'Devaki Nandana Vasudeva' Trailer: Boyapati genre plus Bellamkonda loudness

We already have one Bellamkonda Sai Sreenivas. Why did we need Ashok Galla, otherwise far better an actor than the Bellamkonda dude, to enter the same-old dated territory? The Trailer of 'Devaki Nandana Vasudeva' feels like another mish-mash of elements done to death by Boyapati Sreenu, N Lingusamy, and a few other mass filmmakers. Last year, Vaisshnav Tej's 'Aadikeshava' profusely bombed at the box office by attempting a similar experiment nobody asked for.

The story of 'Devaki Nandana Vasudeva' has been written by Prasanth Varma. That gives some hope - only some. Actually only a little. If Varma deployed the Lord Hanuman emotion for 'HanuMan', this time, the Lord Krishna aura has been built around a seemingly done-to-death formulaic tale conceived around the Kamsa vs. Krishna legend.

For the unversed, a bit about the prophecy about Kamsa. "Kamsa was told that the eighth child of Devaki would kill him. The eighth child born to Devaki and Vasudeva was Krishna. Krishna was saved from his Mama Kamsa's wrath and raised by Vasudeva's relatives Nanda and Yasoda, a cowherd couple," says a devotional website. 'Devaki Nandana Vasudeva' borrows its premise from this story from the Mahabharatha. The film will head to theatres on November 22.
