Ontari Movie Review

Story:
The story runs in two parallel threads moving back &forth to flaskback and present
Flashback mode..
Vamsi(Gopichand)is the younger son of Mudhukrishna rao(Paruchuri Venkateswara rao)and he is a happy go lucky guy.He has two close friends Subbu(Sunil)and MLA Raghava(Rajeev Kanakala).One fine day Vamsi comes across a beautiful,innocent&too good girl Bujji(Bhavana)and falls in love with her at the first sight.He dupes her as a CBI officer and meets her daily in the name of interrogation.
Present mode..
Vamsi's family is hiding in a remote village on the bank of Godavari and Vamsi seeks revenge on Lal Mahankali(Asish Vidyardhi)and his gang.Vamsi also kills his own friend MLA Raghava(now minister Raghava) brutally on a road.Why this lover boy turned into a serial killer forms the rest of the story.

Highlights:
Gopichand rocks as a lover boy turned avenger.Gopichand carries the entire film on his shoulders with his superb performance.
Heroine character is very good.Bhavana looks cute and performed well.
First half especially the love story is very interesting.
Cinematography(Sarvesh Murari) is good.Music (Manisarma)is Ok.
Dialogues(Marudhuri Raja,Bhasha sri)are good at parts(comic oneliners)
This is a pakka commercial film from the Eetaram films sans any social message and this is a much better film from director Ramana compared to his earlier films.

Sidelights:
The movie moves back and forth too many times.
First half is good as a perfect package of entertainment,love&action with enough suspense but the Second half is not upto the mark though it is fine in the climax.
Schizophrenic behavior of hero talking to the illusionistic charecter of heroine till the end may irk some sections of the audience and also they might be disappointed for the unhappy ending.

Public Talk: bane undhi.watch it for Gopichand
Industry Talk: Commercially successful movie.If the second half goes well with the masses it will reach the range of Lakshyam.
