There is just one shot in ‘Srimanthudu’ that is getting connected to kids and teens quite heavily. While they may not understand the concept of adopting villages to the core, its these scenes that are making things work positively for this latest film of Mahesh Babu.
Apparently Mahesh gets into a bus-door in a shot, and says ‘Right Right’. Most kids while playing with friends enact these acts of driving buses and cars, and say ‘Right Right’, which a bus-conductor utters always to instruct his driver to steer the bus forward. Such scenes are seldom seen in city atmosphere but those in towns and villages often witness it.
So, kids are getting strongly connected to that act of Mahesh, and their next favorite in the movie is Mahesh Babu’s cycling. Because most of them use cycles even today, while in cities we see them travelling in sharing-autos and going to school by bus.
With these right ingredients in place, Mahesh Babu and Koratala Siva have done the magic.
