Siddham (Telugu)


Starring: Jagapathi Babu, Sindhu Menon

JD Chakravarthy, the actor turned director, trying his luck with re-makes of Hollywood and Bollywood has done a fair job in the movie. This movie is remake or so to say exact replica of 'Ab tak Chappan' bollywood movie.

The lead role played by Jagapathi Babu, has done lot of homework before this movie, giving himself a different hair style. Jagapathi Babu playing a cop who leads the task force has done a decent job (nevertheless should not be compared to Nanapataker in Ab Tak chappan). The movie has been treated well, with momentum being carried throughout, the only flaws would be that the movie loses momentum 15 mins before the end.

Sindhu Menon had nothing to make an impact. The other characters in the movie played their part well, especially the team which Jagapathi Babu leads has done well. The dialogs in the movie have been straight translation from the original version. For those who have not seen Ab Tak Chappan and who enjoy watching cop stories, this is a good watch.

Overall, it's a decent short movie. Would rate it 2.5 on 5.

Cheers
