Gandeevadhari Arjuna Movie Analysis: 

‘Gandeevadhari Arjuna’ has a Telugu sound in its name. There is no Telugu language in the places where the story takes place. Most of the story takes place in London, Dehradun, and Delhi. Some were shown to have happened in Lambasinghi. However, the story has the emotions that the Telugu audience needs.

Written by Praveen Sattaru for ‘Gandivadhari Arjuna’, the film has all the elements required for a perfect commercial entertainer. A grandeur is seen. However, no film makes the audience immerse themselves in the story and travel along with the story. The crucial point of medical vantage point in the story has also been touched upon by Suriya earlier in ‘Singam 3’.

Background music is very important for action movies. Heroism can be elevated with just background music. Emotions can be conveyed to the audience. Such background music did not come from Mickey Jay Mayer. Actually, the background music is not noticeable. The cinematography is good. The visuals on the screen are good. Foreign locations are shown well.

Praveen Sattaru has written the story with international standards. In fact, the carbon footprint is like a cancer in society. A point to be discussed! However, the balance between action & emotions is not successful. Hence, it is difficult to connect to the film.

Gandeevadhari Arjuna Movie Actors Performance: 

Varun Tej has the physique required for an action hero. Director Praveen Sattaru has presented him so that the audience can easily believe that he is a former ‘Raw’ / security officer. He got the best output in terms of acting.

Sakshi Vaidya is an important character in the story. Her character traveled along with the story. She acted well as Aira. Nazar’s performance brought sobriety to the role of Union Minister Aditya Raj Bahadur. Vimala Raman, Abhinav Gomatham, Naren, and others did as per the scope of the roles. Also, Vinay Roy’s villainy is not as much shown at the beginning of the movie as it is at the end.

The last thing to say is…: ‘Gandeevadhari Arjuna’ is an attempt by Varun Tej and Praveen Sattaru to make a movie on the level of Hollywood movies. Some of the action blocks are good. Emotions are not connected. It’s okay to see parts as parties.
