The movie Lakshmi's NTR that some claim has boosted life in to RGV's career is,on the contrary, unfortunately the death of himself as a director. We grew up learning about direction and its contribution to cinema from 1989(shiva).Heck 70% of movie fraternity claims it did. But a sold-RGV we cannot digest.The RGV we knew never took sides. Put truth and facts on the pedestal. Very unlike what he did with Lakshmi's NTR, a pure YSRCP propaganda film. RGV's fall from grace echoes with the snake charmer BGM when they show CBN. Perhaps the only director whose career is a coffin made of last nails, Iam sure the die-hard fans are now dwindling(me for one).Stopped following him on twitter. Thoroughly agree with the reviewer
The last time we saw NTR on-screen, he had won his second general election, become the Chief Minister of an undivided Andhra Pradesh, and said goodbye to his beloved wife, Basavatarakam. "Kuch paane ke liye kuch khona padta hain" and all the thematic significance that comes with that off-handed movie quote.
With Lakshmi's NTR, we are in 1989 and made privy to the fact that NTR (P Vijay Kumar) has been usurped from power again (by the people of Andhra Pradesh this time around). He is a man who has now lost his veneer of invincibility, and in his darkest hour, gains his biographer ....
