Gulte Movie News And Politics
Funky, the upcoming comedy entertainer, is gearing up for its theatrical release on February 13, and all eyes are now on director Anudeep, who is in need of a strong comeback after his last outing ended as a flop. The film stars Vishwak Sen and Kayadu Lohar in the lead roles and is produced by Naga Vamsi, who has been quite clear about the film’s intent.
From the beginning, Funky has been positioned as a single-liner-based comedy, with the focus purely on entertainment. The producer himself has stated that audiences should not expect heavy emotions or a strong storyline, but should simply walk in for time-pass fun.
This approach has sparked mixed reactions, especially since such films heavily depend on punch dialogue and situational humor.
One major concern is the absence of a chartbuster song. For such films, there should at least be one chartbuster song, but even that is missing in Funky. While the trailer managed to create decent buzz, and with very few promotional stuff, trade circles is curious about how it pull crowds into theatres on its own on day one of its release.
With limited pre-release hype, Funky’s fate will largely depend on word of mouth. The film needs unanimous positive talk from day one to sustain at the box office. Whether Anudeep’s single-liner comedy can click this time remains to be seen.
