Karthi, Tamil actor’s first straight Telugu movie is here and let us see how the movie is.

Story:

Kamal Krishna (Karthi) is from Samarlakota who comes to Hyderabad. Kamal wanted to meet couple of politicians to get rid of the demolishment by Government who are back of his ancestral house back in his village. But he experiences the political games of the corrupted politicians. Even the chief minister Bhupathi (Prakash Raj) plays some crooked games. Fed up with all these, Kamal wanted to attain power in order to get rid of these. Auto Driver Appalraju (Santhanam) helps him in every phase. The rest of the story is how and whether he attains the power.

Performances

Karthi’s performance was very good he carries the entire film on his shoulders.

Pranitha, the heroin did justice to her role. She was given a simple character involving songs and glamour role when possible. Prakash Raj did the role as usual. No complains and no hiccups. Justified the Chief Minister role. Santhanam justified his role with the one liner comedy and punches. Rest Radhika, Kota, Roja, Nasser were natural. Anushka’s special entry was unexpected but good. Kiran Rathod sexy looks made eyes open. Anushka’s special role was a delight.

Technical Department

The main drawback was weak screen play. It would have been much better. The story has no depth as well. On top of it, music and songs were not good. They pulled the movie down.

Summary

Karthi’s performance was very good including sexy Pranitha. The story line was ok but weak screen play. It was more of a political movie. Should have been in the hands of a good director. Over all the movie was not as expected.

Overall Rating 3/5
