Tharun Bhascker is a highly talented director. Right from his first film ‘Pelli Choopulu’, he showcased his talent to everyone and brought a freshness to Tollywood. His dialogues are relatable, scenes are refreshing and he made two memorable films already which were filled with simple yet beautiful moments. He earned himself a huge fanbase as a filmmaker.
Apart from being a writer and director, Tharun showcasing his acting skills in movies like ‘Meeku Maatrame Cheptha’, ‘Sita Ramam’, ‘Falaknuma Das’ and others. Though he gained good marks for his acting, people still favored him as a director. But things took a turn in ‘Keedaa Cola’. Tharun wrote, directed as well as acted in this movie.
Interestingly, the actor in Tharun completely dominated the director this time. While Chaitanya Rao is the hero for namesake, it is Tharun who carried the movie on his shoulders. The entertainment dose goes to the next level after his Naidu character enters the scene. He brought in a lot of laughs throughout the movie. His character had a lot of elevations and a few emotional dialogues as well.
His subtle acting and simple expressions generated a lot of fun. He stole the show as an actor this time but he failed to reach the expectations both as a writer and director this time. While a few comedy scenes worked out wonderfully, a stronger story and tighter screenplay would have worked wonders. But ‘Keedaa Cola’ ended up as an average time pass movie.
