Mahanati is the first ever south Indian biopic on the life of veteran actress Savitri. It is directed by Nag Ashwin.
Set in four decades from 50’s to 80’s, the movie throws light on some important events of her life both as a superstar and a person. The film brings out certain interesting and lesser-known aspects of her life.
Keerthy Suresh has played the titular role in Mahanati and she has done justice to it.
Her performance is the highlight of the movie. Dulquer Salmaan, Samantha Akkineni and Vijay Devarakonda, who have played important roles and done justice. Mohan Babu and host of other actors’ cameo roles are also among the big attractions of the movie.
The first half of the movie is engaging and entertaining interestingly woven between Savitri’s reel and real life. Subtle comedy, well written dialogues. lively moments with young bubbly Savitri keep you engrossed with the movie.
Background Music by Micky is excellent it’s filled with some iconic scenes of Savitri amma and basically it is a love story.
The director has done well with this movie and it is a different kind of story narration. You can watch it.
