Review

Story

Chinni (Srikanth) and Kiran (Sai Kiran) are thick friends. Chinni Krishna injures a lady pedestrian in an accident with his car. Kiran, who happened to pass by that area, rescues her by admitting in a hospital. A beautiful girl Hema (Shaheen) is her niece. After coming to know that Kiran has rescued her aunt, she calls up Kiran and thanks him. Over the phone calls, they start liking each other. Incidentally, Chinni realizes that Hema is the same girl with whom he had fallen in love at first sight. He decides to foil Kiran's attempts to meet Hema. The rest of the film struggles around this point of Chinni playing spoilsport in the love between Hema and Kiran, who meets each other physically at the end of the film.

Artist Performances: Srikanth looks jaded in this negative role. Sai Kiran is just OK, as long as he doesn't dance. Shaheen's beauty and talent is wasted in this film. Other actors just manage to fit in their roles.

Technical Departments:

Screenplay - Direction: The film is one of the worst films that are made in the recent past. There is no imagination in screenplay or direction. Sumudra, who gave a decent hit Simharaasi early this year, fail to make an impact with this film. This film proved that Samudra couldn't handle sensitive love stories. Screenplay of the film is terrible.

Dialogues: Nobody can believe that Diwakar Babu, who has penned hilarious dialogues for films like Yamaleela and Choodalani Vundi, worked for this film. The dialogues in this film are dry and tasteless. Even when there are few comedy dialogues, the punch and timing in it is missing.

Photography: Photography of the film is amateurish. There is no proper lighting in most of the scenes. When the location changes, there is lot of difference in the quality of the shot. A video camera shoot can be far better than what Mr. Navakant has shot for this film. In most of the scenes, the dabbling make-up shows up on the artists' faces.

Music: A couple of the songs in this film are impressive. But the quality of rerecording is very bad. In the last reels, the bad audio mixing has shown up.

Production: Looks like Medikonda Murali Krishna is on a hurry to produce more films and make money on the wake of super success of 'Narasimha Naidu'. The production values for this film are of low standard. One would get a feeling like they tried to wrap the film with minimum resources and shoestring budget.

Analysis: This movie is one of the worst films that I have come in this year. This film has nothing to write home about. Each and every department made a negative impact on the audience. Avoid this film at any cost.
