Story

Srinu (Sivaji) falls in love with Swetha (Sonia), she avoids him and her Uncle Shankar Jackson (Raghu babu) hits him black and blue and throws away from a hill top. Srinu gets a magical power of reading others fate from Lord ‘Yama’. How the story takes a turn from there forms the rest him.

Performances

Sivaji is okay. Sonia performed well but didn’t suit to the regular commercial heroine slot. Rajendra Prasad suited well to the role of Lord Brahma. Jay Prakash Reddy and AVS as Yama Dharma Raju and Chitragupta fitted the bill. Venu Madhav has done his bit well. The special effects are good. Music by Srilekha was Average. The story starts off very slowly with some boring scenes. The director has taken much time to arrive at the main plot.

Analysis

The story starts at Brahmalokam from there to Bhoolokam and then to Yamalokam and then ‘Brahma’ and ‘Yama’ land up in Bhoolokam. Rajendra Prasad suited well to the role of Lord ‘Brahma’; he brings divinity to his role. Jaya Prakash Reddy as Yama dharma Raju seemed just okay. ‘Kalyani’ as Goddess Saraswathi, ‘Arthi Aggarwal’ as Rambha is okay. Venu Madhav’s track brings some laughs in the theatre. Sivaji has done a decent job. Sonia performed well in a couple of scenes, her make-up is patchy. Skin show and commercial Heroine avatar didn’t suit her much.

Music by M.M.Srilekha is Average, The numbers sound good but all the songs are un-situational and come as popup and end up as mere Cigarette songs. The background score is poor. Cinematography and editing are okay. The Story is good but the Screenplay is moronic. The Dialogues are cheap and filled with vulgarity. The Direction is mediocre.

The visual Effects where Brahma was shown with four heads were good. Movie is filled with much graphics work which lasts almost for about an hour. Graphics Work/ Visual effects have come reasonably well. It is good to see such fine work in small and low budget films.

The movie is targeted mainly at B, and C centers and we have to wait and watch whether it gets received or not.


Plus: Presence of Rajendra Prasad, Some humorous Scenes

Minus: Weak Narration, Prolonged Second half

Verdict: Strictly for B, C Centers, You can catch it when it comes out as a DVD (For Visual effects)
