Bindu makes weird wishes and asks Seenu to kill her uncle. Why did she wish to kill her caring uncle and where will this lead to forms the plot.
Analysis :
The film opens with suspense which catches the grip and then get diverted to romantic episodes of teens. The village love affair and entertainment part doesn't bore the audience. The interval bang is main highlight of the film and heroine performance is a major asset. The second half of the film deals with more story and the entertainment is completely ignore. But never the less the director makes sure that the movie is more interesting. Hero performance dominates in second half.
Director Sunil Kumar Reddy needs special mention to make such bold film yet so convincing.
Performance :
Heroine Priyanka Pallavi steals the show with her skills and carried the first half on her shoulders. She also did some bold scenes and deserves a pat on her back. Manoj is also equally good and showed his strength. As he said in an interview, he can be now reckoned as an actor. The rest of the cast were decent.
Final Word: This is a message oriented film unlike other stereotypes, it won't bore the audience but strictly to adults.
