There is a lot of scope for improvement in the editing department. The scenes are shot with a realistic approach. The cinematography of Ram Prasad is decent. The choreography is marvellous and the songs are shot extravagantly. Though the BGM is impressive, its loudness distracts the audience at times. Music director Chiranthan Bhatt’s music is above par, excluding a couple of songs. Technical side:ĭirector KS Ravikumar should have put more focus on the story, than on Balayya, to make it more appealing to wide range of audience. Rest of the actors performed accordingly. Brahmanandam comedy did not work out well. Ashutosh Rana and Prabhakar did a good job as villains. Hari Priya and Natasha Doshi’s have very limited screen presence. A couple of heroic scenes in the first half and interval scene sets the tone nicely for the second half.

Prakash Raj was his usual self in his supporting role as a father to Nayantara. Her role elevates the emotional theme of the film. Nayantara who gets a meaty role makes a strong impact on her acting and adds depth to the film. ‘Ammakutty song’ is a Sankranti treat for all his fans. The surprise comes with his dancing skills, where his performance is worth watching. Balayya’s screen presence and his trademark dialogues are bound to impress the masses. Undeniably, Balakrishna is the biggest strength of the movie. Who is this Narasimha? What is his background? What is his equation with Gauri? Why did he leave Vijayawada and come to live in Kumbakonam? The story revolves and evolves from here.

From here, the director reveals the violent flashback of Narasimha, his acquaintance with Vijayawada politician Rami Reddy (Ashutosh Rana) and his teacher, reprised by Prakash Raj.

He spots his ex-wife, Gauri during his brawl with the cop. He establishes his livelihood there and starts working as a driver for a temple priest (Murali Mohan).ĭespite leading a peaceful life with his son, Narasimha’s patience was put to test the villain (Kalakeya Prabhakar) and a local corrupt police officer. The movie opens with Narasimha (Balayya) holding a one-year-old child in his arms, travelling from one city to another city across the country before he finally settles in Kumbakkonam. Cast: Balakrishna, Nayantara, Ashutosh Rana, Prakash Raj, Brahmanandam.
