Story: Krishna- Krish (NTR) and Indu (Samantha) are in love, Bhoomi (kajal Aggarwal) and Indu are good friends. Indu requests Krish to act as boy friend of Bhoomi to save her from getting married to another person (Ajay) in the Village as she is keen in pursuing her higher studies.  What happens when Krish enters Bhoomi’s village, what changes take place in the Village; how hero convinces her family members forms the rest.

Performances: NTR is good, he underplayed the character well. Samantha is okay and looked glamorous, Kajal is limited to traditional costumes. Prakash raj is good as usual, Srihari played yet another supporting character. Kota Srinivasa Rao is good as Grand father. Venu madhav’s role is good. Brahmanandam evoked some laughs with his typical action. Ahuthi Prasad and Raghu babu are okay.  Cinematography is good. The Art direction and editing are fine. Music by Thaman is Average. Story is an Old one; Screenplay is good at some places. Direction is Okay.

Analysis:  First things first the movie has no New story; you find the story gathered from a few hit films we have watched in the recent past. We have watched many stories where hero impresses the Heroines family members. This is another one of that kind.

                   The Music is Average; “Sureedu” Song is catchy. Thaman rehashed his earlier Tamil and Telugu Songs. The songs are well picturised with good Cinematography. The Background Score is not impressive. Art direction is good. Dialogues by Koratala Siva are okay at some places (even though reused many of Trivikram’s old Dialogues like “Nacchakapovataniki kaaranalu Vuntaayi Kaani Nacchataniki vundavu”, “Bhayam tho koodina Vinayam”).The fights are not as effective as they are filled with excessive wire work. At a point you may feel that you are watching a fast forwarded version of a TV serial. The Interval episode almost gives you a feel as if the movie is going to end up then only.

There are some scenes which have come out well

------The scene where Raghu babu and Ahuthi Prasad come back from the fields after work and get respected by the Family members.

------Prakash raj and Srihari getting united.

------Kota Revealing the truth towards the Climax

                    The director hasn’t concentrated on how the brothers got separated so he hasn’t thought much and given any strong reason why they got United also. The Story is an old one but the Screenplay is good in places. The Direction is Okay. The Production values are okay.

                                Jr.NTR played the role of a Lover Boy  to attract the family crowd, He has done his bit well, most of the time he stands still and stares at others’ dialogues, to be frank his characterization is not well etched(It’s shown from the beginning that Krish has a soft corner for Bhoomi- But it’s not established why???). Brahmanadam evoked laughs in the second half with his Bommarillu father Role. Venu madhav’s role is entertaining (even though some scenes appeared repetitive).Venu madhav and Jr.NTR is a good combo when it comes to Comedy. They don’t disappoint this time.

                  If you are an ardent fan of Jr.NTR then watch the movie with less expectation, as you are not going to find any hardcore and hard hitting Dialogues, Rocking Songs or steps and Fantastic Stunt Sequences. This is like any another family Drama in large quotients with a touch of love element and entertainment; story which you have found earlier done by many youthful actors like RAM or SIDDHARTHA.

                       The soft Title and lack of expectations on the Movie and the coming festive season may favour the output. The movie may fare moderately and there are chances of becoming a hit if NTR is accepted well as a cool Lover boy.
