Maryada Ramanna Movie Review

The Film

Maryada Ramanna is a wonderfully crafted comedy based on the inherent conflict of hospitality versus vengeance, that too in the backdrop of the vexatious factionism.

The Synopsis

Ramu (Sunil) is a simple person and has no knowledge of the past of his family. He encounters Aparna (Saloni Aswani) on a train journey. Ramu goes to a village and stays in the house of Ramineedu (Nagineedu). He gets the traditional hospitality from the household of Ramineedu.

Will Ramineedu kill Ramu? What is the role of Aparna to save Ramu? Then there is the cycle with the voice over of Ravi Teja; what is the typical role of the cycle? Answers to these questions conclude this hilarious film.

The Performances

Sunil, with an author backed role, excels in his performance. His comic timing even while enacting a serious episode reveals his maturity as a complete actor. Saloni Aswani is quite glamorous and has inherent potential as an actress. Nagineedu is impressive. Brahmanandam tickles your funny bone. Rao Ramesh and Brahmaji are good. All others fit their roles and add to the totality of charecter competence.
