    Must watch Telugu film.

    One of the best movies in recent times in telugu. The only issue i had in this movie is with the Background music. The scenes which have to be elevated with good BGM are done poorly. The casting, performances and the songs are really good.

    This film gives a voice to the majority of the oppressed people in India. Indian culture or Hinduism is based on Caste system which is the most evil practice in the world. We should really welcome and appreciate the efforts of the cast and crew for making this film.

    Truly realistic movie , awesome experience

    Hats off to the director for having the guts to depict casteism in India, until now none of the Telugu director's had this courage . All the cast and crew did a terrific job . It's a must watch for all the lower caste people to know how ur Ancestors have suffered It's a must watch for all the upper caste people to know how ur ancestors were the cause of suffering..

    The In-between treat!

    The premise had an immense potential. But, some choices made by the creative team while writing sub-plots fail to create an engaging screenplay. The raw and rustic feel of the movie also takes a hit by the amateur act of the cast. Also, Director suddenly comes out of his way when he wrote some characters like the police officer who appears in the later half (you suddenly feel you're watching a regular movie). This very uneven narration would take you away. These genre movies need to be very engaging and very carefully written to give a long lasting experience.

    But, this seems to be written by a team who have different schools of thinking.

    Can you watch it? Of course, yes. It's not a bad movie in any form. It's just an in-between treat (neither raw nor regular)
