Popular streaming platform ZEE5 has now dropped a new Telugu original series, “Mothevari Love Story.” Let’s see to what extent this comedy drama entertains.
Story:
Mothevari Bongula Parasuramulu (Malla Reddy) from Ayyaaru Palli, Telangana, writes a will naming someone as the heir to his property before committing suicide. His sons, Sathhayya (Muralidhar) and Narsingh Yadav (Sadhanna), share a strong brotherly bond and reclaim the lands their father had distributed to others. Meanwhile, the series also shows the love story between Parshi (Anil Geela) and Sathhayya’s daughter, Anitha (Varshini). Parshi tries everything to win Anitha’s hand in marriage, but along the way, he uncovers a shocking secret about his grandmother, Anumavva (Vijayalakshmi). How does the story unfold from here? Do Parshi and Anitha end up together? What challenges do they face? Watch the show to find out.
Plus Points:
The director does complete justice to the title, and that’s the best part of the show. The way Shiva Krishna Burra envisioned a love track and translated it onto the screen is pretty good. The icing on the cake is the seamless blending of Telangana culture with the plot. Especially the third and fourth episodes stand out.
The director succeeded in showing a pleasant love story (second love track) with good emotional moments. The romantic track between Parshi and Anitha entertains to some extent and is given a satisfying conclusion. Also, the series has its share of fun moments, which bring a gentle smile to our faces. Anil Geela and Varshini did a very good job. They fit the bill as villagers and nicely emoted the innocence present in their characters.
The casting for the flashback portions is commendable. Maira Puli and Raju Bhairagoni looked perfect as young Anumavva and young Parasuram. Not only did they look good, but they also performed well. Muralidhar Goud just continued from where he left off in Balagam and DJ Tillu. His command over the Telangana dialect is brilliant.
Narsingh Yadav’s role, played by Sadhanna, was designed in an interesting way, and the actor did justice to his part. The way he mouths some Telugu sayings is good to listen to. Vijayalakshmi and other artists also did what was required of them.
Minus Points:
The first four episodes have flaws, but the fun and emotions make us forget them. Each episode keeps getting better until the fourth one, so we feel connected to the series despite the slow start.
However, things slow down after the fourth episode. The narrative tends to give a routine feeling. A problem is introduced, and under the impression of solving it, the screenplay gets stretched. Since the climax isn’t groundbreaking, we feel that the drama in the middle portions is unnecessary.
Though one love track is neatly executed, the romantic track involving Parshi and Anitha only clicks in parts, leaving us wanting more. This aspect should have been handled better.
Technical Aspects:
Mothevari Love Story has good production values. The series feels more natural since it was shot in real locations. Sreekanth Arupula’s camera work is neat. Charan Arjun’s music is the show’s biggest asset. The background score and Telangana folk songs are superb. The editing could have been tighter. Instead of seven episodes, the series could have ended in six.
Director Shiva Krishna Burra took a decent plot and handled one romantic subplot very well. He showed promise by extracting good performances from the actors, evoking touching emotions, and neatly handling the flashback portions. However, he resorted to routine narration in some parts of the show. Overall, he did a decent job.
Verdict:
On the whole, Mothevari Love Story is a comedy-drama series that entertains in parts. The first four episodes offer a good amount of entertainment, but post that, the momentum drops significantly. The screenplay becomes routine at times, but the good music, the love story set against the Telangana backdrop, and some fun moments make this series an okay watch this weekend.
