Analysis :
Gopichand: Excellent dialogue delivery has always been a forte of Gopichand in addition to
an intense screen presence. His performance in this film too is striking. Gopichand proves to be a
thinking actor with this film as you can see his subtle performance in some scenes. The improved
gradient from Gopichand in this film is dance. He danced with great poise.
ranamOthers: Kamna Jetmalani is competent as female lead. Biju Menon is good as villain and lends
fresh flavor. Ali’s comedy as Manmadha and his item song are hilarious. Comedy thread between Venu
Madhav and Suman Setty is humorous. Rama Prabha seem to be settling for heroine’s grandmother
role in the recent films. She is good as the lady with lots of love for her native place.
TeluguOne Perspective :
First half of the film is entertaining. The tempo in second half is not maintained well. Gopichand steals the show again with good performance. Main strengths of the film are Gopichand and comedy base. On the flipside, title Ranam is kind of misleading as people expect too much of mass orientation. For a change, you see the villain of this film playing fair game with there hero. There is no strong drama between the good and evil as hero dominates villain throughout the film. The climax of the film should have been better. On a whole, there are no boring moments in Ranam
and you may watch it.
