Don Seenu Review

After watching KICK nearly a week back i was eager to watch his movie after i came to know that it was being produced by the same producer. Nearly 6 days back on msnindia website got to see the first images of the movie. Today morning while passing by the theatre realised that the movie got released. So the movie freak always thirst and never sleeping devil inside me woke up. I went to office but it was back of my mind that i must watch the movie today. I left office at 6:30 PM and went directly to hall to buy a ticket saw the long queue and lost any hope of getting a ticket. I decided to go back to room check out online if i could get a ticket but what a fate i have power went off. I quickly changed and rushed back to the theatre and i was luck got the First Call ticket.
Now about the movie. DON Seenu.. Someone said whats there in the name. But this movie is all about name and the name is in the title itself its DON.
Let me start by telling about the our hero. Ravi Teja plays the role of Don Seenu. Long back in 2006 a movie in Tamil was made in which Suriya played the role of a fan of Thalaivar Super Star Rajnikant. And for the first time in Tollywood we have a character who imitates and try to live the life of a famous actor on screen. When Ravi Teja's IDIOT got released i always felt he imitated Big B a lot. His dialogues, his body language, his style resembled a lot with Big B. Don Seenu is just the true reflect of the same. In this movie Ravi Teja is a big fan of Big B and in the first shot we can see the kid watching 1978 DON movie. He get tattooed his name DON SEENU on his arm like "Meera Baap Chor hai" style. These small trivial things send you on a laughter ride all through out the movie. In few instances Don Seenu blabbers the lines of Big B's hit movie but he doesn't understand the dialogue meaning but he still uses them. Ravi Teja has once again delivered an action packed mass masala movie. He truly did what he is best at acting for the crowd. I had tough time to catch up dialogues because the crowd was a pakka mass crowd whistling every time Ravi Teja is on screen and the sound quality in the theatre was pathetic.
About the heroine Shriya. Frankly speaking i was disappointed. After giving some good performances in Santosham and Tagore she vanished from the Tollywood industry for five years. And this movie was her comeback movie. In my opinion she looked pathetic. In all the scenes she had too much make-up and her idea of wearing skimpy to appeal the crowd was the most useless trick. Her role in the movie doesn't worth mentioning much. Over all i will rate her character as 1.5 or 2 on a scale of 10.
Now coming to the other roles. You have a whole set of comedians starting from Ali to Brahmananda the whole gang of Kick movie are present in this movie also. They keep entertaining you without making you feel that you are off the track. You also have few other role played by SriHari, Manoj Manjrekar, Sayaji Shinde and Katuri ( the lady of Annamayya) makes a comeback.
Music was bad nothing much to hum after watching the movie. But the background score was nice imitating some of the Old Big B movie songs and james bond background. It was entertaining.
Finally i will say watch this movie if you want to have a good nice laugh and if you want to see how it would be if someone start imitate big actors on screen. And a must watch movie if you a fan of Ravi Teja an his full blown one man show kind of movie. In every frame and scene you will find on Don Seenu and the story behind Don Seenu making.
Have fun.. Enjoy and i am sure you will have a nice good time...
DON DON DON...
