Aa Okkati Adakku is one of the upcoming movies in Telugu, starring Allari Naresh in the lead role. The film unit is busy with the promotions currently. However, soon after the release of theatrical trailer, the movie is generating a negative buzz in the movie industry. There’s a talk that the new movie is tarnishing the image of the old classic.
Released in 1992 and directed by EVV Satyanarayana, Aa Okkati Adakku had Rajendra Prasad in the lead role. The film is a big hit at the box office.
According to the old movie, it tells the story of Chitti, who is a freeloader, relying on astrology to change his luck. He falls in love with a rich woman but has to change his lazy ways to fulfil a condition her father puts forth. The entire scenario has been depicted in a hilarious manner.
Cut to the present, the latest movie is also a billed to be a comedy drama. Since the film is coming from the legendary EVV’s son Allari Naresh, the expectations are naturally high around the movie. The common expectation is that the movie will entertain the audiences with heavy dose of comedy.
Also, Allari Naresh is doing a comic role after a long time, cut away from the serious characters. But the story they chose is too routine. The makers picked marriage as a backdrop and the trailer has been depicted in a manner but it did not evoke proper laughs.
At the same time, the movie has the hero as the central element unlike the old movie where every character has a lot of significance. The latest movie does not tick all the boxes that would need to live up to the legacy of old classic.
All in all, the inside news is that Allari Naresh is set to spoil the old classic filn title with a mediocre subject. We have to see, to what extent does this hold truth.
