Release date : August 03, 2018

123telugu.com Rating : 3.5/5

Starring : Adivi Sesh, Sobhita Dhulipala, Prakash Raj

Director : Sashi Kiran Tikka

Producers : Abhishek Pictures

Music Director : Sricharan Pakala

Cinematographer : Shaneil Deo

Post the success of Kshanam, Adivi Sesh is back with a spy thriller titled Goodachari. The film has hit the screens today and let’s see how the film turns out to be.

Arjun’s (Adivi Sesh) father, who works for National security agency gets killed by a terrorist group. Taking his father as an inspiration, Arjun also joins the agency after a lot of attempts. After finishing his training, Arjun is assigned a mission. But even before he embarks on it, Arjun is framed in the murder of his own agency bosses. This is the time when Arjun finds out that his mission is even bigger than what he thought and has a personal connection to it. What is that twist and how does he solve the mission is the entire story of the film.

Plus Points:

Tollywood is seeing a drastic change in terms of movie making and Goodachari is the latest example as it takes Telugu cinema standard a notch higher. For all those who complain that spy thrillers or action flicks in Hollywood style are hard to make in Telugu, Goodachari is the answer. The film is taut, gripping, filled with ample twists that will keep you throroughly entertained.

Adivi Sesh leads from the front and he needs to be credited for setting a story like this in Telugu nativity which looks totally believable. His writing is crisp as the plot never looks over the top and the logical errors are hard to find. Performance wise too, Sesh has done a superb job. Coupled with his handsome looks, Sesh is superb as the spy and does well in all the action department as well.

Shobita Dhulipala makes a strong debut and is a perfect fit in her role. Her chemistry with Sesh was amazing. Prakash Raj was terrific in the supporting role. Vennela Kishore is impressing with every role of his these days and he will surprise you with his performance in Goodachari.

Yet another biggest advantage of the film is the excellent editing as scenes have been cut in a superb manner and give you a good cinematic experience. Same is the case with the background score which is the best in the recent times as it takes the film to another level. The way the father-son angle is written is top class. Along with the racy episodes, the film is filled with an underlying emotion which is executed well.

Minus Points:

After a riveting first half, things get a bit slow. Not that the proceedings are bad, it is just the twists are revealed and this is why things get a bit slow.

Even though Supriya looks perfect in a serious role, her character should have been given more depth. Once the suspense is revealed, things become slightly predictable during the pre-climax.

Technical Aspects:

Goodachari is high on technical aspects as it is made with top class production values. The camera department takes the cake as the visuals are slick and showcase the locations in a grand manner. The film moves to various countries and all the locations have been captured well. Production design is perfect as the RAW set up has been recreated in a superb manner.

Coming to the director Sasi Kiran Thikka , he has narrated the film in a gripping manner without any lag. He packs superb elements and this is where the film clicks for the audience.

If Adivi Sesh’s Kshanam gave a new edge to the thriller genre, Goodachari is a notch higher and showcases that there are makers in Tollywood who can dream big and make films on an international level. Goodachari is filled with edge of the seat moments and riveting thrills which will keep you entertained. As the film is made on a compact budget, it will make merry at the box office because of its universal appeal. If you ignore the slightly slow second half, you can happily enjoy this popcorn thriller which is filled with ample twists and turns..

All that the filmmakers wanted was to show Adivi's Arjun sporting sharp tuxedos and being desired by multiple women. In that respect, they have achieved the goal. But, the audience who shell out their money to watch this film get very little entertainment in return. (more)

This Adivi Sesh, Sobhita Dhulipala film is a dazzling spy thriller

Goodachari leaves you with a hope that the secret agent and his tribe will continue to grow, and I really can't wait to see what the team does next with the characters. This truly might be the beginning of an exciting new franchise in Telugu cinema, but the question is, who's going to take that leap of faith and bet big on Goodachari's team? Two big thumbs up for Goodachari. The geo-politics might feel familiar, but Goodachari is so kinetic that it'll rub its energy on you. (more)

Goodachari - movie review.

Film: Goodachari Cast: Adivi Sesh, Sobhita Dhulipala, Prakash Raj, Vennela Kishore, Supriya Yarlagadda, Anish Kuruvilla, Rakesh Varre, Madhu Shalini and others Story: Adivi Sesh Dialogues: Abburi Ravi Music: Sricharan Pakala Cinematography: Shaneil Deo Editor: Garry BH Production Design: Shivam Rao Co-producer: Vivek Kuchibhotla Produced by: Abhishek Nama, T G Vishwa Prasad, Abhishek Agarwal Directed by: Sashikiran Tikka Release date: Aug 03, 2018 CBFC Rating: UA Runtime: 147 mins

What’s it about! Arjun (Adivi Sesh) dreams of entering into India’s secret service agencies much like his father who was killed while he was fighting for the country in secret service operation. His uncle (Prakash Raj) who also worked with his father doesn’t want him to join the services and changes his identity from Gopi to Arjun to keep away from the glare of the adverse forces. Despite his uncle’s reservations, Arjun joins India’s Secret service team known as Trinetra and gets trained as officer Trinetra 116. He also falls in love with a beautiful psychologist Sameera (Shobita Dhulipala) who just moves right opposite his flat. Soon Sameera is killed and other killings of Trinetra team happen. Who is after Arjun? And why?   Analysis:   Spy thrillers are not common in Tollywood though Superstar Krishna did bond and agent movies like ‘Goodachari 116’ and ‘Agent Gopi’ in late 60’s and 70’s. Mahesh Babu’s ‘Spyder’ was horrible attempt at spy thrillers. Adivi Sesh has attempted this genre in terrific way. He has ‘Desi’fied the Hollywood spy thriller template by adding lot of homegrown elements and has mixed right emotion.   The story begins with a kid waiting for his father to return from his mission but “hears” the news of his killing by Al Mujahiddin. Immediately it is established that the kid is taking up his father’s path – joining I.B. The film’s initial moments focus on this child trying to step into the steps of his father. Father is his strength, he says. But India’s secret service agents tell him that he could become an agent only when he overcomes his weakness (father). Why so much focus on this thread? Well, this is called pay-off in screenplay writing. These are used in the later part of the movie to add more emotion.   The writing (script by Adivi Sesh himself) is terrific. India’s Secret Service (which for outside world doesn’t exist that directly reports to PM’s office) is named as Trinetra (Third Eye). The three I’s are – infiltrate, investigate and inform. All the operation and agents are constantly watched by the team. Thus ‘Trinetra’ has right name. This is like desi version of ‘Kingsman: The Secret Service’. To be frank, the writing is not copy of Hollywood movies but like a tribute to the past spy thrillers. It also pays tribute to Krishna’s movies as Arjun’s real name is Gopi and he becomes ‘Agent Gopi’ (Krishna’s old movie) and his code is Trinetra 116 (Krishna did ‘Goodachari 116).   The film runs in usual template of a spy thriller but also throws many surprises. The biggest surprise is keeping the identity of the actor who played ‘Nanna’ in the movie. We are also not revealing his name here. The initial portions, the training that Adivi Sesh takes and his romantic thread with Sobhita make us tiresome but they all have a purpose and link in the later portions. The film’s interval is biggest surprise and it goes in engaging manner till the end.   The screenplay is quite racy and has enough twists and turns. Also the film comes up with great visuals despite making in limited budget. The director and cinematographer have worked in tandem here to bring authenticity.   The action choreography is also quite good – the clock fight in the later portion is superb.   The film is a little lengthy but it ends on right note by giving enough room for sequel. ‘Goodachari’ is a right attempt for homegrown spy series.   Adivi Sesh suits well to the role of agent. More than his performance, he impresses with his writing. Sobhita Dhulipala makes confident debut in Tollywood. Supriya as higher officer is superb. She fits the role perfectly. Anish Kuruvilla is good. But the film has terrific performances from two actors – Prakash Raj and the actor who played ‘Nanna’. After a long time, Prakash Raj has got best role and the seasoned artiste has added his mark. Vennela Kishore in a non-comedy role is a huge surprise too.   The film has quality technical output. Given the budget, cinematographer Shaneil Deo has brought out the best work from various locations. The camera work seen in Sikkim episode and the Chittagong episode is the best. Production design is perfect. Sreecharan’s background score is terrific.   Both Adivi Sesh (writing) and debutant director Sashikiran Tikka have pulled off to give us one of the best made homegrown spy thrillers. Their work is commendable.   Bottom-line: ‘Goodachari’ is quite an engaging and gripping thriller about secret service activities. A perfect tribute to old spy thrillers. This makes an engaging watch as it has many surprises and right emotion. The superior writing and making of the movie makes this one of the best thrillers in Tollywood though it has inspiration from some Hollywood movies. Watch it.

Goodachari Review – Gripping action thriller !

Goodachari 2018 review

Telugu360 Rating 3/5

An Indian national security operations team Trinetra’s agent Raghuveer dies in 1995 in a special operation. Fast forwarded to 2017, his son Gopi is passionate about serving the country in similar job. Despite 174 applications Gopi won’t be shortlisted to any agency. After being tested practically, Trinetra agency admits him into their secret group. Terrorists who eye on the agency,traps the information, assassinate the top brass of the organization. They frame Gopi responsible for these killings. Gopi who is on the run works to

• Find out the persons who assassined his bosses
• Find out who is the culprit behind the killing of his father

Widely touted as a spy thriller, Goodachari opens in a promising manner. Gopi (Adivi Sesh) ’s childhood episode establishes basis for his desire to join the security agencies. Later when he grows up, the scene in which secret agency tests his calibre is interesting. Once hired by Trinetra, the training phase scenes flow smooth. After training phase is completed, each agent has been deployed to different zones. Ex-heroine Supriya plays a key role as madam Nadiya. Ex-Miss India Shobita Dhulipala as Sameera plays a smaller but important role as Gopi’s girlfriend. The cat and mouse game between the terrorists and security agency continues to a final showdown interval block. There is an interesting twist here in the way villains frame Gopi. Overall, Goodachari’s first half has been dealt with grip. The director has set the right premise for the next half. Personal side of Gopi has been blended well with main theme (National security agency). However, once Gopi is on run, the tight screenplay goes haywire and plot dilutes. Instead of being a spy mission, Goodachari’s theme narrows down to mere ‘on the run fugitive’ story largely. There is a twist to cover up this, this fugitive has a doubled edged objective. One is to hide himself from police, same time find the culprits who killed his bosses. Climax twists and closing shot are good and saving grace for second half. Closing shot raises the curtains for Goodachari – 2

Due to budget constraints, the large canvas story doesn’t get adequate production values. However, the director Shashi Kiran Tikka and his technical team must be appreciated for delivering decent output with limited budget. Background score by sricharan pakala is very good. Editing is excellent in this film, cinematography by Shaneil is good as well.

On flip side, India’s #1 secret agency operating from a disguised tailor shop, terrorists keeping an eye on the #1 agency’s office with so ease and grabbing all the information they require through their insiders doesn’t sound logical, and the main villain (Name kept secret as per makers’ wish) thread is in-convincing.

Performances:

Adivi Sesh as a secret services agent is classy looks wise, he performed well. Shobita Dhulipala as Gopi’s girl friend is just ok. Supriya got a lengthy role. Anish Kuruvilla, Prakash Raj played senior agents’ roles, they are adequate.

• Gripping first half
• Engaging narration and Twists
• Slick action episodes
• Budget constraints
• Second half graph goes down

Goodachari is a well-made action film blended with father-son sentiment. This film is more like a crime investigation genre film disguised as a Spy Thriller. It starts off on a bigger canvas, as progress, pushes itself to a smaller canvas. Nonetheless ‘Goodachari’ is an appreciable effort on Telugu screen, on return on investment basis, we have a winner at box-office!

Release Date : 03rd Aug, 2018 Director : Sashi Kiran Tikka Music Director : Sricharan Pakala Production company: Abhishek Pictures Starring : Adivi Sesh, Shobitha Dulipala

Goodachari captivated audiences with Adivi Sesh, Sobhita Dhulipala, and thrilling action. Praised for its story and music, it won Best Screenplay and landed on Film Companion’s “25 Greatest Telugu Films” list.

Driven by a deep need to honor his father’s legacy, Gopi (now Arjun) takes the leap into the world of espionage, joining the elite Trinetra program. His uncle, initially hesitant, understands the burning passion in his nephew’s heart and lets him pursue his destiny. Meanwhile, Gopi finds a kindred spirit in Sameera, a brilliant psychologist grappling with her own family loss. Their bond deepens as they share their vulnerabilities, with Gopi eventually revealing his true identity.

The world of espionage proves challenging, with cryptic clues and hidden enemies like the elusive Al-Mujahideen lurking in the shadows. Gopi’s exceptional performance during training earns him a coveted spot as a covert operative, tasked with infiltrating hostile territories and executing critical missions. But the path ahead is treacherous, demanding unwavering dedication and the constant awareness that one wrong move could mean complete anonymity and disavowal. With Nadia and Shaam as his trusted guides, Gopi embarks on a thrilling journey filled with danger and purpose, determined to serve his nation in the shadows.

The celebratory mood at graduation is shattered when Arjun cracks the code: November 12th, not December 11th. The target is Acharya! Rushing to warn Basha, Arjun finds the convoy under attack. Tragically, Basha and Acharya are lost. Back at Trinetra, Damodar, enjoying the tainted whiskey Arjun served, engages in a cryptic conversation with Sathya. Suddenly, he collapses, poisoned by the treachery hidden within the glass. News erupts – Arjun, framed as the mastermind, faces a nation’s wrath. Amidst the chaos, Al-Mujahideen strikes again, leaving Sameera mortally wounded. Shaken but resolute, Arjun flees for answers. Sathya joins the quest, the shadow of a mole lurking within Trinetra.

A trail of clues leads Arjun north, Nadia and Shaam hot on his heels. Meanwhile, a chilling discovery in Arjun’s past emerges, courtesy of Nadia and a hidden bank vault. Now, not only must Arjun evade capture, but also untangle the web of deceit around him, unraveling the true identities of Rana and the insidious traitor within. In a desperate gamble, Arjun sets sail for Chittagong, seeking refuge and truth alongside his trusted colleague Leena. Can he expose the hidden enemy and clear his name before it’s too late? The journey across the Bay of Bengal holds the key, but the shadows will test him at every turn.

Unveiling a shocking truth, Arjun stumbles upon Rana’s identity – none other than his own father. Leena’s bravery and a daring raid expose the heart of Al-Mujahideen, leaving Arjun reeling from a family and nation betrayed.

A shadow from the past resurfaces, forcing Arjun to confront a shocking truth and his legacy, forever intertwined with a covert betrayal and a father’s sacrifice. In the past.

Arjun’s world crashes as the truth explodes. Sathya, forced to confess, reveals Rana’s chilling motive: vengeance for a life of deception and grief. Trapped in his father’s twisted game, Arjun confronts Rana at his secret lair. The air crackles with tension as Rana lays bare his elaborate plan, weaving a web of betrayal and manipulation. Sameera’s role emerges, a tragic pawn in his schemes. The revelations leave Arjun reeling, his mission for truth entangled with a desperate bid for family and redemption.

Betrayal casts a long shadow as Gopi unmasks his father’s sinister past. Twisted loyalties clash in a desperate final act. With a heavy heart, he severs the shackles of deception, choosing duty over blood. Yet, Sameera’s love lingers, a bittersweet echo in the quiet moments.

Review by Michael James ★★★

A well executed spy thriller. Though its got its set of of H-Town inspirations, the suspenseful writing with solid twists and turns, keeps you engaged. Action sequences, editing, music and cinematography were sleekly done. The performances were good. It does take its cinematic liberties and has a few uninteresting characters, but its an entertaining watch.

Review by Akhil Moola ★★★★★

"Inka?" ("What else?")

What a movie! I know this has flaws and this movie is nothing compared to other spy thrillers we got to see. But I admire this movie so much because what it was able to accomplish with such small budget. You can see the talent roaring that the crew possess. But never the less, The writing impressed the fuck out of me and it made me sit on the edge of my fucking seat (Literally) when I first saw it in an Indian Movie Theater.

Any Sri Raghavendra Theatre boys here? I saw this movie in that theatre in Malkajgiri.

Review by Ahijit Ghosh ★★★½

"Goodachari" is a film the narrative of which never simply moves, it runs, it sprints like a cheetah on a hunt for its prey. The irony lies in the fact that it's the quintessential protagonist of the film who's actually on the run after being falsely framed as a terrorist. This is a film with flaws, and it comes off silly, stylish, overblown and intelligent at the same time. The frantic energy is such that it discombobulates our senses and this is a film which primarily operates only on a sensory level, and the way it excels at what it does is more than convincing enough for anyone to forgive its minor mistakes. The thumping background music and scattershot visual…

Goodachari is a totally mediocre spy film, which borrows heavily from Kingsman & Bourne. I really don't understand the fucking hype.

tailor-man: the secret service.

Review by Vishwas Verma 🟠🟢🔵 ★★

Some as it is scenes from Kingsman and Bourne films, otherwise predictable twists. Time waste.

Review by MovieMavenGal (aka Pardesi) ★★★★½

Such a great spy origin story!!

Review by Abel Eve Adam ★★½

Goodachari is comfort food. It's a spy thriller that teases more serious themes, but never fully commits in favor of crowd pleasers. Which is not necessarily a bad thing, per se. We already have seen so many Bourne-inspired gritty thrillers. But Goodachari ends up feeling lightweight - an enjoyable lark on first viewing but easily forgotten.

Overall rating : The funny thing about Goodachari is that you don't have to watch almost half of the good spy thrillers around the globe, it's all in one package.

Review by Rudra ★½

Please, this one is enough. No sequel. Please.

Review by Jithin K Mohan ★★★

The first half was pretty much Kingsman , then the second half does remind a bit of Mission Impossible series and the evident homage to James Bond through 116 by changing single digit to either side was a nice touch. The problem with such homages is that it showcases the difference in quality because of the obvious lower budget, so the film works best when it is its own. The lead actor seemed inept for the role in the first half but managed well in the second half and the romantic subplot and the impending twist was so dull and obvious. But watching a proper Indian spy film without too much masala added is still a novelty. Along with Vishwaroopam and Baby this is the new addition to that list.

Review by Akhil ★★★★

After watching this movie I literally brought myself back to reality to check whether what I was watching was a tollywood movie or not🔥

Review by Pogo87 ★★★★

Surprised that I've given this only a single star on my first watch. Despite obvious inspiration or whatever you call it, it's a great film. (Considering the budget and the output)

Goodachari Story

In 1995, Satya (Prakash Raj) was involved in a secret operation that leads to the death of his colleague and brother-in-law. Satya raises his son Gopi alias Arjun (Adivi Sesh). Gopi wants to follow in the footsteps of his father and join RAW to serve the country. After several attempts, Gopi gets recruited by Trinetra (RAW agency). The agency starts training him along with other new recruits. He falls in love with Sameera (Sobhita Dhulipala). Trinetra sends a team to hunt down a terrorist group that killed Arjun’s father 20 years ago. After an unexpected turn of events, Arjun becomes the most wanted for RAW and Trinetra comes under a threat. Arjun has to prove his innocence and protect Trinetra. What happens next forms the rest of the story.

Goodachari Story Analysis

Goodachari starts on a promising note as a spy thriller but it narrows down to an investigative thriller. The influences of ‘Kshanam’ are visible throughout the writing. The first half is decent with gripping narration and stylish execution. The interval episode elevates the film to a whole new level. There is suspense and many twists in the second half of the film. The climax is satisfactory and leaves its mark. There are some plot holes but it is difficult to discuss them without giving away spoilers.

Goodachari Performances

Adivi Sesh is convincing as a spy. He impresses with his performance in emotional scenes. Sobhita Dhulipala doesn’t have much scope in the film. She is good in her role. Supriya returns to the silver screen after a hiatus and she leaves her mark in an intense role. Prakash Raj as usual impresses with his role.

Goodachari Technical Analysis

Goodachari is a brilliant film on the technical front. Given the small budget, the team has come up with great visuals and a phenomenal background score. The editing is slick and the production values are impressive. The screenplay is gripping throughout the film. The VFX work is not comparable to high-budget films but is not awkward or out of place.

Goodachari is not a regular spy thriller. It is a decent effort and is a treat to watch for the audience of the thriller genre. There are some flaws. But at such a low budget, Goodachari is a commendable film.
