CJ Raam Mano

Kalyan Ram is known for his quest and thirst to do different roles on screen and prove himself as a complete actor. With Bimbisara, he proved that given a challenging role, he can come out with flying colors. He took his acting to new heights with his performance and mannerisms as Bimbisara. A little bit of fine-tuning would have done him a world of good. Vassishta did good research on the story and history of the Bimbisara king and he smartly included the character of Devdatta, Bimbisara's brother. It is true that he had a brother named Devdatta and he was backstabbed in real life. The way Vassishta connected the dots of the past and the present with the time travel through a mirror and the small girl is commendable. He added the right doses of action, humor, and romance to thrill viewers. The story and screenplay and narration are good. More elevation of the hero and villain characters and tightening of the script could have powered Bimbisara to another level. Considering all these elements, CJ goes with a 2.75 rating for Bimbisara.

Director Rajasekhar Reddy turned Macherla Niyojaka Vargam with Nithin into a clumsy affair. With the story itself turning outdated, no amount of effort from Nithin saved the film. Nithin put in everything sincerely and did everything that is in his hands, but Rajasekhar Reddy turned out to be the culprit with no novelty and creativity. Considering all these elements, Cinejosh goes with a 1.75 rating for Macherla Niyojaka Vargam.
