Acharya transported me to the good old days when I cheered Chiru Garu for his dance steps and fight scenes. I thank the choreographer and stunt master for showing only this one movement repeatedly and by this they have satisfied me as a fan. Thank You Mr Koratala Siva for giving the ` vintage' Chiru but I did not like Chiru Garu being passive.in some scenes. Above all, I always rated Chiru Garu as Superstar and Siva has shown it. A whole village pulls a wooden chariot but it does not move. Chiru Garu just nudges it and OMG it starts to roll. Thank You Mr Siva. Also I liked the scene where a knife or a sword pierces into a man's stomach and comes out the other side and then pierces the stomach of the man behind and comes out from other side . Chiru Garu pulls out the knife and uses to behead many more. Thoughtful choreographer - he saved on production cost.
Now I knew that Ram Charan real heir to Chiru Garu is going to dominate second half and was looking for a duo song and fight like in RRR. Thank You Mr Siva for adding comic elements in the otherwise gory fight with two Indian Cinema legends together. Mani Sharma your music made my day . Transported to those days of the 80's and also the BGM tracks of those days that you re-used here.
Once again I thank Mr Siva for chopping off scenes of all actors except Chiru- RC and Sonu Sood. It is not only Kajol but all were given same treatment. Regina and Sangeetha could have upstaged Samantha if the film was released before Pushpa.
Art director is so innovative that the tribal villagers are living in houses with fresh coat of paint. Swacch Bharat. Thiru camera can only capture what is given to him. Such films give me the motivation to live life to the full. Chiru Garu who is elder tan me is so robust and full of life. My humble request to reviewers please don't compare Rajamouli's way of presenting RC in RRR to Siva's Acharya.
Off theater experience : Next seat guy was saying Mirchi and another was arguing saying Dharma Teja and a third said Farishtay. I got a WhatsApp msg saying Liquat Ali Khan has moved writer union saying Acharya is Poonthootha kavalkaran. Might be a fake news as I have never seen anything so original in recent times. Now I respect Jagan Garu for agreeing to increase ticket prices. The film should have been tax free. He earned a few crores for AP treasury.
