Now, he’s back with another biopic, Konda, which tells the story of former Telangana politician Konda Murali, and the trailers have raised expectations, despite the fact that RGV hasn’t made a biopic in a while.

Movie Verdict
RGV is known for biopics because he has made some of the best biopics with his unique perspective, like Raktha Charithra and Veerappan. In order to immerse the audience in the world of Konda, the film benefits greatly from the use of the RGV voice-over.
As RGV showed in the first half how Konda Murali became a criminal and those situations were captured so well, and Konda Surekha’s characters were placed so well in the story as RGV used her character perfectly and the second half mostly focused on his political journey and RGV showed some brilliant scenes in the second half, but the story gets overstretched in proceedings.
Several scenes with Thrigun as Konda work well because we are used to him as a lover boy, but Irra Mor’s performance is mediocre and the rest of the cast, including Prudhvi Raj, LB Sriram, and Tulsi, all perform admirably.
RGV proved once again that he’s a one-of-a-kind director in this film, and there are plenty of scenes where you can see brilliant camerawork and writing, as well as RGV’s ability to keep the audience engaged.
Konda’s technical departments performed admirably despite the lower-than-expected production values, but the cinematography by Malharbhatt Joshi and the catchy songs by the Indian singer DSR highlight. The background score by Anand Kollabathula falls short of the high standards set by RGV’s previous films, but the rest are strong.
RGV has made a comeback with Konda, and if you’re a fan of his work, you should see it as soon as possible.
Movie Rating: 3/ 5
