It is too late to write a review for Telugu superhit 'Arundathi', so just jotting down my opinions of the movie. This Kodi Ramakrishna directed Anushka Shetty starrer is very rich in production values (Producer MS Reddy), some high quality graphics (Vaishak Nambiar) but gives a sense of deja-vu through out. Kodi rehashes many scenes from his old hit 'Ammoru' and updated with new visuals. The first half was good whereas the second half makes you restless in seat - when this movie will come to an end. Anushka was good in the royal look displaying her hourglass figure but looks jaded in the modern scenes. May be the ambience is highly exaggarated that sometimes you feel like she had performed well. Sonu Sood is menacing as womaniser Pasupathi while Arjan Bajwa is a gap filler. Best comedy is the rape scenes of the movie... the rapist and the victims are cladded to the toes, moaning and shouting during the action. They just evoke laughter, no sympathy or scary feeling. If you have watched "Ammoru (Amman in Tamil), give Arundathi a skip. Atleast 'Ammoru' had a high sentiment quotient. If you still want to see 'Arundathi', it can be done for its SFX. - {oshits} reads
