Rating:
4.0/5
Two years after the success of Jalsa, Power Star Pawan Kalyan has once again teamed up with ace director Trivikram Srinivas for his latest Telugu film Attarintiki Daredi (AD), which has hit the marquee today after facing several hiccups. It is a simple family drama. Although it does not have a great story, it will impress the viewers and live up to the hype and expectations that it had created prior its release.

Attarintiki Daredi is a romantic action entertainer with all masala ingredients to woo mass as well as class audiences. Pawan Kalyan's brilliant performance is the main attraction in the film. Trivikram's interesting screenplay, punch dialogues and funny onliners, Samantha-Pranitha's glamour, DSP's music, Prasad Murella's camera work, Peter Hein's fights, beautiful costumes, locales and art direction will be other highlights of the film. A few predictable and over the top scenes are its drawbacks.

Besides direction, Trivikram Srinivas has also written story and screenplay for Attarintiki Daredi, which does not boast of any great story. The movie has simple story dealt in a typical Trivikram style. It has a nice blend of commercial ingredients like romance, comedy, action, punch dialogues, trendy music, family sentiment and beautiful locales. The director has included a few interesting twists and turns in the screenplay.

Attarintiki Daredi opens with the kidnapping of Samantha, who narrates her flashback story to Dhanraj, Venu and gang. The first half of the movie is very entertaining with some romantic, comedy scenes and couple of songs also impresses you in this portion. An interesting twist at the interval bang sets momentum for the story. While the first half has fast-paced narration, a few sentimental scenes slow down its pace in the second half. The climax is predictable, yet it is very heart touching.
