      Pathetic attempt with a very illogical script.....

      When I saw the movie I was very curious and feel excitement about this movie. NBK is one of my favorite Telugu actors. He has good numbers of fan following and he is a good actor. I like his acting style and the most enjoyable thing of his acting is his dialogue delivery. All of his movies has lots of crunchy masala type dialogues. I like that kind of dialogues. I am telling this because this movie is very anticipated for me and without reading any reviews or comments I was watching this movie. But after watching this, this is one of my biggest nightmares and this is the awful experience I have ever experienced. Really pathetic and I want my time back. this not a joke and we the audience need clarification about this very terrific and horrific movie. Absolutely pathetic.

      NBK plays a triple role for this movie this is the most terrible joke. The story is very boring, nothing new and very outrageously created. The story writer actually concentrates nothing and I think he has no cinema related knowledge. The screenplay is very pathetically written and when the quality is the concern the output is fearsome. The director (I don't want to pronounce his name because this guy is another joke) has done a brilliant "atrocious" job and showed us how a bad movie would be created. This is the perfect example of a shameless direction. As the lead character, NBK has done an awful job and his characters are total bitter.I don't want to tell other technical aspects because I have no energy to write about these after watching this pathetic movie.

      If you want some flat "fun" this is the perfect choice for you. If you want to make angry someone you can gift a copy of this film to him!

      Comedy, Action

      Baala Krishna is serene as Harish Chandra Prasad. He reminded of Senior NTR in several shots.The character is very shot but will entertain fans. And the middle get up as Rama Krishna Prasad forms the central part of the story. The character is very powerful. His dialogue delivery is excellent and is extremely effective as always. His get-up is highly ferocious and rough. The other character of Babi is also passable and has come very good comedy scenes and fights. First half of the film is good with some excellent comedy. Second half goes a bit wayward with family drama interrupting the flow.The plus points of the film are Balayya and the heroism elevated scenes for which fans go mad. However, the inconsistency in the story narration had let down the movie a bit. The commercial success of the film depends on how masses embrace this film.
