Featured review
Mark my words, Mark. Let's all party in Denmark.
This Telugu remake of Samuthirakani's Vinodhaya Sitham, adapted to screen by Trivikram keeps the sweet message intact but misses out on the specifics in it's attempt to glorify the Powerstar. Markandeyulu aka Mark, is trying hard to run the family with an iron fist and get his sisters settled in life which he deems to be good for them. A fatal accident, pitches him against Time himself who gives him a second chance at making this right with a deadline of 90 days.
The original had an aged Thambi Ramaiah getting the second chance and somehow it is easier to connect with his story. Here, Mark is too young to join a company and within 8 years raise upto the level of GM or even MD of the company. It is this age factor alone makes it hard to relate to him trying to control all his siblings and their lives. Bringing in Pawan Kalyan as the Time, in a role Samuthirakani had played subtly. That very subtlety is stripped off and in the attempt to do ultimate fan service, the random addition of Pawan Kalyan's songs don't gel well with the film's narrative.
Sure, there are quire a few sermons the Time provides but none leave a mark. The songs are below the mark as well. The key scene of Mark's outburst at the pub is undermined with a song and the forced action scene doesn't offer much. There is a certain expectation when the dialogues are from Trivikram but he doesn't live upto the expectation. The effort that went in adapting the simple Tamil story, loses it's essence over commercializing it.
