Nagarjuna as Ram Baba exudes 'bhakthi rasa' as if it was his second nature. Then there is a Jagapathi Babu-Anushka duet, completely out of place, when they don't share the kind of relationship that Mohan Babu and Roja did in 'Annamayya'. The Lord's wives (Sridevi and Bhoodevi, ably played by Vimala Raman and Asmitha, respectively) are depicted in the same way as they were in old-time movies: they argue with their Husband, they smile like kids when He changes over into something else, they question His indifference and more. You get a list of do's and dont's when you are to Tirumala, delivered sans much cinematic drama. To a large extent, this film ('ONV') doesn't throw up unheard-of philosophizing or never-seen-before Godly behaviour. The writer supposedly had no much material to draw from, not only because Hathi Ram Baba (whose tryst with Lord Balaji the film is about) has not left a body of literary work, but also because his claim to (whatever little) fame owes to him playing a game of dice with his favourite God and about which nothing much is said to be known.Īt one level, thus, a script developed from such an anecdote can only be as good (or as bland), as imaginative (or as predictable), as novel (or as hackneyed) as the writer/director.

OM NAMO VENKATESAYA FULL
Teaming up with writer JK Bharavi once again after 'Annamayya' and 'Sri Ramadasu', K Raghavendra Rao delivers a pack full of expected elements. What happens when the Lord sits down to play 'pachikalu' with Ram? What is His idea behind choosing him to convey a message to the seekers? What travails and tribulations does Ram Baba face in the process? Answers to these questions are found in the second half.

Under his aegis, the Tirumala rituals attain their true glory even as his childhood mission of having a 'darshan' of Lord Balaji (Saurabh Jain) and playing the game of dice with him remains unfulfilled. He soon becomes famous among the holy place's residents and pilgrims as he enlightens them with his Puranic talks. Ram once again receives God's call in his dream and this time, he has the guidance of both his Guru and Krishnamma (played by Anushka). The 'tapas' is interrupted by the God Himself who impersonates as a kid, whom Ram shoos away out of ignorance. At the abode of Lord Venkateswara, he contemplates for years on end on the advice of a Gnani (Sai Kumar impresses). The film traces the story of Ram, who comes down to Tirumala all the way from North India, in search of God.

Producer Mahesh Reddy sounded optimistic that the film, which is rich in story, came out well. “Saurabh Raj Jain, a new face, aptly fit into the role of Lord Venkateswara,” he added. Raghavendra Rao said that by the grace of Lord Venkateswara, the entire shooting of the film had been completed without even a minor hitch. Keeravani, on his part, has lent spectacular musical compositions, which are on a par with those in Annamayya,” he said. “A biopic on the life of Hathiram Baba, the film reflects the immense abilities of director Raghavendra Rao in choreographing the devotional film. Speaking to the media, Nagarjuna said that he, along with members of the film unit, had come to seek the blessings of the presiding deity, Lord Venkateswara.

The film is yet to clear the censor formalities. Tirumala: Ending speculation over the release of his movie, ‘Om Namo Venkatesaya,’ in which he played the lead role of ‘sadhu Hathiram Baba,’ actor Akkineni Nagarjuna on Saturday announced that the film, in all probability, would hit the screen on February 10.
