From the director who gave hits like Athadu and Jalsa, comes another entertaining movie, Julayi. Allu Arjun has donned a new avatar acting as a carefree and intelligent man with a purpose. His dialogue delivery is a plus point in the movie. Ileana, as an innocent girl, is given a role to play instead of just being a glamorous eye candy. Unfortunately, it was slightly off-putting to see her because she was a bit too skinny. Sonu Sood, as the antagonist, was great. His character was a perfect parallel to Allu Arjun's. The comedy scenes were executed well and did not interrupt the flow of the story. The screenplay was refreshing. The songs were nice, with DSP as music director. The editing and direction were both good.
