·         Lack of entertainment

·         Screenplay

Performance: Nandamuri Balakrishna delivered a strong performance. He seamlessly fits the character and delivers impressive mass and punch dialogues in the Telangana dialect. Bollywod actor Arjun Rampal, who appeared in the role of a villain, impresses with his looks and attitude with solid villainy. Also Kajal Aggarwal impresses with decent looks and acting to the extent of her role. Finally, a crazy climax sequence on Sreeleela and Balayya is entertaining.  Sreeleela has given a natural performance in this film.  Rest of the cast perform accordingly.

Technical: Shine Screen’s production values in this film are outstanding. The makers of this movie have made it grander. And in the technical team, we have to say for Thaman, the back bone of the film. He took his track record with Balayya to another level with this movie. Also his songs are good. C Ram Prasad’s visuals are good. But the graphics are not really good. Tammiraju’s editing should be better. And when it comes to director Anil Ravipudi, he seems to have come out of the comedy track of his previous films and made this complete mass film. There is no problem here and there but he has led a very routine plot and screenplay. However, despite the routine, he has succeeded in highlighting the elements that Balayya fans want for the mass audience.

Analysis: The most disappointing aspect of this film is the actual story that runs in this film, but many sequences, emotions already seem like we have seen in many films. Kajal’s role does not have much scope. Also, the run time of the movie is also long and some unnecessary scenes have to be cut.  Also there is no logic in the movie. Also comedy is not that much of a workout at some places.

Rating : 2.75/5 - Enjoyable action and emotional drama
