Disappointing...

[giribhushansvg · 5/10 · 18 May 2023]

Wasted opportunity, could have been better. Movie has good casting expect the main hero. Director didn't make use of their full potential.

Thin story, sluggish narration. Filled with too many random scenes.

Last 15 minutes could have been better. Family emotions were weak.

Santosh Sobhan didn't suite the role, his acting was weak.

Malvika Nair was very good in acting, her acting skills have improved a lot.

Vennela Kishore comedy was good. Director could have added more family comedy scenes rather than random scenes.

Rajendra Prasad, Rao Ramesh, Naresh are as usual good with there roles.

Gauthami was bad, she didn't carry right emotions as a mother.

One time watchable

[saisushma-91689 · 5/10 · 21 June 2023]

Six stars for Natural story line, direction and screenplay. The story goes very calm without any twists in the plot.........

Minus four stars for the lead Male actor. His acting is not convincing for the role. His plain, depressing expressions are totally opposite for the role of a guy who has lot of interest in life who is a food and travel blogger. Because of the lead actor (Rishi) i found the movie boring in many places. There are many better actors who can act naturally for the role. Should have choosen them instead. All other actors had done justice to their roles.

At the end it's not clear how arya breaks up with Ram.

Nice to see a story that happens in real life too. Overall movie is good.....

Soulful family movie

[magzuin · 7/10 · 12 July 2023]

This is very Soulful family movie, shows that love is far more important in life then revenge hatred and family differences, love between Rishi and Arya was well depicted even through it was conceled till the end. The issue of the kids being exchanged was treated very nicely and in a mature was without too much of Drama on the issue,

This movie is an eye opener for family who fight court cases year after year to resolve family disputes, life is far more important than this we should not sacrifice our lives to these trivial and stupid matters in life .

All in all verry nice movie definitely worth watching.

Ridiculous story line, worse acting

[cksquare · 4/10 · 31 July 2023]

How many times have seen the "hero" play and act like a loser throughout most of the movie, only to suddenly turn into the "hero"!!

Not that this is impossible, just that it was presented so very foolishly. And the actor who plays the role, had no clue how to emote or deliver his role.

The heroine Malvika and most others did a decent job. But the story offers no scope. Artificially creating situation out of nothing. Many such scene or situations, so very artificial!! Wonder if they thought this thru'.

And in the end, they quickly jumbled up everything. In 5 minutes or so, they quickly solved a lifetime problem. Only in the movies. But its not so bad these days. Well, this was.

Waste of time!

Breezy movie

[kalaivanicuteheart · 8/10 · 18 June 2023]

Hands down this movie made my weekend. A couple of things I liked the most about the movie, the locations in this movie were too good, the way they showed a female lead as a responsible person who saved her family was kind of new. Music was vera level. Great performance by the cast, most of them were veteran actors. Glad to watch Ashwin among them. I have been following the work of the female lead ever since Kuckoo came. She was amazing in this too. This is a breezy love story. The childhood love portions were cute. I had no clue that the female lead also was in love! This part was too subtle. Good one overall.

feelgood movie with a soul and great music

[vivekkvmit · 10/10 · 28 June 2023]

Another classic from nandini reddy, whom I rate as one of the finest directors of telugu film industry. Legendary supporting cast brought life to this movie with their great acting. Rajendra prasd and rao ramesh lived upto the expectations. Santhosh shoban is going places by taking up such meaningful films. Great love story. The song about traditional food is well written and well presented. Overall very pleasant film. I wish more films like this are made in Telugu industry which mostly presents us with meaningless hero mania with wafer thin story lines. A pleasant film you can watch with family and kids.

Feel good movie apart from last 15 mins

[kalyangourishetty · 8/10 · 18 June 2023]

Movie was pleasant and feel good apart from last 15 mins. But seriously it is hard to find a movie which can be watched along with kids and parents, yes I would say you can sit back and watch this movie with complete family..0%volugarity..Shoban role should have given more preference and Nair role was more highlighted. Rajender Prasad, Naresh and Rao Ramesh role was good.. Intensity of love story should have been more. Over all feel good movie. Have felt Nandini Reddy mark in direction of movie. Keep going madam All the best for all the cast and crew. Shoban waiting for blockbuster from you...

A sweet movie about the importance of different relationships

[komalthecoolk · 10/10 · 22 July 2023]

In this age of Telugu films saturated with "over-heroic hero defeats ultra-villainous villain" story lines, I really enjoy movies that breath in some fresh air. I will not get into the story but I love the fact that no one or two characters are the center of the film but instead the story revolves around the different relationships of multiple characters.

This is the most family-friendliest of family-friendly movies and watch it only if you're ready for it.

The only complaint I have is the audio lag or poorly done dubbing of the film. In almost 80% of the film, including the trailers, the audio doesn't seem to sync with the lip movement. Not sure why!?

Emotional Family Drama

[rudrosahajoy · 8/10 · 3 August 2023]

I began to watch it as romantic movie But ended with a emotional family movie. I recommend you all this movie only for Emotions and Emotions.

I really relate to the hero's character.

Both hero and heroin played a suitable role in their own way. Heroin's comic time is hilarious. The waiting for love and misunderstanding of love are connected to me heavily.

But that twist made me emotional though they reviled the plot twist in the beginning. I am waiting for watching the revile of plot twist and it made me emotional.

This movie is also available in Hindi on prime video. So, non-telegu people can enjoy it.

Relatable story

[siddharthapradhan-85083 · 10/10 · 7 July 2023]

This is the best movie for me. I can relate it with my own life. The hero , heroin and every character has their own role and most importantly they act superbly.

Especially the father and son relationship is my most favourite scene throughout the Movie.

It is always sweet and a happy vibe when heroin come to the picture.(Around 2wk ago I watched this movie so co-operate with hero , heroin).

Overall,I tried to tell the the reader that go and watch this wonderful family movie and try to learn something from it. The main lesson I got from the movie is 'We can't change or control anyone but we can love them and can do everything from them 💕💕

Excellent family movie

[mbusaemails · 10/10 · 21 June 2023]

This is a very well made movie with excellent music and acting. Director Nandini leaves her mark with touchy scenes ,not too melodramatic. Audience can place themselves in the characters and connect with the plot.

Senior actors like Rajendra Prasad,Naresh and Gautami hit sixes with their natural action.

Sobhan is a very underrated actor and deserves full credit.

Overall full marks to all cast and crew. Complete family oriented feel good movie.

Twist comes when no one is expecting but the drama was handled at ease by all cast and director. Kudos to the film unit, locations were lovely.

Cinematography is superb.

A good family movie..

[kvsuryamail · 10/10 · 1 July 2023]

It is a good movie, a heart-touching film, with no action or extra dramas. It is a simple movie that sails us like a ship on a river. The movie delivers an indirect message that a girl can also shoulder the entire responsibility of her family. There are no heroes or heroines in the movie; instead, we see well-developed characters. In the end, the emotions and feelings of the main characters are portrayed realistically, and the title song sung by Karthik is excellent. Overall, hats off to Director Nandini."
