Manchu family starrer Pandavulu Pandavulu Tummeda, which has garnered a lot of positive buzz due to its ensemble cast, has released in theatres today (January 31). The movie, which seems to have been inspired from hit Bollywood movie Golmaal 3, is good commercial movie, which is high on entertainment quotient.

Pandavulu Pandavulu Tummeda is decent family entertainer with all masala elements. Lead actors' performances are the main highlight in the film. Srivas' engaging narration, Baba Sehgal, Achu and Bappi Lahari's music and background score, Palani Kumar's beautiful picturisation, comedy scenes and witty dialogues are other attractions of the movie. The predictable story is one big drawback of the film.

Director Srivas, who has penned story of Pandavulu Pandavulu Tummeda, seems to have taken inspiration from the movie Golmaal 3. Kona Venkat, Gopi Mohan and BVS Ravi, who have penned the screenplay have done a commendable job. It has all commercial elements as well as a few interesting twists and turns. The narration of the movie is crispy and it engages the audience right from the beginning to end.

Naidu (Mohan Babu) is staying with his family comprising three orphan sons (Manoj, Varun Sandesh and Tanish) in Bangkok. His love Raveena is a foster mother to two sons (Vishnu and Vennela Kishore). When Mohan Babu and Raveena decide to get married, but the feud between their children creates tension in their marriage. What are the hurdles they face to get united will form the crux of the story.

All the lead actors like Mohan Babu, Vishnu, Manoj, Raveena Tandon, Hansika, Pranitha, Tanish and Varun Sandesh have delivered their brilliant performances, which are the big assets of Pandavulu Pandavulu Tummeda. Comedians like Brahmanandam, Ali, Raghu Babu, Vennela Kishore, MS Narayana, Thagubothu Ramesh and Krishna Bhagavan have also tried their best to tickle the funny bones of the viewers.

Pandavulu Pandavulu Tummeda has wonderful production elements and Achu and Baba Sehgal's soundtracks and background score are main attractions in the technical front. The lyrics are equally good. Palani Kumar has done brilliant cinematography in the exotic locales in Bangkok. MR Varma's editing is also good, but he should have trimmed dragging scenes in the second half. Other technical departments have also delivered commendable works.

Overall, Pandavulu Pandavulu Tummeda is a good family entertainer. It is treat for comedy lovers. If you are a comedy lover, don't miss to watch it. Continue to read Pandavulu Pandavulu Tummeda viewers' review in the slideshow...
