A Masterpiece!

Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.

It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.

Rachcha Rachcha is a mass mas-ala entertainer with all mass actions.. Ram char-an's performance is not up to the mark...The expressions char-an made in action n comedy scenes are too worst ...Tammana is so good in the movie ...Especially the song Vanna Vanna is so terrific ....Except that one song there is nothing in the film ...Better to avoid it !! While coming to the comedy scenes, the actors like bharmanandhnam and Ali are good but not perfect ...venu's character is wasted ...overall the movie some what looks like the remake of an old movie. The director sampath is not so good at the script .. Overall it's a blw avg movie ....

I'm not from Andhra Pradesh and I don't know telugu. I watched this movie only because i couldn't get tickets for the others. I watched a Malayalam dubbed version. This movie is a frickin disaster. There's nothing in this movie that you could enjoy. First of all, the movie was predictable and the story was old and repetitive. Me and my friends were laughing our a$$es off at some of the superhuman abilities of the hero (happens in most of Indian the movies now). The story was nothing, acting was mostly overacting, I don't know anything about the songs, no character development at all, some stunts were good but most of them were unbelievable. Maghadheera was a classic while this movie is crap. Heard that this movie is a superhit in AP, it's almost killing me. these filmmakers are killing the Industry by filling some half baked cliché movies. Its a must not see movie. my rating: 1/10 (there's no more down)

There seems to be a new template for any Telugu film, that is the hero should have a deceased savior-like father and a village waiting to be a rescued, and few uniformed thugs waiting to get killed by the custom-designed weapon of the hero, a girl who waits to be wooed by the hero in spite of the threats posed by her father. And not to forget few girls (if there are some mature women who can mouth some silly dialogues much the better) singing paeans of the physique of the hero and a gang of silly comedians waiting to be thrashed (mind you not killed) by the villain. Rachcha is no different. Rachha starts with Cherry, a 5-year old boy being witness to a mass deaths of his village along with his parents and dearest friend Ammu. The same boy grows into Betting Raj (Ram Charan Teja) who just loves betting. He places bets and wins money. His adopted father (MS Narayana) falls ill and needs around 20 lakhs for the medical treatment. A competitor of him in his bets, James (Ajmal) throws him a bet for 20 lakhs in which he has to make, Chaitra (Tamanna), the daughter of a most-feared contractor, Bellary (Mukesh Rishi) fall in love with him. From then on, Raj focuses on winning the love of Chaitra. But little does he know that Chaitra has a past which has links to his own past and the deaths of his parents and villagers. What is the common past which they both share? Who are Raj and Chaitra? To find the answers for these questions, catch Rachha on screen. As we said earlier, Rachha is not a enjoyable ride. It does not have an engaging screenplay though the story is decent, though routine. It just rests its weight on the shoulders of its hero, Ram Charan and nothing more. The young star does manage to hold on his own and the present collections and success is just due to him. Other than the presence of Ram Charan, the movie is just a nightmare. There is no proper transition from scene to scene which is imperative for any movie. The director Sampath Nandi has clearly set his audience, which are set in the B&C centers and catered to their tastes only. If he could have polished his screenplay a bit and ensured that the flow from one scene to the other scene to be smooth without being out-of-place, the things would have been different. For instance, the audience expect its the most popular "Vana Vana Velluvaaye" song to come with proper build-up but it just pops on to the screen without any hungama, which is a dampener of sorts. Also the danger posed by the villainous trio is not established properly. All the villainy showed was a bunch of uniformed jokers parading as security for Chaitra. For that purpose, the director had to bring in another villain in the form of Dev Gill, though he added nothing other than to repeat the Magadheera sentiment. The director had no clue on how to elevate the characterisation of his hero and hence had to make the heroine reveal all his characteristics in one scene. Also the flashback episode in which Partibhan plays the father of Ram Charan, is surprisingly lackadaisical. In fact, the most powerful father character was reduced to be a victim rather than a savior. If the director and his bunch of experienced writers in the form of Paruchuri Brothers, ironed out some flaws in the characterisation of the hero and villains, "Rachha" would have been a true commercial entertainer for all the classes rather than limiting itself for the B & C centers. Coming to the performances, Ram Charan is the one who carried the film on his shoulders. His diction improved a lot compared to "Orange" and he seems to be evolving as an actor. But he tried to imitate his father, Chiranjeevi, a lot and the deliberate attempt was seen in many scenes. If Charan concentrates on developing his own brand of acting than imitating, then he sure would be a powerhouse of a performer. He needs to develop that story and screenplay sense. The bravura he showed in selecting the director should have echoed in the story and screenplay too. Tamanna, as usual looked milky-white than beautiful. She was mechanical in the role, unlike the spunk she showed in her last release, Oosaravelli. May be she was disinterested in the proceedings and so looked forlorn. Mukesh Rishi, Dev Gill, Kota Srinivasa Rao, Paruchuri Venkateswara Rao, Nasser, Partibhan were all routine. Comedy gang in the form to Brahmanandam, Ali, Venumadhav, Srinivasa Reddy, Tagubothu Ramesh, Jhansi were all too routine. For a change MS Narayana became a character actor than a comedian. Ajmal, the actor who thrilled with his villainy in Rangam, shines in his short role. The technical departments, Camera (Sameer Reddy), Music (Mani Sharma) and Art (Anand Sai), Editing (Gowtam Raju) were just passable. Few of the songs had good choreography and they would please their target audience. The Re-recording by Mani Sharma given did not add much to the film and just remained as a routine fare. Rachha is a ride in mediocrity though it could have been much better. After seeing this film, one would feel that "Bunny" which had a similar storyline was a classic in this genre. Well, that is Rachha for you folks.

I have to admit this, what a film! If I had no brains, this definitely would have been a classic. Thank god for I am still sane and haven't lost it yet! Firstly, I'd like to know if the director Sampath Nandi is an educated man. If so, is he from this generation, or is he re-living in his after life?? Cos in my opinion, no sensible man would try to make such kind of dumb-ass pathetic movie. The story made no absolute sense, and the screenplay was horrendous. The best part for me was when, out of the blue, our villain arranges for traps and Ninja warriors in a jungle in AP, minutes after discovering where our hero is. I mean how did he even do that?? Wow!! Ram Charan, where do I even start?? OK, his dances are pretty good, but someone needs to tell this moron (spare my words), that his dances alone are not going to make him a mega power star or what ever he's called. Trust me, if he weren't Chiranjeevi's son (who happens to be one of my favorite "actors"), this guy wouldn't even get to be hero's sidekick. Maghadeera was a hit because of Rajamouli, not this jackass. The whole cast was absolutely wasted. Senior artists like Bramhanadam, Ali, Kota, Geeta, Mukesh Rushi, Nassar all looked like idiots. Cinematography by Sameer Reddy was alright (thank god for that), but editing by Gowtham Raju was pathetic. It's the worst editing I've seen so far, for the scene changed on most occasions even without the artiste completing his or her dialogue. Dialogues bu Paruchri Brothers are a disaster. And music?? It was a relief, trust me, to have songs barging in into the script without any reason. Except for "Vaana Vaana" song, the rest were alright (Even third grade remixes are better than the one used in the movie). Overall, a disaster. If this film is declared a hit (which I believe it is), I can't imagine what will happen to the Telugu industry in the future.
