New Delhi: Only a few hours are left for the release of ‘KGF: Chapter 2’. Fan clubs on social media can’t keep quiet. Various trends and observations are being made as publications post live updates about the film’s pre-release fever.
‘KGF 2’ stars Yash, Ravinda Tandon, Sanjay Dutt, Prakash Raj and Srinidhi Shetty. As the second installment of the super-hit ‘KGF’ released in 2018, Chapter 2 will recount how Rocky battles against the Prime Minister, his greatest enemy Adheera and others whom he has sought control of the Narchi Limestone. has cheated. Corporation.
‘KGF: Chapter 2’ will clash with Vijay’s ‘Beast’ (which released on April 13). All eyes are on the performance of the film, which some predict may even surpass Rajamouli’s ‘RRR’.
So why does a film like ‘KGF’ become its phenomenon? Here are 9 reasons why we think a movie like ‘KGF’ is in the works.
1. Description
From action sequences such as Garuda’s death sequence #1, in which he does not die, to Garuda’s death sequence #2, in which he dies, ‘KGF’ is a film that reveals details. How to get weapons, how to execute a plan and after that, director Prashanth Neel is a complete director. The mutual similarities and lines between the characters are like a trick within a Marquez novel, but with a godfather touch.
2. Speed
Despite the difference in the variety of sequences and the difference in the first and second half, the pace of ‘KGF’ is very pleasing to the people. In this day and age of instant gratification, the makers of ‘KGF’ are well aware of the strategy to engage the audience.
For example, the opening sequence of ‘KGF: Chapter 1’. The first 15 minutes of the film just fly by. It is as if the director is fighting with the goons to chase down Yash’s original opening sequence to keep Inayat Khaleel away.
3. Swag
You cannot miss Yash’s swagger neither in his dialogues nor in his personality. ‘KGF’ is deeply embedded in the motif of Swag and its strength lies in it. This is also one of the primary reasons why the film did such a good job.
4. Mass Entertainer
While Hindi films are now more than ever struggling to entertain on a larger scale, South films for example, ‘Pushpa’, ‘RRR’ and ‘KGF’ are solid prototypes of modern day mass entertainment. They are multi-genre friendly, delivering music, action, dialogue and plot just as it appeals to people across demographics.
5. One-Man Show
One of the reasons South films work so well – while Hindi films are experimenting and trying to be more inclusive and politically correct – is because of their heroes.
The protagonist of ‘KGF’, like all the mass entertainers at work, is an angry young man with blind ambition. He fights his way against all odds to reach the top, has few friends, and has a distinct sense of masculinity. In most of these films, except ‘RRR’ (which featured two men), it is always a one-man show.
On the other hand, women always make cameos in such films. But, why is cinema to blame? Doesn’t this reflect the society at large?
6. Action and Violence
The Theater of Brutalism suggests a level of violence in the play that the audience rejects rather than glorifies it. However, as seen in art forms such as movies, demi-god heroes exhibit a level of action that people become fans of. And, ‘KGF’ is no exception.
Note: Action movies from the south have a kind of loyal fan base that deserves a study.
7. Ideology
Stories are coming to life, fantasy is becoming reality and a working class hero is becoming king with his might. ‘KGF’ taps into the emotions, everyday reality of struggling lives of those who have a hero who speaks for himself, working for himself without fear and knowledge without the inherent class-barriers in every sphere of life does. Yash/Rocky In that regard, the Messiah in a million is the one people pin their hopes on.
“KGF is the story of a mother who has gone through a lot in her life and wants her son not to be like her. She wants him to be rich at least when he dies. This is a trustworthy point for the whole country. Only the 1 percent of people who are privileged simply can’t relate to it. ”- Yash in an interview.
8. Visual Storytelling
‘KGF’ has a rich color palette. Its tonality changes with the psychological states of its protagonist. In the pre-enlightenment stage, i.e. when Yash is fighting for his personal ambition, the colors are red, black and too bright to highlight his personal brand. After the Enlightenment, the color palette turns gray and brown when Rocky begins to fight for the people around him in the Narachi Limestone Cooperation.
9. Yash Factor
Believe it or not, like it or not, ‘KGF’ is one film that stays with you even after it’s over. One of the primary reasons why this happens is because of the way Yash portrays his character Rocky in the film. Perhaps, a household name would have been better than the obvious references associated with the character name ‘Rocky’ in cinema.
Having said that, the name Rocky does not in any way affect the brand name of ‘KGF’. This has indeed created a niche loyal fanbase for Yash and the film. And, it is a commendable achievement, even as the film crosses language and cultural barriers.
‘KGF: Chapter 2’ will release tomorrow, 14 April 2022.
