What's it about
After completing M.SC (computers), Krishna (Ravi Teja) wanders around Vijaywada city without any job and falls in love with Sandhya (Trisha) at first sight. Sandhya avoids Krishna initially but soon develops soft corner towards him. She is sister of a builder in Hyderabad (Shayaji Shinde) but she lives with her cousin Bobby (Brahmanandam) in Vijayawada. Now the drama shifts to Hyderabad. Krishna comes to Hyderabad when Sandhya shifts there. A rowdy called Jatka (Mukul Dev) vows that he would marry Sandhya only. The rest of the film is how Krishna takes on Jatka.
Analysis
What do you expect from a Ravi Teja film? Entertainment, right! From the word go, Krishna offers it aplenty. Full of comedy, less of action, Krishna is a complete paisa vasool entertainer. It is a surprise to see that director Vinayak taking a complete turn around. He effortlessly switches to comic entertainers from masala action movies. Ravi Teja and Brahmanandam bring the house down with their perfect comic timing. The first half is joyful ride - you can't stop laughing through out. The best part is that Vinayak has packaged the film so perfectly till the end with right mix of entertainment, glamour and action. Krishna has more of Sreenu Vaitla touch in this Vinayak film. Vinayak gaaru, we welcome this change! No doubt, it is a formula film but the screenplay and the narrative structure is too good and doesn't shift your focus. Dialogues are hilarious. Comedy is created even in the villains gang. Chase sequences and Vinayak's trademark scenes of blasting vehicles feature here too (only twice) but it is the entertainment that dominates and doesn't make you bore anywhere. Aided by good technical values and high production values, the film is a perfect film for an outing during the Sankranthi time.
Some aspects that should be mentioned:
1) Comedy between Ravi Teja and Brahmanandam
2) Ravi Teja taking away Trisha from villain and the following chase sequence
3) Screenplay and dialogues
4) Cinematography On the down side, it slows down towards the climax and lacks no novelty in storyline. The last song comes as hindrance to the flow of the story.
Performances
No other hero can do such comedy except Ravi Teja. He is perfect to such kind of roles. With each film, he is improving, especially in comic timing. It is his show all the way. Trisha is so beautiful and this is the first time that she played glamorous character in Telugu. Ravi Teja and Trisha's pairing is also perfect and they have good chemistry. Brahmanandam takes the onus. Without him, the film is nothing. The veteran comedian is like a wine that tastes better with each day. After Dhee, Chandramohan gets another comic role. Newcomer Mukul Dev is good. Shinde, Kota, Sunil, JP and others have done adequate job. Technical and production values should be mentioned. Chota K Naidu's camera brings richness to the screen. Perhaps, Vijayawada has never been so beautifully captured. After delivering dud like Yogi, V V Vinayak comes with refreshingly. He has reinvented his style and delivers goods again. After Lakshmi and Tulasi, writer Akula Shiva comes up with another winner. He gets full appreciation as director this time. He has extracted good performances from actors and technicians and blended it perfectly. Songs by music Chakri is adequate.
Bottom-line!
Krishna offers paisa vasool entertainment. If you are looking for good times pass this pongal, this can be the right choice. Comedy is its strength. Don't look for novelty in the story; Krishna takes you on comic ride.
