Plot

[edit]

Ram Prasad and "Lucky" Prasad are brothers and polar opposites. While the former is an honorable ACP, the latter is an unemployed, happy-go-lucky guy who is constantly at odds with his brother. Madhali Shiva Reddy is a mercenary turned politician. He holds a squad of police officers at gunpoint, and forces one of them, Rajeev to kill his commanding officer, ACP Sameer, also Ram's best friend, to save the lives of the rest of the officers. Ram is determined to prevent Shiva Reddy's participation in the upcoming elections.

One day, Lucky meets Spandana, daughter of an industrialist Bheem Prakash, in an elevator. He notices that she doesn't react to anything, maintaining the same expression on her face without reacting no matter what happens. When she refuses to look scared during a bank robbery, even after being threatened with a gun, Lucky asks her why she is like this. Spandana says that she feels all emotions 'inside'. Her father, Bheem Prakash, taught her to be in control of her emotions. Lucky, who has fallen in love with Spandana, calls it rubbish, and vows to bring a change in her.

After meeting Lucky on a regular basis, she learns to show her emotions and reciprocates his love. Ram learns of Lucky's relationship and informs Prakash that his daughter is roaming with a lazy and spoilt guy as retribution for a previous prank. Prakash instantly dislikes Lucky, and tells him that he cannot marry his daughter. Lucky and Ram have a serious fight, where Lucky is slapped by his mother for the first time. Shaken and enraged, he steals Ram's jeep, in which Ram was transporting files that incriminated Shiva Reddy in numerous crimes. Lucky is then attacked by Shiva Reddy's men, who mistake him to be Ram, and the Jeep goes up in flames along with the files. Lucky beats up the goons, who try to tell him that they were planning to murder Ram. Upon hearing this, Lucky is enraged. He kidnaps Shiva Reddy and beats him into a coma, tying him upside down to a tree. Shiva Reddy is hospitalized.

Lucky then visits Shiva Reddy's father Peddi Reddy and confesses. He talks about how he used to hate his brother, but has now realized that he loves his brother very much, which was why he reacted the way he did. When Shiva Reddy wakes up from his coma, Peddi Reddy motivates him to wait for his opportunity and take revenge on Lucky. Lucky decides to reunite Ram with Shwetha, the woman he used to love, so that Ram would become happy and not interfere with his love story. After a few hilarious twists, his plan works.

After recovering and being elected as an MLA, Shiva Reddy uses his influence and starts to take revenge on Lucky and his family. He gets Ram suspended by paying a woman to claim that she was sexually harassed by Ram, and has the government demolish the family's house, claiming that it was illegally built. Ram is then informed that it was Lucky that stole his Jeep. Ram is furious and kicks Lucky out of the family after berating him for what his mistake has cost them.

Lucky is abducted by Shiva Reddy, who brutally beats him and leaves him hanging from the same tree Lucky hung him from. Lucky escapes and plans to take revenge with the help of Home Minister Govardhan, who owes Lucky for his promotion from MLA to Home Minister. Lucky fools Govardhan by convincing him he is suffering from cancer and has only two days to live. Govardhan says he will grant any wish Lucky asks, and Lucky requests to be instated as a special officer and asks Govardhan to do a solitary 12-hour ritual for Lucky's survival. Govardhan agrees. Lucky is in charge of a team of police officers including Kill Bill Pandey, a frustrated police officer who takes the lead and helps Lucky destroy Shiva Reddy's properties, not knowing Lucky is a fake police officer. Lucky sends Kill Bill to Shiva Reddy in person to get a list of his factories under the pretense that they'll know which factories to not raid. Using the list and the media, the special forces team invades and exposes Shiva Reddy's illegal operations. Govardhan's prayer finishes and after the CM scolds him of his mistake, Govardhan seeks Ram's help.

Lucky fights and defeats Shiva Reddy, but after he cuffs him, Ram appears and cuffs Lucky. Govardhan and the CM want to publicly hang Lucky for his illegal actions and for humiliating them, but Ram tells them that people wouldn't take well to killing the man who exposed Shiva Reddy. He reveals that the public was planning to re-elect the same government in the next elections. Lucky uses this opportunity and blackmails the CM and Govardhan to continue this special-force team and give police officers like his brother full powers. They let Shiva Reddy go, but he is shot to death by Rajeev. Lucky and Ram reunite with their family and friends.

Reception

Critical reception

[edit]

The Times of India gave the film a rating of 3.5 out of five stars and stated that "All in all it’s the ideal Tollywood masala package loaded with the right doses of entertainment, brotherly love, and Brahmanandam. You can’t ask for more can you?".[90] Sify gave the film rating of 3.25 out of five stars and noted that "'Race Gurram' is a regular commercial entertainer with a dose of comedy in the second half. Allu Arjun and 'Kill Bill' Pandey steal the show".[91] idlebrain.com gave a review stating "Plus points of the movie are Allu Arjun, Brahmanandam, Cinematography, second half screenplay, all round orientation and production values. On the flip side, eccentric villain characterization and uneven tempo of the film should have been taken care of. On a whole, Race Gurram with its allround commercial elements should do well at box office! And watch out for Brahmi as ‘kill bill pandey’!" and rated the film 3.25/5.[16] According to all the reviews and critics Allu Arjun Police Introduction scene is the highlight scene from the entire movie .[92]

Oneindia Entertainment gave a review stating "Race Gurram has excellent performances by lead actors, engrossing narration and rich production values, but lacks a fresh plot. It is a good family entertainer that will also impress the mass audience. It is a must watch movie for Bunny and Surender fans" and rated the film 3.5/5.[93] IndiaGlitz gave a review stating "Race Gurram, for all the powerful imagery it stands for, is not an all-out Allu Arjun film. Although his heroism is enough to captivate the young audience, it's more the very many characters and brother-brother conflict that keep the proceedings interesting. Race Gurram is watchable for the little doses of heroism, romance, and comedy" and rated the film 3.5/5.[94] The Hindu wrote "Race Gurram makes no pretensions to be a hatke film. It is an out and out Allu Arjun film and it makes no bones of that. Directed by Surender Reddy, Race Gurram is a family entertainer with its fair share of action and comedy and a generous dose of Allu Arjun’s dancing skills".[14]

Box office

[edit]

Race Gurram collected a share of ₹6.89 crore in Andhra Pradesh and Telangana in its first day.[95] The film became the first Allu Arjun film to earn $1 million in USA.[96] The film collected ₹54.31 crore nett in 4 weeks,[97] becoming the biggest hit for Allu Arjun.[98] The Malayalam dubbed version Lucky: The Racer was also received good reception at the box office.[96] Race Gurram completed 50 days in 159 centres[97] and 100 days in 26 centres.[99] In its full theatrical run Race Gurram earned over ₹59.4 crore distributor share and emerged as the highest grossing Telugu film of 2014.[12]
