Separately first; jointly next. (Of course, on the lines of the scene in “James” – RGV's latest movie). What next? After series of chases, the end comes abruptly, but as expected. Performance True to a Krishnavamsi movie, all the characters (as they can't be categorized here as heroes or heroines) have done perfect justice to make a thriller. Allari Naresh, who is given to comedies, has performed well in this experimental genre of Krishnavamsi, while the second guy Sai Ram Shankar did his role with ease. Of course, his debut film 143 – I Love - has similar theme. Chase by Naxals and police! The third guy Abhisekh is adequate. Swathi (of Colors) fame has performed neatly. Another girl Sherin is passable. Brahmanandam's role brings mixed response. Satya did the role of a crooked cop, who joins hands with the villain. Other parental roles are Okay. Technical Details Story is absolutely a let down and badly mars the expectations of the audiences that they watched a Krishnavamsi movie. For a director like him, this sort of cat and mouse like chase looks ordinary . Screenplay is spoiled with long treatment of certain scenes in the first half itself as they really are not required. Direction too disappoints. Suspense and anxiety are missing. However, you will appreciate the chase sequences . Cinematography is superb, of course with several jerks and shakes. Dialogues by Uttej are ordinary and routine with Hyderabadi dialect. This film would have done better had it released before “Anukokunda Oka Roju”, as certain scenes resemble much to depress the audience. Krishnavamsi, who announced very early that there would not be any songs in the film, wasted much of the time in dragging certain scenes, incorporating chase sequences and a lone romantic streak of music. However, Sridhar Joshua's background score is commendable. Poor handling of the comedy department is a minus point. If we only want to ignore this, we really can't as the storyline is not that much serious or hair-raising.
