Fails to entertain completely, but okay to watch a few scenes by skipping. Babu Bangaram is attempted to be a comedy entertainer and a movie to signify the 30 year movie milestone. It fails to entertain partially with Maruti losing his logical grip on few scenes especially the comedy scenes.
Weak scenes: 1. Brahmanadam's hypnosis- even though the scenes might seem funny, it was ridiculous the way hypnosis was shown. It doesn't make any sense.
2. It was explained by Venkatesh as 'truth' as he describes every detail of what happened with Sastry (Nayanatara's father), Raid officer, Posani and Sampath. But it is depicted as he has deduced all that without even taking help of Sastry, which is nearly impossible.
3. The climax fight with such a shallow reference to "Bobbili Raja" with Venkatesh laughing like crazy was dreadful.
The movie started to depict the hero's character as with too much mercy. That trait seemed to have been exaggerated and didn't work as favor.
Even though the story, a few comedy scenes were good, the movie loses realism because of cinematic references like "Telling about having a duet before duet", " joke told to Vennela Kishore about himself" and self boasters like " First time that hero protects a Villain persuaded by a villain" told by Venkatesh himself, very amateur from such a reputed and successful director like Maruthi.
I am disappointed that I decided to watch this movie trusting Maruthi and Venkatesh without seeing its rating and review. Better skip and watch few scenes which should suffice.
