Story:

Seetharama Raju (Mahesh Babu) is a Cab driver and goes to Rajasthan on a mission to deliver an insurance Check. He meets Subhashini (Anushka) in the journey. Hero faces an attack and is saved by Villagers of PAALI a place in North Andhra Pradesh. How Raju fights for the Villagers when they face a serious problem is what the movie is about.

Performances:

Mahesh has come up with different body language and he has done a tremendous job. Anushka looked Okay. Ali, Sunil and Brahmanandam are okay. Shafi and Rao Ramesh played some crucial roles. Prakash raj fitted to the role well. The story line is very very thin, but the way it is narrated is truly entertaining. Cinematography is good. Music by Manisharma is average. Background Score is good. Screenplay is okay. Dialogues are witty and funny. Direction is good. Production values are good.

Analysis:

Mahesh babu has come with yet another entertainer which suited him the best till date. His body language and dialogue modulation is different. Mahesh looked young and dynamic. Mahesh looked more handsome in this new look, he has done fantastic job as an actor. He excelled both in Comedy and Action scenes. His typical dialogues like “Dheenabba jeevitham” and “Amma Dheeni Abba” are good. Anushka is okay (appeared bit aged when compared), looked glamorous-The onscreen Chemistry between the pair is okay. Prakash raj is under utilized. Brahmanandam is okay. Ali and Sunil entertain in the first half. Veda makes a small appearance.


Songs Sequence

First half:

1) Taxi(Ranjith)

Song picturised on Hero and dancers, Mahesh entertains with a couple of steps.

2) Boom Shakanaka (Ranjith & Shravana Bhargavi)

Picturised on Anushka and Mahesh as Anushka tortures him, well Picturised on a grand Scale. Mahesh and Anushka make a good pair on the screen.

3) Piliche (Hema Chandra & Swetha)

Comes as a melodious song when hero develops feelings on the heroine. A Well picturised one.



Second half:

4) Sada Siva (Ramesh Vinayagam & Karunya)

Song is picturised in the Village as all the villagers worship the hero thinking he is God. The best song in the movie. It’s hauntingly melodious.

5) Sunday Monday (Hema Chandra & Malavika)

Duet picturised on Anushka and Mahesh

6) Makathika (Karthik & Saindavi)

Typical Manisharma Song-Picturised on the lead pair, the song placement is wrong.



Trivikram- Mahesh Combo is back again but this time with a different genre and concentrated more on Entertainment. The Dialogues written to Mahesh are simple and entertaining (generally Trivikram writes Punchy and rhyming ones). There are some lines which impress you.


“Vaadini Choosthey Bhayam Chasthundi--, thakithey Dhairyam Vasthundhi”



“Andharu notitho Maatladhatahru-Nuvvu Nootlatho maatladhathavu”


“8,950 ni round figure chesthey 9000 kadha” -----antey 10,000 lo ekkuva rounds vunnai kadha


“Comedy Chesthey Neney Cheyyali Inkevvadu Cheyyakoodadhu”


“Saami………….. Idhee Nee Dharsanam …Dhaniki Idhi Nidarsanam”

Trivikram concentrated more on Entertainment and takes the movie forward in a lighter vein. The main issue got diluted and did not make an impression. The force and intensity in the issue is missing. Even serious Scenes/ Mass Scenes were narrated entertainingly. Rao Ramesh and Shafi combination Scenes remind us of MAGADHEERA. Mahesh was portrayed as a non- selfish person and he fights only with the intension to help others. Mahesh babu’s character is well etched and stuffed with good dialogues. This movie too ends up like Trivikram’s previous flicks; hero doesn’t kill the Villain (like ATHADU, JALSA). Director has given justification to many doubts that arise but it’s restricted only to the Dialogues. Fight sequences are well designed. Cinematography is good. Music by Manisharma is Average and the Background Score is good. ‘Sadasiva’ theme is well utilized. The Song Haunts even after you leave the Cinema.There is a message too in the Climax(if you receive)



We have to wait and watch how the new look of Mahesh will be received by the Masses. Fair Chances of Becoming a Hit if received well.


Plus: Mahesh babu, entertainment

Minus: Issue got diluted, Climax is bit slow


Verdict: watch it for Mahesh and Entertainment.
