Krishnarjuna

Arjun (Vishnu) is innocent and lives with his grandmother (Manorama) who will be working for rich landlord Pedababu (Nasser). Arjun acts as bodyguard cum assistant to Satya (Mamata Mohandas) the rich arrogant sister of Pedababu. Satya gets engaged to another rich businessman(Gilli Dev) but an astrologer predicts that whoever marries Satya will die. So Pedababu makes Arjun the scapegoat and gets him married to Satya hoping that after Arjun's death Satya will be remarried to the rich man. Lord Krishna (Akkineni Nagarjuna) then enters to rescue Arjun. The rest of the story is how Arjun avoids death. High Lights:

The movie's basic plot was derived from Hollywood flick 'Bruce Almighty' This is second time Nagarjuna acted in Mohan Babu's banner 'Sri Lakshmi Prasanna Pictures'.

The first film was 'Adipathi'.Nagarjuna and Vishnu teamed up for the first time. This is Mamata Mohandas' second film in Tollywood after 'Yamadonga'. Mamata Mohandas paired with Vishnu for the first time.

"A mentally unstable pregnant woman gives birth to a boy in the temple and breathes her last. The doors of the temple are closed, as people believe that the birth of such a woman's child in 'garbhagudi' is a bad omen. The boy, named Arjun (Manchu Vishnu), grows up under the guardianship of his grandmother (Manorama). He goes to work as a bodyguard to Satya (Mamta Mohandas), the sister of landlord Pedababu (Nassar). Arjun and his grandmother live in the out house of Pedababu's bungalow. Arjun is ill-treated by everyone. When an astrologer says that Satya's first husband will be killed and she will live happily with her second husband, Pedababu plans to get Satya married to Arjun first. Then, he conspires to kill him and get Satya married to a rich man. However, Lord Krishna (Nagarjuna Akkineni) comes to Arjun's assistance. Arjun gains some powers from his companionship with the Lord and overcomes the evils that threaten his peace and family life. He also succeeds in reopening the doors of the temple. Arjun then dies by jumping of a tall building because of his faith in Lord Krishna who revives him a minute after his death. The film ends on a happy note. Actors like Manchu Vishnu, Nagarjuna and others have done their best. Everyone contributed their best to elevate the scenes. The songs are melodious and the background scoring is good.Some romantic and comedy scenes are the highlight of the movie. Vishnu Manchu's acting and performance is good from him in sentimental and emotional scenes. "

This has got to be the most boring movies I have seen in my life.....The makers of the movie HYPED this movie too much because its the immediate film after Vishnu's hit Dhee and Nagarjuna's guest appearance. The first half of the movie is very slow and hackneyed....but the film picks up at interval when Nagarjuna comes in....But the second half again starts very slow and crashes at the end....

The only thing I liked about this movie was Nagarjuna....He gave life to the movie (even though it was for like 15 min altogether). I was ready to leave the theater because of being sick of the first half, but when Nagarjuna stepped in, things got a little relieved....

Now the things I HATE about the movie....First, the characters. Vishnu's character as an innocent boy who is not intelligent is SO routine and lame. Mamta Mohandas as a rich, snobby girl who doesn't give a f*** about Vishnu but loses her heart to him. Secondly, I didn't like the music at all....there was only one OK song "We are coming" but it comes during the end credits. Technically, the movie is poor as well. Cheaps fights and very very poor production values. After seeing a "rich-looking" film such as Yamadonga, one would wonder why Mohan Babu lacked richness in Krishnarjuna, when he played second lead in Yamadonga!!!

Unless you are a DIE-HARD fan of Nagarjuna and want to see him for 15 min, I suggest you avoid this flick.

"Vishnu came up before the audiences with Krishnarjuna under his home production. Another specialty is that the Vishnu co-starred with Yuva Samrat Nagarjuna and Mohanbabu is appearing in a special role. Moreover, the film's director is P Vasu, who gave a blockbuster like Chandramukhi. With all these specialties, the film has raised many expectations among the audiences.

Though everything appears at the interval bang and remains on the screen in the second half, Nagarjuna wins the hearts of the audiences all through the film. His perfect comedy timing, very casual dialogue modulation, easy histrionics, typical body languages are really a big asset for the success of the movie. Vishnu has also improved a lot in his body language."

Vishnu looks at his best. He has shown good ease and excels in fights and dances. Production values of the film are grand. Direction is good in parts. The first half of the film is just good. Though the interval bang aroused some curiosity, the director succeeds to capitalize on it. Manchu Vishnu timing with Nagarjuna works well for the film. The film has got good production values and though the making cost may be much, the presentation was rich. The costumes department took good care in providing the right outfits and the art department also showed grandeur.
