Morning Show Muchatlu - Gorintaku
After a dashing role of a police officer in Evadaite Nakenti, Rajashekar makes a subdued appearance in Gorintaku, the remake of a kannada hit Anna Thangi. Gorintaku is a weepy, sentimental drama that revolves around the brother-sister relationship and director VR Pratap takes full advantage of the emotionally fertile premise and dishes out old wine in a new bottle.
Rajashekar plays a dual role. After his death, his children Rajashekar and Meera Jasmine grow up to be good people in the village but things go wrong once they are married. An old lady who claims to be a relative seeks an entry into Rajshekar’s home and begins to disintegrate the family. She actually is out to take vengeance and that flash back is revealed too soon, she then creates difference between Meera jasmine and Aarti Agarwal (Rajshekar’s wife)and between Meera and her husband’s family. By the time Rajshekar realises that something is going wrong, it’s too late.
The archaic story is ridiculously melodramatic but the B and C class audiences might find it absorbing for all the family values and all that emotional terrain that the director covers. The climax is little too hard to accept, the director chooses to avoid a feel good ending and bumps off the siblings in the climax, to justify the brother-sister bonding. There is no attempt to make the story look different or breathe life to this extended sob story that resembles one of Ekta Kapoor’s serials.
Meera Jasmine looks pretty benefits from having the best-written character in the film, Aarti Agarwal is obese but does her part well. Meaningless role it is for Rajashekar and all he had to do in the film is look conventional, unobtrusive and most of the time sad or happy. A few numbers are watchable and technically it fails to make a mark. Overall, if you’re a sucker for sentiment, love those sweet and sad ensemble dramas then Gorintaku is the film for you, but there is surely some potential for a much better film waiting in this genre.
