Story
A dreaded sandalwood smuggler who made three states panic, a clever cop out to nab him and a director, who has been trying to make a movie on their encounter.... That's RGV's Killing Veerappan for you.
Roles and Performances
The biggest plus point of the film is Sandeep Bharadwaj. He looks every inch Veerappan and fits the role to the T. Another plus for the film is Shivaraj Kumar. He does full justice to the role of cop Kannan. He is intense and his action scenes are just wonderful. Shreya (Parul Yadav) and Muthulakshmi (Yagna Shetty) are the characters that are least developed.
Technical Aspects
RGV makes a sleek and stylish movie. He throws in his USPs liberally and ensures that the film is gripping. Camera work and the lens capture were quite good. The directorial fault is, where the story gets dragged in Second Half with Bore Scenes. Editing is good. Background Score Makes Audience to Involve in Movie. Production values are too good.
FilmyBuzz Analysis
While Shivrajkumar is unknown to Telugu audience, it is RGV who steals the show. It is an out an out RGV film. It will be a treat to all RGV fans, who have been feeling that the director had lost his deft touch. He is back with a bang and all his shine and shimmer is still in tact.
Verdict - Realistic Story well Moulded in the Hands of Perfect Director.
