Sankranti razzmatazz has been begun by Abbai. A day later, the Abbai will join the league and do his part to add to the festive fervour and Tolly glamour. IndiaGlitz brings you what the insiders are saying about Dictator.

Even as Balayya is fresh in our memories as that domineering Legend, he is raring to dictate terms as a Dictator. The talk is that this film is likely to turn out to be the biggest mass masala entertainer of this season. The songs may not be sought after, but some of the scenes have a very good sensational value, given their political overtones.

It is said that Balayya's scenes with Rathi Agnihotri are the best part of the movie.

On the flip side, the film is formulaic. While there are all the elements that Balayya's fans expect, the film's loudness may not go down well with all.

Thaman's music will work more on the screen, the insiders predict. Anjali and Sonal Chouhan's glamour quotient will work for the mass audience, goes yet another take.

All in all, Dictator's formulaic quality may generate some thumbs down reviews from the audience, but the film will have a good run this season, thanks to not-so-high expectations around the film and the appeal it holds for the mass audience.
