It has been proved time and again that a full length comedy
sans sensible storyline leads nowhere, as is the case with
Aaduthoo.. Paaduthoo…, the characters almost border on
foolishness to elicit humor. The second part of the story
is needlessly linked to the politics in a neighboring State.
The heroine, Gayatri, is the daughter of a politician, Arunachalam,
who aspires to become chief minister. To avoid the marriage
forced on her, she runs away from home and mingles with the
Lambdas. She calls herself Vasanti and gets into the bus owned
by the hero, Gopi (Srikanth).
Son of a well-known thespian, Gopi is quite possessive about
the bus since he inherits it from his late father and cherishes
it more-than-his-own-life. One of his father's admires (played
by Tanikella Bharani) sanctions Gopi a loan to run mobile
restaurant in his bus with the help of his friend Papi (Sunil).
However, Papi's character sits heavily on the subject and
audience as well.
Gopi discovers Gayatri, when the latter dozes off in his bus.
To make Gopi and Papi believe that she is a tribal, she speaks
gibberish. Soon, Gopi and Gayatri fall in love with each other.
She also reveals her true identity as the daughter of Arunachalam,
born to his second wife. As minister disclaims them, Gaytri
is out to prove to the world and also make him accept that
she is his own daughter.
Two more comedians, Dharmavarapu Subramanyam who plays a sub-inspector
and M.S. Narayana as the cook hired by Gopi, accentuate the
impact of humor. The story scales, of lengths of Andhara Pradesh,
Tamil Nadu and Orissa.
But for Srikanth and Gayatri, none makes his or her presence
felt - more because of bad script. But for an occasional dialogue,
wit and situational humor, the narrative element becomes stale
and monotonous as it progresses. The last part provides base
for some artificial action drama, pitting Srikanth against
the henchmen of the politician. Music and dialogue do not
impress much.
