Analysis :
Balayya is in his elements, again, in this film. But the characterization is not strong enough to elevate heroism. There was very good applause for a few dialogues uttered by Balayya in this film.Simran is the second half heroine with a role for emoting. She did extremely well.Reema Sen is just a prop in this film used as glamour cushion so that a couple of songs can be pictured in the first half. She is wasted in 'Seema Simham'.
TeluguOne Perspective :
The film starts with illogical sequences. Polices occupying the poor woman's place and putting up a police station is illogical, which made a way to hero introduction this film. The second point is Charan Raj worrying about his prize money and preferring 5 lakhs to a multimillionaire friend, who treats him at par. Then the entire first half is dragged with no story. The story again starts 5 minutes before interval. Watching the movie is like watching two movies with a heroine each. First half has different flavor and different heroine. Second half has different color and different heroine.Though the dialogue writers forcibly inserted the justification for 'Seema Simham' title in the dialogues written to Balayya, there is no logic behind titling this film as 'Seema Simham'. The first half of the film is average. The second half disappoints as people start expecting something extraordinary in the flashback. Flashback in this film is very ordinary. At the end climax weakens and the hero's character does not get elevated. This film is opened with terrific crowds. We have to watch and see how this film is going to fare of box office in the long run.
