Andala Rakshasi Movie Review:-
'Love is the irresistible gravity between hearts that pulls them
into the game of fate'. This has been best carried out on the screen through Andala Rakshasi. Hanu Raghavapudi debut directorial
venture has sound technical values. The heart-touching love story seems to be a
rehash of Manirathnam's early film. It appears like the director is retelling
the story of Mounaragam with tragic end.

The cinematography of Murali G is the major attraction of the
movie Andhala Rakshasi. Lead
actors' performance, Radhan's musical score, Hanu Raghavapudi's poetic
narration, comedy, stunning visuals, amazing art work are its other highlights.
The lethargic and slow paced narration is its biggest drawback.
The story of Andhala
Rakshasi, which is set in 1991, is centre-staged on three pure
hearts Surya, Gowtham and Midhuna. It is all about falling in love, forgetting
and waiting for love. The film highlights love and its dark side of tormenting
its patrons in pursuit of it. They resemble the three celestial bodies Sun,
Moon and Earth. Set in motion by the force of love, the three individuals can
neither come close nor cut off, but are destined to revolve around the dear
ones.
Gowtham (Rahul Ravindran) is son of a rich father. He falls in
love with Mithuna (Lavanya Tripathi) at first sight. And he wants to marry her,
but he waits for her to develop love towards him. But she is emotionally
connected to her dead lover Surya (Naveen Chandra). Whether Gowtham will find a
replace or not will form the crux of the story.
The narration is very slow and nothing interesting happens in the
first half of the movie, in which Gowtham and Mithuna are just sitting in his
father's hill resort. He keeps gazing at her, while she is awkward and anxious
and is looking around except him. This whole sequence appears blank and
dragging.
Rahul Ravindran has delivered wonderful acting, his expressions
throughout the movie are awesome. As Mithuna, Lavanya Tripathi has done her
part very well and she emotes well, which is appealing. But it is Naveen
Chandra, whose rock-solidness makes everyone like him in the end. Others have
also done justice to their roles.

Murali G's camera work is main attraction in the technical front.
Then comes art work, which is also super. Radhan's music is also plus point of
the movie. His compositions like 'Yemito' and 'Emito ivale rekkalochinattu' are
good to listen. Editing is also commendable.

Story:-
Spoiler alert!
It's a tragedy! The film ends in one i.e. But then there was a time in Telugu
cinema, (the mid to late eighties to be specific) when films tragic romances
like Mouna Raagam and Geetanjali were the zeitgeist. Andala Rakshasi is of that
vintage, as far as matters of taste, sensibility and cinematic integrity go at
least. On the flip side though the film avoids all the "silly
business"(read as forced comedy tracks, silly jokes, unconnected action)
that most filmmakers resort to, hoping to appeal to the masses among the
audience.
A rare few filmmakers though try to make the movie that they want to make, the one that they think the audiences will identify with. Debutante director, Hanu seems to belong to that category. It has to be said he has given a good account of himself in his first outing in bringing back irony and despair into romance.
Set in the early nineties, the film revolves around the Gautham, Lavanya and Surya. Gautham is the only son of a rich dad who owns Rs 500 crore worth of businesses. But he prefers to live life making a pittance playing guitar at a local pub instead. He falls in love the first time he sees Midhuna. She happens to kick a football which throws him off his bike while he's on his way to somewhere. The two get to meet each other again when Midhuna survives a fatal accident. Gautham's dad helps her family with the finances needed to save her life.
But then Midhuna comes back to life from a four month coma enquiring if a certain Surya is dead, and she is more than destroyed when her parents nod in confirmation. It turns out Surya is a bit of a wastrel who can't help landing himself in trouble all the time. But he's so struck by Midhuna that he follows her until she falls for him eventually, which is when the accident happens. And then Gautham discovers that Surya is still alive, in self destruct mode yet his love for Midhuna still intact. Then the melodrama kicks in.
The film is told in a series of gripping flash backs, going back and forth in time. The cinematography is crackling. The filmmaker uses landscape of Ooty to drive home the poignancy of the romance and doing a good job of recreating the nineties. Each frame seems to have been constructed with care. The background score gives you the goose bumps. The music is melodious and fun and writing is lyrical yet simple. On technical front there isn't much to complain about.
The performances are natural and haunting. The debutante Lavanya has the author backed role and does a great job of it. She has a very versatile face and the filmmaker utilized it to the hilt. The boys Naveen Chandra and Rahul were both pretty good themselves.
It's the tragic climax that runs against the grain of commercial Telugu cinema with its compulsive obsession for happy endings. Also it is loaded too much with the 90's sensibility of tragedy and sacrifice. Also the movie moves along at a pace of its own and it might not really cut ice with our audiences used to the predictability of "masala".
