'Quick Gun Murugan' is directed by Shashanka Ghosh, and an outrageously funny script handled neatly by the director Shashank Ghosh.
Story:
The story starts in 1970's. Quick Gun Murugan (Rajendra Prasad) is a vegetarian cowboy who is against killing cows and other animals. He takes it as his duty to protect the world against non-vegetarians. Rice Place Reddy (Nasser) is on a mission to convert all vegetarian hotels into non-vegetarian hotels so that he could expand his chain of non-veg hotels. In the process, he confronts Quick Gun Murugan and succeeds in killing him. Quick Gun Murugan is taken to heaven and there he appeals to Chitra Gupta (Vinay Pathak) about how the fate has terminated his mission to save the world from non-vegetarianism. A convinced Chitra Gupta sends him back to the earth. And it is 2007 by the time he returns. By now, Rice Plate Reddy became all-powerful food baron who is on the verge of coming up with 'Mc Dosa' brand of hotels that serve only non-vegetarian dosas. The rest of the story is all about how 'Quick Gun Murugan' saves the world.
Performance:
Rajendra Prasad comes up with another entertaining performance. Language might be different, but the comedy timing is same for Rajendra Prasad even in English version. He is just perfect. He has to look serious and at the same time he need to make us laugh. His dialogue delivery is too good. Rambha is charming and sensuous as 'Mango Dolly'. Nassar entertains as a Rice Place Reddy who gets tensed whenever he listens to Murugan name. Raju Sundaram did the role of Rowdy MBA and he is nice. Ashwin Mushran's foreign accent is good. Vinay Pathak is apt as Chitra Gupta. Sandhya Mridul and Ranvir Sheroy did the roles of TV reporters. Anu Menon (Lola Kutti of Channel V) did the role of QGM's locket love.
Music:
The music of the movie (happy birthday tune for death scene) and the way cowboy music is played with Indian instruments and the background score also fine.
