Review

Shiva Koratala despite the fact that he has only four films under his belt, he has carved out a niche for himself as a filmmaker. Acharya, on the other hand, had a major weakness: the screenplay. Acharya’s story is as ancient as the hills, and the screenplay has to be updated. The movie lacks high spots that may have enhanced the proceedings.As the plot progresses, Chiranjeevi has a mediocre introduction, and everything goes to toss. Only a few instances in the movie made the audience sit up and applaud for our heroes. We can count the scenes that made people scream wow, whether it was the Banjara song in the second half or Ram Charan’s introductory scene. The rest of the tale is monotonous and has nothing interesting to offer. In Acharya, Chiranjeevi plays a passive-aggressive persona. The intensity is present, but the energy is lacking. Where it relates to a routine and predictable narrative, and has almost no impression. Chiranjeevi seemed to be rushing from one action block to the next, with nothing fascinating or entertaining to do in between. A mediocre first half features an understated Chiranjeevi, no depth in writing, a typical premise, and formulaic

construction. Throughout, one’s patience is put to the test. The important connecting points between action sequences are utterly overlooked, and as a result, one is never invested in the proceedings, despite the fact that the action sequences are outstanding. With the idea that Ram Charan will be there in the second half, there is some momentum and a boost in hope coming into the interval. In the second half, one sincerely hopes for a revival of enthusiasm and intensity. However, the second half continues to go downhill. There isn’t much to remember, either in terms of writing or performance. More challenges have been thrown our way, as the hero is battling them while spreading the concept of ‘Dharma.’ Ram Charan shows up in the second half and it’s not a bad performance; rather, it’s a completely ordinary act. The difference between his recent performances and Acharya can be seen and felt. Chiranjeevi’s charisma and energy infused his character Acharya with life. Similarly, Ram Charan’s performance as Siddha is a pleasure to watch. Their combo scenes were entertaining to watch, particularly the moment in which they make fun of the villains while slaying them. However, Chiranjeevi and Ram Charan can only do so much to save the scenario.

Pooja Hegde’s performance as Neelambari was a breath of fresh air, and her chemistry with Ram Charan is decent and watchable. Sonu Sood, Jisshu Sengupta, Tanikella Bharani, and the rest of the supporting cast all did a good job. Thiru’s cinematography is superb, capturing the rich lush greenery and forest settings. The dark hues of the colours add a unique texture to the proceedings. The editing by Navin Nooli is decent. The VFX work is terrible, and the proceedings have a tacky feel to them at times. There has been a lot remarked about the artwork, but there isn’t much of a feeling of a real village. The songs by Mani Sharma were lively, but the background music did not add to any of the scenes. Acharya had the potential to be a full-fledged masala blockbuster. However, the lack of creativity proved to be a major disappointment.Koratala fails to make the most of the talent at his disposal, giving them a lifeless, dull, and tiresome formulaic action drama.
