sreyassudarsan Bestest and favorite movie of Mahesh...Acting , bgm, action was brilliant....Overall an epic masterpiece of TFI

vadapallisushma Sukumar is very wise. His ideals are quite different from others. How different it means is ….. the movie will be confused, if he makes the movie in a different mood. Should run along with him and should think alike him. The movies Arya, Jagadam, Arya 2, 100% Love…. are all in the same way. Sukumar made a habit of thinking in a different manner, very far from the general audience. That's his Positive aspect. But now that positive aspect proved to be Negative, with his latest movie "1". Frankly, the movie is very new and looks to be different.The Telugu audience has never seen such a different story previously and even Mahesh has never performed such a role earlier. But audience should be able to understand this new aspect. If it is like a sort of enigma, the movie tells us about the result. The Story is ………Gautam (Mahesh Babu), a rock star. He rocks the audience with the musical world of his songs. He has some flash-back. Unfortunately, he doesn't know the past. But haunted. He makes illusion that someone is going to kill him. In that aspect, he kills someone and surrenders himself. But the strange thing is that what he thinks he had killed someone is also an illusion.Doctors confirm that he has some mental illness. In this confusion, he leaves for Goa. There he comes across his illusion ed chasing man(KELLYDORGE). Sameera (Kruti Sanan) who is a reporter follows Gautam. She tries to know about Gautam's past. In Goa also, attacks take place on Gautam. There he understands, who are attacking him and why they are attacking him. Gautamki has a flash back. Someone killed her father. Now , they are trying to kill him. Gautam , now has two main issues. Who are his parents? Who killed them? How he came to know about these things? Who said about that? All these should be watched on the silver screen.There is a lot of confusion in the story. You may not hold all of them immediately. So, we explained the story in this simple manner. This is a psychological thriller. Its an another angle of the Surya's movie Ghajini. Ghajini forgets once for every 15 minutes. Here Gautam, feels the reality as an illusion and illusion as a reality. The story runs on this theme. There are a lot of riddles in this story, which really confused the audience. In comparison to first half, second half is more confusing.It seems that Sukumar might have left his hold on the steering, in the confusion of driving the story. With this, the confusion still increased a lot. It is very funny, to see that nobody comes to the rescue , if a rock star runs and kills someone on the London roads. In a movie , we should not earn such logic, but for a intellectual like Sukumar, how it is possible to make a movie without such simple logic. The climax drama of the film,that took place between Nasser and Mahesh is still ridiculous. But, after all the Movie is about Mahesh, so anyway, audience will sit in the Theatre to see his Handsome face.This is really the Director's inefficiency. He is unable to understand how to utilize a Star like Mahesh. He should make movies with brilliance.But ,if a movie is made with so much brilliance, then it becomes a Kangali. As it is felt that the movie brings Sankranthi, two days before, now its great if it stays till Sankranthi.

sunilgandhavarupu He is a rock star and a troubled one at that. Amidst performing to a roaring audience, he senses the presence of one of his parents' killers gunning for his life, chases him down, finishes him off and surrenders to the police. The world around him is stunned to discover the hitherto unknown facet of the rock star. Meanwhile, a video footage shot by a television reporter reveals the truth — the rock star was fighting an imaginary opponent. It appears that he suffers from a psychological condition termed Interpretation Disorder, which blurs his capability of differentiating reality and imagination.Director Sukumar's 1 is not a film one can watch passively. Soon after the fantastically picturesque opening song 'Who are you?', he draws you into the thriller mode only to tell you it's not going to be a linear story. How often do we get to watch a Telugu film where the audience, along with the protagonist and supporting characters, is also required to think and distinguish between events unfolding in real and imaginary spaces? The television reporter Sameera (debutante Kriti Sanon) sniffs a TRP-friendly story and trails Gautam (a leaner, fitter Mahesh Babu) as he retreats to a luxury cocoon in Goa.Rathnavelu's roving camera rarely comes to a halt, just like its protagonist, searching for answers across surreal, low-lit streets, exotic beaches, and the cold, Grey streets of London. Gautam, meanwhile, is at the risk of injuring himself and anyone around him as his mind refuses to stop playing tricks on him.Habitual to watching films that begin with a great premise only to fall into the commercial trap of force-fit comic situations, it comes as a relief when Sukumar laces the psychological thriller with subtle wit that never takes the focus away from the plot. A few eye- popping sequences raise the bar for action in Telugu cinema, with well-choreographed stunts helped by good cinematography, editing, visual effects and background score. But once the dots begin to connect and a few plot points become easier to guess, the drama tends to drag and one wonders if the conflict between what's real and imaginary has been stretched too far. With a run time of a little less than three hours, the film can test a viewer's patience.This isn't your regular mas ala cinema and may not be everyone's cup of tea. If you're willing to invest some patience and soak in the mood of a film that attempts to appeal to an audience that's used to watching global cinema, 1 will not disappoint. In this visually stunning film, Mahesh Babu delivers his career-best performance. His son Gautam makes a debut through a cameo and appears at ease in front of the camera. As a surprise there's Devi Sri Prasad's background score that's so different from his regular fare. He's been given the chance to push the envelope and boy, he does it so well.

swethanarigani Gautam (Mahesh Babu) is a rock star. He is alone and his parents are killed when he was a kid. He wants to take revenge on the killers of his parents. But, he has a psychological problem. The rest of the story is all about how he overcomes the psychological problem, how he finds out who his parents' killers are and how he gets to know more about his parents..My respect for Mahesh Babu has increased multi fold after watching this movie. His decision to accept a thriller, that's too with psychological issues is a daring one. This film and his character in this movie will remain as one of his best accomplishments in his career. There is lot of underplaying in his characterization and it's multi-layered. He is simply superb. On the commercial front, his work in interval episode and the shadow step he has done in 'You Are My Love' are of top- notch. The final conversation with the main villain and his dialogue to the kid at graveyard is excellent.Mahesh Babu's son Gowtam made his debut as childhood Mahesh. He is another superstar in making. Ease in acting and lovable looks! Kriti Sanon is pretty good and suited the height of Mahesh Babu. Kelly Dorji, Pradeep Rawat and Nassar played important roles. Posani Krishna Murali's role is the only character in this film where the director tried providing regular entertainment. Naveen Polisetty did a vital role. Sophie Choudry has done the item song in this movie.The story of the film looks very simple. But the screenplay is highly complex. There are various layers like revenge, a psychological disorder, eagerness to know about roots and corporate greed. There are a few amazing screenplay tricks in the movie. Director Sukumar added 20% more commercial appeal to what needed for a psychological thriller, but stayed with the theme of the film most of the times. The length of the film should have been taken care of and the screenplay should have been crisp and racy. There are certain issues with the film - heroine interaction in Goa episodes appear repetitive and there is no scope for songs in this kind of thriller. Sukumar has followed Hollywood style and orientation by narrating the film in a classy way. We do expect the death of villain as the final frame of a typical Telugu movie. But there is a lot to the story after the villain's death. I loved the way he connected the titles episode of the film to the climax and how parents faces are revealed. There is lot of detailing in the film and some people might need a second viewing to understand the nuances and innuendos in the movie.Cinematography by Ratnavelu is the best. Songs scored by Devi Sri Prasad are not as exciting, but the background music is terrific. Dialogues are very good. There are few entertaining ones like Locations are wonderful. This film is extensively shot in picturesque locations of Hyderabad, Goa, Thailand, London and Belfast. Action sequences by Peter Hein are well-conceived though you can see inspirations for a couple of sequences (1st action episode and car blast in tunnel (Italian Job - black & white)). Editing should have been better. The runtime should be crisp. The producers of Dookudu should be appreciated for their guts in selecting this genre and spending such a huge budget on this subject.First things first. 1 Nenokkadine is not an universal film like Dookudu. It belongs to psychological thriller genre. Thriller and psychological are two rare genres that are least attempted in Telugu film industry. It's also a multi-layered movie. Plus points of film are Mahesh Babu, screenplay, cinematography, production values and technical values. On the flip side, the sluggish narration and excessive runtime hampers the tempo. When three big names - Mahesh Babu, Sukumar and 14 Reels are involved in making such a high- budgeted film, there are bound to be a lot of expectations. 1 Nenokkadine is not a commercial potboiler. Film lovers who have exposure to Hollywood films and world cinema will appreciate this movie. 1 Nenokkadine is a film that makes Mahesh, Sukumar, producers and entire unit proud. We need to wait and see how a common movie lover who is used to formulaic films lap it up.
