela, on the other hand, got a role that showcased her unparalleled talent in dancing but left a lot to be desired in the acting department. Who needs a good actor when you've got the moves, right?

    Let's not forget the music and cinematography, which are just the epitome of mediocrity. I mean, who needs memorable melodies or visually stunning scenes when you can settle for just "average"?

    Last but not least, the direction. It's so refreshingly routine that you'll be left wondering if you accidentally stumbled into the wrong theater and ended up watching a "How to Make a Generic Movie 101" tutorial instead. Bravo!
