Am I the only one who liked Spyder? It was the first MB film that I saw, and I wasn't an particular fan of Telegu cinema. But overall it was a good film, I understand the point about SJ Suriya overshadowing the film, but I feel you need to have a strong villain for a good action film.
i liked the film
I also liked the film
I also liked the film spyder as a Mahesh fan love from A.P
And the action was performed by household aunties who were watching serial😮💨
❤❤spyder is decent film but mahesh babu characterization could have been better.. ARM didn't use MB potential & mahesh known for action scenes but action scenes are very average
As a Mahesh babu fan ,
i really really miss our experimental Mahesh babu
You forgot to mention businessman where he played almost an anti hero ❤️🔥
He told about film's that haven't worked. That was one hell of a performance back then.
Almost kaadhu
Anti Hero dhan
Businessman was one of the most daring choices from Mahesh
@@reddotcheeseyeah the one where his face almost looked like a rock. 😂
@@raghuram2815he agreed to be in the film after watching ajith's mankatha. 😂
Look at the films and it's genres which he made after dookudu.
1)dookudu:Mass commercial
2) businessman: anti hero
3)SVSC:Family drama(multi starrer)
4)1 nenokkadine: psychological thriller.
Just look at the jump in genres.god only knows what he would've been making if 1 nenokkadine was hit.
True bro☹️
This is sooo true 😭😭😭. Became a mahesh babu fan for superb films like Athadu, Nijam, Pokiri, Khaleja, Okkadu, Businessman, Dookudu, SVSC. And 1:Nenokkadine was one of the best Telugu films ever made. But everything changed after Srimanthudu 😭😭😭😭😭
Nizam ante ra.
It's Nijam Bro 😉
True
@@zaynsaigaming4333 I was blown away by the last fight scene between Mahesh Babu and Gopichand in Nijam.
@@InternetBuff Yes bro........
Gaining fans with super hit films is normal, but gaining fans and love even for his flop movies is something unreal which could only be possible with Superstars like MAHESH BABU....He became the face of Tollywood even before 2010 when many current top actors struggling to score consistent blockbusters at that time in tollywood
Nenokadene is not MB's failure. It's the failure of every creative/visionary/risk-taking artist.
It was an amazing movie. Feels so sad that it flopped.
If it was done in Hollywood it would have praised for that . Mana mundakorlaki ekkaledu adhi . Prabhaas fan ayina sare na fav list movies multiple watch lo first adhe untadgi .
It was crap movie..tried too many things at a time
Concept is good but it’s execution and screenplay is below average that’s why it’s flop movie.

Completely heart wrenching 🥺🥺
We miss him
We miss out superstar😢

Jigar Kalega, Businessman and Ek Ka Dum will always be my favourite Mahesh Babu films.
The whole career versus only one movie BUSINESSMAN... Mahesh is never seen like that. SURYA BHAI is an emotion for superstar fans...
But here in TamilNadu.. most of the people even few actors said he is not expressing the emotions.
They are useless and even they did some masala failure.
But MB never disappoint or disrespect his fans.
Love from TN..
Jai Babu ❤️❤️❤️
Only vijay fans spreads negativity about him.. In general , in TN everyone loves his films... Btw way the video which u see in CZcams about mahesh babu said by vikram& jayam ravi is fake 😂 ... Jayaravi himself a big fan of mahesh babu said in an telugu interview...
Only sullapathy fans cry on him bro their a.s always burn on Mahesh 🤣🤣🤣🤣don't take them serious they are the jokers 😆😆😆😆😆😆
Tamil Nadu is not entire India and we don't care. They are PPL who prefer to stay inside same well like a frog and from their perspective they behave foolishly
They tried to pull down salaar toooo and praised later in Netflix. Lol ...hipocrysy
No nothing like that. He shows emotion in a subtle way. Recently I've seen a video in which his own daughter sits in his lap and cries, for that he will feel bad and i can understand his emotions through his reaction. He does same thing in movie also. He puts his fullest effort. I personally understand his emotions because i too don't make a scene for some emotions but feel good or bad within and show it subtle way.
I feel even Bharat ane nenu was an experimental film and it's success would have made him to do films of those kind.
It was a hit, right? Since then, he is been doing this template shit.
@@atwunzSrimanthudu and Maharshi have the same template, but Bharat ane Nenu, Sare leru are different but Redditors always find a way to troll Mahesh in every possible way, Srimanthudu and Bharat are not even remotely close

And much of those trollers are fans of you know.........
@@beyou8038Sarileru was shit movie. Dont even put it in same bucket as BAN. Srimanthudu and Maharshi felt same.
He was always leagues ahead his contemporaries. His filmography redeemed authenticity, charm and ambition. He held his craft higher without any audacity to confined boundaries, intact he is the only star to gain equal acceptance among the audience irrespective of genre of film articulating his unprecedented mark through his earlier films.
The fact that still he as an actor isn't accomplished much is a testament to his untapped potential. Hope he is in redemption.
We call him Mr.Tollywood ❤
that is actually allu arjun, pakka telugu DNA written all over his films
I know some people trolling Mahesh Babu for his acting limitations. As am from Kerala i admire Mahesh Babu than any other malayali young actor. He is the man with best script selection in Tollywood. When telugu cinema was giving pathetic hits, he had done movies like, Athadu, okkadu, Nani, khaleja, pokiri, one etc

Mahesh stopped experimenting. It is not his fault I think it's the audience's fault that who did not accept the movies like 1 NENOKKADINE. The stakes are so high he can't risk his buyers with his experimental movies now but after #SSMB29, the game will change for him. He will come into a PAN INDIAN league. Again we can expect an STORY conscious Mahesh.
Remove Dookudu and Srimanthudu....
I do t know why Srimanthudu is over hyped, Maharshi is better
i felt really bad and sad when i listen names of all industries Tamil Telegu Malayalam Hindi.....but no name of Marathi film industry was taken , not any Marathi director/actor was praised for their work in the beginning , I Manifest here that, after 10 years Marathi Film Industry will be roaring and household in entire nation ! 🧡🧡
The biggest superstar is coming for the throne The world cinema is yet to witness this acting beast 🥵🤫
Ssmb29🤙🤙🥵
Mahesh anna was, is , Forever no.1 hero...both real and reel...!!! He is No.1 ❤
Athadu, Pokiri, Businessman, Dookudu, SVSC ---- He is a true blue Superstar. Hits and flops are all part and parcel of the business.
Remove Dookudu and put Okkadu
Superstar Mahesh Babu never played with the flow, he is the proper superstar who only goes against the flow and bring some tsunamis like Pokiri, Athadu, Okkadu, Srimanthudu, Businessman 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Super star Mahesh Babu ❤️💥🔥🥵🥵💥🔥🥵🥵💥 no one can match his stardom
the mb fan in me will forever be disappointed about fact that he was the first choice for thuppaki and ended up getting spyder.
1 nenokkadine better than thuppaki🤟🤟
Akshay Kumar was the first choice for thuppakki

This video is kinda a slipper shot to all those, who say mb does same kinda films, same expressions and all that shit!

Good work man!
Film campanion you literally made a video what we fans think.great work
For some he is expressionless, for some he takes safe scripts, for some he does very regular boring films. For some one like me who knew him whole, He is torch bearer hero, he is an acting Everest, he is an example of a big star and how to lighten up the screen, best filmography you come across. Overall a star that a globe soon realises how good and big he is.❤

@@pseudonymous288sambar sullapathy fan ur I can see ur a.s burning 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
To be honest, without him no one will notice Telugu cinema in past 10-20 years back.... nowdays Telugu Cinema survive with Rajamouli and Pan Indian concept but 15 years back Mahesh Babu pull of Telugu cinema forward...
I'm Tamil guy,my first Telugu film is Businessman... thought he is tamil actor
Wonderful analysis Take a bow🙌
Well writtened 😊
Why no one talks about basic acting skill that a actor should have😢😢😢😢😢.
I see this is completely contrasting to my opinion as a Tamil viewer, for someone who have seen his movies dubbed or the original, they felt like they have almost the same story, hero can do anything, except for a few like Seethamma Vatiklo. His attitude or approach to different situations in movies was so similar. But Telugu cinema being carried away by pan-india quest, I do miss the local, made for us movies.
Telugu has something else for tamil.
The video talk his movie.which were decade ago khaleja is good movie and one nenuokkadine I dont know why it is flop it desevere to blockbuster
You have to see his movies before Aagadu (2014). He is a beast and his dialogue delivery is next to none. He carries movie with minimum effort and great screen presence. That doesn't mean he doesn't prefer heavy roles but we only got to see that side rarely in some movies. For example, his earlier movies Yuvaraju and Murari had more emotional moments until again 1 Nenokkadine. In Dookudu entire movie is a comedy but there is one scene in the end between PrakashRaj and Mahesh babu which will pierce your heart after laughing throughout the movie. This example is to say how easily he can emote. Sure, he doesn't have the build for rustic movies but he is soo good at what he does. Just 5-6 movies he chose template movies with minimum effort on acting and dancing and still managed to score blockbusters. Mahesh Babu also had to take long breaks in his career which is also a reason for his low movie count and still managed to create big impact on Telugu Cinema.
Can't blame him for spyder for lack of screen presense
You can't ever out shadow sj suriya
His timing is phenomenal
That said, Never really a fan of MB for acting skills... Always stone face like keanu
But maybe I am wrong... Like I was wrong for ram charan being bad actor but completely killing it in RRR
I too was like that until seeing his old films.The guy could act well it’s just that he is now going through that safe phase for producers.He just like Vijay is a min guarantee star in Tollywood.അതുകൊണ്ട് തന്നെയാ കഴിഞ്ഞ വർഷങ്ങളായി ഇറങ്ങുന്ന അവിയൽ പടങ്ങൾ പോലും കളക്ഷൻ അടിച്ചു പ്രൊഡ്യൂസർ സേഫ് ആവുന്നേ.
റീസെന്റ് ആയി ഇറങ്ങിയ guntur kaaram ത്തിൽ പോലും പടം ഗുണ്ട് ആർന്നേലും അങ്ങേരു കിടു ആർന്നു.
I hope SSR film would give him that much needed change of phase.
Nice one. Even I felt the same, he changed after spyder. Hopefully we will see him back after Rajamouli's movie. The last 2 movies are done just to fill time before Rajamouli's film
Great analysis and well made video essay
I still don’t understand how Kaleja is a flop. I have watched this movie 6 times and it’s excellent in every manner
Mahesh Babu always selects Great story lines but sometimes execution falters
Not necessarily. Execution are usually well done sometimes it’s just that audiences don’t want to accept a different kind of film. Sometimes it feels like audiences are blaming the execution in order to hide the fact that they don’t want to openly saw that they don’t want to see those kind of films
Spyder was not for that period because Telugu audiance at that period they were expecting like mass flims but if Spyder was released today it could have been atleast a hit
What's so wrong with messages?? Srimanthudu, Bharath Ane Nenu and Maharshi are awesome movies and are hits. First half of Sarkaruvari paata is fun too. Parasuram failed in the second half. The only cringe was from Anil Ravipudi, who tends to go overboard without a story. Gunturu Kaaram has good content except the makers rushed to release an unfinished product. One can blame Mahesh Babu for being too obedient to the directors' vision without gauging the results.
Finally a comment I agree with! Yes there’s nothing wrong with messages in movies.. also it’s was just those 3. What world message did sarkaruvaari paata or sarileru nikkevvaru or Guntur karam have? Even after he stops doing the template after 3 films, they say he has a template. His body language and characters are completely different in all 3 movies too.. I wish the makers got blamed for Guntur karam as much as mahesh babu is getting blamed. His effort shows and he was truly a delight to watch even if the direction and screenplay was so mediocre.
@@88MNJIt's just a pathetic theory created by Redditors and some pathetic trollers on CZcams,to them all Mahesh movies post Srimanthudu are message-oriented.
Always Mahesh babu anna ❤
Spyder is one of the best movies of MB, SJ Surya❤
Mahesh can be the X factor from South after Rajini who can be a biggest actor in India.
Not Vijay as he's entering in politics
Not Prabhas as he's popular only after Pan India high budget releases.
Mahesh can be the next Indian superstar from South.
Love from Tamil Nadu ❤
After 2028 , the world 🌎 will know about Mahesh Anna 🔥🔥🔥
thanks for the video ///// well made
Your theory is wrong where spyder was a good hit in tamilnadu and also recieved above average reviews from kollywood
We tamil audience are always welcoming mahesh babu sir if he directly does a film with his experimentation because our industry is more keen with experimental movies with big hereos
Sad reality is that Spyder is far better than Mahesh Babu's recent movies especially Guntur kaaram
Khelaja is better than Spyder it is fact🤟🤙🤙🤙
MB is a star boxed in by his own fans. Even Guntur Kaaram underperformed because his fans have him in the smallest box possible. He is a formiddable talent and its really unfortunate . I loved how much energy he put into GK. Waiting for SSMB collab.
Spyder was an interesting premise but it blended too many unnecessary elements with the old ladies, and over the top climax. We as a tamil audience should have been proud to welcome MB into Tamil Cinema as well - I mean he dubbed so well for himself and ofcourse he looks like a dream.
1 Neno - Tollywood audience failed such a fantastic and nuanced movie by Sukumaran. I mean if this movie released in Malayalam it would be talked about as an all time classic. We place a lot of emphasis on box office numbers and while that is good its unfortunate that stardom hinges on this.
Brahmotsavam - also something he tried. But his own fans rejected this because they did not want to see him in a SRK type avatar.
As a fan I can proudly say we always recognized Mahesh babu's potential. We always dream to see him in different characters he has not done yet. Every Mahesh fan wants to see him in James Bond type role. I personally think Mahesh would do so good in feel-good romantic love stories. The problem was the movies you mentioned lacked in execution. I agree 1 nenokkadine is a great attempt in Indian cinema but for many it would feel like dumbed down Thriller movie. Not the fault of director if he thought everyone should understand the film. It was just ahead of it's time. Brahmotsavam has a cool concept for a family movie but execution was very bad. Coming to Spyder Mahesh fans felt they didn't get to see their star in full potential for such a high budget movie. Guntur Kaaram has the same old template of director Trivikram with messy screenplay, lackluster BGM and faulty promotions made it even worse but still managed to be one of the highest collecting regional movie. Fans were always with him and Mahesh sir acknowledges that we are his best critics. I don't mean to put your opinion down but this is my take on his movies and career. But thank you for loving our Super Star so much.
@@neverstop108fans dream come true ssmb29 biggest mass action adventurous movie💥💥💥
Directors should realise that they should not show what is not there in the movie at the film promotion. This is the mistake muragadas did with spyder first glimpse.
For me spyder was a great film.. maybe its failed in Maheshbabu fandom. Just beacuse its not a mass type cinema , it was a experimental thriller by director. ❤❤
I become a fan of mb because of his experiments
But mb is mass action hero okk pokiri businessman khelaja athadu 1 nenokkadine 💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥

Good video. Make a similiar video in Ranbir Kspoor as well
Spyder is too good movie
ONE Nenokadene was too much ahead of its time . For simple audience it was confusing movie .
finally answered my questions
Both Nenokkadine and Spyder werent that bad in anyway!! it's brahmostsavam that was atocious!!
Ss rajamouli Mahesh Babu combo coming it will break all records jai superstar Mahesh Babu Anna 💪💥
its spyder that brought embarrasment to him from other states as expressionless that's y he even stopped releasing his movies in other languages.

Nice take
No matter what anyone says Nenokkadine is not just one of the best action thriller films ever not just in Indian cinema but in the world cinema. It had everything unexpected yet logical twists, Bound screenplay, solid characterisations, best acting performances and stunts. Nevertheless, it failed to make big at the Box Office. It's truly the failure of the audience.
As a fan of actor and hero Mahesh anna, couldn't agree more !!!
Anyway Great Video brother
Jai super star Mahesh babu anna ❤
Telugu Hero super star local stardom become golbalwise.. Stardom.. Bigesst star of 2 decades tollywood industry...
I think mahesh babu along with allu arjun were actually the first Pan India Stars as his movies like businessman and pokiri were extremely famous in satellite with the hindi audience.So it will be very interesting to see him in a rajamouli film appealing to the whole country
Spyder is one of the best thriller movie of MB. Maybe Telugu people wanted a commercial masala entertainer, because of which expectations didn't reach.
Has to be bad judgement. Takkari donga suited him very well but people werent ready for that genre of cinema.
Spyder was a good film. Idk why it didn’t do well, but it entertained!
No 1 was amazing film...it's not a flop. Spyder had brilliant first half but utterly disappointing second half. No wonder uly it flopped.
Yet MB still needs to improve his acting skills
Spyder's story is highly inspired by Christopher Nolan's Dark night
The narrator knows the telugu cinema, thats why spoken facts ..... when i moved to north for my studies i came to know that telugu cinema means mahesh babu....
makes me feel better to see his experiments more than commercial message oriented movies.
Heck the song showed up in my feed. Thts all .
Some of his films may have failed but the star SSMB never failed.
I really liked Nenokkadine and Spyder. I don't know how the verdict turned out to be flop.
MB ❤️🔥
what an elevation u gave man Twitter trending your dialogue 💥🫡

Spyder was a very good film. It was an engaging and enjoyable film. Tamil audiences at 2017 moved on from commercial masala potboiler, whereas the Telugu audience still wanted their star to have huge mass appeal. Hence, the movie failed
Nenokkadine was a gem. But audience failed thd movie
Once upon a time there lived a ghost(MB)🔥 it’s gonna unfold again only by director Puri jagganadh
Trivikram Srinivas also athadu khelaja 💥
puri version of Mahesh ni avaru chupincha leru bro@@saiharshithguduri7093
Spyder was a bad film. It's downfall started from the teaser itself. They misled the audience with the teaser. And sloppy film making with sub par CG and action. I expected a movie as refined as thupaki with Mahesh Babu in it. But it felt like the director had a vision for the villain and just included the hero and story as an after thought. Just like an undercooked mess just like 7th sense. Khaleja was loved by fans and the audience even when it was released but I think the screenplay was to blame for it. The entire conflict was explained in just a few minutes over loading the average audience.
Soo True
I loved Spyder. But i guess its not a movie for general audience. I know ppl compare it to Dark Night but i compare it to the Glass franchise (Unbreakable/Split- if i am not wrong). A sneaky psychopath who is not a super-strong supervillain but has an incomparable evil mind and is able to execute his plans perfectly. The only bad thing was it made the antagonist to seem like the main character and even though in the end the main character loses (antagonist), we kinda feel like he had a point and shouldnt lose but at the same time we wouldn't want to see him to kill all those ppl so brutally. And this made the audience feel awkward with such screenplay.
In Spyder, the rock rolling scene, house wives mission, final hospital scene - all are too long & stupid... also hero gets impaled by villain's trick.. even if MB not cast, still it was too boring 😢😢
Spyder was enjoyable to me
