Annayya

Nothing new about the story, but the music and Chiranjeevi appearing as Atma Rao have saved the film.Soundarya also does very well in a role where in one of the few instances the female lead gets a sizable role to play.The film is a full fledged typical family entertainer with good music and trade mark Chiranjeevi comedy. ManiSharma has given good tunes for this film and this has elevated the film.The other characters are adequate and Kota Srinivas Rao excels in the short role that he has been given. All said and done a regular Chiranjeevi pot boiler which one can enjoy because of his performance and the good music, not to mention his dances.The item song with Simran is an added attraction for his fans and it obviously gets the most attention in the film of Chiru's dances.

Leaving the story aside, everything else about the movie is good. As usual Chiranjeevi and Soundarya are at their best and the chemistry between them takes off from where it ends in "Choodalani Vundi". The songs too are good and picturized well. The story lacks punch as there is nothing new to offer. In all, its a good film especially for the Megastar's fans.
