It is known that on last Friday, multiplexes across the Hyderabad received a legal notice directing them to stop the screening of "Mr Nookayya", earlier titled "Mr Nokia", which became a major point of contention with the cellphone company, Nokia Corporation & Nokia India Pvt. Ltd. 

After this episode, Manchu Manoj's 'Mr. Nookayya' is all set to be relaunched again and this version is going to be faster and sleeker. This version has been titled ‘Mr. Nookayya Reloaded’ and the film will be hitting the screens tomorrow i.e. March 17. Film makers removed few scenes from the original version.

The company had filed a suit for permanent injunction at the Delhi High Court against the use of its registered trademark and recovery of damages from producers of the film. However, the makers of the film changed the title of the movie to "Mr Nookayya" and went ahead with their planned release. It was then that the company approached the Delhi High Court again, which passed the order on March 7, a day before release, to stop screening of the film.

Taking to this Manchu Manoj posted on his micro blogging site twitter, "Good morning guys :) Nokia company is trying to stop our movie in all multiplexes :(( they r claiming nookaiah and nokia is same...(sic)."

Next day, at a press conference Manchu Manoj said, "I didn't know that a company called Nokia exists. We use Blackberrys, Samsungs, iPhones."

And finally, Manoj said, "I request Mrs Nokia to tell Mr Nokia, that I'm not the real Mr Nokia, but I'm Mr Nookayya which happens to be the name of a God."

Mr.Nookayya Movie Review

Story:

Mr. Nokia aka Nookayya (Manoj) is a mobile phone thief. At one point he decides to settle down in life by stealing big money. He comes across Anu (Kriti), who is carrying 2 crores money with her. He steals the money and gets cheated by his friend and dumped by his lover. At this point he meets Anu again and comes to know that her husband has been kidnapped and the ransom that the kidnappers demanded for was stolen. Now Nokia tries to rectify his mistake by getting her husband back from the kidnappers. What happens next is the crux of the story.

Analysis:

Mr. Nokia storyline is surely exciting. The characterization of hero and his goal has an uncanny resemblance to Allu Arjun’s Cable Seenu track in Vedam movie. Despite having a solid story, the director faltered with the screenplay. First half of the movie is not up to the mark. Only the interval point is good up to some extent.

Second half too starts on a dull note and turns in to a road film. Hero heroines take road journey for most part of the second hour. The film has been dragged a bit in this part. Few scenes clicked and sustained the interest. There are few twists thrown in to the narrative towards the end and they are fine.

On a whole Mr. Nokia lacks the necessary punch to enthrall the masses. Ultra stylish making doesn’t suit this film. Apparently Manoj is interested in slick action flicks. But he should concentrate more on the stuff that impresses majority audience.

Performances:

Manchu Manoj is a powerhouse of energy. He has done fabulous job as Nookayya. His dances are rocking and so are his fights. He does complete justice to his title ‘Rocking star’. He shoulders the film right from the word go and is definitely on the right track to become a bankable star.

Kriti Kharbanda is sweet and Sana Khan is hot. Their performances are okay. Kriti scores a bit higher than Sana though. Brahmanandam is funny in a small role. Vennela Kishore is strictly Okay. Murali Sharma is loud. Ahuti Prasad and others did a fine job.

Technicalities:

Yuvan Shankar Raja used most of his compositions from Tamil and the music is okay to good. Background score bears Yuvan’s stamp. Action sequences, the chase sequences in particular that were choreographed by Manoj are energetic and keep you on the edge of the seat. Dialogues by Lakshmi Bhupal are average. Rajasekhar’s cinematography is flashy. Editing too adds to the flashiness of camera work. Production values are notable.

Director Ani Kanneganti canned few scenes well and lost grip over the narrative at times. He should work on the story telling techniques. He tried to make this film a commercial entertainer with twists and turns, but a gripping screenplay would have helped the movie.

Final Word: Mr. Nookayya is a mild entertainer with some good moments. Manoj’s performance and energy are the assets. We have to wait and watch for audience reception for this film.

Mr. Nookayya Movie Rating: 2.75/5

Banner: Sri Sailendra Cinema
Cast: Manchu Manoj, Kriti Kharbanda, Sana Khan, Brahmaji, Ahuti Prasad, Brahmanandam, Direction: Ani
