King of Kotha Movie Story:

The movie King of Kotha is set in the 1980s. An ordinary boy turns his life upside down to become an underworld don who unexpectedly rules the town. Raju, who is a good football player by nature, turns into a king by defeating many gangs. That’s why Raju (Dulquer Salmaan) is angry, police, political leaders, and gangs all plan to destroy him. How did the king get out of these gangs? Where did the king’s journey end up? King of Kotha is a new movie that is the answer to such questions.

King of Kotha Movie Analysis:

We are not new to gangster movies. But the presentation is very important. There is nothing new in the story. Many movies have come up with this concept. But in the way of showing, King of New has its uniqueness. But there are no big twists in the movie. The entire first half fits the character introduction in the story. The real story begins in the second half. The movie is slow but never boring. Dulquer is perfect for Raju’s character. Another strong character in this movie is the role played by Naila Usha. The background music of the movie is also well-set.

King of Kotha Movie Actors Performance:

There is nothing new to say about Dulquer Salmaan’s performance. Like his previous film Kurup, he seems to have done it very easily as it is a character with shades. The great thing about Dulquer Salmaan is that despite being a Malayalam actor, he dubs himself in Telugu. Dulquer’s body language in the role of a 40-year-old man is impressive. 

Also, Dan is flattering. After Raju’s role, Shabbir’s role in the film will be noteworthy. His body language is very different. Nilea Usha in the role of mother felt no problem. Gokul Suresh, Shanthi Krishna, and Anikha Surendran have done justice to their roles. Ritika Singh’s steps are good in the special song. 

Vikram’s son Dhruv Vikram’s guest appearance got good applause. His looks are also good. Aishwarya Lakshmi as the heroine has done well. Chemban Vinod made us laugh while looking serious with his performance. And the rest of the actors did justice to their roles.

King of Kotha Movie Technical Department:

Cinematography Nimish Ravi can be said to have carried the film on his shoulders. Throughout the film, he has shown something new with his camera work. Especially, the way slow-motion shots and character introduction shots are composed is impressive. BGM is more popular than Jakes Bijoy songs. He especially hit the elevation shots. Very rhythmic unlike the regular format. And the art director succeeded in recreating the conditions of 1980. The production values are very good.

Rating: 2.5/5
