There is common complaint from people that film stories have become too formulaic in recent times. It is being said that most films are simply changing their titles and hitting the screen.
One hero who is hit by formula is Ram. Long long ago, Kona Venkat made Dhee and later Ram had a hit with Ready. Since then the trend of hero staying at the villain’s house and then getting the girl has become a norm.
Another formula is that of the hero coming down from the US and uniting a divided family. Incidentally, right now, all busy writers are working on these lines.
All they are doing is to change character names and show the same thing again and again. On the same lines, Ram’s Pandaga Chesko is one example of formula story. While the story is like a cross breed, there is no originality say the audiences.
Heroes who are stuck with formulas better be prepared for change.
