Mahanati Movie Review: The Blast From The Past

Published On: 10 May 2018 | Tollywood | By: Kushi Kumar

Mahanati is given 9.5/10 by IMDb

Mahanati depicts the life and career of one of Telugu cinema's greatest and most iconic starlets, the first Indian female super star, SAVITRI. The film released on 9th May 2018, and is already a great hit. The director of the film Nag Ashwin, has done a commendable job on the movie. The story of ‘Mahanati’ ( probably south indian film industry’s most revered female figure ) is a once in a life time epic film. The word feisty wouldn’t be enough to describe ‘Savitri’. She embraced the wonderful moments life presented to her. She lived her life on her own terms. Her life story was nothing short of a roller coaster ride. The director doesn’t shy away from showing the complexities in her life, steady beginning of her career, the unmatched rise in the same and the romance in her life. The story shows the fragility of money, fame and star power. Talented actress Keerthy Suresh reprises the role of the great actress Savitri. The film also has a huge list of stars playing crucial roles. The cast of the film includes - Keerthy Suresh, Dulquer Salmaan, Samantha Akkineni and Vijay Deverakonda. Here are some tweets about the film -

1st half is excellent #Mahanati. performances are the best , technically the film is solid the DOP and the art director Avinash successfully recreated the 60’s & 50’s. BGM by Micky is excellent

Just watched #Mahanati and I am totally mesmerized by it. Make time to watch it. @KeerthyOfficial you as the great Mahanati have done absolute justice. @TheDeverakonda is there anything that you cannot do. @Samanthaprabhu2 your role was subtle but had the maximum impact.

We will remember savitri as long Telugu cinema lives and #Mahanati will be remembered as savitri is remembered. In other words it’s immortal. Only when all forms of arts come together in perfection a classic like this can be made.
