Mahanati story:
Mahanati is the first ever south Indian biopic on the life of veteran actress Savitri. Set in four decades from 50's to 80's, the movie throws light on some important events of her life both as a superstar and a person. The film brings out certain interesting and lesser known aspects of her life.
Performances:
Keerthy Suresh has played the titular role in Mahanati and she has done justice to it. Her performance is the highlight of the movie. Dulquer Salmaan, Samantha Akkineni and Vijay Devarakonda, who have played important roles and done justice. Jr NTR, Mohan Babu and host of other actors' cameo roles are also among the big attractions of the movie, say the viewers
Technical:
Mahanati has good production values and Mickey J Meyer's music, Dani Sanchez-Lopez's cinematography, Kotagiri Venkateswara Rao's editing, dialogues, makeup and recreation of her era are attractions on the technical front, say the audiences.

#Mahanati 1st half engaging n entertaining interestingly woven btw Savitri's reel n real life. Subtle comedy, well written dialogues. lively moments with young bubbly Savitri, @keerthyofficial excels, @Samanthaprabhu2 & @thedeverakonda drive the story. Poetic interval bang

Super first half...right from the very first scene u get the vibe that it's gonna be good and it has been good so far ..was skeptical of the biopic before but really well handled ..Keerthy justifying the role of #Mahanati and is lovely.. Awesome biopic,heart wrenching too..falling short of superlatives to praise Keerthy.Actors/actresses are immortalized by their work already & to be immortalized in a classic is legendary..loved the Sam track too, #Mahanati is for the ages,to be celebrated.very good Nag Ashwin

#Mahanati first half done. @dulQuer as GeminiGanesan is cool. @Samanthaprabhu2 and @TheDeverakonda is good. But it is #RajendraPrasad is very good and ofcourse @KeerthyOfficial is amazing, she lives #Savithri. I doubt if anyone can fill the resemblance she has with #mahanati #Mahanati - a great story of #Savitri deserved to be told and it is wonderfully told. Take a bow #NagAshwin. Immense respect to @KeerthyOfficial. In 2nd half, she just looks like #Mahanati. Everyone in this movie can be proud telling story of one of the greatest women. #Mahanati - boxoffice or not , it will surely remembered as successful portrayal of #savitri. People, spare your time and money to know who the great #Mahanati #Savitri really is behind the screens. A great actor, humanitarian , philanthropist and a wonderful soul. Winner ! Can't stop raving @KeerthyOfficial portrayal of #savitri. Make no mistake people, the gargantuan task she had to do and I can assure she did her best. The pin drop silence after the movie and people walking quietly outside speaks the impact of the movie. Heart wrenching tale!
