40. Movie Review : Narsimha Naidu - A Balakrishna Blockbuster

I accept and i don't mind accepting it. I am a big fan of Balakrishna  and I am big big big big crazy fan of Simran. I love her like anything and if there is one woman i would like to time travel and marry, ti would be Simran. She is so womanly and so strong. I love her mole above her lips, which is also her beauty spot and i love that she rarely ( i have never seen) wears Nail polish. I hate nail polish and Lipstick, unless they are very neatly done which is another fetish of mine which we will discuss some other time.

I don't remember which film of Balakrishna i had first, or do i ?? Yes, now that i think of it, i do remember which film of his i saw first. I am also a crazy fan of Nayanathara and I find her very beautiful and you can measure my craziness for her from the fact that i have seen all her interviews on youtube, also downloaded them, without having an iota of knowledge what she is speaking. She speaks Tamil and Malayalam primarily, because she is a Malyali who later ventured into Tamil Cinema and conquered it.

NOTE ** I also have a fan page on Facebook for Balakrishna that is operated by me.

The first film of Balakrishna that i saw was Simha. Simha was released in 2010 and it was blockbuster, just like all South Indian films. Trust me, the more i wiki South Indian Films, the more usage of the term blockbuster i encounter. They use the word 'blockbuster' and 'broke all records' so mercilessly like it does not mean anything at all. But Simha was a real blockbuster and i have my resources for it. That film has a very well known speech by Bala famously called "No Police" and i used to banter my brother with that dialogue without knowing a word of it. My brother used to get so irritated by it that after getting married he started irritating his newly wedded wife by saying "No Police" to all her arguments, before he was one day scolded and the whole phrase was banned from his life.

I went to an audition today for Akshay Kumar's Upcoming film 'Padman' but I didn't give the audition because i was irritated by the way they randomly taking auditions without giving preference to who came first. Though the role was petite one but my excitement fizzled down after a while sitting there in a room which has no ventilation and no AC and no fans were working there. I thanked God that my life was not dependent on Acting and left from there after two hours of torturous ordeal.
I was having severe headache and i didn't want to read any book or do anything. I wanted to sit and do something and not use my brain. At these points of my life, i seek south Indian films, especially of my Favorite Balakrishna because there is few logics in the film, lots of fights and thorough entertainment. I searched my computer disks and hard disks and some time back, I don't know how much back, I had made a folder called Tamil Films and there were three films in it. All the three films were of Simran. I wonder why i didn't name the folder Simran's Films. There were two other films of her with Kamal Haasan and one with Balakrishna. I immediately Balakrishna's film on my VLC. I googled the name and opened Wikipedia as part of my habit before watching any film and it turned out the the film broke several box office records during its release until Indra came in 2005 and broke its records.

I loved Simran in the film so much that i even watched all the songs of her without skipping them. The film is a typical revenge drama, where Hero wanted to take revenge from the Villain, Hero has a backstory, he had made some promises to someone and breaks them later only to beat more people, hero cares for people around him and beats everyone else, dances in foreign locations, a girl in present time, played by Preeti Jhangiani , who has beautiful close up shots and not much role,  who crazily loves the hero who has amusingly very thing fingers compared to his bloated body. Half of the film is fighting and songs and rest half is scenes which jumps from here to there without telling you why and without any respect to time line of life. There are after fight scenes where Balakrishna as blood on his face that more looks like over done foundation.

But the film is highly entertaining. You know the film before it's started that how it is going to and the writer innocently tries to put twists in the film which you know will happen. It is like anything they put in there, one feels like he knows what is going to happen. It is like there are only limited possibilities of what could happen in a film like this.

Balakrishna wears wig and that does not bother you because he looks like a man who can do anything and after a while you don't bother about his hair. In one of the scenes he even murders one of the zamindar who has done atrocity to his family and there is no police inquiry, in fact he resumes his cool life and get married to a girl later who has no idea about who he is, pretty ignorant girl she is. That girl is played by Simran who has just got one major monologue for which i guess she must have signed the film, of course money would be another reason. The little sister of Simran is played by Some new girl or may be wannabe actress of that time Asha Saini and there are banter sequences in the film between her and Balakrishna that are s weird that they redefine the world of illogical storytelling. She even has a song with Balakrishna with Lux Logo on the back. It is hilarious.

Still i had to watch the film in complete form because like any other film of Balakrishna it was thoroughly entertaining and endless fun.
