As enlightened Telugu audience outcry on scarcity of good stories to match the star power of our heroes, our writers are also following the same approach of filling old wine in new bottle. Recycling the same old stories with necessary amendments made to fulfill the mass or class image requirements of heroes, there is a definite lack of innovative sense in our present day movies.
Nevertheless, the mindset of common patrons is also affected a lot and a section of us are enjoying the mere presence of heroes on screen without worried much on script, story etc. A recent finding on heroes becoming saviors for remote villages combating with antagonists in same village is the old concept got in new demand. To our knowledge Mahesh Babu attempted this storyline in ‘Khaleja,’ a declared disaster for different reasons.
If Telugu viewers are accustomed to commercial ingredients, Koratala Siva revamped basic ‘Khaleja’ line in a new touch much more mesmerizing than that of Trivikram Srinivas bought as ‘Srimanthudu.’ Before we understood a fact of Mahesh Babu succeeding with savior concept in second trial, Raviteja also rushed in as ‘Kick 2’ pivoting on the same line with a different treatment. Irrespective of ‘Kick 2’ Box Office verdict, Mass Maharaja should make a second try like Mahesh Babu in order to achieve a bigger success than ‘Kick 2.’
