The relaunch of Balaiah 101 Paisa Vasool is one film which is being eagerly awaited all over as it marks the collaboration of Puri Jagan and Balayya for the very first time.
Bob Marley(Vikramajeet) is an Indian don who has now settled down in Europe. The entire police force is after him but no one manages to even get a clue about his deeds.
Left with no choice, the cops decide to deal the case with the help of a dangerous gangster called Teda Singh(Balakrishna).
They approach Teda Singh and he too happily agrees to do the task. But the cops get a shock of their lives when they come to know that Teda Singh already has a connection with Bob Marley.
After a long gap, you get to see him in a mass avatar and his fans will surely love Teda Singh’s character. Puri has managed to design Balayya’s role typically for fans as the star hero mouths Puri style trade mark dialogues and punch lines which are quite superb.
Balayya’s fights have been designed quite well and have some humor attached to it. The main villain, Vikramjeet has done a good job as the dreaded don.
Shreya Saran looks young and has maintained herself quite well even in this age. Her chemistry with Balayya is quite interesting.
The first half has Balayya’s mass show in full form where as the second half gets a bit serious with some emotions. All the songs sound good and have also been shot quite nicely.
Paisa Vasool looks quite rich in terms of scale. The entire second half is set in Europe and it looks quite grand.
Puri Jagan, has played a safe game with Balayya. He has rehashed all his previous films and made a story out of it.
Paisa Vasool is clearly made to please Balayya’s fans. They will just love him in a massy avatar after a very long time. Balayya’s punch dialogues, comedy generated and stylish fights are basic assets.
