Analysis:

Even though Ajay Bhupathi came up with a routine story of lovers getting separated from each other by their parents, he gained brownie points as a writer & director with the gripping portions of climax. This film’s climax stands out as the best portion of the entire film and maybe the climax portion is the attracting factor for the makers to make this film.

Ajay scripted the screenplay in a way such the scenes and the acting looks like in a realistic manner and he is fortunate that actors rose up to his expectations with their performances. In the first half, the relation between the characters & the romantic scenes got priority and in the second half, the hero’s love failure facet has got the importance.

However, with his style of the detailed screenplay, the duration of scenes & some unwanted portions came as hurdles to the screenplay. On the whole, he made a decent attempt with RX 100 and hope his direction would get enough applause from the audience.

Technical Aspects:

Music from Chaithan Bharadwaj got thumbs up from the audience and especially his BGM suited to the mood of the story.

Plus Points:

+ Heroine
+Romantic Scenes
+ Climax

Minus Points:

-Routine Story
-Slow Screenplay

Final Verdict: RX 100 travels at average speed.
