Bheemasena Nalamaharaja

Bheemasena Nalamaharaja is a simple story written by Suni and Karthik that reminds you of a well-made dish, perfect for the palate. It has all the basic rasas and is equal parts sweet, sour and bitter, with just a hint of spice. Each character has been created with finesse and the performances reflect this too. Aravinnd has practically lived his character of the chef. Arohi Narayan as Vedavalli and Priyanka Thimmesh as Sarah balance out Aravinnd’s character and Achyuth Kumar delivers a versatile performance. Vijay Chendoor, known for his usual comedy outings, has been cast in a slightly different role this time around. A special mention also goes to child artistes, Chitrali and Aadya. However, like any popular dish, this one too has a few shortcomings — it is slow-paced and some sequences are unnecessary. If they are cut out from the final product, the result would be a perfectly balanced dish. Two thing you must not miss Bheemasena Nalamaharaja for though are the absolutely delightful Charanraj's background score and Ravindranath's cinematography.
