Characterization of the lead actor is good, 21 June 2006
5/10

Well, this is the typical Telugu movie for mass. The highlight of the film is Mahesh's brilliant performance. Apart from this, Prakash raj also has put in a fine effort.

The director Puri tried to mix lot of bollywood movies like Abtak 56, Company... The comedy track is horrible. His only forte is writing the screenplay keeping hero character in his mind.

Some of the dialog like "Once i am committed, i don't even listen to myself", " I don't know how much an idiot i am" are very good.

Ileana looks beautiful. This is Mahesh's another hit after Athadu. Nothing to talk about the music.
