Great performance by Jeeva. Mammotty ,Subhaleka Sudhakar , Mahesh manjrekar did well. It is bit challenging for directors to make the biography as interesting movie, but Mahi picked the important aspects, very nice screenplays without heroic elevation. Only fictitious role is Subhalekha Sudhakar, that great idea to of director to show role representing of multiple leaders.

Director could have used Jagan's samaikyandra stance and Nandhyala bi-election circumstances to show more about Jagan's values.

Technical team is irked well, Music and cinematography are good.

Everyone except Jagan's hater will love this movie.

A biography has to show all the ups and downs, this film just focuses on political agenda of jagan. Where is reality? He's a corrupted politician, recently i travlled a place called mopi devi temple near machilipatnam, i saw his posters "siddam" and when i look down i saw worst roads, zero development and people are still living near river where buffalo bathing, laundry, and people bathing there, is this the development? How come his party associates get paid 5000 from people's money and collecting valuable data ? Some people might hate me because of my comment, but if you are ready to experience his worst development go to any places in AP and check.

Thank you #MahiVraghav ! The way u deal with #Yatra2 was superb , emotional and heart touching.

It's a movie made to rethink the values, rethink how you are towards with the fellow being.

Mammootty reprises his role as YS Rajasekhar Reddy in the second part, making a brief appearance. His presence enhances the significance of the role.

Jiiva's portrayal of YS Jagan Mohan Reddy is impressive. His method acting is exceptional.

Suzanne Bernert's portrayal of Madam bears a striking resemblance to Sonia Gandhi, making her an ideal choice for the role.

Subhalekha Sudhakar adds lot of strength to the story.

Director Mahi V Raghav's Jiiva and Mammootty-starrer Yatra 2, the sequel to the 2019 film Yatra, released on Thursday. The film is a biopic on the life of the current Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister YS Jagan Mohan Reddy, while the previous film was based on his father, ex-CM YS Rajasekhara Reddy's life. A monsoon night. The then chief minister of undivided Andhra Pradesh, the late YS Rajasekhara Reddy (Mammootty), stirs out of bed earlier than usual and walks to the foyer to find his son YS Jagan Mohan Reddy (Jiiva) also unable to sleep. They are unable to express their feeling of unease in words. At YSR's request, Jagan hands him a glass of water, and, as he begins to walk away, he turns to look at him, unaware that this would be the last time. YSR takes a sip of the water. The thunder sounds louder and he grimaces for a fleeting second. In director Mahi V Raghav's Telugu film Yatra 2, this scene is a crucial one.

The scene envelops within it the brief interaction between the father and the son against the ominous weather conditions and makes us wonder what if YSR had lent an ear to his wife Vijayalakshmi or Vijayamma's (Ashrita Vemuganti) apprehensions and deferred his chopper ride? The sequel to the 2019 YSR biopic, Yatra, narrates the events leading up to the rise of YS Jagan. Its eulogising tone and the timing of the film's release, months before the elections, makes its intentions clear. While YSR and Jagan are depicted as leaders who do not err, the opponents are all wily and crooked. Within that framework, it also tries to be a compelling story of a father and a son. It finds that groove in a few scenes such as this interaction on the rainy night, before it becomes an increasingly one-sided political drama.
