Will 'Badrinath' Be Another 'Shakti'?

With the much hyped ‘Shakti’ turning out to be a colossal disaster, the summer opening has not been that pleasant. However, few Tollywood members are now pinning their hopes on the other magnum opus ‘Badrinath’. While it is natural to be positive about a film, what is the ground reality picture of the film?

‘Shakti’ came with big budget and had an even bigger doom. And considering the budget of ‘Badrinath’, some are asking will this also meet the same fate? A noted analyst said “On the bright side, the first look posters of the film show Allu Arjun aptly as a warrior with his six pack and muscles unlike Junior NTR who looked like he was taking part in a fancy dress competition.”

He added “On the flip side, there is talk that few scenes have been rehashed from the Bollywood film ‘Veer’. Also, it remains to be seen how much the Telugu audience will be convinced by the rather unrealistic concept of an Indian Samurai. Finally, director Vinayak has been claiming that this is not a period film and a pure commercial entertainer so it will be a challenge for him to strike a balance since the first look is giving a completely different impression about the genre of the film.” 

Well…that’s the situation with ‘Badrinath’ folks…
