      Audience Member The exact copy cat of Dookudu. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member mahesh all the way.... it is a great entertainer Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/21/23 Full Review Audience Member Shankar (mahesh) is an orphan who is brought up by Raja Ram (rajendra prasad) and his goal is to become a honest and tough cop. He achieves that but an incident separates him from Raja Ram. Meanwhile, Bokkapatnam is a place ruled by the dreaded gangster Damodar (sonu sood) and Shankar is transferred there to restore things. There, he meets Saroja (tamannah) and falls in love with her. Whether Shankar is successful in his mission or not forms the rest. The director has come up with a predictable storyline and while the presentation was rich, the narrative was good and hilarious in parts. The dialogues were filled with many punches. The script was average but the screenplay was energetic. The background score was good but only two songs were worth humming. Cinematography was the main strength to this film. Editing was crisp. Costumes were well designed and stylish to suit the backdrop while the art department was majestic. This is a total Mahesh Babu show and the way he dominated in every scene is impressive. Tamannah was a vision of beauty and her glamour feast is delightful. Sonu Sood was good, Brahmanandam was a standout, M S Narayana was great. Vennela Kishore was great form.Nasser was hilarious also. The others did their bit as required and added value. The film comes from the house of Sreenu Vaitla who is known for his rip roaring comedy entertainers with action. The first half was very good and breezes smoothly with elements of comedy, action and romance. The interval bang was promising. The second half was more focused on the action and revenge element. In Vaitla's movies humour is a big ace and in this film its no different, there are many LOL moments, and the beginning father son sentiment also works well .Overall, this is a film more for mass audience and Mahesh fans. And they will not be disappointed, yes the film is a cliched commercial entertainer, but the film never has dull moment, there is either something hilarious on screen, or nice mass action, and Mahesh Babu has easily given his most entertaining act. A recommended watch for pure mass entertainment Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/13/23 Full Review Audience Member Biggest Blockbuster of 2014 Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/30/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
