Save The Tigers 2, the second installment of the popular Telugu web series, Save The Tigers, premiered on the Disney Plus Hotstar OTT platform today. Dive into our review to discover whether Save The Tigers 2 lives up to its expectations.
Story:
Continuing from where it left off, the series follows the journey of Ghanta Ravi (Priyadarshi), Rahul (Abhinav Gomatam), and Vikram (Krishna Chaitanya), who find themselves under suspicion for the alleged kidnapping of actress Hamsalekha (Seerat Kapoor). However, a twist occurs when Hamsalekha clears their names and forms an unlikely bond with them. As their individual pursuits unfold, including Vikram and Harika’s project and Rahul’s writing endeavors for Hamsalekha, the series delves into their ambitions and personal lives, exploring the complexities therein.
Highlights:
The creators, Mahi V Raghav and Pradeep Advaitham, deserve praise for seamlessly continuing the story with added emotional depth. Priyadarshi once again delivers a standout performance, excelling in both comedic and heartfelt moments. Abhinav Gomatam impresses with his wit, while Chaitanya Krishna holds his own. The female leads, Jordar Sujata, Pavani Gangireddy, and Deviyani Sharma, contribute significantly to the narrative.
The initial episodes are filled with laughter, with standout performances from Abhinav Gomatam and Priyadarshi. Seerat Kapoor’s presence adds value to the storyline, despite limited screen time. Mukku Avinash and Rohini provide entertaining moments, complemented by a satisfactory performance from the supporting cast.
Areas for Improvement:
While the series generally maintains a positive momentum, there are occasional lapses in entertainment value, particularly noticeable in the fourth episode. A more consistent injection of humor could have elevated these slower segments. Additionally, certain character arcs, such as Seerat Kapoor’s and Rohini’s, could have been further developed for added depth.
Technical Evaluation:
Director Arun Kothapally, with input from Mahi V Raghav and Pradeep Advaitham, ensures an entertaining and family-friendly viewing experience. While production values remain satisfactory, some episodes could benefit from smoother editing to enhance narrative flow.
Verdict:
Save The Tigers 2 offers a watchable comedy experience, highlighted by strong performances from the lead actors. Despite occasional dips in entertainment value and underutilized character arcs, the series remains a viable option for family viewing, albeit slightly less engaging than its predecessor.”
