Hello friends, Telugu and Tamil cinema are completely filled with those types of movies where the hero is rebellious and stubborn, who did nothing to financially support his family, but one day he falls in love with a young and beautiful girl, and due to touching in with her, he becomes more responsible and respectful in the society. If you think that Bachchala Malli is this type of movie, you are wrong, because the Bachchala Malli movie is the perfect combination of love, rebellion, and comedy.
Back to the topic, the first half is running in interesting ways and is well designed only for those audiences who love comedy and a little bit of action with a rebel taste, while the second half falls in the slow pace category where action and suspense lead the movie instead of comedy.
After playing Kishtayya's younger brother role in Naa Saami Ranga, directed by Vijay Binni,
once again Allari Naresh appears on the silver screen. This time he is the lead role and playing the character Malli, a short-tempered, rugged, and formidable man who remains indifferent to everyone in his village. Even his mother fears him and refrains from questioning him. Back to cast performance, the first half of Allari Naresh's personality matched with the wanted movie, Salman Khan, who beats goons with thinking, while the second half, his character, the backbone of the movie, faded due to unwanted mixed masala.
Amritha Aiyer is convincing as Kaveri and fits well into her role. Rao Ramesh’s character starts off understated but gains prominence in the second half, adding weight to the narrative.
Minus Points (-)
I personally like the first half of this movie because everything is available in this first half that the audience wants, like comedy, action, and romance, but the second half does not live up to audience expectations. There are many reasons, but most of them are due to the slow pace and unwanted scenes. If the makers chopped up a few scenes, especially from the second half, it would be best for the movie.
No doubt Vishal Chandrasekhar’s music and background score are noteworthy, complementing the film’s tone. Richard M. Nathan’s cinematography captures the village’s essence beautifully. However, the editing, particularly in the second half, could have been sharper.
