Raviteja is back with a bang !!

Warning: Spoilers
BALUPU !

As we all know that Raviteja has taken some time to score a hit.Because his past films like DCM,Neninthe and Sirocharu are considered as duds at BO.

Review: Ravi(RaviTeja) is a software engineer with humorous character. Ravi's father(Prakashraj) is in a hurry to marry him. In this situation Ravi will come across a girl called shruthi(shruthi hassan) who lives with his uncle Crazy Mohan(Bramhanandam). Ravi's friend(Rajesh) who tries to commit suicide because of the traits shruthi and crazy mohan. Ravi wants to teach shruthi a lesson. In this process shruthi falls to Ravi.The rest of the part has to be seen in the theater.

The Interval twist worked out well. Ashutosh Rana played a very good as a baddie. The second half of the story has a flashback which came out very well. The comedy scenes between Ravi and crazymohan is a joy to watch. Even the climax of the movie is filled with a dance called "Jamping Japang" (IPL Theme song 2013).

Final Verdict :

The movie Balupu is worth watching with some unbelievable comedy scenes between Ravi Teja and Brammanandam. Raviteja is back with a bang..!!

Ravi teja is transforming into Bore Maharaj
Ansango28 December 2014
Warning: Spoilers
Another painful movie....... Balupu tries too hard to become entertaining but falls flat.It is a complete torturing experience.The movie is a complete bore.The story was too weak.It tells the story of Shankar who wants to marry a girl who is the future wife of a gangster's nephew.Shankar and his father has a dark secret which blocks their way.How Shankar overcomes the problem and marries the girl is the rest.The same usual story with few twists and over the top action has been repeated again The limping story has been saved by the good direction of Gopichand.Another plus point of the movie is the comedy of Brahmanandam.The start was average but it keeps you entertained due to Brahmi's good comedy.The twist before the climax was average.The flashback story was grossly bad which spoils the whole movie.I felt sorry for Ravi teja who wastes his talent in such movies.Using your logic in the movie would be a heinous crime as the movie was totally illogical especially the climax which was so unconvincing and terrible.In the end a door for its sequel has been kept open.When i heard that this movie is going to be remade in Hindi then i felt so sorry for Bollywood film industry.Bollywood is a developing industry and they should try to make good movies instead of copying a mindless movie. Ravi is a good actor and again he proves his talent.His dialogs delivery and acting is very good.Brahmi is awesome.His comic timing is superb.Shruti looks good but don't have much to do.Prakash raj was average.Rest of the cast was OK. Direction of the movie is very good.Music and cinematography is average.The editing is bad as the movie can have been shortened. Watch it just for Brahmi's comedy or if you are a die hard Ravi fan.It is a usual mindless entertainer without a plot.A one time watchable movie... 5.1 out of 10 would be enough.

Mass Entertainer
IPyaarCinema20 July 2022
Warning: Spoilers
Ravi Teja has toned down his energy levels for this role. He looks superb in the mass character and he has uttered the punch dialogues with conviction. Shruti Haasan looks ultra gorgeous in the movie. Anjali has a crucial role in the film and she has done a good job. Brahmanandam entertains as Crazy Mohan and he steals the show during the climax episodes. Comedy sequences involving Ravi Teja and Brahmanandam are good. Balupu ends up being a mass masala entertainer that is definitely worth a watch.
