Cast: Varun Tej, Pooja Hegde, Rao Ramesh, Prakash RajDirection: Sreekanth AddalaGenre: ActionDuration: 2 hours 22 minutes
Set in a small town in Andhra Pradesh, the film revolves around a youngster, Mukunda, who challenges the domination of the Municipal Chairman and the rest of the story is about how he ends up inspiring everyone around him.
Movie Review : Every once in a while there comes a film, which stands apart from the rest in terms of the subject it explores and the tone of narrative, although the nuances might not be blatant. You know it's different because it tries to break free from the template of an action comedy, a genre that has become synonymous with Telugu cinema these days. And more than anything, the setting of the story itself is a far cry from the modernism that Telugu filmmakers have got habituated to in recent few years. Sreekanth Addala's latest offering Mukunda is exactly that kind of film and much more. It's a film which is so aware of the milieu that it's exploring that you get sucked into the narrative to have a ringside look at the complex characters that inhabit the canvas the story unfolds on.
Varun Tej plays the eponymous Mukunda, who always comes to the rescue of his friend Arjun, who's in love with a girl from the town's Municipal Chairman's (played by Rao Ramesh) family. Their budding relationship doesn't go down well with the girl's family and Arjun always gets into trouble.
