Critic Review
Ntr Mahanayakudu (2019) When NT Rama Rao (Nandamuri Balakrishna) establishes the Telugu Desam Party in 1982, he becomes an instant mass leader in politics.  Touring the then united State of Andhra Pradesh on his Chaitanya Ratham, he rallies the people on the slogans of Telugu pride and social justice. Troubles begin more than a year after the thespian-turned-politician becomes the Chief Minister.  Nadendla Bhaskara Rao (Sachin Khedekar) stages a coup when NTR is away in the US for an angiogram.  Upon his return, the cheated Rama Rao roars.  Rest, as they say, is history. The second half of the film is about how NTR regained power with the help of Chandrababu Naidu's (Rana Daggubati) deft political management and maneuvering. .

In the end, “Mayanayakudu” becomes both as CBN’s NTR as well as Basavatarakam’s NTR (since the movie begins with Basavatarakam and ends with her death) and glorifies him to the hilt. The film also becomes an exercise to showcase Chandrababu Nai.

‘NTR Mahanayakudu’ focusses on the eventful political life of NT Rama Rao before 1985. Despite crisp runtime which is just over 2 hours and Balakrishna sticking to one getup (aged NTR), the film is filled with few exciting moments. It is a document of.

The political scene abruptly cuts to the family scene towards the end as the director is instructed not to go beyond that point. So, the viewers will be left underwhelmed by the time titles roll on. There is no proper ending to the celebrated actor and le.

NTR Mahanayakudu is a decent political drama. Except highlighting Chandrababu Naidu as rescuer of TDP at that time , most of the scenes are true from history. And for people who have followed NTR’s mentoric rise in politics – NTR is an emotion. Probab.

NTR Mahanayakudu as the title already suggests is about the Political Life of the Legendary Actor. This film limits itself to the Early Episodes tracking outside rebellion, portraying Chandra Babu Naidu in a positive and guiding light. It will be very app.

As a political thriller, the film should have been far more imaginative and edge-of-the-seat. With no topicality, 'NTR: Mahanayakudu' has its disadvantages. Able performances and BGM are a blessing. The dialogues could have been better. There should ha.

On the whole, NTR Mahanayakudu showcases NTR, the legendary politician, to the current generation. Balakrishna’s splendid performance as NT Rama Rao and Krish’s deft handling of the political events that rattled Andhra Pradesh in the late 80s are the .

All in all, NTR Mahanayakudu did not completely portray the heroics of NTR in politics. At the same time, this is an incomplete biopic which ended with Basavatarakam's death but not of NTR. Rather than highlighting NTR’s character, Krish elevated CBN ap.

The first half of the movie is interesting in its own way as the political drama raises curiosity among the audiences but the second half of the movie is a big letdown. There is hardly any proper story in the second half and it all looks hurried. The seco.
