Special Note to the amazing debutant team. Vaishnav Tej and Krithi Shetty absolutely crushed it. They look like very experienced actors. We can clearly see their hard work that they have put into this film. Director Buchi Babu has also done good job for debutant director. Vijay Sethupathi as krithi's father is amazing at his role; this movie has so much more depth only because of his role. DSP Songs and Background Score is the biggest highlight of the movie!! His music will make people come to the theatre!

In Depth Analysis:

1st half: The movie starts off amazing with Vijay Sethupathi and establishing his constant strive to protect his "paruvu." We have seen this in many movies but the way they have shown it in the movie is quiet interesting. Then comes the Hero introduction. It was pretty good and fit for a debutant actor from the MEGA FAMILY. Vaishnav's eyes have this nice glow which makes him have a nice aura around him. The part where Vijay Sethupathi is searching for who krithi's lover is the best part in the whole film. The way the tension rises creates a feeling of tension in our hearts also.

2nd half: At the end of the first half when vijay sethupathi kills Vaishnav's father we will eagerly wait to see what will happen next but this is where the director disappoints. Generally if that situation happens, then Vaishnav is supposed to take revenge on Vijay Sethupathi and some amount of distance should arouse between krithi and vaishnav. Instead the director decides to add a twist which was totally unnecessary.

When krithi and vaishnav run off from vijay instead of revenge vaishnav decides to tell vijay sethupathi where his daughter is and give away her location. That is the dumbest thing ever. The whole revenge aspect is ignored and vaishnav kind of supports the guy who killed his father. All in all even though the screenplay makes practically no sense the climax scene was well executed and krithi's action is exceptionally well and. One can say KRITHI was the main pillar of the movie just for her mind blowing acting.

Overall the movie is a routine story executed very well that deviates itself in the second half; also has amazing performances and is exceptional for a debutant team!

Scale to compare

9.0/10 Mahanati, 8.0/10 Bahubali 1 & 2, 7.0/10 Ala Vaikunta puramu lo, 6.0/10 Uppena, 5.0/10 Saaho, 4.0/10 Agnyathavasi.

Routine Love story with extra twist and lover over lust things makes this movie watchable... The cast and making is extraordinary.... The songs are another saving grace for the movie and flow... Worth the watch...

Uppena

An wild and cenamatic love tale which we missed since the late 2000's . Only after watching this we feel what we missed , the love in the air feel of an non-mobile era , the rustic opposing fathers and carving gilrs , really we should have moves like this now and then.

There is nothing special in this expect for the last 15 minutes ( expect of Vijay Sethupathi, his presence is fresh even in this aga old character) The last twist( so called) which was forshadowed In the first half, is crude in the sense , like which the audience didn't ask for but needed .

The stars are Vijay Sethupathi obviously , krithi Shetty is the best 17 old heroin I have even seen, she is bold and flirty , vaissshnav Tej looks humble , not that bad for his first move but a bit pale beside Vijay Sethupathi and krithi Shetty.

Over all , an ordinary movie with a good dynamic climax ( I don't use a twist because it's forshadowed , only we have to watch properly).

P.S Songs and drone shots( cinematography ) are good , real good.

No over dramatizing scenes, neatly presented and good set up and pay offs, the routine concept with mentioned above points makes this good watch.

Debutants are good, Music was refreshing, feel feared of vijay sethupathi.

Not a great movie but creating artificial huge buzzzz or hype on movie. Movie having a strong point or story but failed to present it.
