Geetha Govindam movie review: Vijay Deverakonda's performance proves he is not a one hit wonder
FirstpostFollowing his knockout performance in Arjun Reddy, which made him an overnight sensation, Vijay Deverakonda treads a very familiar and safe path in Parasuram’s Geetha Govindam, a romantic comedy which works despite its tried-and-tested plot. As much as it’s worth debating whether Deverakonda after playing a cussing, alcoholic medical surgeon with anger issues in Arjun Reddy chose to play Vijay Govind in Geetha Govindam to sanitise his on-screen image, there’s no denying that he can pull off any role with ease; he’s a delight to watch in this film. In Geetha Govindam, we are introduced to Deverakonda as Vijay Govind, the ideal man of every woman’s dream. The fact that Geetha Govindam comes right after Arjun Reddy actually works in favour of the former, even though the content isn’t pathbreaking.
