The Kannada film industry eagerly awaited the debut of Yuva Rajkumar, the scion of the revered Rajkumar family. However, director Santhosh Ananddram’s film, “Yuva,” disappoints by following a predictable formula. Let’s delve into the highs and lows of this action-packed drama.
The Angry Young Man
“Yuva” introduces us to Yuva Rajkumar, who embodies the quintessential angry young man. His character doesn’t miss a chance to deliver punch dialogues, and his journey mirrors that of many heroes before him. The film’s resemblance to Santhosh’s earlier work, “Mr. and Mrs. Ramachari,” starring Yash, is striking. Both films feature flawed protagonists with anger issues, college fights, and tumultuous relationships with their fathers.
The Gang Wars
The movie kicks off with a bang—a gang war erupts on a college campus in Mangalore. Yuva represents the hostel students, and he single handedly takes on a horde of boys. The attempt to present Yuva as a ‘mass’ hero is evident, but unfortunately, the execution lacks organic authenticity. The monotonous dialogue delivery adds to the film’s woes.
The Family Drama
After the interval, the film shifts focus. Yuva transforms from a bat-wielding troublemaker to a responsible son burdened with paying off his father’s massive debts. The father-son storyline is well-executed, surpassing even **Sandeep Reddy Vanga “Animal.” However, the logistics of clearing such debts on a delivery boy’s salary remain puzzling.
Emotional Turmoil
As the film progresses, Yuva’s emotional journey takes center stage. His father finds renewed hope, thanks to Yuva’s efforts. Despite facing adversity, including goons and financial struggles, the film veers into sob story territory. The middle-class dreams and struggles resonate, but the portrayal could have been more nuanced.
Conclusion
“Yuva” may not break new ground, but it serves as a launchpad for Yuva Rajkumar. While the film adheres to familiar tropes, it remains a testament to the enduring appeal of family-centric narratives in Indian cinema.
