This movie I have been watching since I was a little girl. Even though I speak very little Telegu, I find that I need not know how to speak the language to understand what is going on. My father and I still make jokes about little lines that I remember. I dare not type them, for I do not know how to spell them, only how they sound. This movie is truly amazing, and an instant classic! I love how the giant changes into so many different things, and the bow and arrows used. The stunts are perfect. I am in the middle of ordering a DVD copy, so I may watch it all the time. I fell in love with music after listening to the soundtrack, hearing songs that me and my father still sing, once again, not daring to write to words, because I don't know how to spell them.

You are not alone in thinking this is the best movie ever made, rgulla. In a poll conducted in AP, this movie was voted the best telugu movie ever made, and I totally agree.

What makes this movie fascinating is, in my opinion, this is only movie ever made that speaks to all ages at the same time. Harry potter is a children's' movie, we all know that. Similarly there are adult, young people's movies etc. But this is the only movie that a child can see for the magic and Gatothkacha. A young adult will watch the love story, and finally, an older adult will see the interaction between the two families, the politics that are played out. To top it off, for the retired person, this is a religious movie! No other movie, in any other language, is able to reach out to every moviegoer of every age.

One of the best movies in indian cinema... Watching NTR garu in Lord Krishna's role is a treat..😍

This film stands as a true masterpiece in Indian cinema, excelling in every aspect. The story is not just great but exceptional, weaving a captivating narrative that keeps the audience engaged throughout. The screenplay is meticulously crafted, showcasing the talent of the writers in bringing this epic tale to life. The dialogues are powerful, leaving a lasting impact on the viewers.

The performances in this film are nothing short of extraordinary. NTR's portrayal of Lord Krishna is awe-inspiring, capturing the essence and charisma of the deity effortlessly. SVR delivers an unforgettable performance as Gatochgach, leaving a lasting impression on the audience. However, it is Savitri who truly steals the show with her portrayal, delivering a performance that can only be described as "never before, never again." Her talent and dedication shine through, making her the soul of the film.

The music in this film is timeless, with melodies that resonate in the hearts of the viewers long after the credits roll. The visual effects are simply mind-blowing, pushing the boundaries of what was thought possible in that era.

Director K. V. Reddy's brilliance shines through every frame, showcasing his genius in bringing this monumental film to the screen. His vision and direction are commendable, making this film a true gem in Indian cinema.

In conclusion, this film is not just great, but a cinematic marvel that deserves all the accolades it has received.

First I will start saying I watched the shorter color only around 162 min. I would have liked to see the full version but this was the one I could get my hands on.

Honestly I was very doubtful I would enjoy this movie before watching it. But I had some hopes since I always like good adventure and mythology movies.

I was a bit confused in the start about some of the characters as I am not knowing much about the Hindi religion and do not have one drop of Indian blood in me. But I thought the story was inviting and moving ahead at a good pace and you got interested in getting deeper into it and find out what would happen. After a while you find out the main problem in the movie. At that time you are not one second in doubt how it will end for the two young lovers, but you cannot foresee the exiting journey to the end.

I would call this movie a romantic adventure comedy. The romance is the main thing in the movie. But when you see that there are gods involved you already know it will not be without magic.

The music in the movie is fine. I am honestly not a lover of this type of singing/dancing but the acting was good and it was used to progress the story and there was not too much of it in my opinion. If you do hate the singing/dancing then you can use those moments to get some fresh coffee :-)

The acting in the movie was great by those that meant most to the story line and I had a good time with the movie and some laughs. Some day if I see the full length movie I will most likely give it a try.

I would recommend this movie to people that love a good adventure with some magic included. I was fascinated by this movie and it really should be much better known by people outside India.
