    Good Telugu movie to watch
    Bheeshma is overall a good movie. It is about the great Mahabharata hero, Bheeshma who did everything to treat his grand-nephews, the Pandavas and the Kauravas equally. But unfortunately, his penchant towards the Pandavas led to a bigger breach between the two cousins. This is the story of the great, but somewhat tragic hero. N.T. Rama Rao is great as usual for an actor. Gummadi is a good actor for Karna. Anjali Devi is good as Amba, and Kantha Rao's role as Shalva is a little short. Dhulipalla's role as Duryodhana is not the best, but is still all right. Though the title of the movie is Bheeshma, it is also about Karna, as it has his whole story too. For Indian mythology fans, you will like this movie.
