When hes two-year old, Devadass (Kartikeya) parents notice that he gets attracted to the smell of alcohol and they take him to a doctor. The doctor informs that the child is born with a rare disease called fetal alcohol syndrome. There is no medicine for it. He advises him to serve the kid 90ML of alcohol daily.
The story moves forward. Devadas is now in his twenties. He falls for a physiotherapist Suvasana (Neha Solanki) who doesnt like people who drink alcohol.
Added to this problem, there is John Wick (Ravi Kishan), a factory owner. How will Devadas manage his love matter and the problem with John Wick
Does a disease like fetal alcohol disorder exist And such patients survive only by taking 90ML of alcohol daily three times Yes, is the answer from director Yerra Sekhar Reddy who debuted with 90ML and the movie deals with a protagonist who has this disorder.
The disorder itself sounds bizarre and the narration is even clumsier. Right from the beginning, the film goes over the top. Sequences with no iota of creativity or sensibility are dished out.
Hero uttering irrational dialogues like no relation feelings, no regional feelings is proof that this directors ideas are stuck in a time warp.
Hero saves a kid, heroine films the incident on her mobile and starts liking him. One day, the hero watches the heroine clearing the traffic and falls for her. From the 90s we have seen such scenes in hundreds of movies.
The villain is introduced with a weird dressing style. This is also cliched. Heroines father sees the heros real character (alcohol problem) on the road in an incident. This was also shown in many movies.
There are plenty of such routine scenes to point out. When a story is hackneyed, narration should be trendy. But this film lacks on both counts. As the film progresses, our patience decreases.
After Hippi, this is another boring film from Kartikeya. And the films ending inadvertently glorifies alcoholism (instead of milk, the heroine provides a glass of wine). The film is narrated in an old school way with trite ideas.
In a nutshell, 90ML tests the patience with its lousy narration and cliched sequences.
