‘Aadarsha Kutumbam-House No.47’ movie review: Venkatesh anchors Trivikram’s predictable yet entertaining family drama

In the Telugu film Aadarsha Kutumbam: House No. 47, the leading man (Venkatesh) acknowledges the age gap, in fact a generational gap, between him and his wife (Srinidhi Shetty). It is more than a passing reference, with several dialogues returning to the subject. Some of Venkatesh’s recent films have also acknowledged the age difference between him and his leading ladies, even if only in passing. What sets this film apart, marking his reunion with writer-director Trivikram Srinivas after more than two decades, is a later reveal that puts their relationship in context, explaining how the two characters crossed paths. It gives the audience just enough to draw their own conclusions while keeping them entertained with the comedy and suspense.
