When Reddeppa realizes that his daughter and Seenu are in love, he swings into action by trying to kill Seenu. Rest of the story is all about how Seenu secures the hand of Sailaja and how he unites the forces of followers in both the warring groups to teach their masters (Reddeppa and Nayudamma) a lesson or two!
Analysis :
Gopichand: Gopichand is terrific in this film as hero. He has got rugged looks and aggressive body language. His dialogue delivery is impeccable. His comedy timing is excellent. The producer Pokuri Babu Rao made sure that he tried to magnify the heroism of Gopichand at every found occasion. The scene involving Gopichand's challenge to villain got the maximum applause from the audience. Others: Actress Sameera Benarjee is just average. TV anchor Jahnavi stole the show with her comic portrayal of Muslim girl character 'Fathima', who speaks broken Telugu. Devaraj is competent. Raj Kumar followed the style of Jaya Prakash Reddy in body language. Prakash Raj is terrific and proved to be the lifeline towards the climax of the film. The scene in which he narrates the greatness of Rayalaseema turned out to be the most popular scene in this film.
TeluguOne Perspective :
First 45 minutes of the film is excellent. The film's tempo drops down from the scene where the hero expresses his love for heroine in front of his master. The second half of the film meanders through unnecessary twists (performed in Teja's style). However, Prakash Raj provided the much-needed oxygen towards the last 25 minutes of the film with his dialogues and performance. Climax of the film is simple and effective. This film is definitely worth a watch for the brilliant performance of Gopichand and it's first half.
