,Bhagwan hunts him to take the revenge him and kidnaps Sandhya. Finally, Bhagwan shoots Sandhya and Jai kills Bhagwan.
Actors Performance:
Pawan Kalyan: Pawan Kalyan is good in the character of Mafia member.His rugged full beard look, body language, dialogue delivery are not so great. But sadly the old jovial Pawan Kalyan is missing. At several places. Age is clearly seen in his face.
Sarah Jane Dias: She is good looks wise. But her weak expressions and asynchronous lip movement let down her performence graph
Anjali Lavania: She has a very little role and had a little screen space.
Others: Jackie Shroff, Tanikella Bharani, Atul Kulkarni and Subbaraju were as usual but new villain Adivi Sesh was excellent.
He showed varied expressions as a psycho villain and seems to have good future as a versatile actor on telugu screen.
Comedians: Brahmanandam, Ali and Jhansi performed well in the limited roles they are offered
Technical Brilliance :
Vishnuvardhan totally concentrated on making it a stylish movie but could not get his basics right. They story is a routine formula and the screen play is also a let down.The pace of the movie is let down at several places.
Yuvan Shankar Raja's Back ground music and PS Vinod's cinematography stood out of this technical debacle.They are simply awesome. Abburi Ravi's dialogues are just okay.
Final Say:
The movie is targeted mainly at Youth and fans. There will be very less repeat audience for the movie due to less entertainment. We will have to see how it fares at the box office.
