Gautamiputra Satakarni

I genuinely enjoyed every scene of this wonderful film

What a performance, screen presence and dialogue delivery by #Balayya. Hats of to you. Jai Balayya Jai Jai Balayya. #DirKrish, you had a great vision and superb time sense, you teach-ed a lot to the TFI. At present you emerged as one of the Great Director from TFI to Indian Film Industry. Superb acting by #Hemamalini, #Shriya, #KabirBedi and other Co Stars. #SaiMadhavBorra, as #Rajamouli said your Pen is like #GPSK's Sword. You created the Dialouges of History for the Historical Film. From now on wards you emerged as a Top Writer. #Chirantan, all songs, music and RR is Excellent, your Music is a big asset. Congrats to the whole Team of #GautamiputraSatakarni. Saho Satakarni Saho. This is ours History. This is ours Pride. This is our Legacy.

Nbk has done a good job even in this age looking younger then before.

Screenplay should have been better!

Music was not upto the best. Considering this as a historic movie it is justified.

Overall it's a good movie to watch.

One of the great historical films ever made in Indian cinema. The story plot makes the audience complete engaged throughout the run time of the film. Performances from Balakrishna sir and Shriya mam is completely fantastic.

This film riding high on the "Telugu self respect" wave has hardly anything about the Telugu culture. Supposedly a magnum opus by Krish, known for his hard hitting films, this film wanes when it comes to the trademark of Krish. I was totally disappointed when stellar actors like 'Subhalekha' Sudhakar and Tanikella Bharani reduced to seconds and minutes respectively. Actresses Shriya and Hema Malini too don't have much scope to display their acting prowess. But the biggest positive is how well Balayya acts departing from his much stereotyped roles. He delivers the well written dialogues with elan. Balayya is the sole reason this film causes the viewer to sit. 'Sirivennela' Sitarama Sastry's lyrics are poetic and thought provoking. But Chirantan Bhatt's music is too loud and the lyrical beauty is lost in 2-3 songs. The background music is loud and unending. The fight scenes are laughably choreographed. The director included four battles resulting in shallow character sketches.

Why should you watch this film ? - Balayya's acting prowess - The beauty of Telugu which is seemingly waning in this age - This film is a breather in an industry ridden with routine themes and genres

Disappointments: - Not much of Telugu culture - Deplorable background music - Shallow character sketches - Hastily made film ending in poor graphics - Laughable stunts and fights

Verdict: One can't constrict books of history into a 2hr 30 min film. A tight schedule and budget with a story of this sort renders the product ugly. Endpoint: I spent my money on this and got its value rather than the routine and boring crap churned out day by day.
