Story
Bharat
Ram
(Mahesh
Babu),
returns
from
London
to
pay
homage
to
his
deceased
father,
Raghav
Raju
(R.
Sarathkumar).
He
is
then
asked
to
take
over
the
Chief
Minister's
mantle
by
Varadaraju
(Prakash
Raj),
party
head
and
friend
of
Raghav
Raju.
Bharat
realizes
that
there
are
a
series
of
things
disoriented
in
the
state
of
Andhra
Pradhesh
and
hence,
decides
to
streamline
all
of
them.
Bharat
falls
in
love
with
Vasumathi
(Kiara
Advani)
which
turns
mutual
at
some
point.
Political
cloud
force
them
to
part
ways
and
a
string
of
certain
hurdles
encounter
the
young
minister
during
his
journey.

Mahesh
Babu
is
undoubtedly
the
priced
asset
of
the
movie.
He
is
slick,
stylish
and
commanding
as
the
uber
cool
chief
minister.
His
intensity
and
base
voice
steals
thunder
and
it's
a
total
feast
time
for
Babu's
fans.
Kiara
is
ravishing
and
compliments
Mahesh
totally
onscreen.
She
could
be
the
next
heroine
to
be
in
demand
in
the
town.
Prakash
Raj
as
the
party
leader
is
terrific
and
commands
immense
screen
presence.
R.
Sarathkumar
as
Bharat's
father
appears
and
vanishes
in
a
jiffy.
Ravishankar
is
visible
for
not
more
than
4-5
scenes,
but
he
impresses
in
all
of
them.
Posani
Krishna
Murali
is
at
his
usual
best.
Rest
of
the
cast
has
rendered
justice
to
their
roles.
Technical
Aspects
Art
Direction
is
one
of
the
major
highlights
of
the
flick.
Suresh
Selvarajan
deserves
equal
applause
in
parallel
with
the
director
for
creating
the
latter's
vision
into
reality.
The
assembly
set
erected
by
him
and
his
team
is
just
breath
taking
as
even
the
real
assembly
might
look
pale
in
front
this
imitation.
Cinematography
by
Ravi
Chandran
and
Tirru,
throughout
the
flick,
runs
as
one's
eyes
and
not
as
camera.
The
swift
changing
of
lighting
and
colour
tone,
especially
between
the
serious
part
of
the
subject
and
during
lighter
vein
is
commendable.
When
the
run
time
of
a
certain
movie
is
exceedingly
high,
editing
plays
a
pivotal
role
and
the
job
has
to
be
accurate
to
avoid
boredom.
Sreekar's
editing
is
top
notch
which
suffices
the
requirement.
Sequences
zip
past
one
after
the
other
with
swift
cuts
without
the
audiences
undergo
feel
any
lag
throughout
the
movie.
Devi
Sri
Prasad
is
probably
in
his
honeymoon
phase.
All
that
he
touched
has
turned
into
gold
and
Bharat
Ane
Nenu
is
no
exception.
Background
Music
is
emotional,
intense
and
generates
goosebumps
and
songs
are
already
chartbusters,
which
are
ruling
the
roost.
Vacchadayyo
Saami
and
Bharat
Ane
Nenu
theme
song
stand
out,
both
as
an
audio
and
with
its
visuals
as
well.
Koratala
Siva,
who
is
known
to
blend
emotion,
message
and
social
concerne
at
right
proportions
in
his
movies,
has
comeback
with
the
same
formula
this
time
around
as
well.
Siva's
writing
is
immaculate
and
he
seems
to
have
mastered
the
art
of
gauging
the
pulse
of
the
audience.
However,
the
second
part
of
the
movie
dips
in
momentum
as
compared
to
the
initial
half.
His
focus
and
concentration
on
burning
issues
such
as
education,
traffic
rules
and
development
of
rural
areas
are
commendable
and
the
same
has
been
captured
to
perfection.
