Performances
Rajendra Prasad is shown in a completely new look for this film. He dishes out a knockout performance and does so well. The manner in which he showcased emotions in a strong way is also impressive. Credit should go to director Pawan Sadineni for extracting such a performance from him. Naresh Agastya, who played the young cop has also done well in his crucial role.
Analysis
Senapathi is a crime thriller and director Pawan has made sure that he does not add any masala to it. He is to the point and makes sure the film has good intense moments.
Actor Rakendu Mouli, Harshavardhan, and ‘Josh’ Ravi, who also wrote catchy lyrics for the film, are well-suited for the roles. He tried to show through this movie that every man has a shade of gray and it is impossible to say when and how it will come out.
Rajendra Prasad’s character proves that even people who believe in the system have no choice but to rebel against it at some point. The film has a slow pace but there is enough meat for us to savor it. Induvadana is a well-made film with good thrills. Takes time to grow on you but it is a gripping watch.
Bottom Line – Gripping drama
