Pros: “Miss Shetty Mr. Polishetty” explores a simple yet challenging concept, skillfully handled by director Mahesh Babu P.
Anushka Shetty delivers an outstanding performance as Anvitha Ravali Shetty. She portrays a bold and pragmatic character who fears the commitment of marriage. Her on-screen presence is striking, and her nuanced performance marks a remarkable comeback.
Naveen Polishetty once again showcases his talent in a role tailor-made for him. His witty humor and wholesome comedy captivate the audience from the moment he appears on screen. He also handles emotional sequences with finesse.
Though his role is limited, Murali Sharma delivers a commendable performance, especially in the pre-climax. The supporting actors fulfill their roles effectively.
In addition to the performances, the film boasts high production quality, with Gopi Sundar’s background score masterfully setting the mood.
Cons: While the plot is straightforward and well-executed, the director could have picked up the pace in the second half.
The first half feels somewhat sluggish, with a few unnecessary scenes that disrupt the flow of the narrative. Injecting more emotional depth into the story could have strengthened the audience’s connection to the characters.
Characters played by Murali Sharma, Sonia Deepti, and Abhinav Gomatam could have been given more prominence.
Technical Aspects: Writer and director Mahesh Babu P impresses with his work, delivering his best output. However, a bit more attention to screenwriting would have been beneficial.
The soundtrack by Radhan includes a trio of melodious songs, while Gopi Sundar’s score significantly enhances the film’s impact. Nirav Shah’s cinematography is impeccable, with every frame exuding richness.
Editing by Kotagiri Venkateswara Rao could have been crisper. The film benefits from high production values, thanks to the production house.
Verdict: In conclusion, “Miss Shetty Mr. Polishetty” is a heartwarming comedy-drama featuring outstanding performances by Anushka Shetty and Naveen Polishetty, a commendable score, and emotional moments. However, the film grapples with sluggish pacing in both halves. Nevertheless, it offers a worthwhile cinematic experience for this weekend.
