Court – State Vs. A Nobody – An engaging courtroom drama
Court: State Vs. A Nobody is the latest Telugu courtroom drama featuring Priyadarshi as the lead. With its intriguing trailer, the film garnered significant expectations. Now that it has hit the theatres, let’s see how it fares in our review. Story: Set in 2013 in Visakhapatnam, Mettu Chandrashekar (Harsh Roshan), also known as Chandu, is the son of a watchman and earns his living by doing various jobs. Jabilli (Sridevi Apalla), a student from a respectable family in the same city, crosses paths with him. An incident leads her to tease Chandu, and they gradually start talking over the phone. One day, Jabilli’s uncle Mangapathi (Shivaji), a caste fanatic blinded by honour, discovers that she is in Chandu’s house. Enraged, he gets Chandu arrested and attempts to ruin his life by falsely applying the POCSO Act against him. As the case intensifies, the victim’s family seeks the help of Vijayawada lawyer Surya Teja (Priyadarshi), an assistant to the senior advocate Mohan Rao (Sai Kumar). What happens next? Does Surya Teja prove Chandu’s innocence? Why is Mangapathi so ruthless towards Chandu? How does the courtroom battle unfold? Does Chandu get justice? The answers lie in the main film. Plus Points: Director Ram Jagadeesh deserves appreciation for crafting a meaningful courtroom drama. Despite this being his directorial debut, he handles the narrative well, particularly in the courtroom sequences, which are well-written and engaging. The next highlight is the performances. The director has written the character of Mangapathi exceptionally well. Shivaji, in the role of a caste-driven and cruel man willing to go to any extent for his family’s honour, delivers one of the finest performances of his career. His portrayal is so convincing that many might relate it to real-life figures. Young actor Harsh Roshan gets another interesting role, and the movie revolves around his character. His performance in the love scenes and his conversations with Sridevi Apalla, who plays Jabilli, are commendable. On the other hand, Sridevi looks beautiful and carries her role with charm. The main highlight of the movie is Priyadarshi, who plays Surya Teja, a competent lawyer. Once again, he gets an interesting role and delivers a compelling performance. His dialogue delivery is neat, and during the courtroom proceedings, his expressions speak louder than words. It is a remarkable role in his career. Actor Harshavardhan is equally impressive alongside Priyadarshi. His courtroom sequences are impactful. Other supporting actors, including Surabhi Prabhavati, Sai Kumar, and Rajasekhar Anigi, fit their roles well and do justice to their characters. The climax is one of the most well-written scenes, where the director effectively presents the public’s perspective on law and emphasises the importance of legal awareness in a thought-provoking manner.
