A movie that's made with good visuals and wonderful music but lacks emotional depth.
There are many highs throughout the film, but they didn't move me much. Perhaps, I felt it was a bit fabricated for my liking. I felt like many cinematic liberties were taken for enhancing the drama. Establishing friendship then a conflict between the two lead characters and finally a happy conclusion, it felt like manipulating the drama for keeping the viewers engaged. Having said that, in totality, it's definitely worth watching once but we can get back to some well-shot scenes multiple times.
I loved the acting of the leads especially NTR Jr who displayed a range of emotions and hit the chord perfectly every time. I wish he wins accolades and awards the world over for his performance. The scene when "Komaram Bheemudo" comes made me extremely sad and the way it was acted by NTR made me cringe and also tear up.'
I loved the lyrics of "Komaram Bheemudo" and hats off to the lyricist 'Suddala Ashok Teja' for doing a wonderful job in keeping the words rooted in pure Telangana dialect and yet conveying an emotion of being born for mother earth.
The way the scenes were written especially the usage of animals around the interval was a surprise and kind of gave me goosebumps too, and I wish there were more such intelligent scenes.
I watched it in IMAX and could make out the digitization of animals, the train even large gatherings of people. Aesthetically, I loved "Bahubali-2" more than this film in terms of Visual Effects.
Music is one thing that I loved in this film and I shall be hooked to a few songs for a very long time while the song "Komaram Bheemudo" shall be on my playlist forever.
Overall, a definitely good one time watch in theatres. A 3/5 from me.
