[ 10:57 am ]
- 'Cow is mother. Cow is not about religion. It's about Dharma.' These are Sarathkumar's words to drill sense into cow smugglers. [ 11:03 am ]
-
The hero is born as someone who uses death as his weapon. Meena seen. Jagapathi Babu enters the screen as an illegal miner.
[ 11:07 am ]
- Jagapathi Babu is incredibly good as a cruel villain. Director Sriwass creates a fabulous introduction episode for the story. [ 11:18 am ]
-
Bellamkonda Sai Srinivas enters the screen as Vishwa. He is an gaming professional, both creative and adventurous. The scene shifts to Dubai after titles.
[ 11:28 am ]
- Pooja Hegde is Soundarya Lahari, a learned girl who knows Itihasas and Puranas. Vennela Kishore, Brahmaji and Jhansi seen. [ 11:40 am ]
- Rao Ramesh has a key role. Lyricist Ananth Sriram has an extended cameo. The film should now move to India [ 11:58 am ]
- Krishna Bhagawan is seen as a caricaturish pranic healer. The villainy of Munu Swamy (Jagapathi) and his brothers (Ravi Kishan, Ashutosh Rana) is brutal [ 12:07 pm ]
-
After an action-driven pre-interval scene, there come some family scenes. The duets are intrusive and sit ill at ease with the genre and the mood of the film.
[ 12:43 pm ]
- A long action episode in Varanasi is reasonably good. There needs to be more of Jagapathi in the second half [ 1:00 pm ]
- The hero's punchline moment arrives. Pooja Hegde says a Sanskrit sloka. A child describes the hero as a God. Everything is set for an action episode in the backdrop of mines. The background score is mind-blowingly good [ 1:24 pm ]
- The end [ 1:47 pm ]
