Analysis :

This film is made for Raja Sekhar. He gave award winning performance as the mentally disabled guy in the second half. In the first half, he gave a pretty good controlled performance. This film is a real treat to all the movie lovers, who like Raja Sekhar. Even all the songs are pictured on Raja Sekhar (not even in a single song, we see the heroine performing active role).Kaveri acted without make up and this dusky girl is a good-looking one. She underplayed the character of innocent looking Brahmin girl. She suited the role well and her performance is decent.

TeluguOne Perspective :

Seshu is a remake of Tamil hit film 'Sethu'. I have not seen the film 'Sethu'. Hence, my comments are based on seeing Seshu as a fresh film. Pace of the film Seshu is pretty slow. The first half provides some situational comedy. The entire second half of the film is very serious. The climax of the film is heart rendering. This film appears to be made to showcase the acting prowess of Raja Sekhar. The main drawback of the film is lack of entertainment value. Intellectual people might like this film. But a common man stays away from these kinds of serious cinema. It's a must watch for all the people who like Raja Sekhar. For a regular moviegoer, this film does not offer anything exciting except for Raja Sekhar's histrionics.
