Timeless beauty Sridevi made an exceptional comeback into films with English Vinglish. Her stellar performance in the film as a middle aged housewife who isn’t cared in the family was globally appreciated. However her comeback stint in Vijay’s Kollywood flick Puli wasn’t up to the snuff. 
 
But now sources say that she has given her nod for yet another offbeat project named Mom. This film is touted to be a female centric film in which Sridevi will be seen as a step mother. Supremely talented Nawazuddin Siddiqui will be seen in a guest role and interestingly, Kamal Hassan’s darling younger daughter Akshara Haasan is being considered for the role of Sridevi’s daughter in this film. 
 
Akshara has already proved her mettle with her impressive performance opposite stalwarts like Amitabh Bachchan and Dhanush in Balki’s Shamitabh and this would be a great opportunity for the starlet to exhibit her acting prowess once again.
 
Sridevi is the mother of two daughters (Kushi & Jhanvi Kapoor) and is the step mom of young Bollywood star Arjun Kapoor & Anshula Kapoor (kids of Boney Kapoor-Mona Shourie) in real life. So, we need to see what sort of a step mom Sridevi plays in the film and what value she adds with her real life experience!

Review: Guntur Talkies (Siddhu, Rashmi Gautam)

maxresdefault
Cast: Siddhu, Rashmi Gautham, Shraddha Das
Banner: RK Studios
Music: Sri Charan
Editor: Dharmendra Kakarala
Producer: Raaj Kumar M
Story- Screenplay-Director: Praveen Sattaru
Story:
 
Hari (Siddhu) and Giri (Naresh) who work in a medical shop are petty thieves. In one such trifling robbery one night, Hari and Giri rob about Rs 5 lakhs each and on top of it a Calcium Sandoz box without mutual knowledge. Both Hari and Giri flee off and their shop keeper (Sudarshan), Inspector Venkat (Raja Ravindra) & CI (Raghu Babu) chase these crooks. Besides them, Hari has Revolver Rani (Shraddha Das) and his muse Suvarna’s (Rashmi) parents chasing him and local don Jackie scouting for the Calcium Sandoz box. How did Hari and Giri survive the fatal hunt for them and what happened to their theft forms the rest of the plot.
 
Actors Performances:
Versatile actor  Naresh steals the show with his exceptionally gritty and hilarious act as ‘Giri’. He is one of the key reasons why you might watch the film throughout. Yet another promising young talent Siddhu has arrived. For all those who might conveniently keep aside this fledgling actor, with Guntur Talkies he announced that he is here to stay.
Seductress actres Reshmi Gautam has successfully pulled the crowds to the theatres but has been just used as a tease and nothing more. Better not to expect much. Shraddha Das is hot and her character was hatke too. When she says “Daa” you must go – entertaining! Unfortunately she got nothing to do beyond that. By the way, you’ve a surprising cameo by none other than Lakshmi Manchu in the film. Check it out for yourselves. Raghu Babu, Raja Ravindra, Potti Sudarshan, Jogi Nayudu, Fish Venkat, Pavala Syamala, Karate Kalyani & others give their best to this crime comedy but none of them were used to their fullest potentials.
 
Technical Aspects: 
 
Besides the enticing Nee Kosam song, no conventional song numbers are to be expected in this film. However, Sri Charan does a decent job with the back ground score. Editing is average but certain scenes during the second half could have been chopped off.
​This is pretty much predictable but leaves the audience with brains full of doubts to come back with pocket full popcorn.
