Putting logic aside, such movies thrive on mass appeal – the moments which give you a high. Brahmanandamm, for a change, makes you laugh while Vidyu’s Tamilian act is stereotypical and overdone. Catherine’s MLA act is reduced to a joke thanks to the characterization, Rakul is given limited scope with just sobbing to do. Even seasoned actors like Srikanth and Sai Kumar are wasted with character sketches that are very vague. In fact, the entire film rests on his shoulders and he is the only silver lining to this otherwise average package. How convenient, eh?Īllu Arjun is in the new zone of “oora mass” in this film and manages to carry it off pretty well. Then there are the bad guys who have been chasing Rakul for “four days” – their aim was to kill her but they wait till the hero is in the vicinity. For instance, a common man following an MLA all over the place asking her to fall for him raises a serious question of security and why doesn’t she book him for harassment? Also, for someone who has been chasing a woman for the entire first half of the film, it seems pretty inane that he’d immediately move on to another woman in a jiffy. In such films, we don’t expect logic for sure but it’s absurd how some things pan in this film. In process of narrating this story to us, Boyapati ticks of every box that defines T-town’s mainstream cinema – the eventual dramatic confrontation of the rivals, the hero harassing a girl into falling for him, usual gravity defying stunts, punch dialogues, flexing of muscles, reddening of the eye and of course the two heroines with completely different personas – which are a key part of the formula. Life takes a turn when he brushes the shady Vairam Dhanush (Aadhi Pinisetty) the wrong way. We are taken into the life of another such guy, Ghana (Allu Arjun), a jobless young man who left military (apparently to bring justice to the society) and is whiling away timing beating up goons.
With that grand welcome, begins the journey of every wastrel hero we have met on the Telugu silver screen innumerable times over the years.

Movie Review: A frozen moment in the air – enough for all the fans to shout their lungs out, whistle multiple times and even shower the glittering confetti – just before the hero makes a grand entry is an indication that you’re in for a ride that defies logic and only aims to entertain (or so, they say). Synopsis: In the process of narrating the story, Boyapati ticks of every box that is key mainstream cinema in our side of the world.
