Trust me you will never want the film to end as you start to live inside the film, that's the magic of 'Tholiprema'.

Pawan Kalyan's finest performance till date. (The status he is enjoying today, he owes a lot to 'Tholiprema')

Keerti Reddy is a Goddess in this movie. (Debut film of her)

Vasuki as hero's sister lived in her role. (Wonderful selection of her for this character)

Deva's music and film's background score moves your soul.

Director Karunakaran, i have heard he is a painter and if that is correct then this film is his best art till date.

The climax scene in the film is just superlative.

This film ran for 365 days and i remember it was released second time even, such was its popularity.

I remember my brother and his friends who used to go and watch this movie almost every other day in 1998 when it ran in theaters.

10/10 movie. Mightily Recommended !!

Wonderful film forever. Love, family, friends, fun with sentiment is superb.

Witty. Genuine. Hear touching. It made Pawan Kalyan an actor. His character looks real and reletable. Good Direction.

A lot of love stories tend to focus on making major life sacrifices for the sake of love, but this movie sends a really positive message about love and how to view it. The emotions, comedy, and drama all work to provide a good love story which is of good quality. This movie stands out as one of Pawan Kalyan's best performances, he was really at his peak at the time with Tholi Prema, Thammudu, and Kushi. Keerthy gave a really convincing performance and the comedy was spot on. The relationships between each character were picturized and designed quite well. Karunakaran's best work, no doubt about it.

Family of the boy and girl plays a key role in the film making it real and close to our heart. These days we dont even know who the girl parents are she just says in one dialogue about them, but in this movie the revealing of her life is beautiful. How the girl values relations and why she is the way she is we will understand. Same with the guy, we do understand him his brothers,sister,grandfather everyone. It is a beautiful journey to travel with the characters in the film coz they are all so beautiful even Balu's friends. Such a sweet and honest movie it is with lovely music. So refreshing and climax is inspiring too.
