The highlight of this film must surely be the screenplay written by director Shekar Kammula himself. That special Telugu dialect of the people of Telangana is seen in every frame beautifully crafted and directed by him. People still recite the punch lines even months since the film became a hit. And of course the lead performers Varun Tej and Sai Pallavi. Varun is gifted and underplays his role on purpose. As for Sai Pallavi she is at her best as anyone can ever be. This magnificently beautiful and talented chit of a girl has won the hearts of people everywhere for her sterling performance in this film. She has that bubbling effervescent presence and special tone in her voice that will mesmerize both young and old. She has become so much of the character Bhanumathi from the film that people address her as ‘Bhanu’ even in real life now. Her graceful movements during the dance sequences must be the envy of every dancer in town. With hardly any makeup throughout the film, Sai Pallavi brings that element of realism that is so needed for the character to be believed. We laugh when she recites those punch lines with devastating effect and we cannot but help root deeply for her when she cries. She has become something of a sweetheart, sister and daughter for all of us. Congrats to the makers of this glorious film.
