Story: Men are simple and women are complex. Trisha and Simbhu (who acted in the Tamil version of the same) did a cameo. Puri Jagan played as himself for a few scenes. Sanjay Swaroop (producer and husband of Manjula) did the role of hero’s father and he suited it well. Others: Krishnudu is very good as hero’s friend. She is the same one who dubbed the voice of Sameera Reddy in ‘Surya s/o Krishnan’. I absolutely loved the voice of the artist who dubbed her. Lots of credit should go to director for etching her beautiful characterization. The minute expressions she gave spoke volumes about her. This dusky beauty is highly charming and she is cool in acting as well. Samantha: Samantha’s debut is one of the best heroine debuts in Telugu cinema. It’s a top notch effort from him and he will do wonders in the future. You are not going to believe that this is his second film after watching his performance. His dialogue delivery and body language is highly authentic.

Naga Chaitanya proves that he is a brilliant actor with his performance in this movie. It takes real confidence and acting prowess to do such scenes in an authoritative manner. It is basically a conversational film with too many tight close-ups.

Naga Chaitanya: Naga Chaitanya is extremely natural in the role of Karthik. The rest of the story is all about how Karthik achieves his passion to become a film director and tastes success at the personal front. She loves him, but can’t hurt her entire family by marrying him. Her strict father comes to know about it and settles her marriage. He proposes to her and she slowly falls for his guts and his perseverance. One is that she is elder to him and the bigger hitch is that she is a Malayali Christian. Samantha is his neighbour and he falls in love with her at the very first sight. Karthik (Naga Chaitanya) is an engineering graduate who wants to pursue his career as a film director.
