Performance:
Sushanth has touched
fox’s tail for tremendous openings that happened due to postponement of
Attarintiki Daredi. While the actor’s expressions were ok, his dance
knowledge helped him to go well with songs and the dialogue delivery
needs an expression change with each.
Shanvi has given her best, as Priya she is a glam doll and feast to watch on screen.
Rest of the cast, Raghubabu, Jayaprakash Reddy, Dhanraj, Venu and Thagubothu Ramesh has done their parts well.
Shwetha Bharadwaj is hot in the item number and Special appearances by Nagarjuna and ANR in ‘Endukey’ song are appealing.
Technical Analysis:
Sai Karthik’s debut may not go well with
all centers of audiences, as the script is not quite enthralling and
slow paced narration. Somehow, his screenplay gelled with audiences
specially teenagers.
Anoop Rubens musicals have helped the movie. Even though the choreography elevated the audio, few tracks were wasted.
Arun Kumar’s cinematography is ok. Editing could have been done better, as the climax and pre-climax appears to be exhausted.
Analysis:
Sushanth’s Adda is a drag for simple
script with predictable twists. Debutant director Sai Karthik is potent
that he made audiences to sit with his screenplay and comedy bits here
and there. While the movie is not so gripping, climax and pre-climax
scenes doomed.
Anoop Rubens scores are appealing but
were placed untimely and few wasted. Sushanth is watchable with trendy
look and Shanvi is an asset for Adda. First half is quite entertaining
compared to the second because of one-liners and comic scenes.
