RANA NAIDU

 


Cast- Rana Daggubati(as Rana Naidu), Venkatesh Daggubati( as Naga Naidu), Surveen Chawla(as Naina Naidu), Sushant Singh(as Tej Naidu), Abhishek Banerjee(Jaffa Naidu)

 The story starts with Naga Naidu father of 3 sons and a deceased daughter getting released from jail after being falsely convicted of murder. The first thing he does after getting out is confront the man who sexually assaulted his son. Naga was never a very present father which led Rana to strongly dislike his father.



Rana was the second oldest son and a “fixer of the stars” i.e. he was responsible for cleaning up the mess created by famous public figures. Rana was the person responsible for falsely putting his father in jail for a murder he never committed to getting even with his deadbeat father.


Rana’s brothers Tej and Jaffa were never their own people and mostly depended on Rana for advice. Tej is the oldest brother and is oblivious to taking hints from girls. After Rana explained to him what flirting is, he asked Ana a physiotherapist out on a date. The youngest brother Jaffa was sexually assaulted by a spiritual guru when he was young. In the second last episode, it was reviled that Rana was also assaulted by the same guru leading him to have serious anger issues.

Naga tries to make up for his past behaviour but ends up making things worse and it is shown in many incidents throughout the series. the series also throws light on many important issues of society like corruption, extortion, and male victims of sexual assault.



The series is beautifully written with exceptional acting by the cast members. The story is really addicting and leaves the audience asking for more. This is proven by being in the TOP 10 OF the NETFLIX’S WATCHED SERIES for over 2 weeks.
