'Padesave'rn comes with a tagline 'an Akkineni Nagarjuna encouragement'. Nagarjuna'srn participation in promotional campaign created curiosity among the rnaudience on this Youthful subject. Does 'Padesave' have necessary rningredients to set the cash registers ringing?
Synopsis:
Karthikrn (Satya Karthik) and Niharika (Nithya Shetty) are childhood friends. rnWhile Niharika loves Karthik, Karthik treats Niharika just as a dear rnFriend. At this juncture, Karthik meets Niharika's Friend Swathi (Zahidarn Saan) and falls in love with her. But, Swathi was already engaged to rnsomeone else by that time. How this triangular love story ends forms thern rest of the tale!
Performances:
Satyarn Karthik failed to impress and he needs to work a lot on his rnexpressions. None of the Two Heroines (Nithya Shetty, Zahida Saan) rnimpress with glamour but they did perform well. Nithya Shetty reminds usrn of Colors Swathi in a lot of ways. Zahida Saan steals the show in few rnscenes.
Comedy by Vishwa tickles the funny bone. Ali and rnKrishnudu were wasted. Naresh and Anitha Chowdary as Hero's Parents did rnjustice to their roles.
Pros:
Music
Comedy
Production Values
Cons:
Story
Screenplay
Direction
Technicalities:
Technicallyrn 'Padesave' is a decent fare. Music by Anup Rubens is the major asset. rnWhile Songs were pretty good, BGM is alright. Cinematography by Kanna isrn good. Production Values were rich. Dialogues by Kiran are adequate. rnChuniya who proved her mettle on small screen with 'Yuva' failed as a rnfeature film director. All she tried to do is rely heavily on so-so rncomedy, with little focus on story/screenplay.
Analysis:
Justrn because Nagarjuna promoted the movie aggressively doesn't mean rn'Padesave' is so special. This film reminds us of the fact that Nag rndelivered not only blockbusters like 'Soggade Chinni Nayana' but also rndisasters like 'Bhai'.
Triangular love stories like 'Padesave' rnweren't new in TFI. What makes it look worse is the poor screenplay. rnEarlier, Chuniya directed an impressive tele serial 'Yuva' which was rnaired on MAA TV. She, however, was unable to leave a mark of her own on arn larger platform. Routine Story, Predictable Screenplay & Lack of rnHilarious Comedy blocks worked against the movie.
Telugu Movie rnBuffs have seen 10s of such triangular love stories already. It really rnneeds no brilliance to guess whom Hero would marry in the climax. As a rnresult, Audience don't connect with the emotional drama in the latter rnhalf.
Good Music, Few Funny Sequences and Rich Production Valuesrn are the only positives of 'Padesave'. This love story have every chancern of sinking at the Box Office.
Bottom Line: Even Nag can't save it!
