Analysis :
But craftsmanship, elevators and staircases never made for a good plot (unless you're Raghavendra Rao who'd then quickly add a bunch of grapes and call it Gango-three). So we have a cylinder (Aarti Agarwal) added to fire up the proceedings. Now don't get us wrong - even if we do not like certain individuals and things too, we would never call them such names. In the movie, Nag himself calls Aarti a gas cylinder! It's a pity how the mighty have fallen to the level of being made fun of in the movies. Cylinders definitely need better treatment than that. All for no use, because that boyfriend shows everybody just why he is the villain's son - his expressions have absolutely nothing to do with his dialogue delivery! Also, he leaves Anu saying that she's having an affair with Venu. He might have been the villain's son, but he's not stupid. The way Venu and Shriya were singing and dancing in foreign locations, even we thought they were having an affair. But Venu and Shriya show how grossly mistaken all of us are. They never ever had an affair - how can we even think about them in that way? They only plan to have an affair, because they realise that they love each other. So Venu, even after being loved by a cylinder, and Anu, even after getting married to her old boyfriend, end up together because Nenunnanu
TeluguOne Perspective :
t's a good thing that the movie's called Nenunnanu because that's the only way the script can assert its presence. Why was there a scene about kids in the beginning? Nenunnanu. Why is Aarti Agarwal in the film? Nenunnanu. What is the need for so much violence? Nenunnanu. The only moment when the script and the director can proactively claim their presence is during the blooming period of the pure love between Nag and Shriya in the second half. And in a few comedy scenes. Keeravani's music is also a plus. Nenunnanu is completely a commercial venture - violence and songs for the masses; sentiment and emotion for the ladies (Shriya's falling out and making up with her family); romance for the youth; comedy for the kids; The only element missing is a magic wand to make all of the above look jointed rather than disjointed. No doubt, Nag looks and acts to kill in the movie, but I'm not sure if that itself is worth standing in the hot sun, sweating like a mating rhinoceros, to get the tickets and watch this.
