The latest Telugu film to hit the theaters post the second wave of COVID-19 is Vishwak Sen’s “Paagal." The film is here. Vishwak Sen sounded confident about this film and made some remarks which made it to the headlines.

Let’s find out whether the film is paisa vasool as Vishwak claimed or not.

Story:
Prem (Vishwak Sen) loses his mother at a young age. He grows up yearning for motherly love. After getting a job, he embarks on a journey of proposing love to many girls with the hope of receiving abundant affection and love. But he could not find the girl that he is actually looking for.

Finally, he meets Theera in Vizag, a girl who is doing some research on plants! After yelling ‘I Love You’ for him in the middle of the road, she teases him that she never did such a thing. 

After much deliberation, she agrees to be his girlfriend for six months. Why does she agree to be his ‘temporary girlfriend’?

Why did she utter ‘I Love You’ to him on a busy road without knowing him?

Artistes’ Performances:
Known for his hyper active style, Vishwak Sen displays energy in his performance. He is charming as a lover boy. His character is designed as sort of a person obsessed with finding love. That suits his image of a boisterous guy. 

Nivetha Pethuraj brightens up the proceedings with her pleasant performance in the second half when the movie begins to go southwards.

Bhumika and Simran Chaudhary make cameo appearances. Murali Sharma has played a role that is not at all tasteful. Rahul Ramakrishna and Mahesh Achanta are okay. 

Technical Excellence:
Radhan’s two songs are peppy. “Google Google” is the best of them. The cinematography and production design are colorful. The dialogues are neat.

Highlights:
Some youthful scenes
Nivetha – Vishwak Sen’s portion
Two songs

Drawback:
Main plot
Illogical Story and scenes
No Emotional Connect
Convenient situations
