Nallamalupu
Srinivas
(Bujji)
who
had
produced
the
blockbuster
Lakshmi
with
Venkatesh,
has
again
roped
in
the
same
hero
for
his
next
movie
Chintakayala
Ravi.
Lakshmi
had
some
action
in
the
backdrop
but
this
time,
Venkatesh
has
chosen
a
flick,
which
has
a
storyline
with
family
entertainment,
with
a
touch
of
sentiment.
Directed
by
Yogesh,
the
film
really
has
the
Venkatesh-type
of
comedy
and
the
film
will
reminds
the
audiences
of
his
earlier
films
Nuvvu
Naaku
Nachav
and
the
recent
Aadavari
Maatalaku
Ardhale
Verule.
Though
the
storyline
is
a
little
routine
one,
the
treatment
is
novel
and
the
audiences
will
be
able
to
enjoy
the
flick.
Chintakayala
Ravi
(Venkatesh)
is
a
normal
student.
However,
he
is
attached
to
his
mother
Seshumamba
(Lakshmi)
and
in
order
to
please
her,
he
convinces
that
he
is
a
bright
student.
With
the
craze
for
software
engineers,
Seshu
sends
him
to
the
US
to
undergo
software
engineer
course.
Ravi
spends
the
money
for
the
surgery
of
a
friend
(Venu
Thottempudi)
and
sacrifices
his
career.
In
order
to
make
Seshu
believe
that
he
is
doing
a
software
engineer's
job,
he
stays
back
in
the
US
by
working
as
a
bartender.
Seshu
continues
to
believe
that
he
is
a
software
engineer
and
arranges
an
alliance
with
Mamidikayala
family.
Lavanya
(Mamta
Mohandas),
who
has
a
craze
for
staying
abroad
agrees
to
marry
Ravi.
She
calls
up
her
friend
Sunita
(Anushka)
in
the
US
to
enquire
about
Ravi.
Sunita
could
not
find
the
software
firm
with
the
name,
but
only
finds
a
bar
with
the
name.
Incidentally
she
comes
across
Ravi
and
believes
that
he
is
a
cheat
and
a
womaniser.
Sunita
unravels
the
secret
that
Ravi
is
just
a
bartender
and
not
a
software
engineer.
Lavanya's
father
(Sayaji
Shinde)
cancels
the
alliance
and
slaps
Ravi's
father
for
cheating
them
right
in
front
of
Ravi.
So
Ravi
decides
to
avenge
the
insult
caused
by
Sunita.
So,
he
spoils
the
alliance
of
Sunita,
due
to
which
her
father
(Chalapati
Rao)
is
admitted
hospital
with
a
heart
attack.
However,
Ravi
saves
him
from
life
threat,
when
he
suffers
from
breathlessness.
In
the
hospital,
Sunitha
learns
that
Venkatesh
is
a
gentleman,
who
has
sacrificed
his
career
to
help
a
friend.
This
makes
Sunitha
befriend
Ravi
and
the
latter
tries
to
bring
an
alliance
for
Sunitha
as
he
had
spoiled
it.
In
the
course
of
time,
both
Sunitha
and
Ravi
fall
in
love
with
each
other.
Meanwhile,
Ravi's
friends
call
up
the
friend
whom
Ravi
had
saved
and
in
turn
goes
to
Lavanya's
house
and
explains
everything.
This
sets
everything
right
and
again
the
marriage
gets
fixed.
Being
the
best
friend
Sunita
also
attends
the
marriage.
In
the
climax,
everyone
comes
to
know
that
Ravi
and
Sunita
are
in
love
with
each
other
and
Lavanya
steps
aside
to
get
them
united.
The
film
ends
on
a
happy
note.
PLUS:
Venkatesh
single
handedly
manages
the
entire
show.
It
is
he
who
entertainsthe
audiences
with
his
comedy,
touches
the
hearts
of
woman
audiences
with
his
performance
in
sentimental
scenes
and
enthralls
the
youth
with
his
dances.
He
has
proved
once
again
that
he
is
an
all-rounder
beyond
an
'image'.
Anushka
has
a
lot
of
scope
for
performance
and
surprisingly,
the
director
has
ensured
that
the
camera
doesn't
focus
on
her
waist
as
other
directors
choose
to
cash
in
on
her
glamour.
She
has
done
a
neat
job
and
has
got
the
audiences
prepared
to
see
her
in
a
serious
role
as
a
prelude
to
a
heroine-oriented
film
Arundhati
with
herself
playing
the
title
role.
Mamta
Mohandas'
role
is
limited
to
a
couple
of
duets
in
the
first
half.
She
does
not
have
much
scope
to
perform.
Another
speciality
of
the
film
is
that
Young
Tiger
NT
Rama
Rao
has
shaken
his
legs
along
with
Venkatesh
in
a
song,
which
has
attracted
many
an
audience.
As
far
as
direction
is
concerned,
Yogesh
has
improved
a
lot
from
Oka
Raju
Oka
Rani.
He
has
maintained
a
nice
tempo
all
through
the
film.
Though
the
first
half
remains
a
little
nagging,
he
has
got
a
firm
grip
in
the
second
half
and
has
made
the
film
interesting.
Camera
work
by
Ravindrababu
is
okay
and
he
has
been
able
to
capture
the
beauty
of
the
US.
The
colour
schemes
and
lighting
also
perfectly
suits
the
scenes.
MINUS:
Music
by
Vishal-Sekhar
duo
is
a
minus.
The
music
beat
overrides
the
lyrics
in
some
songs.
But
for
two
songs,
'Valla
Valla
Valla
Baby…
'
and
'Baagunde…'
none
of
the
other
songs
are
impressive.
They
have
copied
their
own
tune
from
Om
Shanti
Om
for
the
bit
song
before
the
climax.
Background
score
is
somewhat
better
with
Manisharma
taking
charge
of
it.
Editing
by
Srikar
Prasad
should
have
been
sharper.
Especially,
the
scenes
where
the
hero
brings
alliance
for
Anushka
appears
boring
and
is
stretched
beyond
limit.
Dialogues
by
Kona
Venkat
are
partly
good.
Comedy
by
Ali
was
boring
and
nagging.
REMARKS:
The
production
values
of
Sri
Lakshmi
Narasimha
Productions
are
excellent
and
the
producer
has
spent
lavishly
for
the
film
as
most
of
the
film
was
shot
in
the
US.
No
doubt,
the
film
would
run
well
in
all
the
centres.
The
film
would
not
bring
loss
to
the
producer,
but
its
commercial
success
range
could
be
known
on
how
far
the
youth
and
mass
audiences
receive,
especially
in
the
absence
of
mass
masala
scenes
and
action
episodes.
