Artists Performance
NTR: NTR changed his style in this film. His dialogue delivery mellowed down a bit and histrionics are little subtle. NTR’s wardrobe is good in this film. NTR kind of dances are there in two mass songs (3rd - Gola Gola & 6th - Nuvvesukunna dress) to entertain the masses. His performance in hospital when Rajiv Kanakala dies is very good.
Others: Sameera Reddy is adequate as heroine. Prakash Raj is pretty good in a vital role. Sonu Sood is perfect as the main villain. Jeeva steals the show as a comic baddy. Supreet (Chatrapati fame) is good as villain’s brother. Raghu Babu is neat. Rajiv Kanakala has an important role.
Technical Departments:
Story - screenplay - Direction: Story of the film is adequate with good quota of three major elements - Family orientation, love thread and mass conflict. What makes the story more interesting is the screenplay and narration technique. Director Surender Reddy used ‘quick flashback technique’ (showing the effect first and then rewind it to the cause) one time in Athanokkade film where last scene of an episode is shown first and then the film is rewound to show the entire episode in detail. In this film, he used that technique in 6-7 episodes in an efficient manner. If those scenes were narrated in regular format, it would have been very routine. Director also had pretty good expertise in shot-making and conceiving of action episodes. However, Surender Reddy should seriously consider toning down the usage of optics and jazzy narrative techniques for unimportant scenes. These optics should be used selectively to derive the maximum output. The latter part of the second half reminds us of Ram Gopal Varma’s James (heroine reaching the edge of cliff and climax rain fight). Director could able to narrate the film effectively without revealing the main conflict point in the first half. But once the main conflict point is out, the film moves on predictable mode. The director could not balance the content in the film as 70% of the film revolves around heavy duty action episodes. The following episodes got instant applause
