The
first
film
in
the
Pongal
race
this
year
and
NTR's
25th
film,
Nannaku
Prematho
released
in
theaters
amidst
the
fans
galore.
Read
the
review
to
know
if
Sukumar
and
NTR's
duo
has
succeeded
in
meeting
the
high
expectations.
Abhiram(NTR),
whose
father
is
in
deathbed
and
has
only
30
days
of
life
left,
takes
the
revenge
on
Krishnamurthy(Jagapathi
Babu),
who
cheated
his
father
in
the
past.
He
gives
him
a
run
for
of
his
money
by
trapping
his
daughter
Divyanka(Rakul
Preet
Singh).
To
take
a
look
into
the
flashback,
Krishnamurthy
cheats
his
close
friend
and
Abhiram's
father,
Ramesh
Chandra
Prasad,
due
to
which
Ramesh
Chandra
Prasad
changes
his
name
and
identity
and
lives
a
normal
life,
away
from
his
people.
The
last
wish
Ramesh
asks
his
son
is
to
get
back
his
lost
identity
and
that's
when
Abhiram
decided
to
give
nightmares
to
Krishnamurthy.
How
Abhiram
frames
Krishnamurthy,
who
is
a
brainy,
forms
the
rest
of
the
story.
Performances:
NTR
delivers
the
kind
of
performance
that
would
only
come
with
an
experience
of
100
films,
with
just
his
25th
film.
Nannaku
Prematho
not
only
gives
the
actor
a
different
look,
but
also
gives
a
complete
image
makeover.
It
proves
a
point
that
NTR
has
the
capacity
to
pull
off
any
role
and
not
just
those
loud
dialogues
or
thigh
slaps.
All
he
needs
is
a
director,
who
can
offer
him
an
august
character.
Rakul
Preet
has
also
given
her
best
for
the
film
and
her
own
dubbing
sounded
pretty
apt
for
her
role.
Hard
work
pays
off,
they
say.
It
is
a
different
character
sketch
for
Jagapathi
Babu,
Rajiv
Kanakala
and
Rajendra
Prasad
too
and
we
must
they
have
excelled
in
their
skill.
Technical
Aspects:
More
than
anything,
Nannaku
Prematho
is
a
technically
rich
film
and
Sukumar
deserves
a
hands
down
for
his
intelligence
in
dealing
a
normal
revenge
plot,
this
unique.
They
way
he
imbibed
the
concepts
of
Physics
and
Mathematics
into
the
film
is
mind-blowing.
If
you
have
ever
thought
in
your
life
that
you
would
never
really
put
your
bookish
knowledge
into
practice
in
life,
Sukumar
proves
you
wrong
and
teaches
you
how
to
do
it.
However,
the
most
disappointing
thing
is
the
extreme
resemblance
of
a
few
scenes
with
Tamil
super
hit
film
Thani
Oruvan.
Cinematography,
dialogues,
production
values
were
top-notch.
While
the
songs
were
nicely
placed,
Devi
Sri
Prasad's
real
potential
comes
out
in
the
form
of
the
background
music
of
this
film.
He
makes
your
heart
pound
with
his
touching
music
in
the
climax
and
the
special
song
he
has
written
in
the
film
will
haunt
you.
Overview:
Though
you
might
need
a
little
patience
and
great
concentration
to
enjoy
Sukumar's
Nannaku
Prematho,
it
is
worth
it.
We
rarely
get
to
watch
different
films
on
Telugu
screen
and
Nannaku
Prematho
is
one
such,
we
would
be
proud
to
show
as
a
Telugu
film
to
our
future
generations.
We
doubt
if
it
clicks
with
mass
audience
though.
Read
the
analysis
and
the
main
drawbacks
of
the
film
in
the
slides
below.
Introduction
NTR
is
introduced
in
a
simple
way
with
a
running
shot,
followed
by
a
fight
and
song.
The
character
sketch
of
NTR
will
be
revealed
with
the
intro
scene
itself,
in
a
typical
Sukumar's
style
of
narrative.
Run
Time
Though
the
film
is
about
2
hours
48
Minutes,
Sukumar
made
sure
the
pace
of
the
film
is
racy.
Rakul
Preet
Singh
Rakul
and
NTR
scenes
were
conceived
in
a
different
way
and
the
love
track
can
be
called
as
one
of
the
best
one
among
Sukumar's
films.
The
scene
in
the
coffee
shop
was
amazing.
Rakul
NTR
and
Rakul
makes
a
good
pair
on-screen
and
let
us
tell
you
there
are
two
lip
kiss
shots
in
the
film.
Sukumar
Here
comes
the
down
side
of
the
film,
Sukumar
has
gone
a
little
overboard
with
his
concepts
and
it
might
be
a
mind
boiler
for
people,
who
dislikes
to
stress
their
brains,
watching
a
film.
A
few
logics
used
in
the
film
might
not
be
appealing
to
mass
crowds.
Inspired
The
mind
games
between
hero
and
the
villain
might
remind
you
of
Thani
Oruvan
while
there
were
also
a
few
'inspired' scenes
straight
away
in
the
film.
Scenes
But
Sukumar
must
be
appreciated
for
blending
in
the
scenes
perfectly
and
giving
the
film
a
new
touch.
Nannaku
Prematho
can
be
called
as
a
daring
attempt,
considering
the
kind
of
pressure
NTR
and
Sukumar
are
currently
in.
Songs
Songs
will
surely
get
hooting
and
shouting
from
fans
and
the
foot-tapping
numbers
give
you
a
high.
But
disappointingly,
NTR
did
not
dance
much
this
time.
Jagapathi
The
hero
turned
villain
gets
a
equally
well
written
role
to
play
like
NTR,
in
the
film
and
the
he
played
it
with
ease
that
you
might
end
up
believing
he
is
actually
very
crooked
in
nature.
Production
Values
Filmed
largely
in
Britain
and
Spain,
the
film
offers
beautiful
locales
and
a
great
movie
watching
experience.
Styling
It
is
not
just
NTR
who
looked
stylish
in
the
film
but
the
entire
cast
were
looking
their
best
in
the
film.
The
film's
styling
deserves
a
shout
out.
Plot
Hussain
Shah
Kiran,
a
short
film
maker,
who
triggered
the
idea
of
Nannaku
Prematho
and
worked
along
with
Sukumar
for
the
film,
deserves
a
mention.
Final
Verdict
Well
for
the
movie
buffs
and
NTR
fans
out
there,
he
is
a
promising
film
from
NTR
and
Sukumar
for
you,
to
enjoy
this
Sankranthi.
