Background:

Shirdi Sai, the third devotional venture from Nagarjuna and Raghavender Rao stable has received a clean U from the censor board. The certification formalities were completed today and the movie is now all set for a worldwide release on September 6th. The movie has been directed by veteran director Raghavendra Rao.

‘Shirdi Sai’ reportedly deals with the early life of Sai and his philosophy. Srikanth, Sri Hari, Sarath Babu and other senior actors are playing lead roles. Keeravani has composed the music and A. Mahesh Reddy is the producer.

Synopsis:

After Annamayya and Srirama Dasu, ‘King’ Nagarjuna is back with another devotional film Shiridi Sai. The movie review is one of the much awaited ones as the film has created quite a buzz ever since director K Raghavendra Rao announced it. So let’s catch up with the Shirdi Sai Telugu movie review highlights to find out whether Nag was able to pull off yet another devotional hit.

Performance:

The title credits with devotional paintings and visuals set the mood for the film.

Nagarjuna’s entry as Baba, set to the tune of a song on the oneness of God – “Okkade Devudu” was nicely shot

Nagarjuna plays the part of Shiridi Sai so perfectly that one gets the feeling that no one else could pull this role off. He is the only actor among his contemporaries for playing roles like Annamayya, Sri Ramadasu and Shirdi Sai

The actor is a revelation in this role that calls for intricate nuances and skill. He has put in a lot of hard work both in terms of looks as well as body language. The triumph of this role lies in the fact that Nags got the subtleties right. An award might just be around the corner.

Nagarjuna proves that he is a true Shirdi Sai with his portrayal of the role. His radiant eyes, subtle expressions, the pain and joy in his actions prove that Nagarjuna lives the role and has poured oodles of devotion into the whole act.

Srikanth was apt in his role as Dasaganu. Srihari as Wales and Brahmanandam as Sandeham also fit the bill.

Technicalities:

Moving dialogues like “Manishi Sukhamga undedhi maraninchaake” touches the audiences.

Keeravani’s music and background score are brilliant. He has put in his best for this devotional movie and has elevated several scenes with his impeccable tunes. His music is the soul of the film and this is one of his best musical scores in the recent past. His own devotion to his art reflects in every song.

The production values are very rich, thanks to Mahesh Reddy and Shri Girish Reddy

Final Word:

Raghavendra Rao has provided a great canvas for actor Nagarjuna and music director Keeravani, who have given much colour to the director’s vivid imagination.

In a scenario, where commercial films are being made dime a dozen, a film like Shirdi Sai calls for strong conviction and Nagarjuna’s move to take up this film is commendable.
