Saikumar
has
played
as
police
officer
in
many
film
and
he
is
more
popular
for
dubbing
his
voice
to
Rajasekhar
and
several
others.
His
son
Aadhi
is
making
his
debut,
as
hero
in
Prema
Kavali.
After
a
long
gap,
director
K
Vijaya
Bhaskar
has
wielded
the
megaphone.
Though,
the
director
is
known
for
bringing
out
love
subjects,
this
time,
he
has
changed
his
track
and
has
tried
his
hand
on
a
love
story
with
action
backdrop.
The
young
generation
heroes
try
to
prove
themselves
to
do
both
love
and
action
films
and
hence
the
film
has
turned
a
perfect
platform
for
the
debutant
hero.
Read
on
for
Prema
Kavali
review.
Story:
Prema
(Isha)
is
the
daughter
of
a
sincere
Rama
Rao
(Nasser),
who
was
a
jailer
of
Chanchalguda
jail.
The
film
begins
with
Appa
Rao
(Shafi)
blackmailing
her.
However,
she
was
caught
by
her
sister-in-law
Neeraja
(Sindhu
Tolani),
who
comes
to
know
the
fact.
Prema
reveals
the
flashback,
wherein
she
befriends
with
Srinu
(Aadhi)
her
classmate
and
turns
a
little
intimate
with
him
just
as
a
friend.
However,
Srinu
gives
her
a
peck
in
a
fit
of
emotion
and
Appa
Rao
gets
it
clicked
with
his
mobile
camera
and
started
blackmailing
her.
First,
they
suspect
Srinu"s
hand.
Soon
after
Srinu"s
return
from
an
NCC
camp
held
at
Himachal
Pradesh,
Neeraja
meets
him,
talks
to
him
and
finds
the
honesty
in
his
eyes.
Now,
Srinu
sets
in
to
find
out,
who
was
blackmailing
her.
In
fact,
Appa
Rao
was
employed
by
Thakur
(Dev
Gill)
of
Mumbai
to
kidnap
her.
Thakur
wanted
to
rescue
an
international
terrorist
from
the
jail
by
kidnapping
Prema
and
to
threaten
Rama
Rao
to
release
him.
But,
because
of
Srinu"s
intervention
he
fails
in
his
attempt.
Now,
Thakur
comes
to
know
that
the
terrorist
is
being
shifted
from
Chanchalguda
jail
and
the
information
would
be
a
top
secret
as
the
road
map
for
the
shifting
of
the
terrorist
would
be
e-mailed
to
him
by
higher
authorities.
So,
he
tells
Appa
Rao
to
find
out
the
password
of
the
e-mail
from
Prema.
What
happens
next
should
be
seen
on-screen.
Performance:
Aadhi
has
done
his
role
with
good
ease
and
his
in
dialogue
delivery
is
as
good
as
his
father.
He
is
quite
comfortable
in
emoting
the
love
and
emotional
scenes
and
he
is
also
good
at
dances
and
action
scenes.
However,
he
should
further
improve
his
body
language,
as
he
appeared
a
little
rigid
in
some
scenes.
But
for
a
debutant
hero,
such
situations
are
unavoidable.
Isha
Chawla
has
a
beautiful
and
cute
face.
However,
she
too
needs
to
improve
her
body
language.
Though,
she
is
glamorous
and
has
the
guts
to
expose
in
romantic
scenes,
she
should
also
be
able
to
show
facial
expressions
and
histrionics.
Shafi
has
a
little
more
screen
presence
in
this
film
and
Dev
Gill
is
okay,
as
a
cruel
villain
and
a
mafia
don.
Nazar,
Sindhu
Tolani
have
done
justice
to
their
respective
roles.
Jayasudha
and
Nagababu
appeared
only
in
one
scene,
while
Brahmanandam
has
tried
to
tickle
the
funny
bone
but
in
real
terms
this
comedy
genius
has
failed
to
evoke
any
kind
of
entertainment.
Ali
is
okay,
as
a
chain
snatcher.
Technical:
Vijaya
Bhaskar
has
penned
a
simple
story.
However,
he
has
ensured
that
the
script
would
suit
a
debut
hero
and
has
not
given
many
twists
and
not
many
scenes
to
showcase
his
performance
capabilities.
Songs
as
well
as
action
scenes
are
kept
at
perfect
timings
to
give
adequate
relief.
The
director
has
succeeded
in
elevating
Aadhi
as
hero.
Prasad
Varma
has
tried
to
pen
the
dialogues
on
the
lines
of
Trivikram,
as
he
filled
the
humour
at
right
intervals.
Cinematography
by
Chota
K
Naidu
has
suited
the
best
for
the
film.
The
second
half
appears
a
little
stretched,
especially
after
20
minutes
of
the
interval
bang
till
half-an-hour
before
the
climax.
Almost
some
40
minutes
in
the
second
half
turns
a
little
boring
but
the
director
has
tightened
his
belt
for
giving
an
impressive
climax.
Gauthamraju
should
have
sharpened
his
scissors
in
trimming
those
40
minutes
to
15
minutes
in
the
second
half.
All
the
tunes
given
by
Anup
Rubens
are
good
to
listen
and
melodious.
Background
score
could
have
been
better
if
he
has
paid
some
more
attention.
The
director
has
failed
to
maintain
the
tempo
in
the
second
half
due
to
a
staggered
screenplay.
Remarks:
Climax
is
impractical
with
a
mafia
gang
using
a
land
route
to
rescue
an
international
terrorist
and
the
hero
reaching
them
without
any
help.
Moreover,
there
is
nothing
novel
in
story
telling,
but
the
director
has
chosen
a
lighter
way
only
for
the
convenience
of
a
debutant
hero.
The
story
is
pretty
predictable.
Youths
may
like
the
story.
Mass
masala
elements
are
missing
in
the
film
and
the
commercial
success
of
the
film
is
doubtful.
However,
it
is
a
perfect
debut
film
for
a
newcomer.
A
good
time
pass
film.
