Analysis :
This is the first straight film of Sriram (of Rojapoolu fame). He did a sensible portrayal of the role. The characterization of his role is very soft and tender. Sri dubbed the voice of Sriram and it sounded fresh.Arti Chabria: is a perfect fit as a NRI Telugu girl. Sunita dubbed Arti with her dulcet voice.Vijay (of Abbailu Ammailu fame) donned a comedy role of hero's buddy. He generated lots of humor. Radha Kumari is good as typical good-hearted yet pampering grandmother. Jahnavi played her real-life character of a TV anchor. The ones who played the roles of Sanjay and Williams are appropriate.Swapna Rao goes back to USA. Kameswara Rao joins a company that promised him a job in USA. The entire second half revolves around how they find each other.
TeluguOne Perspective :
The first half of the film is good with good amount of humor sprinkled at regular intervals. The graph in second half got down a bit. However, things were brought back on the wheels by the time film approached climax. The positive points are imaginatory direction, extraordinary music and excellent photography. The negative points are lack of commercial elements for B and C center crowds, very slow narration and off-beat outlook. This film should be reaping awards. But we have to wait and see if this film reaps financial rewards for the producer as well.
