Naga Chaithanya and Tammana New Telugu Film 100% Love Movie Review:
Well Its seems to be Chaithanaya had big hopes on this film, Director Sukumar Doesnt disaapoint the Chaithnaya And His Fans . Although Its was an Average Film. But It will Work on the Screen.

Story:
Balu Mahendra (Naga Chaitanya) is top ranking student. His maradalu (uncle's daughter) Mahalakshmi (Tamannah), comes from village to stay with his family and study in Hyderabad so that she can get good marks in studies. Balu is sort of narcissist and doesn't like if other students get top rank. With the help of Balu, Mahalakshmi studies well and surprisingly stands as college topper which irks him. Slowly they fall in love but fail to express it. When the time comes to express their feelings to each other, ego problems erupt. They part ways and soon engage to different persons. Rest of the movie is about how they realize their true feelings.

Artist Performance:
Naga Chaitanya who has done the role of an intense lover in YMC follows it up with a fun-filled character of Balu with a mental complex in 100% Love. He wore spectacles and a light beard and it suited the character very well. It is tailor-made character for him. His diction and accent is also changed in this film and it sounds little like that of Allu Arjun.

Tamanna looks fabulous in the movie. Her traditional hairdo in the beginning of the movie is not attractive, but she is gorgeous when she lets her hair loose in the latter part of the movie, She is an asset to the movie. Sukumar has shown bias towards heroine character in this movie as he etched her role as a magnanimous, understanding and empathising girl.
KR Vijaya and Vijay Kumar did the role of grandparents. There are around 10 kids who entertain you will their mischief and innocence in the first half. Satyam Rajesh did a cameo and it is really good. MS Narayana did his second most preferred character (after drunkard) - college principal. Anand and Tara Alisha are good as beaus of lead pair. Naresh and Dharmavarapu Subramanyam are okay.

Technical And Other Departments:
Although the film is entirely shot on interiors, cinematography by Prasad is not at all good. Especially the slow-motion scenes that are made at 500 Frames Per Second look patchy. Devi Sri Prasad's songs are good to ear and foot tapping but they are not good on screen. Yet, songs of 'Infatuation' and 'Diyyallo Diyyallo' stand out. As a writer of the movie, Sukumar succeeds in parts. As a director, he proves again that he has great visual flair but he's slowly losing grip on taut narrative skills.

Analysis:
The film comes across with a rather stylish look and the essence of love and relationship is dealt in a neat way. While the first half passes off breezily with good dose of humour, drama and romance the second half slows down in momentum due to melodrama and stale sentiments. Overall, the film is rich in technical and production values while content are good in parts. At the box office, this will appeal to the youth audience largely while the family audience will have mixed reactions. Overall, this could be an above average grosser.

Final View:
100 % Love offers some lovely situations, some time pass entertainment in the first half. Second half runs on predictable manner but it also some 'touchy moments'. The film has many blemishes and but on the whole, it has ingredients that appeal to youth audiences better.

Its a good Film To watch this weekend.

Rana Daggbati New Telugu Film Nenu Naa Rakshasi Movie Review:
After Leader Rana Had Big Hopes on this Film. But It seems to be Not Worked So Far That Big to Rana. Even though Ileana Hot Shots will not helped the film. But the rana was improved very much From His Debut Film.

Story:
A professional killer Abhi (Rana) falls off for the charms of a beauty Meenkashi (Ileana) who works at a cafeteria. A rowdy harasses her and Abhi kills the guy too. On the other hand, a person is secretly uploading videos of people who kill themselves on to you tube. The person turns out to be Meenakshi. And a police officer (Subbaraju) is on the look out for the person who is uploading these videos. What makes Abhi turn into a professional killer? And what prompts Meenakshi to upload these videos? And how does their love story begin? These questions are revealed in the later part of the story.

Artist Performance:
Rana has tall body and is easy on eyes but he lacks performance skills. He looked good in his debut movie Leader because of that subtle characterization whereas this role requires high energy levels, which he lacks. Style wise, he's okay. Ileana looks gorgeous in songs and she also performs well in some key scenes. Abhimanyu Singh as villain, Subbaraju as cop, and Kota in a cameo appearance do justice to their roles.

Technical and Other Departments:
Production quality is good, over all commercial aspects seem to be in place, but Puri has swallowed more than he can chew in this film. Four characters in the film portray four different takes on life and death (essentially suicide). That is essentially four stories in one film. Sincerely if Puri had attempted one straight story he would have done some justice. This is way beyond his capacities. Music Was Average.

Analysis:
Off-beat film with a lot of confusing ideas thrown in! The suicide theme for the film is suicidal. In an era and time when the normal human being has little time to contemplate on life, where is the time to contemplate on death? Audiences expect fun and thrill in films, that this film fails to provide. Rana has been promoting this film as an off-beat one, a film which has a different story in a commercial format. He even insisted that Ileana's presence in the film was to heighten the commercial aspects of this essentially far removed film. Is the film really so, is it a film which is really off-beat made in a commercial format? In a way yes, but to expect people to understand suicides and suicidal tendencies in this format of a film is expecting too much. The film fails to explore all the aspects of this complex issue.

Final Veiw:

Though Puri picks up novel storyline, the movie is hardly digestible to regular audiences. Discerning audiences can see the merits in the first half, but again the second half spoils all the brownie points it has in the beginning. As the film progresses, Nenu Naa Rakashasi gets dreary and monotonous. A very eccentric thought told in bad way.

Prabhas New Telugu Film MR.Perfect Movie Review:
After Darling Film The Carzy Couple Prabhas and Kajal Comes Again with New Scrpit in Mr.perfect. The Fans Also had On big Expectations on this Film. Prabhas didn't spoil Expectation and grabs a another Hit in to his Account.

Story:
Vicky (Prabhas) is expert in gaming software and lives in Australia with his friends. He hates adjustments in life and thinks that one shouldn’t sacrifice one’s comforts for others but his father (Nassar) tells him to adjust in life to get more contentment in life. His father asks him to get married to Priya (Kajal Agarwal), his friend’s daughter, when he comes down to India for his sister’s marriage. Vicky agrees to see Priya for 10 days closely – sort of dating – and then will let them know his decision. Priya also reluctantly agrees. Their relationship begins on negative note but soon they hit off well and fall in love. When everything is going well, Vicky drop a bomb that he is not in favour of marrying Priya as she has sacrificed all her personal likings for him, leaving Priya in shock. Vicky meets Maggy in Australia and starts dating her. Fate brings Priya to Australia and how Vicky changes his perception towards life and relationships forms the rest of the drama.

Artist Performance:
Prabhas gave a good performance and he looks stylish. Kajal Agarwal was lovely and she looks very pretty in traditional dresses, performance wise she scores in emotional scenes. Taapsee looks glamorous and made her presence felt. Nasser was natural, Prakashraj was brief but good, Sayaji was okay, Brahmi failed to impress, Raghu Babu was loud, the lady artistes such as Pragathi, Rajitha, Tulasi filled the screen and contributed.

Technical And Other Departments:
The film has stunning visuals and carries cool and bright color pattern through out the movie in sync with the theme. Cameramen Vijay Chakravarthy has been following the same pattern in all his films - Bommarillu, Konchem Istam Konchem Kastam , etc. Though the visuals are pleasant, as a cameraman he is not bringing much variety.

Dialogues are pretty good (by Abburi Ravi ). Devi Sri Prasad has rehashed his old tunes but they are effective on the screen and enhanced the mood of the movie. Editing is neat. Director Dasaradh ’s success lies in its presentation. There are his trademark styles - strong characterization of heroine, some bhavukatha, and thought provoking one-liners here and there. Producer Dil Raju has thrown in huge budget to look the movie look cool.

Analysis:
The film takes off on a bright note and though there is nothing novel in the concept, it is the narrative and the breezy pace which takes it smoothly. However, things change during the second half and the pace comes down. There is an overdose of emotional melodrama and few critical scenes don't have the required conviction. Technically, the film is well made and the intention of the makers is also appreciable. However, if there was focus on comedy and emotional quotient, the film would have tasted proper success. At the box office, this will be a reasonable grosser.

Final View:
Mr.Perfect can be watched with your family and friends for its neat narration with right casting (especially the jodi of Prabhas and Kajal), good music, and cool visuals. The movie scores big on packaging than novelty. Director Dasaradh has come up with a winner after long time as it would definitely appeal to youth and family audiences. It resembles to several of other super hit romantic dramas, and uses all the tricks but still it works, for its packaging.
Its Family Treat Film.

Pawan Kalyan New Telugu Film Teenmaar Movie Review:

By Comparing past film this film gaved some hope for Pavan Kalyan For his Furture Cine carrer.

Teenmaar is a Copy and Paste film of bollywood Bolckbuster Love Aaj Kal. Jayanth didn't take any risk for this film so he just copied and paste the Love Aaj kal Movie in telugu. Jayanth is very good Director of Copy & Paste Films.

story:

The film is about love of the present generation and bygone era. Michael Velayudham (Pawan Kalyan), a chef in Cape Town, meets chirpy beauty Meera and both of them hit off well. They start dating and fall in love. When Meera has to move to India, Michael proposes to break it off, as long distance love relationships don’t work. They part ways but Michael’s friend Senapati (Paresh Rawal) tells that real love can lead you to any distances and lengths and begins to narrate his friend Arjun Palwai’s love story. Arjun (Pawan Kalyan) and Vasumati (Kriti Kharbanda) take us back to the end of the 70's era in Kasi. Their story begins. Rest of drama is about the parallel stories of Arjun going to great lengths to win his love and Michael trying to win back Meera.

Artist Performance:

Pawan Kalyan: AsUsal Pavan Shows his strenth in acting, But In Mike Charcter some parts in film his Performance is not upto the mark and done over acted. But In Arjun Character His Performance was Very good.

Trisha is cute as always. Kriti Karbandha did the role of lady love in the flashback episode. Though she looks pretty good, her hair-do and make-up didn’t appear natural. Australian girl Danah has done the role of hero’s girlfriend. Paresh Rawal is fine as a restaurant owner and story narrator. Ali entertains in a small cameo as a taxi driver. Sonu Sood is apt as a gentleman. Mukesh Rushi, Sudha, Tanikella Bharani etc are okay.

Technical and Other Departments:

Trivikram’s dialogues form the major highlight of the movie. There are many punch dialogues (antha chinna nadumu intha baruvu ela mostundi) as well as meaningful ones (baledani ammani, kopamga vuntadu ani nannani marchalemu kada). Songs scored by Mani Sharma are good. However, the re-recording could have been better. The spot dubbing done for Pawan Kalyan affects the audibility of dialogues. Cinematography by veteran Jayanan Vincent is fine. Art direction is alright. Editing should have been better.

Analysis:

The film is the remake of the Bollywood hit 'Love Aaj Kal' and while most of it has been repeated, few changes were made in the script and extra scenes were added to suit Pawan Kalyan's image. While the first half takes off a bit mildly, the real momentum begins in second half. This is a film for those who believe in the value of loved ones and know how to respect a relationship. Overall, the film scores with good technical values and production quality but given the backdrop, this will appeal more at the Urban centers and may not have the same impact at B, C centers. At the box office, this has a hit written all over it.

Final View:

Teen Maar is good entertianment film and its good film to watch this weekend!!!!!

Rating: 2.75/5

Jr.Ntr New Telugu Film Shakthi Movie Review:
In a big Expectation of Ntr Fans The Film Shakti was Released But It seems to be ends With Low note. Except the Rich look in the film there is nothing new in it. The carzy combination of Meher Ramesh, Jr.Ntr and Aswinidatt will not gaved Good Outputs. This film like niether Dissapointed nor Satisifed the Audience.

Story:
Story unravels in the backdrop of Egypt with a person bringing Sonu Sood’s head and handing it to Sonu’s wife Puja Bedi. In order to demolish India and take Shakti Peetham’s in control which is Sonu’s aim, Puja Bedi trains her elder son as a cruel man. Aishwarya (Ileana), who is the daughter of Central home minister (Prabhu) escapes to Jaipur for a trip with her friends. Prabhu safeguards the Black diamond which was given by Nazar, later he leaves to foreign in search of a gangster (Jackie Shroff) for asking him the Rudrashulam, which the latter denies.Unknowingly, Ileana carries the black diamond in her bag and Puja Bedi’s men tries to attack her for the sake of grabbing the diamond from Prabhu. In this regard Shakti (NTR), who is a guide, saves her from the goons and Ileana falls for him. Here comes a twist, where NTR discloses that he is an NSG Commando secret agent. What is the story behind the black diamond and Rudrashulam? How does Shakti safeguards the Maha shaktipeetham's and kills the demons? Is the crux of the story.

Artist Performance:
NTR, who has been given A1 Star title with the film, has done dual roles. He looked handsome in the role of Shakti Swaroop and did the role at an ease. NTR excelled in the dances and rocked in the role but when it comes to the flashback episode, NTR’s role in Maharudra is a disappointment to fans. The costumes did not work with NTR and he looked odd. Meher failed to showcase him in a unique look and the role as well is wrapped up at a rapid pace.Ileana looked ravishing in the movie. This is the comeback film for the Sexy Siren after a brief gap of her Saleem. There isn’t much scope for the lady performance wise but she has her importance, when it comes to the story connection. Ileana is attractive and did an impressive job in all her three songs.Prabhu as Ileana’s father and central home minister, Jackie Shroff as a gangster were appreciable in their good roles. Shayaji Shinde, Vinod Kumar are impressive while SP.Balu is good in his brief role. Puja Bedi in a villainous role is mediocre while Sonu Sood has no scope for performance. Brahmanandam’s role is wasted while Manjari Phadnis is seen in a couple of scenes in a very small role.

Technical and Other Departments:

Ashwini Dutt has spent lavishly on Shakti, and it can be seen visually in different locations. Sameer Reddy’s cinematography and Anand Sai’s art work need a special mention. The locales in North India, Dubai and Egypt are well captured. The basic concept of the Shakti peethams is a distinct and commendable idea from Meher Ramesh but execution wise, he totally failed through the screenplay. Connecting the story with the Egypt episode is useless with a missing fact. A couple of songs by Mani Sharma are good but the background score failed to lift the momentum especially in the flashback episode. Editing by Marthand.K.Venkatesh is patchy.

Movie Analysis:
The first half of the film runs on a slow pace in a typical Telugu film style with NTR as a guide and few comic scenes on Ali, Krishna Bhagavan, Dharmavarapu Subramaniam. The interval bang is quite good, where NTR reveals the look of an NSG Commando secret agent. The last ten minutes before the interval leaves you pin high hopes on the second half. However, the second half of Shakti lets down your expectations completely. The Maharudra (NTR) characterization in the flashback episode lacks punch and energy and the costumes were another let down. The climax of the film is wrapped up in a hurried way with illogical sequences and senseless script.While NTR’s performance, production values and the cinematography are the plus points, Meher Ramesh’s direction and screenplay, editing and Rudra’s characterization are the let down’s.

Final View:
The Film was Started with high note and Ends with low note, Shatki is only for the Die hard Fans of NTR Family.

DONGALA MUTHA MOVIE REVIEW

Film: Dongala Mutha
Cast: Ravi Teja, Charmee, Lakshmi Manchu, Brahmanandam, Prakash Raj, Subbaraju, Supreet, Brahmaji, and Krishna Maya.
Dialogue: Venu
Written by: Nilesh
Music: Amar Mohile

Rating: 2.5 /5

Ramgopal Varma New Sensational Film (Five Day Shooting Completed) Dongala Mutha Telugu Movie Review:
Story:
A couple Sudhir (Ravi Teja) and Rani (Charmee) head for a holiday by car. In the midst of a forest, flat tyre of the car brings them to a resort nearby. Three gangsters (Supreet, Subbaraju and Brahmaj) act as manager, receptionist and staff member of the hotel. Sudhir and Rani hear strange sounds from next to their room and the hotel staff informs them presence of a ghost in the room. When Sudhir and Rani try to escape from the hotel, things take twist.

Artist Performance:
Ravi Teja looks different from his use films, as he has put up spectacles. Charmee's acting is irksome with her irritating dialogue delivery. Lakshmi Manchu in her brief role impresses. Subbaraju, Supreet, Prakash Raj and Brahmanadam are okay. Brahmaji looks like a joker than a villain with his body language. Sunil is seen in a brief role.

Technical And other Departments:

There is no director of photography. Five technicians (camera operators, you can say) are used from FX school and their work is neat. Ram Gopal Varma's strange camera angles including constant focus on Charmee's below the belt area is embarrassing to watch. Background musical score by Amar Mohile is okay.

Movie Analysis:
Dongala Muthaa is the first film in South India to use the Canon 5D cameras (that are normally used for still photographs) for filming. The movie is also credited of completing the entire film in just five days with the stars as big as Ravi Teja, Charmee, Brahmanandam and Prakash Raj and with minimal crew members sans director of photography. What is more, the stars and the technicians didn't take remunerations, or so they claimed. As part of the film's promotion, Ram Gopal Varma said that the film was made to prove the fact that movies can be produced and made on even small digital cameras without the fancy technical equipment and nor does it require more number of working days to make a movie. If the film's sole purpose is to prove this point, well, the director has succeeded in establishing that films shot on Canon 5D cameras can be screened without any hiccups. But the question is - are movies made to prove a point or to give an experience to audiences? Dongala Mutha is neither a thriller, nor a comedy.

It is made up of some hotchpotch of silly scenes and parade of the actors around a hotel. Most of the scenes are straight out from some B-grade TV series as every actor utters same dialogue in the frame. In one scene, an actor utters a dialogue - 'Ghantalo Vastadu' (in a hour he will come), and the camera moves to each actor in the scene next and each of them say same dialogue - 'Ghantalo'. This act is repeated several times in the movie, proving the fact the movie has no basis of script but shot at the whims of director on the location. Although the run time is short (about 90 minutes), it gives the feeling of a lengthy movie. Dongala Mutha is yet another disappointment (to use the mild word) from the maverick director Ram Gopal Varma.

Final View:

As a director Ram Gopal Varma has made several classics in his long career but his recent films are giving shock after shock to the audiences. After badly made Appalraju, he comes up with yet another script-less, pointless movie. Only solace is that it doesn't give headache as his Appalraju gave.

Charmi New Telugu Film Mangala Movie Review:
This time Director Tulasi ram Fails to impress the Audiance With his New Subject Mangala when Compare to this past Film Mantra. Even though these two are quite different subject to each other But Some of Thrill& suspens was missed in this Film.

Story:
A gripping tale, the story begins with Mangala (charmy), a successful actress in film industry. She has a crazy fan (Vijay sai) whose father (pradeep rawath) is a powerful black magician. When the fan comes to the city to meet Mangala, an incident occurs and Mangala misunderstands the fan tried to misbehave with her. The fan gets bashed and hurt by this, he attempts suicide and lands in hospital. Before his death, he wants to see Mangala but despite his father's requests, Mangala doesn't respond as she is busy with her shooting. The black magician is enraged and he casts a deadly spell on Mangala. What happens from there forms the rest of the story.


Artist Performance:
Charmee comes up with a riveting performance and proves that she is the right mix of talent and immense sex appeal. Pradeep Rawath was haunting and makes his presence felt strongly. Vijay Sai was apt, Subhash was good. Uttej and Saptagiri generate few smiles, Chitram Seenu was apt, the others did their bit as required.

Technical And other Departments:
The director has come up with a thoughtful storyline and while the presentation was good, the narrative was the problem. The dialogues were slippery, the script was hollow at key points but the screenplay was tight. Background score was the major highlight but songs were unnecessary and not upto the mark. Cinematography is catchy. Editing was alright. Costumes were suiting the situations while the art department was realistic.

Analysis:
The film was gossiped to be a step higher than the successful 'Mantra' film and this time, a different element was included. While the first half goes off breezily and creates the right kind of fear, it is the second half which falls down in a spiral and takes away the juice. The drag in the climax is another setback. The focus was more on trying to shock the audience than on the content and how it must be executed. The technical values were good but at the box office, it might take the film to a safe zone, nothing more.

Final View:
The Film was started at Good note, But it was not so good end.

AHA NAA PELLANTA MOVIE REVIEW

Film: Aha Naa Pellanta

Allari Naresh New Telugu Film Aha Naa Pellanta Movie Review:

Story:
Subbu (Allari Naresh) is a software engineer. He leads happy life. One day he attends a party and he wakes up in the morning finding himself in bed with a girl named Sanjana (Ritu Barmecha). That girl has three gangster brothers (Srihari, Subbaraju and Samrat) and they fix Subbu's wedding with their sister Sanjana. Trouble is that Subbu already has a girlfriend (Anita) and he doesn't want to marry Sanjana. But does he have guts to say no to these gangster brothers?

Artists Performance:
It’s a little sophisticated role for Allari Naresh and he makes sure that his brand of comedy is intact. It is Srihari who grabs the limelight with his nice dialogues and entertaining performance. Brahmanandam is hilarious in the final parts of the movie. The combination of Srihari and Brahmanandam worked well on the screen. Anita is good as girlfriend of hero and Ritu Barmecha is okay. Vennela Kishore is good as love guru. MS Narayana entertains as marriage broker. Thagubothu Ramesh (Ala Modalaindi fame) appears again in a similar role and entertains. Nagineedu, Subbaraju, Samrat, Ahuti Prasad etc are okay.

Techincal and Other departments:
On technical front, music director Kunch Raghu's work is good. Camera work is pretty average and so are other technical departments. Debutant director Virabhadram passes the test in his first film. Story and scenes are copied from several films but he has provided entertainment, so that is his success.

Movie Analysis:
Though the story based on a korean comedy, director Veerabrahmam made sure that comedy written between Allari Naresh, Srihari and Brahmanandam works well on the screen. There are certain points in the movie that needs improvement. Allari Naresh continues his ‘safe hero to bet on’ image successfully with this movie as well. On a whole, Aha Naa Pellanta is an okay entertainer despite having certain inspired stuff.

Final View:
Aha Naa Pellanta is a time-pass flick. Don't look for any original jokes or ideas but it provides some good hilarious moments thanks to Srihari and Brahmanandam in the second half.

Kudiritey kappu Coffee Telugu Movie Review:
AFter Some Disater Films Varun Comes Again with his New Coffee like film. this time Some much it has Been Woked For varun when compared to his past films.

Story:
The story is about a young guy's dilemma over love as he experiences a tragic incident in his friend's life. Seshu (Varun Sandesh) is rich guy's son. His family owns a guesthouse in Karnataka. When his friend ends life after a failure in love, Seshu vows not to fall in love. To forget this incident he decides to go to resort that is now run by his father's teacher Malati (Sukumari). There he meets Malati's granddaughter Lasya (Suma Bhattacharya) who has grand plans to make the guest house turn into a resort. Soon Lasya falls in love with Seshu but he doesn't reciprocate. Rest of the movie is all about Seshu and Lasya unite in the end.

Artist Performance:
It’s a different characterization for Varun Sandesh and he does justice to his role. It’s a serious character. The only negative in Varun Sandesh’s work in this film is his diction (which keeps improving from film to film, but not good enough yet). The director offsets it by making heroine tease him about his diction. Suma Bhattacharya is okay in the role of female lead. Bheemineni Srinivasa Rao did the role of hero’s father and he is apt. Sukumari who did the role of elder lady is fine. The guy who did assistant to Varun gets a few brownie points. Siva Narayana (Amrutham fame) has a lengthy character and his work in conflict scene with Tanikella is good. Tanikella Bharani did the role of an indecent man who runs ‘Decent Lodge’.

Technical And Other departments :
The basic story of the movie is about how a guy who hates love finally falls into love. A coffee shop in a lush green outdoors is taken as a background. It is a simple story with simple premise. First time director Ramana Salva has a great visual sense and a poetic taste. He penned few of the scenes really well. But, he couldn’t execute them convincingly on screen. Since this film don’t have regular commercial padding, it is extremely important for any director to get the key emotional scenes right. Narration of the movie is slow. The climax part of the movie appears rushed up and it not convincing enough. However, the directors needs to be commended for sticking to the core subject and not indulging any commercial padding.

Movie Analysis:
Kudirithe Kappu Coffee is a simple film with a predictable story line. The plus points are visuals, music and awesome locations. Lack of dramatic impact and hurried-up climax are the weak points. I wish the director would have executed the script with better emotional impact. On a whole, Kudirithe Kappu Coffee is a typical multiplex film with nice visuals/music.


Final View:

Ram Gopal Varma New Telugu Film KSD Appala Raju Movie Review:


well It Seems to be this was not worked For Ramu That So Big when Compare to his Previous Film Mani and Other ones. But It Was Not so Bored Film.



Story:
Appalraju (Sunil) hails from Amalapuram and is a devoted movie lover. He spends his most of the time in watching films in Rambha theatre in Amalapuram for which, his father (Chalapati Rao) scolds him. Appalraju decides to leave to Hyderabad and hopes to comeback to Amalapuram only after he becomes a big director in Tollywood. He goes to his friend Subbadu (Rajesh) in Hyderabad who also leaves Amalapuram for becoming a hero, but in vain. Appalraju however get in touch with Raakhi(Raghubabu) a producer. Raakhi reads Appalraju’s script Nayaki and says he would help him. Appalraju decides to cast Kanishka (Sakshi) and manages to get her call-sheets. However, a corporate firm manager, who have to provide finance for the film says they will finalize the film, only if the film has a big hero like Babu (Adarsh). When everything is set for his movie to take off, the hero and heroine of the film Babu and Kanishka who are in love initially breaks up. What hurdles Appalraju face? Will Appalraju’s movie starts rolling forms the rest of the story.



Artist Performance:
Sunil tried to be subtle but ended up with a tame show. The lack of interest is seen in his expressions. We can’t blame him as the content of the film is that bad that even a senior actor like Sunil too fails to be in his sorts. Ajay and Adarsh are okay as the egoistic heroes and Sakshi Gulati performance is painful to watch. Swathi once again goes overboard as the director asked her to be so. Raghu Babu is fine and Harshavardhan is good. Brahmanandam’s comedy falls flat and Tanu Roy’s over action is unbearable. Raja Ravinder, Tanikella Bharani, Suman Shetty, Venu Madhav etc did according to the directions of RGV.



Analysis:
KSD Appalraju, though starts on an exciting note, looses its tempo in no time due to its weak story, bad screenplay and horrible climax. RGV fails to manage audiences in connecting to the film. Unnecessary characters and their scenes make us irritate at times. While First-half of the film ends on an unexciting note, the second-half totally tests our patience and when it comes to climax part, you totally loose your patience and run away from theaters
Plus Points - Songs and Some satires on film industry
Minus Points- Story,Screenplay,Climax



Technical And Other Departments:
Though KSD Appalraju storyline is interesting, Varma totally failed in its Katha (story), Screenplay and Darsakatvam (Direction). The movie takes off on an exciting note, but has lost its grip, making it uninteresting in no time with a stale story and poor screenplay. Cinematography is ordinary, Dialogues are not interesting. Editing is not impressive. Background score by Koti was just alright and only the first couple of songs are good to watch out for. Production values are poor.



Final View:
KSD Appalaraju is a satire which has gone wrong completely. Ram Gopal Varma and his film have turned laughing stock in an attempt to laugh at others. This is a good example for how not to make a film.

Manchu Vishnu New Telugu Vasthadu Naa Raju Telugu Movie Review:

This vishnu was Succeded when Compare to his Previous Films. This Film Seems to be Worked For Vishnu.

Story:

Venky (Vishnu) is a boxer and leads life happily. He accidentally meets Pooja (Tapsee), sister of a rowdy aspiring to become a politician Narasimha (Prakash Raj). Both Pooja and Venky frequently caught at various dos, which gives wrong assumption that they are lovers. Thinking that his sister's in love with Venky, Narasinha attacks Venky's family. Venky retaliates to this. Rest of the drama is all about conflict between Venky and Narasimha and real romance ensuing between Venky and Pooja.

Artist Performance:

Vishnu Manchu: Vishnu Manchu has positive body language in the movie and he is looking good. He changed his dialogue delivery a bit to suit the modulation of Mohan Babu. He has tried new steps in Dabidi Dibidi song and he is very flexible with his movements in this song. The fights in the movie are also well performed by him.
Others: Tapsee is glamorous in the movie. Brahmanandam who starts off in a routine note creates good entertainment in the second half. This character is a cake walk for Prakash Raj and his dialogues are neat. Satyam Rajesh, Siva Reddy and Babloo acted as hero’s friends. Ali’s cameo is ineffective. Ajay didn’t have an effective role in the movie. Sanjay Reddy (CEO of Gemini) did the role of Vishnu’s brother and he is camera-friendly.

Technical and Other Departments:

Story - screenplay - direction: It is an interesting story with nice screenplay. The hero and the heroine doesn’t meet each other till interval point, but lots of things happen around as everybody thinks that they are dating each other. This film also sports some interesting screenplay that we find in Seenu Vytla’s movies. However, the director who could able to come up with decent writing couldn’t convert it efficiently onto the screen.
Other departments: Cinematography by the veteran cinematographer S Gopal Reddy is good. This is the first straight Telugu movie to be shot entirely by digital camera. You will not see much of a difference between the output of digital camera and the regular camera. Music by Mani Sharma is good and all the songs are shot well. My favorites are Hello Everybody and Padha Padha. Since the couple meet only during interval, most of the songs are more like imaginary ones from the third character’s point of view. Dialogues are okay. There is a good dialogue on the greatness of Telugu and a ‘punch’ dialogue on Andhra, Rayalaseema and Telangana. Stunts are well choreographed. Production values by 24-Frames factory are good.

Analysis:

The film comes across as a decent attempt to give entertainment given the fact that this is a debut attempt from the director. While the first half was a bit jerky due to technical hiccups and weak direction, it picks up right before the interval. The second half has the actual punch and though it got dragged at few instances, overall it gave a good feel. The film as such justifies its genre and has the required ingredients for keeping the audience busy. At the box office, this will land in safe zone.

Final View:

Vastadu Naa Raju has interesting plot line and provides some good laughter but the movie lets you down as it progresses, especially climax sequences are big disappointment. Comedy and rich visuals are its strength.

Nagarjuna New Telugu Film Gaganam Movie Review:


Nagarjuna was back again with Gaganam. This feel Seems to worked great for Nagarjuna. This back to back film for him. this Film Was Statisfied all Catagories of audiance along with Nag Fans.



Story:
A terrorist group hijacks a star-jet airplane from Chennai. The plane, with 75 passengers and crew, is brought to Tirupati airport on an emergency landing. A minister, a leading actor, a doctor, a father, a small kid and her family from Pakistan and a father are among its passengers. The terrorists demand their important leader Yosuf Khan be released from the prison. Home secretary Vishwanath (Prakash Raju), National Security adviser and other top bosses also come down to Tirupati to negotiate with the terrorists. National Security Guards officer Ravi (Nagarjuna) is also brought in. But government refuses to take commando operation immediately although Ravi insists on doing. Succumbing to terrorists’ demands, the government releases Yousuf Khan but he gets killed in a road accident when he is being brought. Now the drama starts, how do Ravi and his team accomplish their mission and frees the passengers from hijackers?



Artist Performance:
Nagarjuna: Nagarjuna is probably one of the huge heroes of Telugu cinema who doesn’t give a damn about formulas and commercial elements if he sees something special in the story element or in the director. Gaganam is a kind of movie where Nagarjuna’s image helps the movie in attracting wider range of audiences. Nagarjuna plays the role of a National Security Guard who is torn between government decision and his natural instincts. Nagarjuna came up with a fabulous performance as NSG commando.
Others: Prakash Raj plays the role of negotiator and he is excellent. Thalaivasal Vijay is a traveller with military background and he brings believability to the character. Sana Khan did the role of one of the passengers. Brahmanandam plays an entertaining role of a out-of-favor film director. Bharat Reddy is convincing as an associate of Nagarjuna. Poonam Kaur did air hostess role and she is a good actress. Harsha Vardhan plays the role of a TV journalist who is desperate for breaking news. His work in the altercation with Nagarjuna is pretty good. Prithvi plays the role of a film hero who captures terrorist Yousuf in one of his movies. Ravi Prakash did the role of one of the pilots. Most of the other actors belong to other languages. The guy who did the role of an actor is perfectly cast.

Technical and other Departments:
K V Guhan should be showered praises for imaginatively putting the camera as the story revolves either in interiors of plane or an office room. Shot on digital Red Camera, Guhan has come up with some innovative angles. Most part of the story runs in the inside environs of a plane or in the office of airport. So it is tough job for a cameraman to show variation. Guhan comes as winner. The other technician who should be commended for his work is art director. The set of airplane (erected at Ramoji Film City) is almost like real. Background score is alright. Dialogues by Anuradha are okay.
Director Radha Mohan scores in direction and screenplay. He handles the dramatic sequences with ease and maintains the curiosity throughout the movie, not sidestepping from the main plot. Production values are on superior range although it is low budgeted movie.



Analysis:
Gaganam film is made against many odds. There are no songs (duets/situational). There is no heroine. There are no different locations (90% of the movie takes place in airport). There are no mass dialogues. And it sports Nagarjuna, who is the most romantic hero of Telugu cinema playing the main character. A film of this nature should be appreciated as the success of these kind of movies will augment more and more novel films to be made. The plus points of the movie are Nagarjuna’s presence, novel plot and realistic story telling. On the flip side, Telugu casting for small characters would have been good and humor orientation for a serious plot might dilute the effectiveness. On a whole, Gaganam is a decent film which should be watched with an open mind.



Final View:
Gaganam is different movie and is racy hijack drama. Nagarjuna’s charming performance, director’s narration in the second half, and short run time are its strength. It may cater to niche audiences, but all those who crave for good cinema would definitely appreciate it.


Its a good film to watch this weekend.

Jagapathi babu new Telugu Film Jai Bholo Telangana Movie Review:

This time Director Comes With an Telangana Sentiment, all Though He had very Great Expectation On this Film But It Seems To be Not Worked For Shankar. With big Influence of KCR on as He wrote the lyrics. This Will Not Helps the Film For Big Run In Theaters....

Story:
well Coming Into story Amma Odi, run by Jayamma (Smrithi Irani), provides shelter and food to the helpless. Her husband Bande Gopaanna (Jagapathi Babu), father-in-law and forefathers all died for the Telanagana in the long history of the movement. Now, her son Varshith (Sandeep) doesn't want to become another martyr in his family by participating in the on going movement for separate Telagana state. He falls for the charms of Sahaja (Meera Nandan), who hails from Vijayawada. Rest of the movie is about how Varshith joins the movement and also wins his love against all odds.


Artist Performance:
Jagapati Babu donned three roles and he is convincing as Telangana martyr. It is a guest role for him though it is vital to the story of the movie. Smriti Irani is impeccable as the lady who inspires the people around. Gaddar danced for his own song
and he is extremely energetic and inspiring on the screen. The guy who did the role of Chari is commendable. The couple who acted as leads (Sandeep & Meera Nandan) and alright. Most of the cast in the film adds freshness (except for AVS, Nagineedu, Janardhan Maharshi, Siva Reddy).

Technical and Other Deparments:
Story - screenplay - direction: This movie has a love story set against the backdrop of the current Telangana movement. Director Shankar who has always been good when it come to capturing social problems made sure that there is an emotion while narrating the real incidents and struggles in the villages of Telanagana. However, the love story is not effectively narrated. He has juxtaposed the TV clippings with the happenings in the movie. Since Telangana is an ongoing problem, the director didn’t give any typical climax to the movie, but stated the wish of Telanagana fighters. Making a film on a subject like this is a difficult task. As a director Shankar has succeeded in showing the problems faced by Telangana people in villages. He has also criticized selfish leaders from all areas (including Telanagana).

Other departments: Music by Chakri is very good. Jai Bolo Telangana song and Gaddar songs are excellent. The title song was used as background music in key moments. I loved Gaddar’s awesome performance on screen in a song. Cinematography is alright. Editing by Kotagiri Venkateswara Rao is fine. Dialogues are well written.

Movie Analysis:
The film is basically an attempt to promote a particular movement in the name of sentiment. While the first half is lighted with the regular elements of romance, some comedy and songs, the second half gets serious. Overall, this is a film with low quality technical values, poor and biased content. The very act of encouraging students to commit suicides or kill is a major blunder. At the box office, this will appeal to a select few while the rest will take it easy.

Final View:
If you are a great fan of Shankar and his team watch it because it is Only For Telangana Lovers!!!
Other ones watch it at your own Risk...!!!!!!!

Gopichand New Telugu Film Wanted Movie Review:

Story:

Rambabu (Gopichand) is a happy go lucky chap who does nothing for career, and doesn’t mind a ‘fight’ for the heck of it. Inspite of this, his parents love him completely because they think they have earned enough for him. Rambabu comes across Nandini (Deeksha Seth), a house surgeon. When the girl saves his mom’s life, Rambabu falls for her and chases her. After almost following her everywhere, saving her from goons few times, Rambabu gets frustrated and asks her what she wants him to do to prove his love for her. The girl asks him to kill Basava Raju (Prakash Raj) and company, as a revenge for killing her honest cop father (Nazar) and her entire family. Rambabu goes after the goons and kills them one by one.

Artist Performance:
Gopichand has done similar kind of roles, good number of times and it’s time for Gopichand to take special care on scripts and avoid films like Wanted, which has a routine stuff with thin storyline. Deeksha Seth is certainly the USP of the film with her enough oomph and looks. She did reasonably well to her role, but needs to improve interms of acting to make it big in Tollywood. Prakash Raj is perfect as villain but it’s another regular role for him. Subbaraju is apt, Ahuti Prasad, Chandramohan, Jayasudha and Nazar did their justice to their roles. Brahmanandam generates few laughs and Ali is ok in his limited role.

Technical and Other Departments:

Cinematography is just about good, though the songs have been shot decently well. Chakri’s music for the songs is good too, but he should do something more to accentuate emotional scenes in a movie. Dialogues are funny when required, but end up being too loud in ‘drama’ situations and too contrived sometimes. Editing is too sloppy and the actions sequences are too long to be digestible.

Analysis:

Cliche works to an extent. Almost every story we see has already been told, but it is the presentation that gives it a different feel. This is exactly where the second half of Wanted fails. Even though the writer wanted to add depth to Deeksha’s character by showing her at strange places with stranger men, we never know what she was doing there with them! The flashback episode, which was used to reason her character, focuses more on gore than on some originally done content! As a result we have a family killed in most inventive ways possible minus the emotions that such a loss can bring. Once we know the flashback anything after it becomes lengthy and the movie still takes few songs and fight sequences to come to an end.

Final View:

Wanted is a predictable revenge saga, that doesn’t have anything really exciting. It is only for Gopichand’s fans.

Hostel Hindi Movie Review :

Story and Movie Analysis:
Last week in Yamla Pagla Deewana we saw a man hitting Sunny Deol with an iron rod and the rod bending. In the past too we have also seen films like Joshilay where two people have fist fights from dawn to dusk and yet manage to be on their feet. These films are meant to be over the top, larger the life and fun and hence such scenes are accepted. But if you promise that your film will stick close to reality and then show two men beating each other with iron rods and yet they keep fighting it can only mean that you are taking your audience for granted. Everyone knows that one hard hit on the head with an iron rod would not leave you with consciousness enough to stand up and fight, unless we are talking about superheroes.

There are a lot more discrepancies in Mabish Gupte's Hostel. The director had claimed that his film is a gritty and hard hitting film on ragging in college hostels. He also promised that while the film has a fictional story all ragging incidents that he has shown are inspired by real life instances that he has come across in last 17 years.

Despite all the research the film scores low on writing. The writer, who has written films like Sarkar and D, loses way and seems confused how to carry on his story beyond initial ragging scenes. What he hence does is fill up the film with repetitive ragging scenes and some badly shot romantic scenes. By the end you would have seen guys being undressed so many times that you invariably believe that the ones who rag are the most unimaginative villains - they really can't figure anything better to do! Also interesting tracks like drugs and politics are mysteriously introduced and left as it is without any conclusion or reasoning.

Artist performance:

One of the reasons why HOSTEL doesn't work is because the casting is not right. Barring Mukesh Tiwari, who looks convincing and does well and Nagesh Bhosle [warden], who is equally effective, the actors don't look their parts. Vatsal Sheth relies on a set of expressions all through the film, while Tulip Joshi is wasted. The students don't look like students, frankly. They actually appear more like street thugs or rowdies and less like students of engineering to me.

Technical and other Departments:
Technically too Hostel is weak. It has been shot very immaturely. The cinematographer seems to be in a Ram Gopal Varma hangover as he comes up with the strangest of angles that made no sense. He needs to imbibe much more from RGV before trying any stunts. The editing is weak too and neither is the music worthy.

Final View:
On the whole, HOSTEL is a solid idea gone awry.
Dont was Money while watching this Type of film.

Nani New Telugu Film Ala Modalaindi Movie Review:

Story:
A young chap Gautham (Nani) is on his way to Bangalore to stop marriage of his girlfriend who is getting married to another guy. En route, he is kidnapped by John (Ashish Vidhyardhi) and the kidnapper demands him to narrate his story. Gautham tells him that he works with a TV channel and falls in love with a girl (Kriti) but she ditches him for a doctor. On the wedding day of his former girl friend, he meets a drunken girl Nitya (Nitya Menon) who happens to be the former girlfriend of the doctor. Soon friendship blossoms between Nitya and Gautham. As the days pass by, Gautham falls in love with Nitya and when he is about to propose, enters Nitya's fiancée. More such twists and turns follow till the climax. In the end, will Gautham and Nitya meet again or separate forever?

Artist Performance:
Nani is completely natural, at home while playing the character of Gowtam. He has also shown different variations. His voice is an asset and he used it effectively. Nitya Menon should be lucky to get a role that has lots of substance in it. She epitomized Nitya character with her fabulous performance. She looks beautiful in all kinds of dresses. Nitya Menon’s is the best debut in recent years of Telugu cinema after Samantha in YMC. She dubbed her voice and it suited the character to the tee. Sneha Ullal had a reasonable length character and she is fine. Kriti Karbandha and Chaitanya Krishna did cameos. Rohini and Uppalapati Narayana Rao (film director) adds freshness to parents characters. The friends gang of hero (Mirchi Hemantha, Raja Valluru, Pinky and Rhea) is also appropriately cast. Asish Vidyardhi gave a balanced performance in a crazy character. The guy who did the the role of drunkard software engineer in climax breathed life into the scenes.

Technical and Other Departments:
On technical front, the movie is dogged by bad visuals (whether it is due to bad grading, or bad digital transfer to UFO is not known). Arjun Jena 's camera work is unimpressive. Two songs by Kalyani Malik are good to ears.

Lakshmi Bhoopal' s dialogue is effective. As a director Nandini Reddy shows spark in handling comedy scenes. Like her guru, she has also extracted some cute expressions from the heroine. Unlike other women directors in the past, she has brought urbane look to the story narration.


Analysis:
First half of the movie is decent and has sufficient humor though there is no emotional impact. Second half becomes slow-paced, but picks up towards the end. The plus points of the movie are casting and humor. The negative point is the story-orientation. The relationship shown in this movie suits the lifestyle of west. The ‘non-committal’ attitude of lead pair and a relationship that goes on for years might not suit the mentality of our Telugu guys who take every chance at girl to express their love. Hence, the emotional impact of the story will not be there for audiences. Despital of the low emotional quotient, Ala Modalaindi scores well on humor and lighter-vein entertainment aspect. You may watch it.

Final View:
Ala Modalaindi can be watched once for its comedy in the second half. The twists and turns are also novel. But on the whole, it is just an average flick.

Sumanth New Telugu Film Golconda High School Movie Review:


Story:
A famous school Golconda High School is going through financial problems to run it. One of the directors of the trustee that runs the school comes with plan - to convert the vast land of play ground into a commercial building and set up a coaching center there. The principal of the school (Tanikella) opposes this idea put forth by the director (Subbaraju). The principle believes that play ground is important for kids for their holistic education. And he brings in ex-student and former cricketer Sampath (Sumanth) to train the school's cricket team so that they could excel in sports and bring back the glory to the school. Sumanth takes the challenge of board directors that if the school's cricket team wins in the coming inter-school championships, the playground wouldn't be touched upon. So how this coach will train the boys who never won a single mach and turn them into champions? That is the rest of the story.

Artist PerFormance:
Sumanth comes up with his career best performance as coach Sampath in this movie. It is an idealistic and inspiring character. Sumanth’s diction, expressions and body language suited it really well. Sumanth is the right choice for this movie. Swati’s role is not connected with the main story line. If she looked like a playful teen in her earlier movies, Swati is looking like a woman in this movie with sarees and demure performance. Subaraju has a towering screen presence and he proves again his capability as an actor with this movie. In all his earlier movies, Shafi used to dominate the character. He played this character within the boundaries in GHS and he is highly impressive. Tanikella Bharani is excellent. Ravi Prakash is authentic. Though all the seasoned actors performed exceedingly well, it is the kids who are stars of this movie. All the kids who acted as students are extremely natural. Santosh and Sangeet (both of them are sons of late director Sobhan Babu) have acted as Gowtam and Varun. Santosh’s performance is intense. Varun is very cute. Srinivas Sai (who acted as kid Nagarjuna in Kedi) is terrific as hot-blooded youngster. Farooq who played the role of Micky is genuine and effective. Lalith who played the role of sardarji keeper is very good with his performance. I don’t know the names of other kids. But the all the students are perfectly cast. The old man who did the role of attendant is perfect.

Technical and other Departments:

Top cinematographer Senthil has once again proved that he can give best results to even low-budgeted film. His frames and lighting have gelled with the story. His brilliance is clearly visible in capturing the Cricket game. Editing by Sravan is smooth but he should have cut away some scenes in the first half to speed up the narration. Talented Kalyani Malik once again comes up with innovative tunes - the duet shot on Sumanth and Swathi - is one of best melodies in the recent times. And Vittanam Sarikottaga Molakottutunna Vainam is equally good. Director Indraganti Mohan Krishna proves with the film that he's one of the most sensible directors in Telugu. This reviewer has not seen his Ashta Chemma but after Grahanam, he has shown his mark with this film again.

Analysis:
Ram Mohan (Art Beat Capital) who produced comedy like Ashta Chemma as his first venture made a brave decision when wanted to make an idealistic and inspiring sports-based movie. The credit for this movie should go to him. Because of the freedom given by the producer, Mohan Krishna Indraganti could able to come with a neat product. All the cast and crew complemented each other’s work. There is an underlying message in the movie to the parents and students. At the same time, the entertainment quotient is intact. GHS might not have regular commercial elements, but has enough content in the movie to make you glued to the screen. On a whole, Golkonda High School is a different yet enjoyable film. You may watch it at your leisure.

Final View:
Golconda High School is good movie and clean movie. The team should be commended for its effort but it doesn't inspire you. The movie may connect with niche audiences, the film is interesting flick. If more emotional and motivational elements added, the film could have been better. On the whole, it turns out be to be a film that can be watched for once.

Siddharth, Sruthi Haasan, Lakshmi Prasanna New Telugu Film Anaganaga O Dheerudu Movie Review:

Ya Finally telugu Films are Reached at base part of Hollywood Films in Graphics. Siddharth had big hopes on this Film. This movie was not Reached to fans expectation. Even Sruthi Haasan, Lakshmi Prasanna had Big Hopes on this Film Because it is the Debut film of Both in Tollywood.Expect Graphics There nothing in this Film.

Story:
Once upon a time, in a mythical land of Angarajya, an evil queen Irendri (Lakshmi Manchu) creates havoc and people take shelter at an ashramam run by Sadhu. And the Sandhu sends a kid called Moksha, with mystical powers, to heal the people suffered by an unknown disease, to the neighboring rajya. A blind swordsman Yodha (Siddhartha) protects the girl. On the other hand, Irendri who lives on taking the drop of blood of Priya (Sruthi Haasan) daily comes to know that if she swallows blood of Moksha, she would live forever as immortal. Priya (Sruthi) a gypsy kind of girl was once Yodha's lover. Now it is Yodha's mission to save Mokhsa from Irendri and also get Priya out of Irendri's clutches.

Artist Performance:
It is virtually impossible for any young hero in Telugu cinema to accept a blind man’s role. Siddharth is very brave to brace this character that flows with the narration of the movie. Siddharth is fabulous. Shruti Hassan is glamorous with her exotic looks. However, it is Lakshmi Manchu who steals the show. Her make-up, dialogue delivery and screen presence is terrific. Baby Harshita is impressive with her work. Ravi Babu is nice as the lieutenant of witch with the funny oneliner ‘nimma daanimma’. Brahmanandam and Ali have a few funny scenes.

Techincal and Other Departments:
Story of the film is like Chandamama katha (fairy tale). The director didn’t succumb to the commercial trap and narrated it in a way it should be. Prakash Kovelamudi is excellent with visuals and presentation. He is highly imaginative. He introduced all the characters excellently. However, the movie has only one orientation throughout the movie - witch seeking the kid. A couple of secrets revealed in the second half are interesting. But, he couldn’t get the emotions strong enough on the screen to rise the tempo.Songs are composed by 4 different music directors and all the songs are good. Background music composed by Salim Sulaiman is excellent. Visuals in this movie are of extraordinary quality. It is the result of collective team work by the cinematographer (Sounder Rajan) and visual effects team (Firefly). There are many visual effects that doesn’t appear like effects to naked eyes. There are graphics worth 72 minutes in this movie (half of the total runtime). Art direction by Bhupesh Bhupathi is superb. The costumes, make-up and get-ups are of top-notch. Dialogues by T Rajasimha are pretty good and they might sound odd for the regular moviegoers because the dialogues were written in pristine Telugu though he used contemporary cheap words like jaffa. Production values of the movie are humongous. Disney has made sure that their first Indian production is at par with their Hollywood projects in terms of technical and production values.


Analysis:
When was the last time we have the hero playing the role of a blind man? When was the last time a Telugu movie had a young woman as a villain? Anaganaga O Dheerudu is a brave attempt that defies many stereotypes and cliches of Telugu cinema. But at the same time, it is extremely important for any director to get the emotions flared up at the crux moments. Prakash Kovelamudi who stuck with the script made sure that the story is narrated like a fairy tale, but he couldn't get the right emotions/tempo (suspense or utkantha) towards the climax of the movie. The plus points of the movie are extraordinary visuals, lead performances (especially Lakshmi Manchu) and classic style of story-telling. The negative point of the movie is the lack of emotional depth/connect. On a whole, Anaganaga O Dheerudu is a universal movie that aims at kids in the family and the kid inside you.

Final View:
Anaganaga O Dheerudu is visually alluring and graphics and effects are outstanding. It is a fantasy flick shot with bright colors and great sets. Although it has not 'kick', the movie can be seen for once and especially kids would enjoy it more.

Its a Good film to watch This pongal With Your family.

Raviteja New Telugu Film Mirapakay Movie Review :

well Mirapakay seems to be not worked so far that Big For Raviteja in New Year. even though two Hotties Richa and Sraddha glamour cant favored To This Film.
when Coming In to Story.But Ravi Brand Mark comedy gives some positive results to this Film.

Story:
Rishi works as a police officer in Intelligence Bureau in New Delhi. He is hot-blooded when dealing with anti-social elements and that earns him the name - Mirapakay. He is also romantic at heart when he's not on duty. His immediate Boss (Nagababu) sends him off to Hyderabad on a mission to join in a college as lecturer and lie down few days there. In Hyderabad, he falls in love with a traditional looking girl Vinamra (Richa) who happens to be student in his college where he teaches Hindi. After couple of songs and some funny scenes later, it is revealed that he should befriend with Vaishali (Deeksha Seth), daughter of mafia don Kittu Bhai (Prakash Raj) and through her they plan to nab the don. How Rishi finishes off the mission is all about the second half of the movie.

Artist Performance:
Ravi Teja has just done what he has been doing in all his previous films. Nothing new in his histrionics. The less said about the Richa the better, as she looks plump on screen and out of shape completely. Deeksha Seth is tall and beautiful, but she has to check out her 'back'. Sunil i n his brief role has provided good comedy. Ali as Al Pachino is funny. Kota Srinivas Rao, Chandramohan, Ajay and Supreeth are okay. From Chirutha to Kantri to Pokiri, Prakash Raj 's character as Don and his set up (in Bangkok) is almost similar. Cut paste characterization, hua!

Technical and other Departments:
Story of the movie is cliched as we have seen loads of movies of cop working under-cover in Telugu since Pokiri. One good thing the director has done is to reveal the cop part of it in the beginning of the film in-stead of showing it as a twist in the end. The director’s ability cannot be judged when one directs the movie of Ravi Teja. Ravi Teja takes over the baton with his entertainment quotient and gives story/screenplay a backseat. This movie is no exception. Direction is okay in parts.
Music director Thaman came up with populist tunes in the movie. The songs are good though they are loud at times. Background music is good. Cinematography is average. Dialogues are nice at times. Editing is okay. Fights are neat.

Analysis:
The major story of the movie is revealed in the first 15 minutes and the culmination takes place in the last 15 minutes. The rest of two hours is dedicated to the love angle and entertainment. The screenplay that takes place during this 2-hour period is not properly done. It is a proven fact that Ravi Teja’s movies have scant respect for story and screenplay and majorly depend on the entertainment aspect. The entertainment is interesting in parts. We have to wait and see how Mirapakai is lapped up by the crowds.

Final View:
If you are not tired of seeing Ravi Teja doing same role again and again, showing off same histrionics without much variation, then Mirapakay may seem time-pass one. For others, it looks tepid and boring.

Balakrishna new Telugu Film Param Veer chakra Movie Review:
ooooh ! it seems to be bala krishna comes again in his old track in 2000's , there is nothing new in the film. After a big hit like Simha Fans had big epextation on this Film. But This Film sets a big Disater to Audience. The Great Combination of Dasari Narayana Rao and Balakrsihna was not worked so far in this film

Story:
Chakradhar (Balakrishna) is popular actor. He does varied roles (Raavana Brahma, Komaram Bheem etc) in reel life that attracts everyone from girls (Sheela plays one of his fans and his love) to military officers. One day, a military officer (Muralidhar) comes to Chakradhar to narrate a story based on Indian Army. Chakradhar involves in the character of Major Jayasinha, as the narration unfolds. The officer stops narrating after a point and asks him to come to Himachala Pradesh to show the real Jayasinha. Who is this Jayasimha? In what way he's connected to Chakradhar? That forms the rest of the story.

Artist performace :
Balakrishna does justice to his roles and various other getups he dons in the movie. He is excelled in the role of Raavana and his dialogues when he praises the social work of actors sure would bring whistles from his fans. There three glamour girls - Sheela (okay), Amisha Patel (competent), and Neha Dupia (provides glamour in a negative role) but they have hardly any scope. Comedy by Brahmanandam and Ali and spoof of Rajnikant's Robot is unimpressive. Senior actors like Murali Mohan and Jayasudha have done neat job.

Technical and other Departments:
The film fails miserably on technical departments. None of the songs composed by Manisharma are worth listening. Music is biggest drawback. Even the cinematography by Ramana Raju is substandard and all other technical team's efforts are patchy.

Analysis:
Until this film, veteran director Dasari Narayana Rao has never directed Nandamuri Balakrishna in the career of 149 films. This is his 150th film and a first with Balakrishna. Having made blockbusters like Bobbili Puli and Saradar Paparayudu with Balakrishna's father Late NTR, the veteran director has once again written a story on army officers. In Bobbili Puli, NTR plays the same role of a jawan. Parama Veera Chakra also starts with climax episodes of ‘Bobbili Puli' and sadly, the director's thoughts are stuck in that era only. From the beginning of the movie to the end, it is filled with clichéd scenes, outdated dialogues, theatrical narration and 80's like entertainment.

Dasari's attempt to connect to new generation with this film puts us in a test of patience. But he has not come out of his conventional style of narration that was acceptable in 80's. Old wine in old bottle..that is the problem with the movie.

Final View:
Parama Veera Chakra doesn't entice even die-hard fans of Balakrishna. The movie is clichéd and outdated. Veteran director Dasari once again shows that he's still stuck in the 80's.

watch it your own risk!
