For example, the action scene at Khadar bhai's place. Murugan's uncle (Lal) is an important person in his life and plays a prominent part in the narrative, but the dialogues are routine.Įvery time you think that the track involving Daddy Girija (Jagapathy Babu) and Kumar is not exciting, there is something or the other introduced to offer good amount of consolation. For example, how Kumar had the acid test of his life when he had to confess love to Myna.
Some of the episodes would seem needlessly indulgent to the Telugu audience.
And thankfully, 'Manyam Puli's raison d'etre lies in getting these portions bang on, never mind the cinematic liberties. Depicting tiger-hunting by the male lead can be mundane or fabulous depending on the ideas/execution. It's in the portions related to intense action scenes (high on both emotions and technique) that the movie packs a punch. Such elements can't be sold recklessly to an audience who have gone beyond seeing entertainment in the 'gilli kajjalu' between a wife who turns into an insecure child-woman at the sight of a sleeveless 'sundari' and a husband who reiterates love at the drop of a hat. The very manner in which Mohanlal is introduced as a heroic hunter announces that the film is superstar-oriented.Īnd since he is 'the Complete Actor', he is made to romance like a 30-something and worse. The pre-title track of the child Kumar avenging the murder of his father by a tiger, sets the tone for a thrilling experience.
MANYAM PULI FULL MOVIE IN TELUGU HOW TO
After discounting the boons of nativity (most of which may not work for an alien audience - in this case the Telugus), the dubbed version fares reasonably well.įor all the pedestrian sub-plots (especially the one involving the lecherous cop), director Vysakh knows well how to sequence his telling. Since 'Pulimurugan', of which 'Manyam Puli' is the dubbed version, has graduated to become the biggest-ever grosser in Mollywood's history, we have to assume that its story-telling, technical output and the lead actor's performance have been seen as top-notch by its audience. Somewhere, the suspicious-looking Jagapathi Babu, who has all along come across as a villager needing Kumar's help to wipe out a tiger, reveals at the interval bang that he is Daddy Girija, the purported villain of the piece. Kumar willingly joins the efforts to harvest 'ganjai' for the company so his brother can land a plum job. Interspersed with these two tracks is the sub-plot of a pharma company's attempt to own the forbidden 'ganjai' avowedly to make an anti-cancer drug.
When he is not putting up a physical and moral fight against tigers and wildfire protection laws, Kumar leads the life of a normal family man, complete with youthful romance with wife Myna (Kamalinee Mukherjee), booz-filled bromance with his 'bava' and the bro, and occasional reciprocation of Julie's (Namitha) pining for his machismo. His hunger for killing murderous tigers far exceeds the appetite of the dreaded beasts to hunt down human flesh. Never the one to rest when a tiger threatens human lives, he had avenged the killing of his father even as a child by adventurously and methodically snuffing out a ferocious tiger.
Kumar (Mohanlal) is that heroic tiger-hunter whom the people dwelling in the villages around a dense forest regard as their saviour. 'Manyam Puli', the dubbed version of 'Pulimurugan', is an action adventure film.
