Brilliant movie. Perfect tribute to a fantastic human being, Mallesham

What a movie!! #Mallesham. Tight focused narrative. Technically brilliant. Breezy music. Humor nicely blended into narrative. With one of the very best casting I have ever seen. Every character just lived it. The super inspiring story of Mallesham springs to life, in this brilliant piece of art! A must watch film. #malleshammovie

Excellent, wish it was longer!!

Excellent movie that you can watch with complete family. The story is told so beautifully. Each actor is tailor made for the character. Superb acting by everyone. The screenplay, direction excellent. The rural setting, city setting is captured so realistically. The people speak so affectionately to each other. No show of. Super!!! Wish it was longer and showed the struggle for version 2 and 3 of the machine involving learning coding and micro controllers!! Enjoy the movie

A biopic of real life struggle

Mallesham is not a movie but a celluloid version of the struggle of a sincere son. Mallesham's struggle for designing a machine to be used to eliminate the physical labor by his mother is a story of struggle, disappointment, determination and learning. He learns electronics even though his academic education is stopped with high school. His struggle to design that machine is a lesson for many. He simply proves that 'strong determination' will lead to ultimate success.

Best Telugu movie in recent years

Mallesam is a beautiful attempt to screen the Weaver's survival issues. This is a rare movie in telugu movie industry that is so natural and so realistic.

The struggle and Innovation process was very clearly shown in this movie. I wish this movie will grab nandi awards from State government.

I really appreciate the efforts of director and expecting more movies from him.

Motivational and Realistic

This is an incredible, motivational and realistic movie which takes you through the life of Innovator Mr. Mallesham. You will only see the Characters not the Actors, that's the wonderful thing and shows the effectiveness of the film making. Thoroughly got involved/immersed and enjoyed, must watch film specially with entire family.
