Analysis :

Bala Krishna played duel role in this film He is very naughty as a lover boy and serious as the police officer. The highlight of the film is the get-up of Chenna Kesava Reddy. He did extremely well in portraying emotions. Shriya is cute and her role is limited to three songs and a few teasing scenes. Award winning actress Taboo is reduced to a character artists in the film. But she excelled in her small role. Devayani acted as the sister of Chenna Kesava Reddy. She did very well in a couple of emotional scenes in second half.Jaya Prakash Reddy excelled in his role as villain in flashback scene with his typical seema lingo. MS Narayana did a comedy role that is very similar to his Aadi posture. Brahmanandam have a couple of hilarious scenes as 'Seema Sastry'. LB Sriram did a 2-minute role as Hippy Lahari.

TeluguOne Perspective :

First half of the film is pretty slow. Second half of the film is average. The characterization of Chenna Kesava Reddy is not done effectively. The way he kills his opponents after releasing from jail is total anti climax. The scenes like Tabu dieing, Jaya Prakash killing the family of Bala Krishna did not get the right responses from the crowds. Flashback scene of the film is not effective. The biggest drawback of the film is that neither son nor father got elevated in the climax. We have to wait and see what the masses in AP have in store for Chenna Kesava Reddy.
