“Narcotics is a dirty business” is an iconic dialogue from the Mohanlal movie Irupatham Noottandu. The dialogue was featured again in the recent Mollywood thriller Lucifer.This line connects with all the Mohanlal fans and gets u goosebumps.The Godfather team didnt even understand or tried understanding this iconic line .This is one among the million mistakes in the so called LUCIFER remake which makes you think that the Godfather is a failed remake of a great mass polictical thriller.
This is going to offend some people but the main reason why chiranjeevi and most of the Telugu stars are doing these formalaic cinema is the audience. Even in the recent interview with Anupama Chopra, he was asked about the role and he said mohanlal is more of a versatile actor but for his case he says that the audience wants him to do the same kinda of cinema and he also says that he just feels like taking a different direction and it makes sense because if you take mohanlal's filmography and chiranjeevi filmography, mohanlal has Done a wide variety of roles but chiranjeevi is limited to a particular kind of cinema maybe apart from a few exceptions. So i wish the actors over there just don't stick to the same kind of cinema just because the audience wants it.
Yup whenever he has done some good films which r not mass masala they gained praises for him but they didn't do well commercially. So after a fail he comes with the most masala film and those r hits
Will you take the responsibility of the losses that their film will face if they go against the taste of their fans? It's very easy to give precept but you need to have enough balls when it comes to set an example especially when it comes to compensating or reinforcing someone's effort with money.
mohanlal is much more than he looks. his quite demeanor is actually feels more logical and rationale and ultimately more relatedtable . i m not his fan and hardly watch kerala movies but he usually take me by surprise how much sense he makes
Its not wrong as long as we are enjoying it. I personally enjoyed the movie, loved those slow motion hero elevations, at the end of the day we all know nothings real. There is no right or wrong in a movie, what matters is if the audience are enjoying it or not. ( unless the content is illegal as per law )
What makes Lucifer so special is that the writer Murali Gopi carefully given his characters different layers which can be analysed and defined from different levels. Each glance of Mohanlal in Lucifer has various elements of mystery, and it also has its own depth. The introduction of Zayed Masood (Prithviraj), was totally unexpected for the audience. Other speciality of Malayalam Lucifer is that its characters had their own story to tell.
What's also beautifully etched out is that each character whom went out of the limb to wrong someone were met with the consequences. Everyone from Bimal, Varma, Aloshy! It so well developed!

Lucifer is a multi layered saga addresses 1) the biblical story of Lucifer 2) Theories on Gandhi family 3) conspiracy theories 4) War btwn Evil Vs Evil 5) secret society 6) drug cartels Etc....But Godfather felt like spoon feeding and feels like a usual Telugu masala movie
Actually I didint like the item song in lucifer. But I saw an interview if prithviraj and he said It was an important thing in the storyline because the climax was a mixture of all bad things. He said everything evil comes at one spot like sex, lust,money,violence and there a new avatar LUCIFER emerges in a black shirt. After some research I watched the movie again in terms of illuminality concept and it made sense.
If u look closely you can see many hidden details in that single item songs. There you can see a owl face where behind Mohanlal is sitting. Obvious jab to illuminati the hidden society. Then in that item song there is a shot where there is a semi nude pick of a dancer or something and under it the lights such a way that it looks like dark candles lit. A symbolism of devil worship.
I don't think it still makes sense. The item song was disgusting. They always say this guy is biggest evil,, but he is not going to turn evil or never was.
There was a sincerity in Lucifer which I just couldn’t see in this one. The layers to the characters offered there were refreshing. From Vivek Oberoi to Tovino Thomas all were absolutely phenomenal in the original. Godfather definitely misses the mark baring a few good moments. I think it’s a very evident fact that star power just works to a small minimal extent and doesn’t ensure a long term success. Ps. Jammy should do an episode of outrageous songs with the classic delivery of his! Hilarious 😂
Remaking Malayalam movies is not an easy task. Malayalam industry doesn't depend on making formulaic movies. Rather their films have always been known for its realist cinema. These films are more popular for their substance rather than the star power. But in tollywood, people have always seen their stars growing in a typical masala entertainers/ commerical template. Very few telugu experiments found limelight, as mass number of people prefer their stars always in Action, typical slo-mo shots than acting in good dramas.
I think Malayalam Mass films are still being made. If I most recently look at Mohanlal's Aarattu or even a young actor like Roshan Mathew doing Night Drive. It's just that more Malayalam actors are willing to take risks vs Telugu stars whom would rather conform to formula
@@TriedRefusedProductions Aaraattu was a joke and Roshan's mass could've worked if the context and Anna Ben's acting was better. Mass movies may work here in Kerala if executed right. KGF was heavily appreciated by the audience of Kerala. Also, Bheeshma Parvam was a huge success.
@@TriedRefusedProductions Exactly! The risk taking notion is not so popular around tollywood. They would rather have win-win situation than the other way around. But at the end of the day, its the audience perspective for every respective industry that changes the result. With the star image of chiranjeevi and pawan kalyan garu you can flip any good drama's like Ayyappanum Koshiyum and Lucifer in a masala retelling of the same and find success. This is not me rubbing my opinion, you can look at the BMS rating of both films comparatively!!
@@kalyanmulakala7189 Don't put Ak and Lucifer together, AK is far better but you know Lucifer is the top grosser because of it's commercial nature with very obvious elevation scenes
Mass Masala movies like Pulimurugan and Lucifer (It's a Multilayered movie though) are also made in Malayalam and struck gold in business. But the taste is different here, the Telugu style logicless action scenes are considered over the top but Pulimurugan is an exception since that film succeeded in making people believe that hero is that much strong (Like in Hollywood superhero movies' groundwork)
Mohanlal's facial expression, Prithviraj's aura and Vivek's Evil persona in Lucifer can never be matched.. Lucifer too celebrated their stars, the difference being that they celebrated Stephen/Ab'raam whereas Godfather celebrates Chiranjeevi. Waiting for Lucifer Part- 2 (Empuraan)
Even if they did the same material and each character brought their own flair, it would have been fun but they really put extra tadka on everyones presence outside the film
@@TriedRefusedProductions The thing he doesn't want to do same formula but he gets such kind of scripts and also he's worried he may not satisfy his fan base. The last song is placed just to please his audience
I must say this, Lucifer was not just a typical mass masala entertainer it really dealt with many conspiracy theories which even includes the likes of illuminati. But you can't apply the same formula everywhere so the tonal shift in Godfather is understandable. As a standalone movie it may work ,but if you compare it with the original there are some flaws
I actually highly recommend you watch Thani Oruvan, one of the two movies originally written & directed by Mohan Raja. Pls don't let his filmography fool you; it's actually one of the best cat&mouse thrillers I've ever seen!
Agree .... I was not happy when realised that Mohan switched to Telugu cinema after terrific Tamil thriller "Thani Oruvan" .... Tamil commercial cinema , barring a few exceptions , are wonderfully restrained in terms of mass content
Thani oruvan is really a masterpiece but I think it only worked due arvind swamy. Jayam Ravi alone couldn't have pulled it off I became fan of arvind more than jayam Ravi at the end of the film. He acted so well that I thought Ravi was struggling to match him.
@@nirisha2108 oh yes and that decision was made by mohan raja and its not the first time he brought back someone who left the industry for long, nadiya moidu in M kumran , he brought her back after a long gap
I am Telugu, but Lucifer with Mohanlal was just on a different level. The original Mollywood film had the story, the actors, the emotions so perfectly scripted. The Godfather was just a disappointment for me because Lucifer was such a perfect movie that I thought they could at least remake 70% of the superb storyline but they changed so much of the crucial parts that the story seemed different and they put way to much emphasis on megastars stardom. Godfather definitely a movie for only for the die hard megastar fans. I’m really hoping for a Lucifer 2 that continues with the same storyline. Honestly could make a whole series because Lucifer’s past is still a huge mystery.
This is more a Chiranjeevi movie than a Sallu bhai movie. And when it comes to cameos, Suriya's cameo in Vikram is the best. It was just perfect in every way.
@@TriedRefusedProductions You just kept poor sallu bhai name on the thumbnail just too get more views when it's not even his film☹️☹️,it's totally not fair
1.Mohan Raja is a very experienced director . Prithviraj debuted his direction career with Lucifer. Prithiviraj's skills as a director single handedly challenges Mohan Raja's years of experience- how? just look at scene by scenes of both movies. 2.Telugu audience prefer only masala movies. They just want to go to the movies watch those masala's , get excited that's it. character building , story line etc is of no much importance over there. They need songs, they need dance , they need mass entry and dialogues and mass fights and movie becomes 3 hours. Lucifer on the other hand is focused on character building , a dark themed movie that's based on conspiracy theories. From the beginning of the movie to the end , it slowly builds a character of lucifer, who is actually not a guardian angel , but a demon who is the lord of hell who is at war with his lesser rivals. Just like the stories of the 70 dukes of hell and biblical references. Hence masala was of little to no importance in Lucifer Malayalam. 3.Zayed Masood's entry was a revelation to audience ( it was hidden to audience until release of the movie) . It was not a fan celebrated entry ( like Salman Khan in Godfather) . The relation between Zayed Masood and Stephen nedumpally is shown as a loyal slave / master relationship. Mohanlal's face remains' mysteriously serious & sharp looks when he sees zayed masood. There is no exchange of happiness or sadness between Stephen and Zayed when they look at each other ( just like how a master looks at his slave) . However Chiranjeevi is shown smiling when he sees Salman Khan and both go into bhai bhai mode. That degraded the character intensity for both these characters. 4.No other Indian Actor can replicate the facial expressions that Mohanlal can do. Throughout the movie , Mohanlal's eyes speaks a lot rather than his words. He is an all knowing , omni potent being who knows about how bimal nair killed the 1st husband of priyadarshini, How PKR was poisoned by Bimal Nair and How he intend to build a drug empire , how aloshy was cheating him , etc etc. Mohanlal's expression is cold , mysterious. In the whole movie , there is only last scene where mohanlal was wearing a sunglasses . However Chiranjeevi is seen wearing sunglasses throughout the movie ( he cant replicate mohanlal's gestures with eyes, so hide it with sunglasses. WTH) In Summary , expectation from the Malayalam audience is very high despite the remuneration of casts & crew being very less compared to what is being offered in telugu and bollywood/ tolly wood movie industry. However , we get the best storyline, screen play and casting on a budget. My request to PAN India audience - Please don't remake and destroy such awesome movies.
I usually watch movies I love at least twice.. But even though I absolutely loved Lucifer- I was so scared of Vivek Oberoi's character that I havnt dared watching it again.. Even just thinking about it now reminds me of how monstrous his role was.. He was fantastic! I am not sure any remake of the movie could give such a vicious portrayal... It has always been difficult to remake Malayalam movies.. They are so deep-rooted within their culture.. Perhaps I'll watch Godfather.. May be I'll be less scared of the Vivek Oberoi character once I watch the remake 😊
@@AjinJose137 There is a big difference between the devil and evil. Mohanlal's character Abram is an absolute devil who does some evil deeds and punishes greater evil. But Vivek Oberoi's character is pure evil. Who deserves to be punished by the devil.
Hahaha my mom too is scared of Vivek Oberoi in that movie especially that scene where Manju varrier confronts him and he accepts and saying he will do it again 😬😬😬 even I had trouble watching it.
I literally saw a promotion video where Chiranjeevi say's " I watched Lucifer and wasn't impressed with the movie. I was thinking about who will adapt the film according to my image and satisfy me." This alone tells that even Chiranjeevi gaaru's own sensibilities are flawed and is still stuck in the 90s n early 2000s.
I just want to give the context that is Salman khan was eagerly willing to work with chiranjeevi. The core reason why this movie is pretty acceptable bcuz the story got that nativety of telugu and at the same it really in a way connects the political affairs happening Andra Pradesh.
When i see mohanlal Lucifer, he has an aura of mysterious intent. He reminds me of keysor soze from usual suspects, the audience is intrigued by Mysterious characters, it fascinates them. No one knows what their endgoal is. Plus Lucifer had a lot of Easter eggs in hinting about lluminati and the titular charcter "Lucifer" which again addas to the mysteriousness of mohanlal's character.
So i don't understand why most people are blaming Salman Khan when he has just an extended cameo. It's an out and out chiranjeevi movie. I'm sure he didn't do a good job, but really people can stoop so low to defend their favourite actor by blaming someone who wasn't even in 5% 9f the movie. This was the same problem with liger when people blamed ananya Pandey more than devarakonda when his acting was way more cringey than ananya's. 🤦🤦
Cuz it was the climax of the film!! Whatever you built up from the beginning of the movie has to be satisfied in the climax. Its like you are served a biriyani and for desert they give you dog shit. It ruins the entire experience. Salman performed the character in a very goofy way and tried to make it his movie whenever he came on screen. The director also has to be blamed for this but in salman's case, he probably had steamrolled the director over and did it the way he felt like doing it.
As Keralites, we know how real and powerful characterization forms the basic plot of Malayalam cinema. The remakes if made exactly like the original may work. These days everybody watches all regional movies so there's little hope for remakes.
Exactly! Prithviraj also said in a recent interview that in 5 years time people will watch the original on OTT with subtitles and remakes won't matter. I guess he got the timeline wrong, its already not working for some remakes like Vikram Vedha which has a slow BO performance since people have already watched it.
In the last interview Chiranjeevi said he wasn't satisfied with the original version of Lucifer and he has make the film much more bigger and better so i decided to watch the film , seriously it's a masala, over the top version of Lucifer I hope prithviraj won't sell the rights of second part and instead release the film in pan indian level
Now that I think about it. I know we all troll Salman Khan for simply just being a masala commercial hero. But now I think about it, he was actually very charismatic in Dabaang. I am not a bhai fan but damn I do miss those days! It’s okay if it’s commercial but at least Salman was charming and had wit in Dabaang. I want the old Salman back!
If you check scene by scene dabang is not that bad of a movie. It also had a really desi flavour to it. Most of the characters where fresh and fitted nicely in the story. The songs where hit as well. Dabang actually gave much more than it looks
@@jahanarakashem7011 nothing wrong with that. I am a writer and i am an admirer for craft. But going for Dabaang, I went with the expectations it was a masala film and it fulfilled those expecations. Unfortunately cannot say the same for Dabaang 2 & 3
@@VipinDas16 nani garu below average actor with no variation in dialogue delivery& acting... Only suitable for comedy & emotional scenes... Chiranjeevi is a legendary actor who achieved everything
From Laletta to Rajuetta to Vivek sir to Manju chechi to Tovino everything was just top noch and on point that's why Lucifer is a masterpiece which is lack in Godfather
Lucifer is not spoonfeeding us anything, it asks us to think and understand.. The sponsor of the party manappattil chandy was not introduced anywhere in the movie but still I know it is played by sunil sugatha... I think he was shown only at one time during funeral.
very unpopular opinion... Vivek oberoi is one of the great actors of bollywood ..but his issue with salman in the past really halted his progress and connection in the film industry ....I used to watch his movies like Sathiya and Yuva,...he killed it in all those romantic and villians roles too...he is damn good and should look to more on more content driven roles rather than part of crass movies
Now the rumor is Chiranjvivee sir is eyeing on remake of Bheeshma Parvwar..with all respect for the love of god and for the love of cinema hope such thing remains a rumor . Cant bear another calamity.
In lucifer saniya was manju warriers daughter. But in god father that character is nayantaras sister😂😂😂 telugu audience wont accept a big daughter for nayantara. This remake is an insult of Lucifer
@@Vadlasushanth5 will you kindly stop interfering everywhere with meaningless comments. Nani is a terrific actor and there's no doubt about it but this video is not about him it's about a film called God Father
Every thing feels better After watching something like adhipursh now I even feel deshdrohi and legend are good after watching that nursery rhyme vfx and animation teaser
Chiranjeevi is new balayya( cringe ) and venkatesh ( remakes) . Chiranjeevi used to be very charming in commercial movies back then his charm is missing now and I think he is not even taking his job seriously after re entry . Some might comment on his acting now before that watch his swayam krushi , Apadbhandavadu and Rudraveena . Jammy plss stay from telugu stars like Chiranjeevi , Venkatesh, Balakrishna, Nagarjuna ,Mahesh , Allu Arjun , pawan , Prabhas , NTR , Ram charan and their local telugu movies . Do review them when they are Pan india release ( that would be some what better than local masala movies ) . Since image of the Industry will form because of stars , the other good content coming from new age directors are being sidelined . If the stars are fine no one would have raised a finger on Telugu industry .
Took a multi layered story with developed characters and made it into a typical linear telugu mass masala movie.... One which telugu superstars were doing from long time
Thanks Godfather for making people realise that what an masterpiece Lucifer is!!! Initially when I watched Lucifer I was in awe and starstruck by mohanlal acting and I thought its a great tribute to the complete actor but I watched it again and again only to realise that there are layers and layers of story, character detailing and arc development. Also we need vivek Oberoi to act in more movies idk why he is banished from bollywood? He is a very talented actor. I hope to see him act in more movies.
Agree to every point except one. i had the same opinion for the song Raftara but the song grew on me when i watched it a again and again and the song is indeed Jyotsana best performances ever. i can assure the bhai can never do justice to any role let alone copying another role.
Here in Telugu cinema, the star heroes despite their potential are more or less struck in a vicious cycle of stardom and fandom. They think appealing to their core fan base(just 20-30% of total audience) is enough to pull a movie. But they ignore the general audience who just want good and fresh cinematic experience. They are also kept out of feedback by the ‘bhajan gangs’ around who constantly beat their trumpet for their own vested interests. Unfortunately, this excess bhajan has also entered into the film in the form of some heavy praising scenes which are so cringe for a normal audience.
For me the most outrageous part was when Chiravjeevi stated that Lucifer's script was "unsatisfactory" and "lagging". Shows with what little interst he watched it. Does he want flat plots for movie? Or does he think his audience are not smart enough to grasp the original plot? Because Lucifer has such a good mix of class and mass in it, it gave me goosebumps and has repeat watch value. Maybe he should understand that "Masala mass" and over the top sentimental scenes are not the only factors that makes a movie entertaining.
It reminded me of aamir khan saying memento was boring and or he didn't understand it so the remake one made sense. Wow no wonder writers and filmmakers don't come up with much better scripts and their potential isn't encouraged at all. Rather remake culture is the most respected.
With respective telugu audience yes its lagging, if they copy exactly like original it will be flop, even Lucifer released in telugu its didn't't do well in theaters.
What people dunno is how amazing Chiranjeevi actually is. His movies used to be so different and entertaining as well. Miss the old Chiranjeevi truly. Hope he invests in better writers and does an amazing original movie.

In 2025, Shahrukh Khan will start playing character roles to become the new age. Amitabh Bachchan Aamir Khan will concentrate on filmmaking. Salman Khan will still continue romancing girls who are old enough to be his daughter.
Hehehehe this was expected😆 Think of Mohanlal as the clint Eastwood,or stone cold Steve Austin of Malayalam cinema. Trying to mimic even a fraction of his charisma is ridiculously hard,even for the great actors. The thing about lalettan is that he doesn't act with his voice and his eyes or face only,but with his entire body. NOBODY,not even Mammootty is good at this physical expressive acting as much as lalettan in Malayalam cinema. So ofcourse chiranjeevi is not gonna live up to it. I like the dude, but he's not lalettan.
Just like Mohanlal is great in physical acting Mammootty is great in voice modulation and better at enacting different slangs. Both have their own strengths. That's why we say the names of both these actors whenever there is a list of top actors. TRUE gems.

Though they are doing remakes But bollywood is also trying new concept rather than. Typical movies such as , attack , runway 34 , chup, bhediya, brahmastra, fighter , ram setu, ganpath , immortal ashwatama,
luifer was dubbed into telugu and released along with malayalam version. Also it was the first film post lockdown in telugu to be streamed on amazon prime and it got millions of views. So chiru just made masala version of it
This is expected from super star movies. Directors make movies for fans and deviate from story telling and tries to provide more screen presence for hero's which is the issue here. Tonivo speech in lucifer was real goosebumps, never though that would be removed.
While we notice the south remakes being made by Bollywood , why don't we also point out Tamil & Malayalam movies being remade extensively by the Telugu film industry....?
Though I’m a big fan of Chiranjeevi, I don’t want him to do any remakes and giving silly reasons as justifications.before a great commercial hero who excelled in dance, fights& comedy, he’s an actor with great nuances when it comes to emotional scenes in his old movies. He just still caught himself and his son in the commercial potboiler movies era. Hoping for the content oriented movies in the future
Wondering how it will turn out when 'L2Empuraan' releases, given, many of the characters and scenes from 'Lucifer' were omitted on creating 'Godfather'.. Did they consider this case while making this film, that how will the remaining story would turn out to be, if they are in any plan to do a 'Godfather -2'.?
Hi Jammy, I do follow your reviews and I really like how sensibly you put across your views. Having said that, with all due respect, I want to give my 2cents. “Telugu Audience” sensibilities are very different from rest of the audience across the country. I watched Lucifer and I really liked it … but I’m not sure my father’s generation in Telugu speaking states would like Lucifer as they like Godfather. It’s not that “Chiranjeevi” did not try variations. He did movies like Rudraveena, Apathbandhavadu where one can witness his acting prowess. But they didn’t do well at box office though the movies got national awards. The audience expect large than life characters from Chiranjeevi sir. At the end of the day, films are business and they want to do well. And I think when the wider range of audience have liked the movie and appreciate it (the movie is doing very well in Telugu states), they must have enjoyed the movie and it should not really bother us. You see, the movies are not just for the millennials, they should cater to a wide range of audience from different backgrounds. On a fun note, my in-laws hate art movies- doesn’t mean they have no taste. They just like different genre of films .
Also you should watch #Thanioruvan 🔥it's such a brilliant film. One of the finest movies ever made. Also Mohan Raja announced there's gonna be Thani oruvan 2. Hope he makes it as exciting as the first part
Was not expecting GodFather to be better than Lucifer, but this was a good timepass watch on its own. I'm saying so because watching it with a packed show at Gaiety really elevated my enjoyment. Chiranjeevi really lent his own to the role and I did like Satyadev and the way he enacted his role. The other thing i liked was the background score, it was pretty effective and suited the tone of the film. Also, if people ever wonder if Salman's stardom is declining, they should make a trip to Gaiety and watch his films with a packed show.
Bullshit. this crap cannot be compared with Lucifer. it's just a masala film with some superstars that's it. I don't know why people enjoy these shitty remakes. makes me vomit
Godfather is shit compared to Lucifer. But this one is your opinion. And if Salman's stardom is not decreasing, then you don't have to go to Gaiety to experience his power. Salman is loosing his fans fast.
This chiranjeevi has audacity to shoot remakes and then tell we have overtaken orginal movie is just 😂😂clown statements.remakes should be done to their nativity is true but this telgu nativity is comedy and has mass masala which is srsly damage to orginal lucifer.why they have made mass moments with masala fights where lucifer has its standards in its screenplay dilogue and wtf is that alpacino song 😂hilarious ppl and hero what I thought 😂
Chiranjeevi is a phenomenal actor nd complete artist. I wish he now picks roles that satisfy the actor in him and doesn't fall prey to formula in the name of fan service. His versatility is mindblowing, and I wish we see that side of him, because he really has a lot to offer. Bring back the Chiranjeevi of Chantabbai, Swayamkrushi, and Shankar Dada please 🙏
Compared to previous movies of chiranjeevi, acting wise he was far more restraint and calm which really helped the film. It's not that bad as people claim it.
One thing: Actors like Chiranjeevi, Mahesh Babu do this type of films because audience wants them to see in this type of films. People criticize MB for doing films like SVP, Sarileru Neekevaru but this films inspite of being mediocre commercial flicks Earned huge money in the box office. While Great Critically acclaimed Films like 1: Nenokkadine, Athadu didn't. Many believed that after the flop of 1:Nenokaddine film(directed by Sukumar), MB opted out from Pushpa inspite of already signing the film earlier ( Pushpa was also directed by Sukumar)
Malayalam cinema levels cannot be touched in terms of acting, direction, screenplay, editing and technical prowess. Telugu and other industries only thrive on big budgets to attract movie goers. Connoisseurs of good cinema will always be disappointed after watching any other language after Malayalam.
I initially thought satyadev was about to play the role of tovino... But viveks shoes are hard to fill for him... Would have been better if he had played tovinos role... Edit -also vivek could have played the antagonist in telugu as well... Can't see a better choice beyond
Lucifer was a masterpiece script, dialogues, frame by frame was very rich and so layered story best actors best direction and bgm & dop were absolutely fantastic... In Telugu nothing only gimmicks for megastar and comedy piece sallu.... Vfx very bad.... Missiles from the bike 😂😂😂😂 I think this movie only for Telugu die hard fans of megastar 🤭🤭🤭
JAMMY by bro, I was expecting review videos of movies like Everything everywhere all at once, Dhoka and many more you have left. Please bring them up too. Not many people are interested in movies like godfather because they already know the result of it.
I am from Andhra Pradesh, for me personally it is the audience which make all the difference..We as Telugu audience would like to see our star heroes (with huge following like Chiranjeevi, Ram Charan,NTR,Mahesh) with all the possible elevations on the screen..Mahesh has done some good movies like Khaleja,Nijam,Nani in past but they were failure at box office..because audience+especially die hard fans) couldn't just see their hero in normal movie..that is why top heroes in most of their films make sure that these kind of elevation scenes are included
LUCIFER is a kinda like a coin with 2 sides..one is a commercial movie side to satisfy the masses and normal audience while the other much more darker political gangster drama side with a multilayered screenplay.. The hidden detailing in movie varies from an antihero evil stephen to qureshi abraham,member of illuminaty.. Hope the 2nd side would be detailed more in EMPURAAN..
Ramajogayya Sastry is an amazing poet who not only has his way with words but also could write some deep and poetic expressions. He has songs like Dhivara (the telugu portions) to his credit. Imagine what brief he must have got to write things like Al Pachino tell me know.
Vivek Oberoi Was actually the one who elevated the Lucifer, its not that often another industry's Star comes as Villian in Mollywood. Lucifer also had an underlying illuminati element . Telugu version is like an animated version of the movie made for kids.
“Narcotics is a dirty business” is an iconic dialogue from the Mohanlal movie Irupatham Noottandu. The dialogue was featured again in the recent Mollywood thriller Lucifer.This line connects with all the Mohanlal fans and gets u goosebumps.The Godfather team didnt even understand or tried understanding this iconic line .This is one among the million mistakes in the so called LUCIFER remake which makes you think that the Godfather is a failed remake of a great mass polictical thriller.
This is going to offend some people but the main reason why chiranjeevi and most of the Telugu stars are doing these formalaic cinema is the audience. Even in the recent interview with Anupama Chopra, he was asked about the role and he said mohanlal is more of a versatile actor but for his case he says that the audience wants him to do the same kinda of cinema and he also says that he just feels like taking a different direction and it makes sense because if you take mohanlal's filmography and chiranjeevi filmography, mohanlal has Done a wide variety of roles but chiranjeevi is limited to a particular kind of cinema maybe apart from a few exceptions. So i wish the actors over there just don't stick to the same kind of cinema just because the audience wants it.
THAT'S WHY NANI GAARU IS NUMBER ONE ♥
Yup whenever he has done some good films which r not mass masala they gained praises for him but they didn't do well commercially. So after a fail he comes with the most masala film and those r hits
Will you take the responsibility of the losses that their film will face if they go against the taste of their fans? It's very easy to give precept but you need to have enough balls when it comes to set an example especially when it comes to compensating or reinforcing someone's effort with money.
mohanlal is much more than he looks. his quite demeanor is actually feels more logical and rationale and ultimately more relatedtable . i m not his fan and hardly watch kerala movies but he usually take me by surprise how much sense he makes
Its not wrong as long as we are enjoying it. I personally enjoyed the movie, loved those slow motion hero elevations, at the end of the day we all know nothings real.
There is no right or wrong in a movie, what matters is if the audience are enjoying it or not. ( unless the content is illegal as per law )
What makes Lucifer so special is that the writer Murali Gopi carefully given his characters different layers which can be analysed and defined from different levels. Each glance of Mohanlal in Lucifer has various elements of mystery, and it also has its own depth. The introduction of Zayed Masood (Prithviraj), was totally unexpected for the audience. Other speciality of Malayalam Lucifer is that its characters had their own story to tell.
What's also beautifully etched out is that each character whom went out of the limb to wrong someone were met with the consequences. Everyone from Bimal, Varma, Aloshy! It so well developed!

3) conspiracy theories
4) War btwn Evil Vs Evil
5) secret society
6) drug cartels
Etc....But Godfather felt like spoon feeding and feels like a usual Telugu masala movie
Very true
Yep 👌
7) media
That secret society is illuminati
What are theories of ghandi family?
Actually I didint like the item song in lucifer. But I saw an interview if prithviraj and he said It was an important thing in the storyline because the climax was a mixture of all bad things. He said everything evil comes at one spot like sex, lust,money,violence and there a new avatar LUCIFER emerges in a black shirt. After some research I watched the movie again in terms of illuminality concept and it made sense.
Exactly man
An amalgamation of all vices and evil, well put
If u look closely you can see many hidden details in that single item songs. There you can see a owl face where behind Mohanlal is sitting. Obvious jab to illuminati the hidden society. Then in that item song there is a shot where there is a semi nude pick of a dancer or something and under it the lights such a way that it looks like dark candles lit. A symbolism of devil worship.
I don't think it still makes sense. The item song was disgusting. They always say this guy is biggest evil,, but he is not going to turn evil or never was.
@@A123-u7z biased
There was a sincerity in Lucifer which I just couldn’t see in this one. The layers to the characters offered there were refreshing.
From Vivek Oberoi to Tovino Thomas all were absolutely phenomenal in the original.
Godfather definitely misses the mark baring a few good moments.
I think it’s a very evident fact that star power just works to a small minimal extent and doesn’t ensure a long term success.
Ps. Jammy should do an episode of outrageous songs with the classic delivery of his! Hilarious 😂
I HAVE HUGE RESPECT FOR CHIRANJEEVI GAARU BUT NANI GAARU IS NUMBER ONE ♥
Remaking Malayalam movies is not an easy task. Malayalam industry doesn't depend on making formulaic movies. Rather their films have always been known for its realist cinema. These films are more popular for their substance rather than the star power. But in tollywood, people have always seen their stars growing in a typical masala entertainers/ commerical template.
Very few telugu experiments found limelight, as mass number of people prefer their stars always in Action, typical slo-mo shots than acting in good dramas.
I think Malayalam Mass films are still being made. If I most recently look at Mohanlal's Aarattu or even a young actor like Roshan Mathew doing Night Drive. It's just that more Malayalam actors are willing to take risks vs Telugu stars whom would rather conform to formula
@@TriedRefusedProductions Aaraattu was a joke and Roshan's mass could've worked if the context and Anna Ben's acting was better.
Mass movies may work here in Kerala if executed right. KGF was heavily appreciated by the audience of Kerala.
Also, Bheeshma Parvam was a huge success.
@@TriedRefusedProductions Exactly! The risk taking notion is not so popular around tollywood. They would rather have win-win situation than the other way around. But at the end of the day, its the audience perspective for every respective industry that changes the result. With the star image of chiranjeevi and pawan kalyan garu you can flip any good drama's like Ayyappanum Koshiyum and Lucifer in a masala retelling of the same and find success. This is not me rubbing my opinion, you can look at the BMS rating of both films comparatively!!
@@kalyanmulakala7189 Don't put Ak and Lucifer together, AK is far better but you know Lucifer is the top grosser because of it's commercial nature with very obvious elevation scenes
Mass Masala movies like Pulimurugan and Lucifer (It's a Multilayered movie though) are also made in Malayalam and struck gold in business. But the taste is different here, the Telugu style logicless action scenes are considered over the top but Pulimurugan is an exception since that film succeeded in making people believe that hero is that much strong (Like in Hollywood superhero movies' groundwork)
Mohanlal's facial expression, Prithviraj's aura and Vivek's Evil persona in Lucifer can never be matched..
Lucifer too celebrated their stars, the difference being that they celebrated Stephen/Ab'raam whereas Godfather celebrates Chiranjeevi.
Waiting for Lucifer Part- 2 (Empuraan)
Even if they did the same material and each character brought their own flair, it would have been fun but they really put extra tadka on everyones presence outside the film
Mohanlal is the real devil, Not Vivek . Watch once again and check every dialogue in the movie. Mohanalal is the lucifer not vivek
More than u god father team is waiting for Empuraan
@Tried and Refused,well you can obviously expect that when it's a Telugu movie,they would put some tadka and masala also to cater to their audience...
The originality and natural act in Malayalam movies can't be replaced 💪
I think Chiranjeevi also is in a prison of only being compelled to do formulaic cinema. Limiting an otherwise seasoned actor!
I am Telugu person but I agree with you
@@TriedRefusedProductions Agreed
@@TriedRefusedProductions The thing he doesn't want to do same formula but he gets such kind of scripts and also he's worried he may not satisfy his fan base. The last song is placed just to please his audience

I must say this, Lucifer was not just a typical mass masala entertainer it really dealt with many conspiracy theories which even includes the likes of illuminati. But you can't apply the same formula everywhere so the tonal shift in Godfather is understandable. As a standalone movie it may work ,but if you compare it with the original there are some flaws
Many flaws man. There is not even an attempt at channelising depth. It's just a celebration: which is fine but a bummer when you know the potential!

I actually highly recommend you watch Thani Oruvan, one of the two movies originally written & directed by Mohan Raja. Pls don't let his filmography fool you; it's actually one of the best cat&mouse thrillers I've ever seen!
Will be definitely watching!
Agree .... I was not happy when realised that Mohan switched to Telugu cinema after terrific Tamil thriller "Thani Oruvan" .... Tamil commercial cinema , barring a few exceptions , are wonderfully restrained in terms of mass content
Thani oruvan is really a masterpiece but I think it only worked due arvind swamy. Jayam Ravi alone couldn't have pulled it off
I became fan of arvind more than jayam Ravi at the end of the film. He acted so well that I thought Ravi was struggling to match him.
@@vishi9842 true, what a wonderful comeback it be was for Aravind Swamy.
@@nirisha2108 oh yes and that decision was made by mohan raja and its not the first time he brought back someone who left the industry for long, nadiya moidu in M kumran , he brought her back after a long gap
I am Telugu, but Lucifer with Mohanlal was just on a different level. The original Mollywood film had the story, the actors, the emotions so perfectly scripted. The Godfather was just a disappointment for me because Lucifer was such a perfect movie that I thought they could at least remake 70% of the superb storyline but they changed so much of the crucial parts that the story seemed different and they put way to much emphasis on megastars stardom. Godfather definitely a movie for only for the die hard megastar fans. I’m really hoping for a Lucifer 2 that continues with the same storyline. Honestly could make a whole series because Lucifer’s past is still a huge mystery.
This is more a Chiranjeevi movie than a Sallu bhai movie. And when it comes to cameos, Suriya's cameo in Vikram is the best. It was just perfect in every way.

4:43 I always enjoy when Jammy explains bizzare lyrics 😅😅
I ENJOY NANI GAARU'S EXPRESSIONS ONLY ♥
1.Mohan Raja is a very experienced director . Prithviraj debuted his direction career with Lucifer. Prithiviraj's skills as a director single handedly challenges Mohan Raja's years of experience- how? just look at scene by scenes of both movies.
2.Telugu audience prefer only masala movies. They just want to go to the movies watch those masala's , get excited that's it. character building , story line etc is of no much importance over there. They need songs, they need dance , they need mass entry and dialogues and mass fights and movie becomes 3 hours. Lucifer on the other hand is focused on character building , a dark themed movie that's based on conspiracy theories. From the beginning of the movie to the end , it slowly builds a character of lucifer, who is actually not a guardian angel , but a demon who is the lord of hell who is at war with his lesser rivals. Just like the stories of the 70 dukes of hell and biblical references. Hence masala was of little to no importance in Lucifer Malayalam.
3.Zayed Masood's entry was a revelation to audience ( it was hidden to audience until release of the movie) . It was not a fan celebrated entry ( like Salman Khan in Godfather) . The relation between Zayed Masood and Stephen nedumpally is shown as a loyal slave / master relationship. Mohanlal's face remains' mysteriously serious & sharp looks when he sees zayed masood. There is no exchange of happiness or sadness between Stephen and Zayed when they look at each other ( just like how a master looks at his slave) . However Chiranjeevi is shown smiling when he sees Salman Khan and both go into bhai bhai mode. That degraded the character intensity for both these characters.
4.No other Indian Actor can replicate the facial expressions that Mohanlal can do. Throughout the movie , Mohanlal's eyes speaks a lot rather than his words. He is an all knowing , omni potent being who knows about how bimal nair killed the 1st husband of priyadarshini, How PKR was poisoned by Bimal Nair and How he intend to build a drug empire , how aloshy was cheating him , etc etc. Mohanlal's expression is cold , mysterious. In the whole movie , there is only last scene where mohanlal was wearing a sunglasses . However Chiranjeevi is seen wearing sunglasses throughout the movie ( he cant replicate mohanlal's gestures with eyes, so hide it with sunglasses. WTH)
In Summary , expectation from the Malayalam audience is very high despite the remuneration of casts & crew being very less compared to what is being offered in telugu and bollywood/ tolly wood movie industry. However , we get the best storyline, screen play and casting on a budget.
My request to PAN India audience - Please don't remake and destroy such awesome movies.
I usually watch movies I love at least twice.. But even though I absolutely loved Lucifer- I was so scared of Vivek Oberoi's character that I havnt dared watching it again.. Even just thinking about it now reminds me of how monstrous his role was.. He was fantastic! I am not sure any remake of the movie could give such a vicious portrayal... It has always been difficult to remake Malayalam movies.. They are so deep-rooted within their culture.. Perhaps I'll watch Godfather.. May be I'll be less scared of the Vivek Oberoi character once I watch the remake 😊
Actually the real devil is Mohanlal not Vivek, You can see that in coming installment L2 & L3
@@AjinJose137 There is a big difference between the devil and evil. Mohanlal's character Abram is an absolute devil who does some evil deeds and punishes greater evil. But Vivek Oberoi's character is pure evil. Who deserves to be punished by the devil.
Once you are scared of anything just watch Sallu in this and watch it dissipate

I literally saw a promotion video where Chiranjeevi say's " I watched Lucifer and wasn't impressed with the movie. I was thinking about who will adapt the film according to my image and satisfy me." This alone tells that even Chiranjeevi gaaru's own sensibilities are flawed and is still stuck in the 90s n early 2000s.

I just want to give the context that is Salman khan was eagerly willing to work with chiranjeevi. The core reason why this movie is pretty acceptable bcuz the story got that nativety of telugu and at the same it really in a way connects the political affairs happening Andra Pradesh.

1:17 Mohan Raja also made 2 great original films: Thani Oruvan/Dhruva, Velaikkarn
When i see mohanlal Lucifer, he has an aura of mysterious intent. He reminds me of keysor soze from usual suspects, the audience is intrigued by Mysterious characters, it fascinates them. No one knows what their endgoal is.
Plus Lucifer had a lot of Easter eggs in hinting about lluminati and the titular charcter "Lucifer" which again addas to the mysteriousness of mohanlal's character.

So i don't understand why most people are blaming Salman Khan when he has just an extended cameo. It's an out and out chiranjeevi movie. I'm sure he didn't do a good job, but really people can stoop so low to defend their favourite actor by blaming someone who wasn't even in 5% 9f the movie.

@@Abhi-tp6dk true that's, what we love salman khan to do. We enjoy sallu bhai doing so 🔥🔥
Cuz it was the climax of the film!! Whatever you built up from the beginning of the movie has to be satisfied in the climax. Its like you are served a biriyani and for desert they give you dog shit. It ruins the entire experience. Salman performed the character in a very goofy way and tried to make it his movie whenever he came on screen. The director also has to be blamed for this but in salman's case, he probably had steamrolled the director over and did it the way he felt like doing it.
Salman screenpresence 👍😍
As Keralites, we know how real and powerful characterization forms the basic plot of Malayalam cinema. The remakes if made exactly like the original may work. These days everybody watches all regional movies so there's little hope for remakes.
Exactly! Prithviraj also said in a recent interview that in 5 years time people will watch the original on OTT with subtitles and remakes won't matter.
I guess he got the timeline wrong, its already not working for some remakes like Vikram Vedha which has a slow BO performance since people have already watched it.

Jammy plss stay from telugu stars like Chiranjeevi , Venkatesh, Balakrishna, Nagarjuna ,Mahesh , Allu Arjun , pawan , Prabhas , NTR , Ram charan and their local telugu movies . Do review them when they are Pan india release ( that would be some what better than local masala movies ) . Since image of the Industry will form because of stars , the other good content coming from new age directors are being sidelined . If the stars are fine no one would have raised a finger on Telugu industry .
Took a multi layered story with developed characters and made it into a typical linear telugu mass masala movie.... One which telugu superstars were doing from long time
And yet you watch those movies. I wonder why? 😊
Thanks Godfather for making people realise that what an masterpiece Lucifer is!!! Initially when I watched Lucifer I was in awe and starstruck by mohanlal acting and I thought its a great tribute to the complete actor but I watched it again and again only to realise that there are layers and layers of story, character detailing and arc development.
Also we need vivek Oberoi to act in more movies idk why he is banished from bollywood?
He is a very talented actor. I hope to see him act in more movies.
Agree to every point except one. i had the same opinion for the song Raftara but the song grew on me when i watched it a again and again and the song is indeed Jyotsana best performances ever. i can assure the bhai can never do justice to any role let alone copying another role.
First meme actually is in sync with the current situation of Salman Khan 's career...
Here in Telugu cinema, the star heroes despite their potential are more or less struck in a vicious cycle of stardom and fandom. They think appealing to their core fan base(just 20-30% of total audience) is enough to pull a movie. But they ignore the general audience who just want good and fresh cinematic experience. They are also kept out of feedback by the ‘bhajan gangs’ around who constantly beat their trumpet for their own vested interests. Unfortunately, this excess bhajan has also entered into the film in the form of some heavy praising scenes which are so cringe for a normal audience.
For me the most outrageous part was when Chiravjeevi stated that Lucifer's script was "unsatisfactory" and "lagging".
Shows with what little interst he watched it.
Does he want flat plots for movie? Or does he think his audience are not smart enough to grasp the original plot?
Because Lucifer has such a good mix of class and mass in it, it gave me goosebumps and has repeat watch value.
Maybe he should understand that "Masala mass" and over the top sentimental scenes are not the only factors that makes a movie entertaining.
It reminded me of aamir khan saying memento was boring and or he didn't understand it so the remake one made sense. Wow no wonder writers and filmmakers don't come up with much better scripts and their potential isn't encouraged at all. Rather remake culture is the most respected.
With respective telugu audience yes its lagging, if they copy exactly like original it will be flop, even Lucifer released in telugu its didn't't do well in theaters.
What people dunno is how amazing Chiranjeevi actually is. His movies used to be so different and entertaining as well. Miss the old Chiranjeevi truly. Hope he invests in better writers and does an amazing original movie.

Need to feel sorry for prithvira sukumaran.. both the brothers have tried there best to change the soul of some great movies and made fun of them....i wish he should never give the remake rights to telugu producers again..
Lalettan can’t be replaced ❤
Chiranjeevi is sincere but the main problem with this film is entirely its storytelling!
EVEN NANI GAARU CAN'T BE REPLACED ♥
@@TriedRefusedProductions Wait for vedhalam remake the director of that film is a meme material
Yes vedhalam, veeram itself worst films. Even ajith fans regret d movie. Don't know y they r remaking that😂😂
@@TriedRefusedProductionsMohanlal is a legend bro more than a star he is a brilliant actor I recommend you to watch just two movies of Lalettan like Vanaprestham and Thanmathra you come to realise how great actor he is been Iam pretty sure you only watched very few of his movies which is more popular outside kerala recently like Drishyam so still you definitely understood the greatness of Mohanlal as an actor like we do.He is legend can't compared with any of thes masala stars
In 2025,
Shahrukh Khan will start playing character roles to become the new age. Amitabh Bachchan
Aamir Khan will concentrate on filmmaking.
Salman Khan will still continue romancing girls who are old enough to be his daughter.
He didn't have heroine in this film and also in his previous film
@@gamerop2196 no but I am telling about his reputation.
I might be wrong but Salman Khan will never play a role similar to Aamir Khan in Dangal.
Hehehehe this was expected😆
Think of Mohanlal as the clint Eastwood,or stone cold Steve Austin of Malayalam cinema. Trying to mimic even a fraction of his charisma is ridiculously hard,even for the great actors. The thing about lalettan is that he doesn't act with his voice and his eyes or face only,but with his entire body. NOBODY,not even Mammootty is good at this physical expressive acting as much as lalettan in Malayalam cinema. So ofcourse chiranjeevi is not gonna live up to it.
I like the dude, but he's not lalettan.
agree..But Mammootty is making better movies these days though
@@vishnur9852 agreed. Hope mohanlal bounce back.
Just like Mohanlal is great in physical acting Mammootty is great in voice modulation and better at enacting different slangs. Both have their own strengths. That's why we say the names of both these actors whenever there is a list of top actors. TRUE gems.
@@vishnur9852 after a long time he got bheeshma....other wise he's worst than Mohanlal...2010-22 mammotty 60 movies 11 hit.. mohanalal 2020-22 41 movies 18 hits including 2 industrial hits..
Last hit D2 was celebrated in all over India..
@@ajaykrishna240 Fck off... I am not a weird a$$ toxic fan like you... I dont care about whos the best among big Ms.. unlike you i have a matured brain... Not the brain of a 15yr old. Dont vomit your ikkachi ettan fight over here. Go somewhere else myree
I felt like Jammy was about to cry while explaining the underwhelming aspects🤣 Like whyy???🤷🏻♀️
lol, just about there
REAL TEARS COME WHILE WATCHING NANI GAARU'S MOVIES ♥
The intro tells such truth abt Salman but things aside that intro those lines told by Andi still hit my heart
I just relate to that line so much
Thanks jammy for making me revisit it 🖤
I wish salman would make some grounded movies like he is a father and a head of family !! Salman would look great as a regular indian commoner .
I really hope he's put his heart for Tiger! We need it!
NOT POSSIBLE. ONLY NANI GAARU CAN NAIL SUCH ROLES ♥
Not gonna do it til he hits 70 😎
I really hope he retires or disappears.
@@Son-of-Krypton haha
Dude, review Mammooty’s new Malayalam movie “Rorschach”. What a delight to watch and unique experience it deliver..
A must watch..❤❤

Though they are doing remakes But bollywood is also trying new concept rather than. Typical movies such as , attack , runway 34 , chup, bhediya, brahmastra, fighter , ram setu, ganpath , immortal ashwatama,
Gultes masala + bollywood nudity,
Perfect combo for the late night party.
@@mokshjain1531 when it comes to OTT bollywood is the best in india

Suriya’s cameo in Vikram was simply awesome
Mollywood in 'Lucifer' always made with content, character based Film ♥️, remade to telugu again satisfied fanism 😐
luifer was dubbed into telugu and released along with malayalam version. Also it was the first film post lockdown in telugu to be streamed on amazon prime and it got millions of views. So chiru just made masala version of it
Lucifer is Gem..
And this movie is a Parle gems 🎉
This is expected from super star movies. Directors make movies for fans and deviate from story telling and tries to provide more screen presence for hero's which is the issue here. Tonivo speech in lucifer was real goosebumps, never though that would be removed.
And the most mind-boggling thing is they had the audacity to dub this in Malayalam and release it there...
They should've casted Vivek oberoi as the villian instead but vivek opposite Salman bhai 😂
While we notice the south remakes being made by Bollywood , why don't we also point out Tamil & Malayalam movies being remade extensively by the Telugu film industry....?
Point
Point🌝 but well that's what he's doing in this video
No one can achieve the perfection of lal ettan . Ettan uyir

Watch Rorschach. You are gonna love it 💯
Though I’m a big fan of Chiranjeevi, I don’t want him to do any remakes and giving silly reasons as justifications.before a great commercial hero who excelled in dance, fights& comedy, he’s an actor with great nuances when it comes to emotional scenes in his old movies. He just still caught himself and his son in the commercial potboiler movies era. Hoping for the content oriented movies in the future
Wondering how it will turn out when 'L2Empuraan' releases, given, many of the characters and scenes from 'Lucifer' were omitted on creating 'Godfather'..
Did they consider this case while making this film, that how will the remaining story would turn out to be, if they are in any plan to do a 'Godfather -2'.?
Hi Jammy, I do follow your reviews and I really like how sensibly you put across your views. Having said that, with all due respect, I want to give my 2cents. “Telugu Audience” sensibilities are very different from rest of the audience across the country. I watched Lucifer and I really liked it … but I’m not sure my father’s generation in Telugu speaking states would like Lucifer as they like Godfather. It’s not that “Chiranjeevi” did not try variations. He did movies like Rudraveena, Apathbandhavadu where one can witness his acting prowess. But they didn’t do well at box office though the movies got national awards. The audience expect large than life characters from Chiranjeevi sir. At the end of the day, films are business and they want to do well. And I think when the wider range of audience have liked the movie and appreciate it (the movie is doing very well in Telugu states), they must have enjoyed the movie and it should not really bother us. You see, the movies are not just for the millennials, they should cater to a wide range of audience from different backgrounds. On a fun note, my in-laws hate art movies- doesn’t mean they have no taste. They just like different genre of films .
It's a bit funny when someone remakes a film and then completely makes the remake devoid of what actually made the original great.
Also you should watch #Thanioruvan 🔥it's such a brilliant film. One of the finest movies ever made. Also Mohan Raja announced there's gonna be Thani oruvan 2. Hope he makes it as exciting as the first part
Was not expecting GodFather to be better than Lucifer, but this was a good timepass watch on its own. I'm saying so because watching it with a packed show at Gaiety really elevated my enjoyment. Chiranjeevi really lent his own to the role and I did like Satyadev and the way he enacted his role. The other thing i liked was the background score, it was pretty effective and suited the tone of the film.
Also, if people ever wonder if Salman's stardom is declining, they should make a trip to Gaiety and watch his films with a packed show.
NANI GAARU'S STARDOM WILL NEVER DECLINE ♥
Bullshit. this crap cannot be compared with Lucifer. it's just a masala film with some superstars that's it. I don't know why people enjoy these shitty remakes. makes me vomit
Godfather is shit compared to Lucifer. But this one is your opinion. And if Salman's stardom is not decreasing, then you don't have to go to Gaiety to experience his power. Salman is loosing his fans fast.
@@aasamspb967 salman khan is still superstar
@@reetakhanna7072 he is. But his fans are decreasing.
This chiranjeevi has audacity to shoot remakes and then tell we have overtaken orginal movie is just 😂😂clown statements.remakes should be done to their nativity is true but this telgu nativity is comedy and has mass masala which is srsly damage to orginal lucifer.why they have made mass moments with masala fights where lucifer has its standards in its screenplay dilogue and wtf is that alpacino song 😂hilarious ppl and hero what I thought 😂
Sak sak alle nilsu
Missile launch from Scooter, can only happen in telugu movies 😂😂
Chiranjeevi is a phenomenal actor nd complete artist. I wish he now picks roles that satisfy the actor in him and doesn't fall prey to formula in the name of fan service. His versatility is mindblowing, and I wish we see that side of him, because he really has a lot to offer. Bring back the Chiranjeevi of Chantabbai, Swayamkrushi, and Shankar Dada please 🙏
Compared to previous movies of chiranjeevi, acting wise he was far more restraint and calm which really helped the film. It's not that bad as people claim it.
He is great! The screenplay by Mohan Raja, not so much!
BUT NANI GAARU IS THE GREATEST ♥
They says it because the more importance to chiranjeevi leads to compromise in storytelling
One thing: Actors like Chiranjeevi, Mahesh Babu do this type of films because audience wants them to see in this type of films. People criticize MB for doing films like SVP, Sarileru Neekevaru but this films inspite of being mediocre commercial flicks Earned huge money in the box office. While Great Critically acclaimed Films like 1: Nenokkadine, Athadu didn't. Many believed that after the flop of 1:Nenokaddine film(directed by Sukumar), MB opted out from Pushpa inspite of already signing the film earlier ( Pushpa was also directed by Sukumar)
Malayalam cinema levels cannot be touched in terms of acting, direction, screenplay, editing and technical prowess. Telugu and other industries only thrive on big budgets to attract movie goers. Connoisseurs of good cinema will always be disappointed after watching any other language after Malayalam.
I initially thought satyadev was about to play the role of tovino... But viveks shoes are hard to fill for him... Would have been better if he had played tovinos role...
Edit -also vivek could have played the antagonist in telugu as well... Can't see a better choice beyond
Salman and Vivek in same movie, despite salman being family friend of Chiru. It seems Impossible...
SRK'S cameo in Brahmastra was the best part. ❤
Lucifer was a masterpiece script, dialogues, frame by frame was very rich and so layered story best actors best direction and bgm & dop were absolutely fantastic... In Telugu nothing only gimmicks for megastar and comedy piece sallu.... Vfx very bad.... Missiles from the bike 😂😂😂😂 I think this movie only for Telugu die hard fans of megastar 🤭🤭🤭
JAMMY by bro, I was expecting review videos of movies like Everything everywhere all at once, Dhoka and many more you have left. Please bring them up too. Not many people are interested in movies like godfather because they already know the result of it.
BUT EVERYONE IS INTERESTED IN NANI GAARU'S MOVIES. POWER OF NANI GAARU ♥
I am from Andhra Pradesh, for me personally it is the audience which make all the difference..We as Telugu audience would like to see our star heroes (with huge following like Chiranjeevi, Ram Charan,NTR,Mahesh) with all the possible elevations on the screen..Mahesh has done some good movies like Khaleja,Nijam,Nani in past but they were failure at box office..because audience+especially die hard fans) couldn't just see their hero in normal movie..that is why top heroes in most of their films make sure that these kind of elevation scenes are included
LUCIFER is a kinda like a coin with 2 sides..one is a commercial movie side to satisfy the masses and normal audience while the other much more darker political gangster drama side with a multilayered screenplay..
The hidden detailing in movie varies from an antihero evil stephen to qureshi abraham,member of illuminaty..
Hope the 2nd side would be detailed more in EMPURAAN..
"made a career for himself directing remakes" - just reminded me of Rohit Shetty
Eagerly awaiting for your detailed analysis of the must watch Malayalam flick: "Attention Please"
It's there in the Netflix
Salman sir only play the role in movie because of his friend request and he not even charge for it.
So as a friend he done this
Ramajogayya Sastry is an amazing poet who not only has his way with words but also could write some deep and poetic expressions. He has songs like Dhivara (the telugu portions) to his credit. Imagine what brief he must have got to write things like Al Pachino tell me know.
Vivek Oberoi Was actually the one who elevated the Lucifer, its not that often another industry's Star comes as Villian in Mollywood. Lucifer also had an underlying illuminati element . Telugu version is like an animated version of the movie made for kids.
Chiranjeevi the real godfather of nepotism.
I knew Godfather will be disappointing and ,Director Mohan Raja known for remakes, He remade Telugu movies and Malayalam movies into Tamil.
Really how it is dissapointing
