In a scene from Hit: Third caseIn a character, Arjun Sarkar’s (Nani) works are described as “classy”. Arjun said that this time, he intends to show his true self – often steps away from the image of refinement associated with him. In another moment, when someone warns him that he “cannot survive here”, he responds, “I have been listening since the beginning of his career.” These meta-synthetic lines feel less like commentary on character and the actor himself like nodes.
In Hit 3Director Silash Kolanu Fan Service Lines, Casting Nani – Long embraced by family audience – in a dark colored, bloodier setup. The film carries a ‘A’ certificate, and the grandmother effectively shed her human-next-door image to become a ruthless police, the methods of which, uncertainly, come under investigation.
Slow burn vodunit tone of earlier films, in this third installment Kill The universe trades the mystery for carnez. It is not about who, how, or why – criminals are beyond logic. The real question is whether the film successfully marries the crime thriller elements, which is accompanied by full-throatal action to offer an entertaining cinematic experience. Some sections powerful land; Other people feel stretched or highly engineer.
Arjun Sarkar converted the level Krishna Dev (Adivi Sesh) as the SP of the Visakhapatnam unit of the fictional homeside intervention team. His cruel reputation made him first, and when he could be seen as a policeman with a criminal streak to the outside world, the film slowly pursues its layers.
Hit: Third case
Director: Tilash Kolanu
Cast: Nani, Srinidhi Shetty
Time: 157 minutes
Storyline: Police Arjun Sarkar, known for his ruthless treatment for criminals, has to enter a diastopian world to save the lives of innocent people.
Silash Kolanu balances Arjun’s hard-coop personality with a weak personal side. Whereas 1 hit Vikram Rudraraju (Vishwak Sen) presented as a policeman with PTSD, Hit 3 Arjuna as a man around the throat of a midlife crisis, with a boil feeling of blood pressure and a boil of dissatisfaction. It is commendable that the grandmother portrays a character in her 40s, completing with brown hair, embracing a more mature roles for major men.
A gentle humor outlines early classes, especially in stressful dynamic dynamic between Arjun and his father (Samuthikani), and in his frequent failure to meet women through dating apps.
The non-revision tries to layer the character of Arzun with a mystery, but the audience familiar with the mainstream story can quickly combine the large arc together. The story of the story in Kashmir, Bihar, Jaipur and Arunachal Pradesh – although crimes could be easily within the Telugu states. Geographical spread, however, hits the bet of the hit universe.

The first two hit films stood out in detail for their attention – especially procedural aspects and unexpected appearance of supportive pets. While there are no dogs this time, they take steps to give some more important clues. With its predecessors, the title card appears during a decisive sequence. Famous faces from earlier films return, some play important roles, others perform briefly.
The romance track, which first feels like a point, is eventually woven meaningfully into the plot. Nevertheless, no one can help, but wonder how a policeman made his observation famous for his observation skills?

As the wider pattern of crime emerges, the film turns into action by the mystery. The interval card sets the tone for further lies – for Arjun and for the audience. Visual palette (cinematography by Sanu John Varghese) also plays its role: when white white steps into a deep setup, everything soon sheds blood in Crimson. Since the trailers have already revealed the most violent scenes, the remaining moments of cruelty do not shock. Violence plays in a real, diastopian setting, reminiscent of some extent Squid gameIt is cruel, yes, but not grateful. Mickey Ji Mayor’s music fits in the score setting. That said, action episodes in pre-climax and climax feel overstrafts.
These moments – and Arjuna’s arc more widely – suggest how thin the law can be between and lobreaker. People familiar with the work of Arthur Conan Doyle can recall how Sarlal Holmes and Professor Morirti reflected each other: one used intelligence to resolve the crime; Other, to make it.
Nani caught Arjuna’s layered personality with punishment. He anchors the film through some of his weak parts, clearly giving the opportunity to break up with his familiar romantic, humor and emotional characters. He is completely reliable as a policeman capable of deadly force, yet wrestling with his emotional delicateness quietly.
However, unlike its predecessors, Hit 3 It limits its assistant characters. Earlier films relied on efforts to crack matters, but here, the spotlight remains largely on Arjun. Nevertheless, Chitu Jonnalagadda and Komle Prasad manage to stand out. Srinidhi Shetty is a welcome for the franchise, which brings both an unexpected turn in elegance and narrative.

Between chaos and violence, Tilash Kolanu finds a place for that. In a scene, Arjuna admits a female colleague for a significant success and clearly clarifies that praise is not conservation or gender-it is purely qualified. Women officials play an important role in major scenes, strengthening the message that the capacity moves the penis. At the same time, the film creates a broad point: regardless of the penis, man may be able to be very good or intensive evil.
In a recurring comic beat, otherwise the foul-mouth Arjun takes his language down in the presence of women. There is also a bizarre inclusion of snipyts by Chhaganti Koteshwar Rao, which presents a brief but entertaining contrary to the gritty proceedings.
In a latest casting option, the major opponent is played by an unexpected actor in the Hindi film industry. He brings the threat required for the role, defying the orthodox tendency to casting hyper-masculine Bollywood stars as a Telugu villain. That the opponent refers to itself as an ‘alpha’, which adds a dark humorous layer to its pathology.
Whereas Hit 3 Attempting to give a grand, dramatic action spectacle, it is not completely satisfactory. However, it is successful in setting the stage for the fourth installment. The next film is expected to marry the franchise on the expansion scale of the franchise, the thrilling thriller gave the first two entries to their different edges.
