Arati Thokka and Its Story
God Created Us, Story begins in Vaikuntham, where Goddess Lakshmi (Kovai Sarala) asks Lord Vishnu (Brahmanandam) narrate a story. The story takes off from live stories of two orphans Ravi Teja and Ileana. Raviteja was settlement Raja in Hyderabad and Ileana is a taxi driver in Bangkok. Story happens when Papayya (M.S.Narayana) peels of Banana (arati thokka) and throws it on road. This leads to few situations where Ravi teja flies to Bangkok in search of Bangkok Don Prakash Raj in order to settle a deal with Circle Inspector Subba Raju and Prakash Raj. Ravi teja falls in love with Ileana in first sight and in no time they are separated due to misunderstanding.
Coming back to Vaikuntham, Goddess Lakshmi was unhappy with the story as Ileana and Ravi teja were seperated. Vishnu Murthy thinks in another way to keep Lakshmi happy and rewinds the story and prevent Papayya to throw arati thokka. This makes a new story in second half which ends in climax.
Performances
Ravi Teja gave his expected performance through out the film. He performed his role as settlement raja with his high energy levels and distinct dialogue delivery. The actor is in backseat with his recent films and this too is down with very weak script. Wishing Ravi Teja would come up with best scripts lineup in future.
Ileana is lean in her screen apperance, we can assume she has come down to below zero size for hindi offers. She was just ok in her performances and looked glamorous in only one song.
While coming to others, Ali comedy track was hilarious with his face expressions and perfect timing. Prakash Raj, Subbaraju, MS Narayana and Fish Venkat done their best. Jyothi Rana oozed her beauty at the times and Gabriela Bertante was hot in item song.
Technical Analysis
Puri Jagannath has once again came up with poor and silly script work that resulted in dragging in the second half of the film. The entire show of DCM disappointed Ravi teja fans mainly. Dialogues were also not up to the mark as audience expect a lot from Puri Jagan. Raghu Kunche given best songs and very well recorded background score which is the only plus point and cinematography by Shyam K Naidu was good. Editing looks slick with standard run-time. Production values are not upto mark as in earlier Puri jagannath's films.
Analysis
Puri Jagannath took the audiences for granted with his illogical and senseless script. The script was very weak and narration wasn't in depth to make the audiences stick back to the screens. With the old title the film has some expectations but the final result seems like a Aarati Thokkaloo Story by Puri Jagan. Lord Vishnu and Goddess Lakshmi roles didn't attract the audience as they did not show any miracles. Puri Jagan mark dialouges, screenplay were entirely missing. Climax was a big torture and unconvincing. First half shows the entertainment and Second half pushes you out from theatre...
My Take
Never thought if anyone can make a film with Arati Thokka... – It is Torture Unlimited expecting not to happen this again..
ZC Take :
U think ! 'Thokkalo' Movie ki Banana Review !. Watch it ,you will never eat Banana again....
Zustcinema Devudu Chesina Manushulu Rating :- 1.75 / 5
