    True Love + honesty in a well said tale

    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.

    A cult for a reason

    No one can pull off Keerthi Reddy's performance in this movie today. May be except Anushka Shetty. No one re-create the freshness of this film. No one can emulate what PSPK did on screen. No one can match the highlight scenes executed by Karunakaran. No one can even come closer to the tunes and lyrics that went into the music for this movie. There won't be an other Toliprema. Hence sit back and enjoy.

    A Well Made Love Story

    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.

    Best Film ever in South India

    This is the best film ever in south India...Nobody denies this if you watch it...really fantastic story line and pawan kalyan is simply amazing.... and Balu character is simply made for pawan kalyan....hope we will get some more films like Tholiprema,Nuvvu Naaku Nachav,Kushi,Manmadhudu.. in future....Now these days tollywood lacks of best films like these....hope directors will concentrate on this to give a nice entertainment to the viewers.... and Nice to see IMDb with all database from Relangi to Sharon Stone...main story is a person who always enjoys the life and not caring about studies and seriousness in life will change the whole thing when he meets a girl Anu. then his life changes when he realizes that he is loving her...climax is so brilliant..this is the best climax i have seen ever...
