After giving chartbuster hit 'Kandireega', actor Ram and filmmaker Santosh have paired for the second time. The director has relied on his strength picking up an action-comedy genre, which is a home turf for Ram. After 'Nannaku Prematho,' this is one such movie which shows bonding between father and son.

Is the duo's combo successful in creating the magic? We have to get into details to find out....

Story:

Surya (Ram) plays a smart street guy who not just loves but is 'obsessed' with his father Narayana Murthy (Satyaraj). How his love turns into hilarious situations are to be watched for. Murthy lands in trouble and is pestered by hooligans on the directions of powerful minister essayed by Rao Ramesh.

Murthy is a Government employee and is a stern follower of rules, discipline and doesn't mend ways for anyone. Things go awry, when Rao Ramesh wants one of the files to be get signed by Murthy. But to his dismay, Murthy doesn't pay heed to him despite Rao Ramesh being a minister. Irked minister then targets Surya's family.

How Surya saves his family and how wriggles out his dad from the goons clutches is the story about.

Analysis:

Santosh Srinivas has been successful in delivering the movie peppered with humor element. The first half is a delight to watch for the comic scenes turning into hilarious acts.

Raashi Khanna doesn't have a meaty role but brings ín the oomph quotient. The sizzling chemistry between Ram and Raashi works out well adding extra zing. Ram's acting acumen lifts the movie in first half and Rao Ramesh is always top-of-the-line for a film. But unfortunately, director went overboard with his emotions in second half.

The crescendo falls flat as everything is predictable. Ram fits the bill and justifies his role perfectly. Mostly shot in Vizag, the cameraperson brings us rich locales freezed in for the camera.

The music doesn't help and you don't find any catchy songs or more so you don’t even remember any wacky song.

Verdict:

A routine potboiler with a social message certainly will appeal the mass audience. Although it’s a paisa vasool but don’t expect to be out of the box.
