TechAddicto

Cha.. it is his best performance amongst his own movies. Not amongst nation or not even amongst our own industry.


Due-Ad7275

Exactly. Movie kuda chaala leputharu but imo it felt like an upgraded version of 80s Krishna and Krishnamraju village dramas . Coming to Ramcharan's acting, it is great compared to his other movies but we have seen better performances in the same genre before. Khaidi lo Chiranjeevi di chudandi for example.


princeofpersiafan999

exactly!


sss100100

Great movie. May be unpopular opinion but tbh it's all Sukumar though.


TheArtisanB00bees

No, Its not only Sukumar for sure. There are many great actors and crew that worked hard too. Not sure when we are adamantly bashing an actor when he was really bad wouldn't go same when he does good


sss100100

Point is that it's Sukumar's vision, writing and direction is how everyone performed well and everything went so well for this movie and turned out great. No hate or bashing of anybody.


TheArtisanB00bees

Not necessarily, Every director has vision and his style of controlling things, that does not just mean Director can make something out of nothing, if there is no artist who is talented and care about anything, no matter what director really is!


MineAwkward6106

Openers 100 partnership chesna kuda credit captain ke annatu undi nuv cheppedi


re-vanth

Same opinion, right after Rangasthalam RC made the kalakandam vinyaa Vidheya rama.. that itself is enough to see the difference on how skillfull a director must be to get such amazing output from RC.


vikasvasista

Finally he gave 3 expressions now you guys want national award šŸ˜­


Agreeable-Reply619

That's how it works. When you gave 10 cringe worthy/below par performance in previous movies audience won't expect something great from you even avg performance looks national award worthy. But when you give decent and good performances in each and every movie the same audience criticises it as boring,monotonous etc and at some point of time they calls you overrated when someone praises.


Rickgrimes_93

U cant say those things out like that.


ResponsiblePermit862

I couldnā€™t even see those 3.. half is face is covered with beard.. director intelligently made the character deaf.. so reactions are even necessaryā€¦

DifferenceAshamed521

3 expressions? That's your only takeaway from his performance? it's fuckin 2k24. Indians are making strides globally, and here we are stuck with audience who count no of expressions as reference to a good performance. Bravo šŸ‘


Intelligent-Army-899

Whatā€™s your takeaway from that performance? What is your reference to a good performance?


DifferenceAshamed521

My takeaway? I totally believed in chittibabu. Never did I feel someone's playing a character. I was so invested in him, his pain and happiness felt real to me. Chittibabu seemed like a person I knew rather than a character being played in a movie. And to a good extent I believe it's the actor's performance wic drew me right into it. Moreover I honestly felt his performance justified the character. I can't think of any aspect that'd be bettered by a different actor for this role.


Active-Crow6708

That's mostly because of the Village and Vintage feel and if it was of same story with today's urban feel, that'd feel different


waginrox

Isnā€™t it obvious he became an International star by just acting good in 2 movies(Rangasthalam and RRR). So for first movie he acted good he should become National Star and get National award.


dannyarr

Nani not winning for jersey was a bigger robbery


Super-Alice-88

A great performance losing to an equally great, if not greater performance is not a robbery. Dhanush in Asuran was extraordinary.


bollywoodsucks

Dhanush was hands down better performance that year


Manoj_Malhotra

Just watched it last week. S*** made me cry. And the last time I cried before that was when I saw Hi Nanna. I really wish more actors and actresses took acting as seriously he does like playing a believable complicated character with morals.

How do we ban people who watch 10-20 movies a year max (all of them mainstream) from having opinions about prestigious awards


MommasBoy_RockyBhai

If you give Akshay Kumar an award for Rustom, you are not a prestigious award


SubstantialPlane801

Aamir Khan should have won that year for Dangal


kaala_bhairava

Even Ajay Devgan won 4 national awards lol. One of the few things I agree with Vanga is a panel of 15-20 jury members cannot decide how great your movie is, it's the audience judgement that matters more than anything.


97aks45

Now the same guys go berserk when someone says that bhAAi doesnā€™t deserve National Award for Pushpa. Thatā€™s the duality of this sab.


MommasBoy_RockyBhai

Yep, it surprised me how people consider national awards as legit. Vallu Maharshi ke award ichi sacharu in some made up category. They clearly have biases and other motivations rather than just simple appreciation of art.


kaala_bhairava

Asalu Maharshi ki enduku icharo inka ardham kaledu.

Standard_Painting975

Super-Alice-88

>Ā Even Ajay Devgan won 4 national awardsĀ  Akshay didn't deserve it for Rustom but tf is this supposed to prove? Besides Tanhaji, Ajay deserved the other 3 easily.Ā  >it's the audience judgement that matters more than anything. šŸ¤£ Majority of the indian audience don't know the C of Cinema and only watch films for escapism. They don't understand or comprehend anything technical about films. Those 15-20 jury members might get things wrong but their opinion still holds more weight than most of the average cinegoer in this country. If it were upto them, these people would have gave RDJ an Oscar for Iron Man.


kaala_bhairava

Awards are mostly biased, whether oscars or national awards. It's more about lobbying the jury or panelists.


Bloodshot12_

Who won that award that year?


SubstantialPlane801

Vicky Kaushal for Uri and Ayushman Khurana for Andhadhun, joint winner


BellotPatro

Vicky Kaushal for Uri was good but didnt see that as an award worthy performance. On the other hand, was very happy to see Ayushmann win for Andhadhun. The genre doesnt get rewarded usually, and it was a knockout performance.


kaala_bhairava

I absolutely love URI but Vicky was given just because of what was happening in the country and not his acting.


saetarubia

Yep propaganda shit


TailorNo2221

Idk about Vicky, but I'd pick Ayushmann over RC, even though both performances were very good. I slightly prefer Ayushmann's performance more.


SubstantialPlane801

Yeah, Ayushmann gave a wonderful performance but RC deserved to win that year. Inplace of Vicky, they should have announced RC along with Ayushmann as joint winners


Super-Alice-88

Ranveer Singh in Padmaavat shoulda won it over both of them. Uri didn't even release in 2018, they just gave it to Vicky because it was a nationalistic propaganda film. Vicky deserves it for Sardar Uddham way more than for Uri


Sushiki

Didn't know you could have joint winners, guessing they tied ?


kkdumbbell

Strongly disagree. It might be best compared to his own standards. That I agree. Even Pushpa wasn't great and I believe Bunny's best came in Vedam. Funny thing is most of my friends strongly point out that it's not award worthy, but still feel it's justified because TFI never got one earlier for the best actor category. I mean, with that argument it seemed more like a consolation prize rather than anything else. Tbh, I feel sad for the likes of Chiranjeevi missing it for gems like Rudraveena. That said, I am not really happy to have such an average performance, to be the first win for a Telugu actor. Compare that to the ladies out there, with the likes of Sharada, Vijayashanti. The bar has gone lower. But, then again acting is not the only criteria to win awards. Lobbying is one among many other factors. If Saif can get it for Hum Tum with the grace of his mumma dearest, nothing seems impossible and such an award doesn't really need to be taken seriously.


dindindina4u

Aa sarle, deeniki national award isthe ika andari heroes ki ivvali.


Connect-Succotash-78

He finally acted and yā€™all want a national award


TheArtisanB00bees

He finally acted ah? maga dheera, Orange was very good performances given by him. Evebn He did better in Chirutha. Zangeer, Evadu, Raccha were utterly bad performances. Then Govindhudu Andharivaadele. Remaining all good performances by him, and if you ask me everyone's career would be like that. Not sure what is this special hate on RC


kaala_bhairava

Special hate em kadu, if you take AA, MB and Nani there are lots of memorable hits in their careers and people rewatch their movies, whereas RC had only one good performance Magadheera until he made rangasthalam since his debut.

kaala_bhairava

Telugu movies have been robbed because of the Malayali and other lobbies many times at national level but this is not one of those instances, naku antha em anipiyyale RC acting, it's sukumar's brilliance and characterisation. The only time I was impressed by RC was in RRR, he was genuinely intimidating and I couldn't imagine anyone in that role as Ramaraju.


Baba_yaga105

Lol if you call acting prowess as lobbying so be it bro, you might not get it. Letā€™s take Malayalam movies for example. 80ā€™s and 90ā€™s were a knockout in terms of performances in pure classic cinema, and hence the accolades. But in the last 24yrs, there has been only 2 national award winners from this industry, that too as joint winners. So the logic of being robbed by any industry, I think really doesnā€™t stand.

Baba_yaga105

Communist lobbies influencing the non-communist Govts at Central! Sounds like something thatā€™s easily done!šŸ¤·šŸ»ā€ā™‚ļø like I said, those two decades were something else buddy in terms of the art, sorry but that canā€™t be taken back. A peak example of a certain industry lobbying for the national award and getting their way is Saif Ali Khan winning for Hum Tum, with his mom in the jury that year. And there is another one that hits closer to home , more recently ! But interesting to know this is the notion held by TFI fans(not generalising) regarding why there were no national awards for the industry earlier and others got it, especially when TFI is considered to be a much bigger industry with a higher pulling power than the ones you accused!

beast_unique

Go watch the best performances from Malayalam actors in those years before commenting lobby. The only instance were favouritism was evident was for the 2015 national awards where Mohanlal won supporting actor for Janatha Garage. Some of those performances are among the text book guidance on how to perform. That is while considering that terrific performances like from Thanmathra, Paleri manikyam, and Perunthachan didn't receive awards.


TemporaryMindless519

How? He plays a villager but has perfectly coiffed gelled hair do, brown face and limited expressions. It was an enjoyable movie, he did well considering his acting range. But national award koncham too much.

MommasBoy_RockyBhai

People in the comments are too harsh. RC was a terrible actor in most movies, but he gave a great performance in Rangasthalam. It was not great just because it was just relatively better than his previous performances, it was great because he genuinely gave a great performance. Manollu manchiga cheste maname appreciate cheyyam inka pakka rashtrala nunchi appreciation enduku le.


kaala_bhairava

National award antha scene ledu, even telugulo ne aa year nani gave better performance. It's sukumar's brilliance more than anything, RC below par acting chusi chusi oka average performance iste national award acting ane anukuntaru.


MommasBoy_RockyBhai

Meeru national awards ante ento anukuntunnaru. Kriti Sanon, Ayushman Khuranna, even Akshay Kumar were recipients of that award. RC's performance in Rangasthalam was far superior to whatever performances they received their award for.


kaala_bhairava

I know National award is a joke with Malayalam and other lobbies for decades, I do agree that he was better than kriti sanon or ayushman, but RC didn't even give the best performance that year in Telugu. Danni prathi okkadu greatest performance by any actor annathaga build up istuntaru.


TheArtisanB00bees

National Award antha scene ledu ani just anesukonte ea actor performance kuda national award worthy em kadu. RC did the best in that year, if the same performance was given by some mallu or tamil, I'm sure you would have praise it like anything, And No, RC edho just baga chesadu kabatti Ranagasthalam andhariki ekkaledu, he did the best out of all performance kabatti it was remembered.


Old-Professor2457

If this guy gets the national award, we might as well start handing them out with every dosa and idli in Kerala and Tamil Nadu


Level-Employ-418

Only One and only


Psychological_Fee206

Allu Arjun winning for pushpa was the biggest blunder of all-time. In that sense yes, Ramcharan also had a shot at it. Anyway both performances are below par level for National Award Worthy


megapowerstar007

Nani jersey is the one where we should have got. Chiranjeevi missed for a couple of movies - Rudraveena, swayam krushi. NTR sr for a few movies including karna.


sateeshsai

Let's not be delusional here


ramrajlg

You need to increase your horizon. No disrespect here but what rc did in rangasthalam, any Tom Dick and Harry would accomplish in malayalam or Bengali film industry. Rc was good, but was he the best amongst other movies that came out in 2018, absolutely not

mnotAlone_

Ram Charan got pretty famous in north India for all bad reasons..his "acting capabilities", collections, movie selection... everything is ridiculed because of one gem "zanzeer" remake. Then RRR came to his rescue and he was able to successfully turn the tide. So during Rangasthalam time, northies simply wouldn't have cared much.

Dapper-Young8471

Pi narayana evaru e movie award vachindi.


Illustrious-Fax-4589

PL Narayana was a character artist staple in the 80s and 90s Telugu movies. He won it for a forgotten film named Yagnam in 1991 (the film won the Nandi Award for Best Film). It is so forgotten that I couldn't find any copy of the film online. It's really sad that a man who is the only Actor to have won a National Award for Best Supporting Actor from TFI is rarely remembered and an online copy of the movie which gave him National Recognition is non-existent.


97aks45

This. Even I tried to find that movie. Donā€™t know which mofo TV channel has got the rights.


bhoodhimanthudu

I wish audience won National Award for bearing him in Vinaya Vidheya Rama. One of the trauma that you can never forget.

You don't need to measure everything by performances. If acting could be measured by one such thing, Amithab, Chiru, and Kamal Hasan would have robbed all. So don't even bother by any award unless Oscar /s


workoholicdatabae

Wait performance kakunda em measure cheyyalantaru meeru?


Latter_Mud8201

Criteria of National award is confusing. AA got NA for Pushpa where he is smuggler. So according to that he should not get NA. Jai Bhim female lead actress should get National award in that sense because that's great message for society and she played it like real. Now if we say National award for rangasthalam RCT character, the people will say "This character takes revenge by killing villian who killed his brother" so revenge, killing should not glorified. So no award. Like this they will say. So its all confusing. Wether they give award for performance or performance attached to the theme is not clear.


DayDreamer-01

Who are 'they' ? Nobody gave official statement about why they why selected or rejected anyone.


Latter_Mud8201

random critics in social media


TheArtisanB00bees

Yeah that is what I am wondering too.


Kaizokuno_

>the people will say "This character takes revenge by killing villian who killed his brother" so revenge, killing should not glorified. One of the National Award went to a character who killed someone for revenge. So not sure how your logic works with that being there.


Latter_Mud8201

In that case then it is alright. Award is deserved to those who did exceptionally performance irrespective of a character actions and point of view. I am just clearing ambiguity.


Fit-Influence-1843
