The rest of the film deals with how Aadi achieves his objective.

Analysis :

You are bound to see a new NTR in this film. He trimmed his body a bit and did an extraordinary work as an artist. He carried the entire film on his shoulders. He did all the scenes with the consummate ease. Be it action sequences, romantic teasing scenes or dances! NTR turned out to be an extremely talented actor in comedy scenes. He is too good in those scenes. You can even see him cracking a joke on his shape in this film.Keerthy Chawla is very decent looking and glamorous. She suited the character well and is bound to win the hearts of audience with her action. But she looked little awkward and out of place when she wore ultramodern dresses and danced in the 4th song. Raja P Dev does justice to his role by giving a balanced performance. Chalapati underplayed his role very well as the God Father of NTR. LB Sriram gives a nice performance as the principle of the college with Amitab Bachachan (of old films) get-up. MS Narayana renders another good performance as an assistant to villain in the second half with his 'assam' comedy episode.

TeluguOne Perspective :

The first half of the film is stuffed with college humor and romance. The second half is focused on how NTR teaches a lesson to Rajan. Both the halves are equally entertaining. But the climax of the film is weakened with unnecessary extended fights. The story is a routine and predictable one. But it's purely the imagination of the director that saved viewers from getting disoriented. The ending scene in which the villain's wife and son help the hero in burying villain alive is little too cinematic and unimaginable. The movie would have been a better film if they took care of those sensibilities in the climax. Over all, it's a good film to be watched by one and all.
