Finally the much awaited devotional movie on the life of godman Saibaba, Shiridi Sai has hit the theatres across the globe today. The movie received tremendous response from the public and tickets for the entire day were sold out like hot cakes at many theatres in the state capital. In Bangalore too, tickets were sold out swiftly. Did Shiridi Sai live up to the expectations of the audience? Did Nag suit to the role aptly? It is another milestone in the career of Nagarjuna and Raghavendra Rao who earlier gave Annamayya and Sri Ramadasu? Go through our quick review to find the answers.

Shirdi Sai review

Story

The movie is based on the real life incident of Saibaba of Shirdi, who is considered as sathguru and God by scores of Hindus. Saibaba of Shiridi appears as a small boy in small town named Shiridi as a fakir. He will be addressed as Sai by Mahalsapathi. Later, he makes Dwarakamai, a masjid as his abode and resides there. He will solve the problems of the people and gives holy ash as medicine. Therefore, people consider him not just as a local hakeem (local doctor) but God. A large number of people start visiting Dwarakamai for seeking blessing of Saibaba of Shirdi. Saibaba tells to one of his devotees to protect his body for three days and leaves his breathe. Later, he raises after three days and puts a check to the foul mouth, who demand to cremate him.

Saibaba tells English man that he would live up to hundred years, who will come to check the holiness of the godman. Saibaba unfortunately leaves his body after he takes the illness of Tatya Patil, whom he considered as his nephew.

Analysis :

Shirdi Sai review

There's everything positive about Shiridi Sai. K Raghavendra Rao won the hearts of Telugu audience yet another time with this movie while Nagarjuna gave extra ordinary performance as Saibaba. The famous devotee Nanavali's character was played by Sai Kumar, whose performance was undoubtedly outstanding. All songs of the movie were looking good on the screen especially the first song Okkade Suryudu..song apparently touched the hearts of the audience. Many told us they literally felt they were seeing Saibaba in real and not on screen. Thanks to Nagarjuna for mastering the acting techniques. Cinematography of Shiridi Sai was good. Music scored by Keeravani is another asset to this film.

Shirdi Sai review

Nagarjuna made film critics awestruck with his splendid performance. Sarath Babu, Sai Kumar as Nanavali, Kamalini Mukherjee as Sundari Bai, Srikanth as Dasaguna and Srihari as Wales did justice to their roles and looked perfect. Ali and Bramhanandam too did well.

Final Word: It's a tale of godman, Saibaba of Shirdi.

    very indecently told about a great respectable personality. there is no reality in tis film. people who have watched sri shiridi sai mahatyam of sri vijay chandar garu are really lucky. nag is absolutely unfit to do this role. shiridi sai's real nature has been wrongly projected. i have cried after seeing this film that how foolishly they have protrayed a great personality. its very wrong to show the maha samadhi of sai baba garu happened in sri krishna mandir. baba forgiv us.

  • Geetha Tuesday, 18 September 2012 13:20

    eople who watch this movie r real fools........baba face looks too calm and peaceful, eyes r filled wit respect and love. its a decent and respectable character to play. nagarjuna has played bloody dirty movies indecently wit all roadside heroines will never deserve to play this role, and infact his face never can match babas face. great director raghavendra rao made annamaya fight, and ramadasu dance wit wife... i want to see if he made baba dance or fight..

    I have seen this movie in Bilaspur (CG). There are very much insufficient words to express my feelings. Mr. Nag has fulfilled the deficiency what Mr. NTR (senior) has left.

    i liked this movie very much..

    I got to know how powerful baba is after watching this movie..

    Nagarjuna - what to say about him.. he is excellent..

    I Like these lyrics from Ramajogayya Shastri garu..

    "nee padamula prahavinchina gangaa yamunaa
    maa palita prasarinchina premaa karunaa..
    sayee nee padamula prahavinchina gangaa yamunaa
    maa palita prasarinchina premaa karunaa.....!!!"

    Keeravani composed this & sung very well... this song touched my heart..

    god bless you all..

    Sai Ram...
