After getting introduced to Avani, how does Uttam change his character as a gentleman? What problems does he face after turning into a gentleman? Answers to these questions forms the movie story.

Analysis :

Director Gopi Ganesh has succeeded in making changes and additions to the Tamil movie & made the movie according to the taste of Telugu audience. But he failed to make the movie fresh. The Tamil movie “Sathuranga Vettai”, released in the year 2014 & it brought into limelight the incidents of cheating during that time. But the way people are getting cheated is changing. It would have been good if director would have showcased these new ways. People who have not seen the Tamil movie might like this movie.

Gopi Ganesh has succeeded in getting good performances from the cast as a director. Also, cinema dialogues are good. Dialogues have given strength to the scenes. But the narration iss very slow. So, some scenes seem to be boring. The songs composed by Sunil Kashyap are good. Background music is also good. Production values, photography and editing are good.

Plus points:

Satya Dev’s acting
Conversations
Sunil Kashyap’s music

Minus Points:

Story
Freshness in the story
Slow narration

Performances:

Satya Dev has shined as an actor once again. He has proved that he can act in any given roles. Voice Modulations & dialogue delivery are his plus points. It is sure that he will flatter the audience with his dialogue delivery. Nanditha’s character is small but she has impressed the audience with her acting. Her acting as a pregnant woman can be applauded. All the other artists have also done their job well.

TeluguOne Perspective :

Bluffmaster is a small budget movie but it cannot be ignored. Satya Dev’s acting, Sunil Kashyap’s Music, Direction & Dialogue by Gopi Ganesh have made the movie a good one. Though the movie cannot be called an extraordinary one but it is sure to entertain the audience.
