Bharat Ane Nenu (2018), also known as Dashing CM Bharat, is a Telugu political action drama directed by Koratala Siva. The film follows Bharat Ram (Mahesh Babu), a highly educated and principled young man who unexpectedly becomes the Chief Minister of Andhra Pradesh after his father’s sudden demise. Initially unfamiliar with the complexities of politics, Bharat quickly adapts and introduces radical reforms to eradicate corruption and inefficiency in governance. His relentless pursuit of justice and transparency wins public admiration but also creates powerful enemies within the political and corporate world.
As Bharat navigates the treacherous political landscape, he faces opposition from seasoned politicians and business tycoons who seek to undermine his rule. Meanwhile, his relationship with Vasumathi (Kiara Advani) adds emotional depth to the story. The film, enriched by gripping action sequences, a powerful narrative, and Devi Sri Prasad’s compelling music, delivers a strong social message on responsible governance and leadership.
