Artist Performance:

Pawan Kalyan with beard looked different.He is stylish in action scenes and songs.His performance is the main asset for the film.Sarah Jane Dias is pretty but her performance is just ok lacked glamour.Anjali Lavania has a brief role sizzled in club song.Jackie Shroff as a gangster is good. Tanikella Bharani, Paruchuri Venkateshwar Rao,Atul Kularni are ok in thier roles.Sesh Adavi as a sadistic villain excelled well.Ali, Pawan Kalyan combo didn’t repeat thier combo.Brahmanandam as paparayudu gives us good entertainment.

Analysis:

First half starts of in a slow phase with calcutta backdrop,there is no hype for Hero intro director concentrated more to project in a simple way with stylish narration.Ela.. Ela Song in the first half is good melody with good picturisation.Interval action scenes picturised stylishly.There are some dragging moments Hero- Heroine
love scenes did not connect well.Lacked glamour quotient.Ali,Pawan combo is just ok compared to their previous films roles.

Second half moves to Heroine village in AP,The village atmosphere is picturesque ,Bramhananda,Pawan kalyan scenes are hillarious Paparayudu song is good Pawan Klayan danced well to his trade mark theen mar steps.Second half is better than the first half.Subbaraju,Jhansi comedy did not appeal.

Director Vishnu Vardhan with his technical team cinematography by P.S.Vinod,Music by Yuvan Shankar Raja and
Dialogues by Abburi Ravi succeeded in presenting a stylish movie but lacked to continue the tempo and intensity through out the movie.Yuvan Re-Recording is good.Couple of dialogues by Abburi Ravi are good.Producers didn’t stick to a regular format of films and they should be appreciated,production values are good.

Highlights:

Pawan Kalyan Performance.

Sylish presentation.

Ela.. Ela song and Paparayudu song.

Bramhanandam,Pawan Scenes.

Action Scenes.

Flip Side :

Slow narration.

Love trac between hero-heroine didn’t appeal.

Lot of dragging scenes.

Public Talk:

A big dissapointment for huge expected fans.Box office wise it may end up as an  Average grosser.and a talk that it is puli-2
