Shekhar Kammula is back after a long back with a youthful romantic entertainer called Fidaa.Producer Dil Raju took right decision by not tinkering with the movie.
Varun(Varun Tej) comes down to India to get his brother married. There, he falls in love with Bhanumati(Sai Pallavi). As time passes by, love blossoms between the couple but they both do not disclose their love for each other. After going back to the US, Varun finally comes forward and proposes to Bhanu who in turn reject’s Varun’s proposal.
Why did Bhanu reject Varun’s proposal? Varun Tej looks super dashing in the film. Even though his role will look as if the heroine dominates him but Varun’s calmness and the ease with his emotions make the film quite heart warming. This is the kind of film that an actor of his age should be doing and Varun is bang on this time.
Sai Pallavi is mind blowing in the film. Right from the first frame, she mesmerizes you completely. Her Telangana accent and the way she carries the emotional scenes, she is a show stealer. Post-Fidaa, Sai Pallavi will be an even bigger rage all over.
The actress who plays Sai Pallavi’s sister is too good in her role and brings good depth to the film. Veteran actor Sai Chand is a quite memorable and gives an honest performance. Satyam Rajesh evokes good laughs.
Dil Raju should be commended for shooting this film in a superb note. The Telangana culture is showcased in a stunning away and the realistic nature of the characters from the region have been shown well. Music by Shaktikanth is a major asset for the film. All the songs are set perfectly into the narration.
Director Shekhar Kammula, he makes a comeback with a bang. The way he sets a simple story and narrates it with some good entertainment will be loved by the family audience big time.
Fidaa is one of the best love stories made in the recent times. The film has superb fun, good romance and moreover some moving emotions which will be loved by the the audience.
Once again thanks to Dil Raju for not interfering with the creativity of Kammula.
