Direction and Music :
Firstly, I whole heartedly appreciate Krrish for attempting such a superb movie. It is extremely difficult to maintain the tempo in all the tracks in which he failed eventually to a large extent I should say but he made it all with an excellent climax.
He extracted the best performance from the entire cast. Unfortunately, he failed to synchronise all the tracks.
Keeravani's Music is a big let down in this movie. Songs could not bind audience to their seats. Rupayi song is superbly picturised.

Performances :
Movie started with showing Allu Arjun as a Day dreamer who tries to rope in Pooja (Deeksha Seth) to become rich. The real actor in Arjun is out only when he tries in all the ways to grab money for new year party. He finally ends up stealing money from . The pain he undergoes after that is excellently exhibited. Particularly when he says"Nenu Nakili Manishini", "Thappai poyindhamma". later when Allu dies saving the lives of many people from terrorists, What Raghu Babu says is exactly right, "Saavu ki Savochindhira". Anand Raju Character will live in audience hearts for long long time.
Manchu Manoj never ceases to surprise me with the kind of roles he is choosing. He is simply superb in his character as Rock star. The emotion he has show when he is beaten by Bajrangdal activists , when he tries to save a pregnant lady is awesome.
He finally ends up his life along with Allu to save people will let the audience in gloom.
Manoj Bajpai is awesome in his role as a muslim who loses his unborn twins in a Hindu Muslim fight. The scenes between him and police officer, Ravi prakash would have set audience under current but a lot of the dialogues between them were silenced by the censor.
Anushka is good in the little role offered to her. Her character is more limited to a guest appearance except to utter some wonderful dialogues every now and then. Deeksha Seth and Lekha are more subdued as heroines in every big movie these days.
Special mention to Saranya who acted as Padma. What an actress she is ! It looked like motherhood personified when she sells kidney to free her son from slavery and educate him.

First half of the movie is very slow. Second half more towards the climax is spell bound. Comedy track is missing in the movie. A surely Award winning movie and will be a favourite for people who love the class of movies like Gmya, Prasthanam. Commercial success of the movie depends more on how mass audience in B, C Centres receive it. Three cheers from my side to the entire film unit especially the director.
