Mahanati

An Ode to Savitri

Since this is biopic of Savitri, the role of Savitri is there from the beginning to the end and naturally Keerthy Suresh hogs all the limelight. She gives solid performance in the role of Savitri. Except that she is not overweight, Keerthy has got everything right -- expressions, acting, gait and emotions. She has lived in the role of Savitri. The film also belongs to Dulquer Salmaan who is exceptionally terrific as Gemini Ganeshan. He’s charming. He’s also egoistic. He gets the part perfectly well.

“Mahanati” is a perfect ode to a great actress that is told in a touching manner with spellbinding performance from Keerthy Suresh.
