Rupak Ronaldson’s Pareshan (Troubled) depicts the village lifestyle marked with simplicity and fervour while bringing the native Telangana’s flavour to the fore.
Issac is an ITI dropout with good-for-nothing friends. Troubles start after he falls for a village girl Sirisha (Pavani Karanam), a Hindu. He then gets duped by his friends.
Director Rupak Ronaldson, who grew up in this milieu, perfectly portrayed the lifestyle, the culture and the people of this part of the Telangana region.
The performances in Pareshan are realistic that you submerge into the story. Muralidhar Goud plays a serious yet vexed father who keeps chiding his son Issac for his behaviour.
Actor Raju Bedigala’s supporting character in the film is a rib-tickling one. Other characters like Pasha (Bunny Abhiran) and Sujatha (Shruthi Raayan) are impressive.
