Bellamkonda Sai Sreenivas debuted as an energetic young mass hero with ‘Alludu Seenu’ in VV Vinayak direction is here with second film ‘Speedunnodu’ released yesterday. The movie opened to divided verdict from audience on day one and the best point is Sai getting rave appreciations for the kind of development visible in him as an artist.
As per the early talk, ‘Speedunnodu’ is called as an unfaithful remake to Tamil ‘Sundara Pandiyan’ and the fault is entirely put on director Bheemaneni Srinivas Rao for mishandling a subject which had genuine soul. In order to establish Sai as a true mass hero, there is no necessity for his father Bellamkonda Suresh to aim on this kind of remake subjects. Tamil version had honesty in content narration and so was a perfect backdrop with strong selection of artists.
In that context, ‘Speedunnodu’ title is a misnomer and the choice of Bellamkonda Sai as central protagonist also misfired. Never late than ever, Sai can analyze his zones of strength and remain choosy in handpicking those scripts which suit his body language to core. One more mistake can prove to be a costly affair.
