Review

Story

The film begins with India in 2030 and it is ultra developed. Even Warangal becomes international airport and cab drivers, servants at home are foreigners.

Only cars like Porsche, Bentley are used by the cab drivers while skyscrapers, clean roads take over. A foreign journalist Edward comes to Hyderabad to know the reason for this change in just 20 years.

This leads him to a flashback journey of one Subhash Chandra Gandhi (Upendra), a multi-millionaire based in London but very Indian at heart. His patriotism gets him closer to the rather domestic looking Indira (Nayantara) and he marries her. However, Indira has a strong motive to destroy Gandhi.

What is that motive? How did Gandhi change India? All this forms the rest of the story.

Artists Performance:

Upendra as usual is at his eccentric best and his variety get ups, funny hairstyles, funny dressing fits the bill. Performance wise, he has given a decent act.

Nayantara looks alright but after cutting down her weight, she has lost that charm and glow. While her eyes contain most of the magic, she did her bit as required and made her presence felt.

Tulip Joshi looks sizzling hot, Ali was alright, Jeeva was usual, Sadhu Kokila was okay, Dhandapani was loud, Sudarshan was standard, Nagendra Shah was natural, Rockline Venkatesh made a brief cameo.

Highlights:

* Idea of assuming India in 2030
* The unconventional narrative
* The characterization of ‘negative’ Narayana
* Visual effects

Drawbacks:

* Crazy scene sequences
* More of mass touch than class in scenes
* Illogical situations
* Second half

Final Analysis:

For starters, this is a film that can be understood by those who are already used to the Upendra flavor of films.

As such, his intention is noble in this film but then it is the way he has presented it that gets the quality down.

While there are some really notable and praiseworthy points in his contention, it is the mass way he presents it which takes away the feel. In a way, some might argue that what the film tries to convey is absolutely difficult but there are those who feel it is the ideal way of shaping up the society and what Upendra has shown contains lot of truth.

The film appeals on technical aspects especially at the start, the mass audience will connect. At the box office, this has a strong chance of landing in profit zone.
