It is a well-known fact that Bollywood’s top producer-director Karan Johar bought the remake rights of the film Dear Comrade. Karan took the decision right after watching the film in a special screening at his office, just two days before the release of the movie.
Shahid Kapoor Shows No interest in Dear Comrade
But things changed when the movie got released and received a divided talk from the audience. Finally, it ended up as a commercial failure and incurred losses to the producers. On the flip side, Karan already started looking out for a suitable hero for the film and he has approached Shahid Kapoor.
The Kabir Singh actor has apparently rejected Karan’s offer in a smooth way. We don’t know whether Shahid is not interested in doing another remake now or he is afraid that the film will bomb in the north as well but he said a no. Without having any other choice, Karan is now looking out for another actor.

Vijay Deverakonda’s latest film Dear Comrade had hit the screens a couple of days ago and is getting a good response from the audience. Apart from being an intense love story, the film also deals with the sensitive issues of sexual harassment on women. Rashmika played the role of a cricketer who gets sexually harassed by the chief selector.
Mithali Raj About Dear Comrade
As the issue is relevant to society, it is important for people to know these issues. An NGO named Cheers Foundation, in collaboration with star Indian cricketer Mithali Raj, organized a special screening of Dear Comrade for girls of the foundation. Actors Vijay Deverakonda and Rashmika Mandanna have also attended the screening and post-screening event.
Mithali thanked everyone who made the event a success. She tweeted, “There’s no better way to spend Saturday than by bringing a smile on the faces of these children from the Cheer Foundation. Thank you for making the ‘MithaliRaj initiative’ a possibility, @Andrew007UK @iamRashmika @TheDeverakonda @rama_rajeshwari @sumansaraf @zcws_ghmc @team_sai.”

Dear Comrade Gets Positive Talk
Both Vijay and Rashmika are promoting this film restlessly in various cities, from last two week. At every event, they said that this is the film which is close to their heart and pinned a lot of hopes as well. Keeping up their hopes alive, the film is getting good reviews from the early shows and morning shows.
Dear Comrade is carrying a positive buzz from the US premiers also. It looks like Vijay has scored another hit at the box office and proved his mettle once again to the producers. Dear Comrade is produced by Mythri Movie Makers and Big Ben Cinemas.
There are a few sensational films that happen very rarely and the makers and actors involved with those films get their due in the form of the following and huge accolades. We have, Vijay Deverakonda, a sensational actor who shot onto stardom with his cult film “Arjun Reddy” nationwide. He came into films without big support and he reached the stage to support someone. His choice of films are very interesting to watch and he knows what he is doing and what he is going to do. He is now coming to the theatres with “Dear Comrade”, directed by Bharat Kamma which has Rashmika Mandanna as the female lead. This film is produced by the blockbuster production house Mythri Movie Makers and Big Ben Productions. Let’s see how it works on us as it is releasing into theatres today.
Story
Dear Comrade Review
Bobby (Vijay Deverakonda) is a college student with communist ideology. He fights for the students and hates political parties. He falls in love with Lilly (Rashmika Mandanna), a woman cricketer. She always wanted him to be peaceful but his anger issues always make her fear. They both part their ways due to his behavior and Bobby goes on a soul searching a way to better himself and know himself. He returns to Hyderabad and gets to know some hard facts about Lilly and starts his journey as Comrade. What are the facts? What happened to Lilly? How Bobby fought for her?
Cast and Performance
Vijay Deverakonda has done a fabulous job. After Arjun Reddy, this role is a cakewalk for him as both are similar in many ways. Rashmika Mandanna is superb. She has made the biggest choice of her career for the best role of her career in the form of Lilly. Suhas is good. Sruthi Ramachandran is nice. All other actors have done superb work in their roles.
Writing Department
The story of Dear Comrade is superb but the screenplay is a bit lengthy and the dialogues are written well.
Technical Departments
Justin Prabhakaran makes his Telugu debut as music director and he has given a chartbuster album for Dear Comrade. He scored a fantastic background score for the movie. The cinematography by Sujith Sarang is superb and the visuals complement the happenings in the movie well. The editing by Sreejith Sarang is fine. The production values of Mythri movie makers is grand.

Verdict
Dear Comrade is the story of a “fight for the right of an individual”. This is an emotional journey of two characters who go through some disturbing incidents in their life. Director and writer Bharat Kamma has chosen a good story but he made it a lengthy one. Arjun Reddy, too is a lengthy movie but the length never bothered for that one but it bothers the audience here. The first half of the movie has set up the mood of the film and the second half explores the emotional aspect. The movie becomes very emotional towards the end with a message for the audience. This film has many similarities with Arjun Reddy, the way Vijay behaves, his anger issues and his love for the girl in his life and his friends, his no care attitude, etc. But what makes this movie different from that is the comrade and the emotional aspects of the movie. Most of the film runs on a very normal way which neither bores you nor entertains but the highs are very well placed in the screenplay. To be honest, Director Bharat Kamma stayed true to his story even though the comparisons with Arjun Reddy are inevitable. To sum up, Dear Comrade has its moments to entertain you this weekend.

Vijay Deverakonda and Rashmika Mandanna are all set to sizzle on screen together after Geeta Govindham, with their new film Dear Comrade. Directed by debutant Bharat Kamma, this movie is all set to hit the screens on this coming Friday, in all the four major South Indian languages.
Dear Comrade Lengthy Runtime!
The film has completed its censor formalities recently. The censor board awarded it a U/A certificate. The runtime of the film is locked at 169 minutes which equals to 2 hrs 40 minutes. This is a very long runtime considering average runtime of 2 hr 10 minutes these days.
But anyway, the makers are quite confident about the success of the film. It seems that the second half will move the audience for sure. Dear Comrade is produced under Mythri Movie Makers banner.
The much-awaited Comrade anthem from Dear Comrade was released a while ago. Right from the first hearing, the song ups the rage among the listeners. The track is outstanding with upbeat music scored by Justin Ranganathan. Lyrics written by Chaitanya Prasad are powerful and summed up with meaningful wordings.
Dear Comrade Anthem
Vijay Deverakonda also crooned some parts of the song. This is the second song sang by him, after What the life in Geeta Govindham. Vijay’s vocals helped the song to reach the next level. The Tamil version was sung by Vijay Sethupathi while Dulquer Salmaan crooned the Malayalam version.
The superhit music album is helping the movie to build decent expectations. Dear Comrade is directed by Bharat Kamma. It features Rashmika Mandanna as the heroine. It is slated to release in all the four South Indian languages on the 26th of July.

Young actress Sai Pallavi is known for non-glamorous and non-kissing policy in her films. Pallavi has got an immense fan following among the masses, without doing any skin show and bold scenes. But sometimes, her strict policy made her leave big projects and Vijay Deverakonda’s Dear Comrade is one of them.
Sai Pallavi Rejected Dear Comrade
Apparently, Sai Pallavi was the first choice for the heroine role in Dea Comrade. Though she loved the story, the Fidaa actress backed off when she heard that there will be kissing scenes in the movie. Thus, the makers had to replace her with Rashmika Mandanna, who shared impeccable onscreen chemistry with Vijay.
Sai Pallavi also lost the chance to act in Mani Ratnam’s Cheliyaa due to the very same reason. As of now, she might be getting a good role sans the romantic ones, but sometimes she might lose really good offers due to her non-kissing policy.

Actor Vijay Deverakonda is well known for his badass attitude on the public events and thus his fans fondly call him as Rowdy Star. The Arjun Reddy actor also mentions his fans as Rowdy boys and girls. He also started a clothing brand called Rowdy Wear last year, which became an instant success.
Rashmika Mandanna as the brand ambassador for this Lady Rowdy wear
Rowdy Wear mainly targets the youth and many youngsters in both the Telugu states have opted to wear the clothing of this brand. Surprisingly, even quite a few girls are seen wearing Rowdy wear. Looking at the interest among girls, Vijay is now planning to start a dedicated clothing brand for young ladies.
Apparently, this brand will be called Lady Rowdy. It seems that Vijay is planning to rope in Rashmika Mandanna as the brand ambassador for this Lady Rowdy wear. He might make an official announcement regarding this news after the release of his upcoming film Dear Comrade.

Vijay Deverakonda and Rashmika Mandanna had superb onscreen chemistry in Geeta Govindham. They also shared a kissing scene in the film which plays a major part in the proceedings. After the blockbuster success of Geeta Govindham, the pair again teamed up for Dear Comrade.
Vijay Devarakonda on Kissing
Both of them were in Bangalore recently to promote the film. While speaking to the media over there, Vijay was asked about the liplocks in the film. Vijay instantly said that he doesn’t like the word liplock. He requested the people should term it as a kissing scene and not as liplock.
He said, “Actually, it is not Vijay kissing Rashmika. It is Bobby kissing Lilly. We are the only country where people forget that actors are playing characters on screen. Kissing is an emotion, like anger. When you cry, it is an emotion. In the same way, when you kiss, it is also an emotion.” Dear Comrade is slated for the worldwide release on 26th of July.
