Analysis :

Prabhudeva did well as a blind man. He served lots of situational comedy with his fine performance. Raju Sundaram and Nagendra Prasad too gave credible performance. Since, these two guys are not so famous, the director added a goatee to Raju Sundaram to distinguish him from Nagendra Prasad. Jyothika has put on lots of weight in this film, which made her look fat. Acting wise she did a neat job.

TeluguOne Perspective :

The only strength of the film is situation comedy based on the disabilities of three protagonists. Otherwise it's an avoidable film. You may watch it on your video at leisure for the situational comedy it offers. The producers of this film tried to dupe Telugu audience by projecting '1-2-3' as the first Jyothika's Telugu straight film. But its yet another routine dubbing film rubbed on Telugu audience.
