Performances
Bala Krishna delivers a
brilliant performance. As Jayadev, he is very impressive and excelled
in sentiment, action scenes with his trademark style dialogue delivery
and too good screen presence. Legend is a true delight for Bala Krishna
fans where the star even impresses with political reference dialogues.
Radhika Apte looks royal and here characterization is neatly etched. Her scenes with Bala Krishna are an additional asset.
Sonal Chauhan is glamorous and sizzles in a brief role. Her dubbing could have been better.
Jagapathi Babu is a
revelation in the negative lead. He brought style to the role with his
good screen presence and his mark dialogue delivery. Brahmanandam is
wasted in a poor role, Kalyani and Suhasini Maniratnam are impressive,
Brahmaji, LB Sriram, Chalapathi Rao were okay in their regular roles.
Technical Analysis
Devi Sri Prasad’s music scores are just
okay but the BGM elevates the powerful scenes and takes the proceedings
to next level. Cinematography is on top-notch. Boyapati Srinu’s
direction in the second half is effective while he could have made it
racy in first half too. Dialogues by Rathnam are massy and needs special
mention. Screenplay is racy while editing could have been crispier with
160.29 mins long run time. Production values by 14 Reels and Varaahi
banners are lavish.
Analysis
With their earlier combo being a
blockbuster Simha, expectations on Legend are quite high among movie
lovers. Boyapati Srinu packed it with right mix of commercial
ingredients and showcasing Bala Krishna in a powerful role. Bala
Krishna’s performance, mannerisms, energetic dances, sentimental scenes
and his typical style of dialogue delivery are as asset for Legend and
would impress all the actor’s fans. Second half is the major asset of
the movie and the sharp dialogues in the second hour are an additional
asset. All the lead casts Radhika Apte, Jagapathi Babu performances are
impressive.
On the downside, Brahmanandam’s comedy
track irritates and songs in the first hour aren’t effective. Despite
the racy screenplay and exciting Bala Krishna’s performance, it lacked
freshness and reminds you the shades of Simha.
While the first half is okay with few
interesting moments, the interval bang in too good leaving scope to
second half. The flash back episodes are effective and Jayadev’s
characterization gels with the masses.
Final Verdict
Legend- Bala Krishna’s ‘Legend’ary performance delights fans!!!
