Story:
Gautham (Sharwanand) is an architect who falls in love with Nithya (Sakshi Vaidya). They also receive approval from Nithya's father, although he is unsure about how serious their relationship is.
Just when everything seems to be going well, it turns out that Gautham was in love with Dia (Samyukta Menon) during his college days and even married her. However, they later divorced. Why did Gautham move away from Dia? What happens if she comes back into his life? The rest of the film answers these questions.
performances:
Sharwanand fits the role perfectly and delivers the comedy very well. It also brings the necessary emotional depth to the climax. Sakshi Vaidya and Samyukta perform well as the female leads and deliver decent performances.
Naresh provides a lot of laughs in the role of the hero's father. Sampath Raj is well cast as the heroine's father. Vennela Kishore, Sunil, Satya and Sudarshan also deliver convincing performances.
analysis:
Director Ram Abbaraju, who impressed with his debut “Samajavaragamana”, takes up a well-known storyline in “Nari Nari Naduma Murari”. But he keeps the characters and narrative engaging for most of the film. Each character has a clear identity and contributes to non-stop entertainment.
The first half starts on a simple note but becomes more exciting as time goes on. The flashback part and the episodes leading up to the break are well handled. Several scenes surrounding Naresh's second marriage are hilarious, especially the one where he humorously explains why “pelli” means “marriage” in English and jokes that it can happen at any age and at any stage of life.
The second half focuses on the main conflict, in which the hero hides an important truth from his fiancée. The resulting chaos and comedy is fun. While some scenes are repetitive and an unnecessary song before the climax slows the pace, the director makes up for it with a proper justification for the backstory and an entertaining ending to an emotional climax.
Positive:
- Casting/Appearances
- 30 minutes before break
- Hilarious scenes in the second half
Negatives:
- Usual feeling during the starting scenes
- Repeated/stretched moments in some places
Nari Nari Naduma Murari Review and Verdict:
Ram Abbaraju's Nari Nari Naduma Murari remains entertaining throughout. Despite some drawn out moments, the film succeeds with its balanced mix of humor and emotion, supported by convincing performances.
