Ravi’s contribution is significant in keeping the audience from drifting away to someplace else mentally.
Even a bit of background score by composer Ravi Basrur looks inspired by Baahubali 2. In this film, Ramya Krishnan seems like she is still reeling from the hangover of her Sivagami role. The film has no trace of the screenplay as it looks like a bunch of songs and fight scenes woven around a handful of stock characters. Repeat the first four routines in the list. Hero worshipping scene followed by a punch dialogue and a fight. Being an exemplary human being and son he is, Veeraj obediently accepts his mother’s decision without even batting an eyebrow.ĭirector A Harsha has remained very loyal to the Tamil film Poojai that Anjaniputra is based on.
The irony is while everyone in the world knows Veeraj is a flawless man and has all of the goodness in him, Anjana finds him guilty even without asking an explanation and throws him out of the house. The significant problem with formulaic films is that the characters in such films mostly do things that are out of one’s character.Īnjana Devi (Ramya Krishnan) loves her son unconditionally and knows who he really is. His mother sends him away after Veeraj was caught on the wrong foot. Puneeth’s Veeraj is a prince in exile due to some misunderstanding in his family. When we consider all of his films, it doesn’t come as surprise as to why Puneeth gravitated towards his role in Anjaniputra.Īnjaniputra, a remake of Tamil film Poojai, is a deeply formulaic hero-worshipping drama that begins to get on the nerves after a certain point. Even in action movies like Jackie and Raaj-The Showman, he is a tough nut for everyone else but remains an obedient son to his mother. Especially, in most of his films, he has played a character that worships his mother. And he said, “If I’m able to see some of myself in that character, I agree to play it.” In his entire career so far, 90 percent of his films can be classified under the ‘family drama’ column. During an interaction with Kannada actor Puneeth Rajkumar, ahead of the release of his new film Anjaniputra, I asked him how does he select his characters.
